[ Upstream commit 2a6ca4baed620303d414934aa1b7b0a8e7bab05f ]

There's an overflow bug in the realtime allocator.  If the rt volume is
large enough to handle a single allocation request that is larger than
the maximum bmap extent length and the rt bitmap ends exactly on a
bitmap block boundary, it's possible that the near allocator will try to
check the freeness of a range that extends past the end of the bitmap.
This fails with a corruption error and shuts down the fs.

Therefore, constrain maxlen so that the range scan cannot run off the
end of the rt bitmap.

<title>xfs: fix high key handling in the rt allocator's query_range function</title>

[ Upstream commit d88850bd5516a77c6f727e8b6cefb64e0cc929c7 ]

Fix some off-by-one errors in xfs_rtalloc_query_range.  The highest key
in the realtime bitmap is always one less than the number of rt extents,
which means that the key clamp at the start of the function is wrong.
The 4th argument to xfs_rtfind_forw is the highest rt extent that we
want to probe, which means that passing 1 less than the high key is
wrong.  Finally, drop the rem variable that controls the loop because we
can compare the iteration point (rtstart) against the high key directly.

The sordid history of this function is that the original commit (fb3c3)
incorrectly passed (high_rec-&gt;ar_startblock - 1) as the 'limit' parameter
to xfs_rtfind_forw.  This was wrong because the "high key" is supposed
to be the largest key for which the caller wants result rows, not the
key for the first row that could possibly be outside the range that the
caller wants to see.

A subsequent attempt (8ad56) to strengthen the parameter checking added
incorrect clamping of the parameters to the number of rt blocks in the
system (despite the bitmap functions all taking units of rt extents) to
avoid querying ranges past the end of rt bitmap file but failed to fix
the incorrect _rtfind_forw parameter.  The original _rtfind_forw
parameter error then survived the conversion of the startblock and
blockcount fields to rt extents (a0e5c), and the most recent off-by-one
fix (a3a37) thought it was patching a problem when the end of the rt
volume is not in use, but none of these fixes actually solved the
original problem that the author was confused about the "limit" argument
to xfs_rtfind_forw.

Sadly, all four of these patches were written by this author and even
his own usage of this function and rt testing were inadequate to get
this fixed quickly.

[ Upstream commit 8ffa90e1145c70c7ac47f14b59583b2296d89e72 ]

Refactor xfs_getfsmap to improve its performance: instead of indirectly
calling a function that copies one record to userspace at a time, create
a shadow buffer in the kernel and copy the whole array once at the end.
On the author's computer, this reduces the runtime on his /home by ~20%.

This also eliminates a deadlock when running GETFSMAP against the
realtime device.  The current code locks the rtbitmap to create
fsmappings and copies them into userspace, having not released the
rtbitmap lock.  If the userspace buffer is an mmap of a sparse file that
itself resides on the realtime device, the write page fault will recurse
into the fs for allocation, which will deadlock on the rtbitmap lock.

[ Upstream commit 671459676ab0e1d371c8d6b184ad1faa05b6941e ]

Nathan popped up on #xfs and pointed out that we fail to handle
finobt btree blocks in xlog_recover_get_buf_lsn(). This means they
always fall through the entire magic number matching code to "recover
immediately". Whilst most of the time this is the correct behaviour,
occasionally it will be incorrect and could potentially overwrite
more recent metadata because we don't check the LSN in the on disk
metadata at all.

This bug has been present since the finobt was first introduced, and
is a potential cause of the occasional xfs_iget_check_free_state()
failures we see that indicate that the inode btree state does not
match the on disk inode state.

[ Upstream commit 5ffce3cc22a0e89813ed0c7162a68b639aef9ab6 ]

Commit 5833112df7e9 tried to make it so that a remap operation would
force the log out to disk if the filesystem is mounted with mandatory
synchronous writes.  Unfortunately, that commit failed to handle the
case where the inode or the file descriptor require mandatory
synchronous writes.

Refactor the check into into a helper that will look for all three
conditions, and now we can treat reflink just like any other synchronous
write.

<title>xfs: fix off-by-one in inode alloc block reservation calculation</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 657f101930bc6c5b41bd7d6c22565c4302a80d33 ]

The inode chunk allocation transaction reserves inobt_maxlevels-1
blocks to accommodate a full split of the inode btree. A full split
requires an allocation for every existing level and a new root
block, which means inobt_maxlevels is the worst case block
requirement for a transaction that inserts to the inobt. This can
lead to a transaction block reservation overrun when tmpfile
creation allocates an inode chunk and expands the inobt to its
maximum depth. This problem has been observed in conjunction with
overlayfs, which makes frequent use of tmpfiles internally.

The existing reservation code goes back as far as the Linux git repo
history (v2.6.12). It was likely never observed as a problem because
the traditional file/directory creation transactions also include
worst case block reservation for directory modifications, which most
likely is able to make up for a single block deficiency in the inode
allocation portion of the calculation. tmpfile support is relatively
more recent (v3.15), less heavily used, and only includes the inode
allocation block reservation as tmpfiles aren't linked into the
directory tree on creation.

Fix up the inode alloc block reservation macro and a couple of the
block allocator minleft parameters that enforce an allocation to
leave enough free blocks in the AG for a full inobt split.

commit b17164e258e3888d376a7434415013175d637377 upstream.

When running in a dax mode, if the user maps a page with MAP_PRIVATE and
PROT_WRITE, the xfs filesystem would incorrectly update ctime and mtime
when the user hits a COW fault.

This breaks building of the Linux kernel.  How to reproduce:

 1. extract the Linux kernel tree on dax-mounted xfs filesystem
 2. run make clean
 3. run make -j12
 4. run make -j12

at step 4, make would incorrectly rebuild the whole kernel (although it
was already built in step 3).

The reason for the breakage is that almost all object files depend on
objtool.  When we run objtool, it takes COW page fault on its .data
section, and these faults will incorrectly update the timestamp of the
objtool binary.  The updated timestamp causes make to rebuild the whole
tree.
