commit b06c4bf5c874a57254b197f53ddf588e7a24a2bf upstream.

In the kernel 4.2 merge window we had a big changes to the implementation
of delayed references and qgroups which made the no_quota field of delayed
references not used anymore. More specifically the no_quota field is not
used anymore as of:

  commit 0ed4792af0e8 ("btrfs: qgroup: Switch to new extent-oriented qgroup mechanism.")

Leaving the no_quota field actually prevents delayed references from
getting merged, which in turn cause the following BUG_ON(), at
fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c, to be hit when qgroups are enabled:

  static int run_delayed_tree_ref(...)
  {
     (...)
     BUG_ON(node-&gt;ref_mod != 1);
     (...)
  }

This happens on a scenario like the following:

  1) Ref1 bytenr X, action = BTRFS_ADD_DELAYED_REF, no_quota = 1, added.

  2) Ref2 bytenr X, action = BTRFS_DROP_DELAYED_REF, no_quota = 0, added.
     It's not merged with Ref1 because Ref1-&gt;no_quota != Ref2-&gt;no_quota.

  3) Ref3 bytenr X, action = BTRFS_ADD_DELAYED_REF, no_quota = 1, added.
     It's not merged with the reference at the tail of the list of refs
     for bytenr X because the reference at the tail, Ref2 is incompatible
     due to Ref2-&gt;no_quota != Ref3-&gt;no_quota.

  4) Ref4 bytenr X, action = BTRFS_DROP_DELAYED_REF, no_quota = 0, added.
     It's not merged with the reference at the tail of the list of refs
     for bytenr X because the reference at the tail, Ref3 is incompatible
     due to Ref3-&gt;no_quota != Ref4-&gt;no_quota.

  5) We run delayed references, trigger merging of delayed references,
     through __btrfs_run_delayed_refs() -&gt; btrfs_merge_delayed_refs().

  6) Ref1 and Ref3 are merged as Ref1-&gt;no_quota = Ref3-&gt;no_quota and
     all other conditions are satisfied too. So Ref1 gets a ref_mod
     value of 2.

  7) Ref2 and Ref4 are merged as Ref2-&gt;no_quota = Ref4-&gt;no_quota and
     all other conditions are satisfied too. So Ref2 gets a ref_mod
     value of 2.

  8) Ref1 and Ref2 aren't merged, because they have different values
     for their no_quota field.

  9) Delayed reference Ref1 is picked for running (select_delayed_ref()
     always prefers references with an action == BTRFS_ADD_DELAYED_REF).
     So run_delayed_tree_ref() is called for Ref1 which triggers the
     BUG_ON because Ref1-&gt;red_mod != 1 (equals 2).

So fix this by removing the no_quota field, as it's not used anymore as
of commit 0ed4792af0e8 ("btrfs: qgroup: Switch to new extent-oriented
qgroup mechanism.").

The use of no_quota was also buggy in at least two places:

1) At delayed-refs.c:btrfs_add_delayed_tree_ref() - we were setting
   no_quota to 0 instead of 1 when the following condition was true:
   is_fstree(ref_root) || !fs_info-&gt;quota_enabled

2) At extent-tree.c:__btrfs_inc_extent_ref() - we were attempting to
   reset a node's no_quota when the condition "!is_fstree(root_objectid)
   || !root-&gt;fs_info-&gt;quota_enabled" was true but we did it only in
   an unused local stack variable, that is, we never reset the no_quota
   value in the node itself.

This fixes the remainder of problems several people have been having when
running delayed references, mostly while a balance is running in parallel,
on a 4.2+ kernel.

Very special thanks to Stéphane Lesimple for helping debugging this issue
and testing this fix on his multi terabyte filesystem (which took more
than one day to balance alone, plus fsck, etc).

Also, this fixes deadlock issue when using the clone ioctl with qgroups
enabled, as reported by Elias Probst in the mailing list. The deadlock
happens because after calling btrfs_insert_empty_item we have our path
holding a write lock on a leaf of the fs/subvol tree and then before
releasing the path we called check_ref() which did backref walking, when
qgroups are enabled, and tried to read lock the same leaf. The trace for
this case is the following:

  INFO: task systemd-nspawn:6095 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
  (...)
  Call Trace:

    [&lt;ffffffff863ed9b0&gt;] btrfs_ioctl+0xabc/0x25cb
  (...)

The problem goes away by eleminating check_ref(), which no longer is
needed as its purpose was to get a value for the no_quota field of
a delayed reference (this patch removes the no_quota field as mentioned
earlier).

<content type='text'>
commit 1d512cb77bdbda80f0dd0620a3b260d697fd581d upstream.

If we are using the NO_HOLES feature, we have a tiny time window when
running delalloc for a nodatacow inode where we can race with a concurrent
link or xattr add operation leading to a BUG_ON.

This happens because at run_delalloc_nocow() we end up casting a leaf item
of type BTRFS_INODE_[REF|EXTREF]_KEY or of type BTRFS_XATTR_ITEM_KEY to a
file extent item (struct btrfs_file_extent_item) and then analyse its
extent type field, which won't match any of the expected extent types
(values BTRFS_FILE_EXTENT_[REG|PREALLOC|INLINE]) and therefore trigger an
explicit BUG_ON(1).

The following sequence diagram shows how the race happens when running a
no-cow dellaloc range [4K, 8K[ for inode 257 and we have the following
neighbour leafs:

             Leaf X (has N items)                    Leaf Y

 [ ... (257 INODE_ITEM 0) (257 INODE_REF 256) ]  [ (257 EXTENT_DATA 8192), ... ]
              slot N - 2         slot N - 1              slot 0

 (Note the implicit hole for inode 257 regarding the [0, 8K[ range)

       CPU 1                                         CPU 2

 run_dealloc_nocow()
   btrfs_lookup_file_extent()
     --&gt; searches for a key with value
         (257 EXTENT_DATA 4096) in the
         fs/subvol tree
     --&gt; returns us a path with
         path-&gt;nodes[0] == leaf X and
         path-&gt;slots[0] == N

   because path-&gt;slots[0] is &gt;=
   btrfs_header_nritems(leaf X), it
   calls btrfs_next_leaf()

   btrfs_next_leaf()
     --&gt; releases the path

                                              hard link added to our inode,
                                              with key (257 INODE_REF 500)
                                              added to the end of leaf X,
                                              so leaf X now has N + 1 keys

     --&gt; searches for the key
         (257 INODE_REF 256), because
         it was the last key in leaf X
         before it released the path,
         with path-&gt;keep_locks set to 1

     --&gt; ends up at leaf X again and
         it verifies that the key
         (257 INODE_REF 256) is no longer
         the last key in the leaf, so it
         returns with path-&gt;nodes[0] ==
         leaf X and path-&gt;slots[0] == N,
         pointing to the new item with
         key (257 INODE_REF 500)

   the loop iteration of run_dealloc_nocow()
   does not break out the loop and continues
   because the key referenced in the path
   at path-&gt;nodes[0] and path-&gt;slots[0] is
   for inode 257, its type is &lt; BTRFS_EXTENT_DATA_KEY
   and its offset (500) is less then our delalloc
   range's end (8192)

   the item pointed by the path, an inode reference item,
   is (incorrectly) interpreted as a file extent item and
   we get an invalid extent type, leading to the BUG_ON(1):

   if (extent_type == BTRFS_FILE_EXTENT_REG ||
      extent_type == BTRFS_FILE_EXTENT_PREALLOC) {
       (...)
   } else if (extent_type == BTRFS_FILE_EXTENT_INLINE) {
       (...)
   } else {
       BUG_ON(1)
   }

The same can happen if a xattr is added concurrently and ends up having
a key with an offset smaller then the delalloc's range end.

So fix this by skipping keys with a type smaller than
BTRFS_EXTENT_DATA_KEY.

<title>Btrfs: fix truncation of compressed and inlined extents</title>

commit 0305cd5f7fca85dae392b9ba85b116896eb7c1c7 upstream.

When truncating a file to a smaller size which consists of an inline
extent that is compressed, we did not discard (or made unusable) the
data between the new file size and the old file size, wasting metadata
space and allowing for the truncated data to be leaked and the data
corruption/loss mentioned below.
We were also not correctly decrementing the number of bytes used by the
inode, we were setting it to zero, giving a wrong report for callers of
the stat(2) syscall. The fsck tool also reported an error about a mismatch
between the nbytes of the file versus the real space used by the file.

Now because we weren't discarding the truncated region of the file, it
was possible for a caller of the clone ioctl to actually read the data
that was truncated, allowing for a security breach without requiring root
access to the system, using only standard filesystem operations. The
scenario is the following:

   1) User A creates a file which consists of an inline and compressed
      extent with a size of 2000 bytes - the file is not accessible to
      any other users (no read, write or execution permission for anyone
      else);

   2) The user truncates the file to a size of 1000 bytes;

   3) User A makes the file world readable;

   4) User B creates a file consisting of an inline extent of 2000 bytes;

   5) User B issues a clone operation from user A's file into its own
      file (using a length argument of 0, clone the whole range);

   6) User B now gets to see the 1000 bytes that user A truncated from
      its file before it made its file world readbale. User B also lost
      the bytes in the range [1000, 2000[ bytes from its own file, but
      that might be ok if his/her intention was reading stale data from
      user A that was never supposed to be public.

Note that this contrasts with the case where we truncate a file from 2000
bytes to 1000 bytes and then truncate it back from 1000 to 2000 bytes. In
this case reading any byte from the range [1000, 2000[ will return a value
of 0x00, instead of the original data.

This problem exists since the clone ioctl was added and happens both with
and without my recent data loss and file corruption fixes for the clone
ioctl (patch "Btrfs: fix file corruption and data loss after cloning
inline extents").

So fix this by truncating the compressed inline extents as we do for the
non-compressed case, which involves decompressing, if the data isn't already
in the page cache, compressing the truncated version of the extent, writing
the compressed content into the inline extent and then truncate it.

The following test case for fstests reproduces the problem. In order for
the test to pass both this fix and my previous fix for the clone ioctl
that forbids cloning a smaller inline extent into a larger one,
which is titled "Btrfs: fix file corruption and data loss after cloning
inline extents", are needed. Without that other fix the test fails in a
different way that does not leak the truncated data, instead part of
destination file gets replaced with zeroes (because the destination file
has a larger inline extent than the source).

  seq=`basename $0`
  seqres=$RESULT_DIR/$seq
  echo "QA output created by $seq"
  tmp=/tmp/$$
  status=1	# failure is the default!
  trap "_cleanup; exit \$status" 0 1 2 3 15

      rm -f $tmp.*

  # Create our test files. File foo is going to be the source of a clone operation
  # and consists of a single inline extent with an uncompressed size of 512 bytes,
  # while file bar consists of a single inline extent with an uncompressed size of
  # 256 bytes. For our test's purpose, it's important that file bar has an inline
  # extent with a size smaller than foo's inline extent.

  # Now durably persist all metadata and data. We do this to make sure that we get
  # on disk an inline extent with a size of 512 bytes for file foo.
  sync

  # Now truncate our file foo to a smaller size. Because it consists of a
  # compressed and inline extent, btrfs did not shrink the inline extent to the
  # new size (if the extent was not compressed, btrfs would shrink it to 128
  # bytes), it only updates the inode's i_size to 128 bytes.
  $XFS_IO_PROG -c "truncate 128" $SCRATCH_MNT/foo

  # Now clone foo's inline extent into bar.
  # This clone operation should fail with errno EOPNOTSUPP because the source
  # file consists only of an inline extent and the file's size is smaller than
  # the inline extent of the destination (128 bytes &lt; 256 bytes). However the
  # clone ioctl was not prepared to deal with a file that has a size smaller
  # than the size of its inline extent (something that happens only for compressed
  # inline extents), resulting in copying the full inline extent from the source
  # file into the destination file.
  #
  # Note that btrfs' clone operation for inline extents consists of removing the
  # inline extent from the destination inode and copy the inline extent from the
  # source inode into the destination inode, meaning that if the destination
  # inode's inline extent is larger (N bytes) than the source inode's inline
  # extent (M bytes), some bytes (N - M bytes) will be lost from the destination
  # file. Btrfs could copy the source inline extent's data into the destination's
  # inline extent so that we would not lose any data, but that's currently not
  # done due to the complexity that would be needed to deal with such cases
  # (specially when one or both extents are compressed), returning EOPNOTSUPP, as
  # it's normally not a very common case to clone very small files (only case
  # where we get inline extents) and copying inline extents does not save any
  # space (unlike for normal, non-inlined extents).
  $CLONER_PROG -s 0 -d 0 -l 0 $SCRATCH_MNT/foo $SCRATCH_MNT/bar

  # Now because the above clone operation used to succeed, and due to foo's inline
  # extent not being shinked by the truncate operation, our file bar got the whole
  # inline extent copied from foo, making us lose the last 128 bytes from bar
  # which got replaced by the bytes in range [128, 256[ from foo before foo was
  # truncated - in other words, data loss from bar and being able to read old and
  # stale data from foo that should not be possible to read anymore through normal
  # filesystem operations. Contrast with the case where we truncate a file from a
  # size N to a smaller size M, truncate it back to size N and then read the range
  # [M, N[, we should always get the value 0x00 for all the bytes in that range.

  # We expected the clone operation to fail with errno EOPNOTSUPP and therefore
  # not modify our file's bar data/metadata. So its content should be 256 bytes
  # long with all bytes having the value 0xbb.
  #
  # Without the btrfs bug fix, the clone operation succeeded and resulted in
  # leaking truncated data from foo, the bytes that belonged to its range
  # [128, 256[, and losing data from bar in that same range. So reading the
  # file gave us the following content:
  #
  # 0000000 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1 a1
  # *
  # 0000200 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a 2a
  # *
  # 0000400
  echo "File bar's content after the clone operation:"
  od -t x1 $SCRATCH_MNT/bar

  # Also because the foo's inline extent was not shrunk by the truncate
  # operation, btrfs' fsck, which is run by the fstests framework everytime a
  # test completes, failed reporting the following error:
  #
  #  root 5 inode 257 errors 400, nbytes wrong

  status=0

This means that the inode had non-zero "outstanding extents" during
eviction. This occurs because, during direct I/O a task which successfully
used up its reserved data space would set BTRFS_INODE_DIO_READY bit and does
not clear the bit after finishing the DIO write. A future DIO write could
actually fail and the unused reserve space won't be freed because of the
previously set BTRFS_INODE_DIO_READY bit.

Clearing the BTRFS_INODE_DIO_READY bit in btrfs_direct_IO() caused the
following issue,

Hence this commit introduces "struct btrfs_dio_data" to track the usage of
reserved data space. The remaining unused "reserve space" can now be freed
reliably.

<title>btrfs: skip waiting on ordered range for special files</title>
<updated>2015-09-15T01:21:08Z</updated>

<id>urn:sha1:a30e577c96f59b1e1678ea5462432b09bf7d5cbc</id>
<content type='text'>
In btrfs_evict_inode, we properly truncate the page cache for evicted
inodes but then we call btrfs_wait_ordered_range for every inode as well.
It's the right thing to do for regular files but results in incorrect
behavior for device inodes for block devices.

filemap_fdatawrite_range gets called with inode-&gt;i_mapping which gets
resolved to the block device inode before getting passed to
wbc_attach_fdatawrite_inode and ultimately to inode_to_bdi.  What happens
next depends on whether there's an open file handle associated with the
inode.  If there is, we write to the block device, which is unexpected
behavior.  If there isn't, we through normally and inode-&gt;i_data is used.
We can also end up racing against open/close which can result in crashes
when i_mapping points to a block device inode that has been closed.

Since there can't be any page cache associated with special file inodes,
it's safe to skip the btrfs_wait_ordered_range call entirely and avoid
the problem.

Pull btrfs cleanups and fixes from Chris Mason:
 "These are small cleanups, and also some fixes for our async worker
  thread initialization.

  I was having some trouble testing these, but it ended up being a
  combination of changing around my test servers and a shiny new
  schedule while atomic from the new start/finish_plug in
  writeback_sb_inodes().

  That one only hits on btrfs raid5/6 or MD raid10, and if I wasn't
  changing a bunch of things in my test setup at once it would have been
  really clear.  Fix for writeback_sb_inodes() on the way as well"

 "This has Jeff Mahoney's long standing trim patch that fixes corners
  where trims were missing.  Omar has some raid5/6 fixes, especially for

  Zhao Lie continues cleaning and fixing things, this series fixes some
  really hard to hit corners in xfstests.  I had to pull it last merge
  window due to some deadlocks, but those are now resolved.

  I added support for Tejun's new blkio controllers.  It seems to work

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This first core part of the block IO changes contains:

   - Cleanup of the bio IO error signaling from Christoph.  We used to
     rely on the uptodate bit and passing around of an error, now we
     store the error in the bio itself.

   - Improvement of the above from myself, by shrinking the bio size
     down again to fit in two cachelines on x86-64.

   - Revert of the max_hw_sectors cap removal from a revision again,
     from Jeff Moyer.  This caused performance regressions in various
     tests.  Reinstate the limit, bump it to a more reasonable size
     instead.

   - Make /sys/block/&lt;dev&gt;/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
     Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
     when deleting files.  Enable the admin to configure the size down.
     We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX
     sectors.

   - Improvement of the SGP gaps logic from Keith Busch.

   - Enable the block core to handle arbitrarily sized bios, which
     enables a nice simplification of bio_add_page() (which is an IO hot
     path).  From Kent.

   - Improvements to the partition io stats accounting, making it
     faster.  From Ming Lei.

   - Also from Ming Lei, a basic fixup for overflow of the sysfs pending
     file in blk-mq, as well as a fix for a blk-mq timeout race
     condition.

   - Ming Lin has been carrying Kents above mentioned patches forward
     for a while, and testing them.  Ming also did a few fixes around
     that.

   - Sasha Levin found and fixed a use-after-free problem introduced by
     the bio-&gt;bi_error changes from Christoph.

   - Small blk cgroup cleanup from Viresh Kumar"
