Instead of always creating a huge (268K) deflate_workspace with the
maximum compression parameters (windowBits=15, memLevel=8), allow the
caller to obtain a smaller workspace by specifying smaller parameter
values.
For example, when capturing oops and panic reports to a medium with
limited capacity, such as NVRAM, compression may be the only way to
capture the whole report. In this case, a small workspace (24K works
fine) is a win, whether you allocate the workspace when you need it (i.e.,
during an oops or panic) or at boot time.
I've verified that this patch works with all accepted values of windowBits
(positive and negative), memLevel, and compression level.

Btrfs: break out of shrink_delalloc earlier

btrfs: fix dip leak
Btrfs: make sure not to return overlapping extents to fiemap
Btrfs: deal with short returns from copy_from_user
Btrfs: fix regressions in copy_from_user handling
Josef had changed shrink_delalloc to exit after three shrink
attempts, which wasn't quite enough because new writers could
race in and steal free space.
But it also fixed deadlocks and stalls as we tried to recover
delalloc reservations. The code was tweaked to loop 1024
times, and would reset the counter any time a small amount
of progress was made. This was too drastic, and with a
lot of writers we can end up stuck in shrink_delalloc forever.
The shrink_delalloc loop is fairly complex because the caller is looping
too, and the caller will go ahead and force a transaction commit to make
sure we reclaim space.
This reworks things to exit shrink_delalloc when we've forced some
writeback and the delalloc reservations have gone down. This means
the writeback has not just started but has also finished at
least some of the metadata changes required to reclaim delalloc
space.
If we've got this wrong, we're returning ENOSPC too early, which
is a big improvement over the current behavior of hanging the machine.
Test 224 in xfstests hammers on this nicely, and with 1000 writers
trying to fill a 1GB drive we get our first ENOSPC at 93% full. The
other writers are able to continue until we get 100%.
This is a worst case test for btrfs because the 1000 writers are doing
small IO, and the small FS size means we don't have a lot of room
for metadata chunks.

When copy_from_user is only able to copy some of the bytes we requested,
we may end up creating a partially up to date page. To avoid garbage in

Commit 914ee295af fixed deadlocks in
btrfs_file_write where we would catch page faults on pages we had
locked.
But, there were a few problems:
1) The x86-32 iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic code always fails to copy
data when the amount to copy is more than 4K and the offset to start
copying from is not page aligned. The result was btrfs_file_write
looping forever retrying the iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic
We deal with this by changing btrfs_file_write to drop down to single
page copies when iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic starts returning failure.
2) The btrfs_file_write code was leaking delalloc reservations when
iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic returned zero. The looping above would
result in the entire filesystem running out of delalloc reservations and
constantly trying to flush things to disk.
3) btrfs_file_write will lock down page cache pages, make sure
any writeback is finished, do the copy_from_user and then release them.
Before the loop runs we check the first and last pages in the write to
see if they are only being partially modified. If the start or end of
the write isn't aligned, we make sure the corresponding pages are
up to date so that we don't introduce garbage into the file.
With the copy_from_user changes, we're allowing the VM to reclaim the
pages after a partial update from copy_from_user, but we're not
making sure the page cache page is up to date when we loop around to
resume the write.
We deal with this by pushing the up to date checks down into the page
prep code. This fits better with how the rest of file_write works.

Btrfs device shrinking and balancing ends up reallocating all the blocks
in order to allow COW to move them to new destinations. It is somewhat
awkward in terms of ENOSPC because most of the enospc code is built
around the idea that some operation on a reference counted tree triggers
allocations in the non-reference counted trees.
This commit changes the balancing code to deal with enospc by trying to
allocate a new chunk. If that allocation succeeds, we go ahead and
retry whatever failed due to enospc.

Commit bf5fc093c5 refactored
btrfs_ioctl_space_info() and introduced several security issues.
space_args.space_slots is an unsigned 64-bit type controlled by a
possibly unprivileged caller. The comparison as a signed int type
allows providing values that are treated as negative and cause the
subsequent allocation size calculation to wrap, or be truncated to 0.
By providing a size that's truncated to 0, kmalloc() will return
ZERO_SIZE_PTR. It's also possible to provide a value smaller than the
slot count. The subsequent loop ignores the allocation size when
copying data in, resulting in a heap overflow or write to ZERO_SIZE_PTR.
The fix changes the slot count type and comparison typecast to u64,
which prevents truncation or signedness errors, and also ensures that we
don't copy more data than we've allocated in the subsequent loop. Note
that zero-size allocations are no longer possible since there is already
an explicit check for space_args.space_slots being 0 and truncation of
this value is no longer an issue.

Btrfs tracks uptodate state in an rbtree as well as in the
page bits. This is supposed to enable us to use block sizes other than
the page size, but there are a few parts still missing before that
completely works.
But, our readpage routine trusts this additional range based tracking
of uptodateness, much in the same way the buffer head up to date bits
are trusted for the other filesystems.
The problem is that sometimes we need to allocate memory in order to
split records in the rbtree, even when we are just clearing bits. This
can be difficult when our clearing function is called GFP_ATOMIC, which
can happen in the releasepage path.
So, what happens today looks like this:
releasepage called with GFP_ATOMIC
btrfs_releasepage calls clear_extent_bit
clear_extent_bit fails to allocate ram, leaving the up to date bit set
btrfs_releasepage returns success
The end result is the page being gone, but btrfs thinking the range is
up to date. Later on if someone tries to read that same page, the
btrfs readpage code will return immediately thinking the page is already
up to date.
This commit fixes things to fail the releasepage when we can't clear the
extent state bits. It covers both data pages and metadata tree blocks.
Signed-off-by: Chris Mason <chris.mason@oracle.com>
There is a race where btrfs_releasepage can drop the
page->private contents just as alloc_extent_buffer is setting
up pages for metadata. Because of how the Btrfs page flags work,
this results in us skipping the crc on the page during IO.
This patch sovles the race by waiting until after the extent buffer
is inserted into the radix tree before it sets page private.

This has been resulting in a BUT_ON(ret) after btrfs_reserve_extent in
btrfs_cow_file_range. The reason is we don't actually calculate the bytes_super
for a block group until we go to cache it, which means that the space_info can
hand out reservations for space that it doesn't actually have, and we can run
out of data space. This is also a problem if you are using space caching since
we don't ever calculate bytes_super for the block groups. So instead everytime
we read a block group call exclude_super_stripes, which calculates the
bytes_super for the block group so it can be left out of the space_info. Then
whenever caching completes we just call free_excluded_extents so that the super
excluded extents are freed up. Also if we are unmounting and we hit any block
groups that haven't been cached we still need to call free_excluded_extents to
make sure things are cleaned up properly. Thanks,

SELinux would like to implement a new labeling behavior of newly created
inodes. We currently label new inodes based on the parent and the creating
process. This new behavior would also take into account the name of the
new object when deciding the new label. This is not the (supposed) full path,
just the last component of the path.
This is very useful because creating /etc/shadow is different than creating
/etc/passwd but the kernel hooks are unable to differentiate these
operations. We currently require that userspace realize it is doing some
difficult operation like that and than userspace jumps through SELinux hoops
to get things set up correctly. This patch does not implement new
behavior, that is obviously contained in a seperate SELinux patch, but it
does pass the needed name down to the correct LSM hook. If no such name
exists it is fine to pass NULL.

We call use_block_rsv right before we make an allocation in order to make sure
we have enough space. Now normally people have called btrfs_start_transaction()
with the appropriate amount of space that we need, so we just use some of that
pre-reserved space and move along happily. The problem is where people use
btrfs_join_transaction(), which doesn't actually reserve any space. So we try
and reserve space here, but we cannot flush delalloc, so this forces us to
return -ENOSPC when in reality we have plenty of space. The most common symptom
is seeing a bunch of "couldn't dirty inode" messages in syslog. With
xfstests 224 we end up falling back to start_transaction and then doing all the
flush delalloc stuff which causes to hang for a very long time.
So instead steal from the global reserve, which is what this is meant for
anyway. With this patch and the other 2 I have sent xfstests 224 now passes

When we do btrfs_block_rsv_release, if global_block_rsv is not full we will
release all the extra bytes to global_block_rsv, even if it's only a little
short of the amount of space that we need to reserve. This causes us to starve
ourselves of reservable space during the transaction which will force us to
shrink delalloc bytes and commit the transaction more often than we should. So
instead just add the amount of bytes we need to add to the global reserve so
reserved == size, and then add the rest back into the space_info for general
use. Thanks,
