Olga reported that file descriptors opened with O_PATH do not work with
fstatfs(), found during further development of ksh93's thread support.
There is no reason to not allow O_PATH file descriptors here (fstatfs is
very much a path operation), so use "fdget_raw()". See commit
55815f7014 ("vfs: make O_PATH file descriptors usable for 'fstat()'")
for a very similar issue reported for fstat() by the same team.

It is because we returned the error number if the reference of the root was 0
when doing space relocation. It was not right here, because though the root
was dead(refs == 0), but the space it held still need be relocated, or we
could not remove the block group. So in this case, we should return the root
no matter it is dead or not.

Liu fixed part of this problem and unfortunately I steered him in slightly the
wrong direction and so didn't completely fix the problem. The problem is we
limit the size of the delalloc range we are looking for to max bytes and then we
try to lock that range. If we fail to lock the pages in that range we will
shrink the max bytes to a single page and re loop. However if our first page is
inside of the delalloc range then we will end up limiting the end of the range
to a period before our first page. This is illustrated below
[0 -------- delalloc range --------- 256mb]
[page]
So find_delalloc_range will return with delalloc_start as 0 and end as 128mb,
and then we will notice that delalloc_start < *start and adjust it up, but not
adjust delalloc_end up, so things go sideways. To fix this we need to not limit
the max bytes in find_delalloc_range, but in find_lock_delalloc_range and that
way we don't end up with this confusion. Thanks,

btrfs_rename was using the root of the old dir instead of the root of the new
dir when checking for a hash collision, so if you tried to move a file into a
subvol it would freak out because it would see the file you are trying to move
in its current root. This fixes the bug where this would fail
btrfs subvol create test1

The current implementation of worker threads in Btrfs has races in
worker stopping code, which cause all kinds of panics and lockups when
running btrfs/011 xfstest in a loop. The problem is that
btrfs_stop_workers is unsynchronized with respect to check_idle_worker,
check_busy_worker and __btrfs_start_workers.
E.g., check_idle_worker race flow:
btrfs_stop_workers(): check_idle_worker(aworker):
- grabs the lock
- splices the idle list into the
working list
- removes the first worker from the
working list
- releases the lock to wait for
its kthread's completion
- grabs the lock
- if aworker is on the working list,
moves aworker from the working list
to the idle list
- releases the lock
- grabs the lock
- puts the worker
- removes the second worker from the
working list
......
btrfs_stop_workers returns, aworker is on the idle list
FS is umounted, memory is freed
......
aworker is waken up, fireworks ensue
With this applied, I wasn't able to trigger the problem in 48 hours,
whereas previously I could reliably reproduce at least one of these
races within an hour.

The crash[1] is found by xfstests/generic/208 with "-o compress",
it's not reproduced everytime, but it does panic.
The bug is quite interesting, it's actually introduced by a recent commit
(573aecafca,
Btrfs: actually limit the size of delalloc range).
Btrfs implements delay allocation, so during writeback, we
(1) get a page A and lock it
(2) search the state tree for delalloc bytes and lock all pages within the range
(3) process the delalloc range, including find disk space and create
ordered extent and so on.
(4) submit the page A.
It runs well in normal cases, but if we're in a racy case, eg.
buffered compressed writes and aio-dio writes,
sometimes we may fail to lock all pages in the 'delalloc' range,
in which case, we need to fall back to search the state tree again with
a smaller range limit(max_bytes = PAGE_CACHE_SIZE - offset).
The mentioned commit has a side effect, that is, in the fallback case,
we can find delalloc bytes before the index of the page we already have locked,
so we're in the case of (delalloc_end <= *start) and return with (found > 0).
This ends with not locking delalloc pages but making ->writepage still
process them, and the crash happens.
This fixes it by just thinking that we find nothing and returning to caller
as the caller knows how to deal with it properly.

If we crash with a log, remount and recover that log, and then crash before we
can commit another transaction we will get transid verify errors on the next
mount. This is because we were not zero'ing out the log when we committed the
transaction after recovery. This is ok as long as we commit another transaction
at some point in the future, but if you abort or something else goes wrong you
can end up in this weird state because the recovery stuff says that the tree log
should have a generation+1 of the super generation, which won't be the case of
the transaction that was started for recovery. Fix this by removing the check
and _always_ zero out the log portion of the super when we commit a transaction.
This fixes the transid verify issues I was seeing with my force errors tests.

(cherry picked from commit 519ccb81ac)
The determination of whether a directory entry contains a dtype
field originally was dependent on the filesystem having CRCs
enabled. This meant that the format for dtype beign enabled could be
determined by checking the directory block magic number rather than
doing a feature bit check. This was useful in that it meant that we
didn't need to pass a struct xfs_mount around to functions that
were already supplied with a directory block header.
Unfortunately, the introduction of dtype fields into the v4
structure via a feature bit meant this "use the directory block
magic number" method of discriminating the dirent entry sizes is
broken. Hence we need to convert the places that use magic number
checks to use feature bit checks so that they work correctly and not
by chance.
The current code works on v4 filesystems only because the dirent
size roundup covers the extra byte needed by the dtype field in the
places where this problem occurs.

Doing dput(parent) is not valid in RCU walk mode. In RCU mode it would
probably be okay to update the parent flags, but it's actually not
necessary most of the time...
So only set the FUSE_I_ADVISE_RDPLUS flag on the parent when the entry was
recently initialized by READDIRPLUS.
This is achieved by setting FUSE_I_INIT_RDPLUS on entries added by
READDIRPLUS and only dropping out of RCU mode if this flag is set.
FUSE_I_INIT_RDPLUS is cleared once the FUSE_I_ADVISE_RDPLUS flag is set in
the parent.

Many NILFS2 users were reported about strange file system corruption
(for example):
NILFS: bad btree node (blocknr=185027): level = 0, flags = 0x0, nchildren = 768
NILFS error (device sda4): nilfs_bmap_last_key: broken bmap (inode number=11540)
But such error messages are consequence of file system's issue that takes
place more earlier. Fortunately, Jerome Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>
and Anton Eliasson <devel@antoneliasson.se> were reported about another
issue not so recently. These reports describe the issue with segctor
thread's crash:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000004c83
IP: nilfs_end_page_io+0x12/0xd0 [nilfs2]
Call Trace:
nilfs_segctor_do_construct+0xf25/0x1b20 [nilfs2]

nilfs_segctor_thread+0x122/0x3b0 [nilfs2]
kthread+0xc0/0xd0
ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0
These two issues have one reason. This reason can raise third issue
too. Third issue results in hanging of segctor thread with eating of
100% CPU.
REPRODUCING PATH:
One of the possible way or the issue reproducing was described by
Jermoe me Poulin <jeromepoulin@gmail.com>:
1. init S to get to single user mode.
2. sysrq+E to make sure only my shell is running
3. start network-manager to get my wifi connection up
4. login as root and launch "screen"
5. cd /boot/log/nilfs which is a ext3 mount point and can log when NILFS dies.
6. lscp | xz -9e > lscp.txt.xz
7. mount my snapshot using mount -o cp=3360839,ro /dev/vgUbuntu/root /mnt/nilfs
8. start a screen to dump /proc/kmsg to text file since rsyslog is killed
9. start a screen and launch strace -f -o find-cat.log -t find
/mnt/nilfs -type f -exec cat {} > /dev/null \;
10. start a screen and launch strace -f -o apt-get.log -t apt-get update
11. launch the last command again as it did not crash the first time
12. apt-get crashes
13. ps aux > ps-aux-crashed.log
13. sysrq+W
14. sysrq+E wait for everything to terminate
15. sysrq+SUSB
Simplified way of the issue reproducing is starting kernel compilation
task and "apt-get update" in parallel.
REPRODUCIBILITY:
The issue is reproduced not stable [60% - 80%]. It is very important to
have proper environment for the issue reproducing. The critical
conditions for successful reproducing:
(1) It should have big modified file by mmap() way.
(2) This file should have the count of dirty blocks are greater that
several segments in size (for example, two or three) from time to time
during processing.
(3) It should be intensive background activity of files modification
in another thread.
INVESTIGATION:
First of all, it is possible to see that the reason of crash is not valid
page address:
NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2100 bh->b_count 0, bh->b_blocknr 13895680, bh->b_size 13897727, bh->b_page 0000000000001a82
NILFS [nilfs_segctor_complete_write]:2101 segbuf->sb_segnum 6783
Moreover, value of b_page (0x1a82) is 6786. This value looks like segment
number. And b_blocknr with b_size values look like block numbers. So,
buffer_head's pointer points on not proper address value.
Detailed investigation of the issue is discovered such picture:

Usually, for every segment we collect dirty files in list. Then, dirty
blocks are gathered for every dirty file, prepared for write and
submitted by means of nilfs_segbuf_submit_bh() call. Finally, it takes
place complete write phase after calling nilfs_end_bio_write() on the
block layer. Buffers/pages are marked as not dirty on final phase and
processed files removed from the list of dirty files.
It is possible to see that we had three prepare_write and submit_bio
phases before segbuf_wait and complete_write phase. Moreover, segments
compete between each other for dirty blocks because on every iteration
of segments processing dirty buffer_heads are added in several lists of
payload_buffers:
[SEGMENT 6784]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880218bcdf50
[SEGMENT 6785]: bh->b_assoc_buffers.next ffff880218a0d5f8, bh->b_assoc_buffers.prev ffff880222cc7ee8
The next pointer is the same but prev pointer has changed. It means
that buffer_head has next pointer from one list but prev pointer from
another. Such modification can be made several times. And, finally, it
can be resulted in various issues: (1) segctor hanging, (2) segctor
crashing, (3) file system metadata corruption.
FIX:
This patch adds:
(1) setting of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_prepare_write()
for every proccessed dirty block;
(2) checking of BH_Async_Write flag in
nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() and
nilfs_lookup_dirty_node_buffers();
(3) clearing of BH_Async_Write flag in nilfs_segctor_complete_write(),
nilfs_abort_logs(), nilfs_forget_buffer(), nilfs_clear_dirty_page().

A high setting of max_map_count, and a process core-dumping with a large
enough vm_map_count could result in an NT_FILE note not being written,
and the kernel crashing immediately later because it has assumed
otherwise.
Reproduction of the oops-causing bug described here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/8/30/50
Rge ussue originated in commit 2aa362c49c ("coredump: extend core dump
note section to contain file names of mapped file") from Oct 4, 2012.
This patch make that section optional in that case. fill_files_note()
should signify the error, and also let the info struct in
elf_core_dump() be zero-initialized so that we can check for the
optionally written note.

Call nfs4_lookup_root_sec for each flavor returned by SECINFO_NO_NAME until

One example of a situation this fixes:

- server principal somehow gets deleted from KDC
- server still thinking krb is good, sends krb5 as first entry in
SECINFO_NO_NAME response
- client tries krb5, but this fails without even sending an RPC because

Dmitry Vyukov managed to trigger a case where aio_migratepage can cause a
use-after-free during teardown of the aio ring buffer's mapping. This turns
out to be caused by access to the ioctx's ring_pages via the migratepage
operation which was not being protected by any locks during ioctx freeing.
Use the address_space's private_lock to protect use and updates of the mapping's
private_data, and make ioctx teardown unlink the ioctx from the address space.

Commit f5ea1100 cleans up the disk to host conversions for
node directory entries, but because a variable is reused in
xfs_node_toosmall() the next node is not correctly found.
If the original node is small enough (<= 3/8 of the node size),
this change may incorrectly cause a node collapse when it should
not. That will cause an assert in xfstest generic/319:
Assertion failed: first <= last && last < BBTOB(bp->b_length),
file: /root/newest/xfs/fs/xfs/xfs_trans_buf.c, line: 569
Keep the original node header to get the correct forward node.
(When a node is considered for a merge with a sibling, it overwrites the
sibling pointers of the original incore nodehdr with the sibling's
pointers. This leads to loop considering the original node as a merge
candidate with itself in the second pass, and so it incorrectly
determines a merge should occur.)

After a fair number of xfstests runs, xfs/182 started to fail
regularly with a corrupted directory - a directory read verifier was
failing after recovery because it found a block with a XARM magic
number (remote attribute block) rather than a directory data block.
The first time I saw this repeated failure I did /something/ and the
problem went away, so I was never able to find the underlying
problem. Test xfs/182 failed again today, and I found the root
cause before I did /something else/ that made it go away.
Tracing indicated that the block in question was being correctly
logged, the log was being flushed by sync, but the buffer was not
being written back before the shutdown occurred. Tracing also
indicated that log recovery was also reading the block, but then
never writing it before log recovery invalidated the cache,
indicating that it was not modified by log recovery.
More detailed analysis of the corpse indicated that the filesystem
had a uuid of "a4131074-1872-4cac-9323-2229adbcb886" but the XARM
block had a uuid of "8f32f043-c3c9-e7f8-f947-4e7f989c05d3", which
indicated it was a block from an older filesystem. The reason that
log recovery didn't replay it was that the LSN in the XARM block was
larger than the LSN of the transaction being replayed, and so the
block was not overwritten by log recovery.
Hence, log recovery cant blindly trust the magic number and LSN in
the block - it must verify that it belongs to the filesystem being
recovered before using the LSN. i.e. if the UUIDs don't match, we
need to unconditionally recovery the change held in the log.
This patch was first tested on a block device that was repeatedly
causing xfs/182 to fail with the same failure on the same block with
the same directory read corruption signature (i.e. XARM block). It
did not fail, and hasn't failed since.
