Delalloc write journal reservations only reserve 1 credit,
to update the inode if necessary. However, it may happen
once in a filesystem's lifetime that a file will cross
the 2G threshold, and require the LARGE_FILE feature to
be set in the superblock as well, if it was not set already.
This overruns the transaction reservation, and can be
demonstrated simply on any ext4 filesystem without the LARGE_FILE
feature already set:
dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=1 seek=2147483646 count=1 \
conv=notrunc of=testfile
sync
dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=1 seek=2147483647 count=1 \
conv=notrunc of=testfile
leads to:
EXT4-fs: ext4_do_update_inode:4296: aborting transaction: error 28 in __ext4_handle_dirty_super
EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_do_update_inode:4301: error 28
EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_reserve_inode_write:4757: Readonly filesystem
EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_dirty_inode:4876: error 28
EXT4-fs error (device loop0) in ext4_da_write_end:2685: error 28
Adjust the number of credits based on whether the flag is
already set, and whether the current write may extend past the
LARGE_FILE limit.

If there is a corrupted file system which has directory entries that
point at reserved, metadata inodes, prohibit them from being used by
treating them the same way we treat Boot Loader inodes --- that is,
mark them to be bad inodes. This prohibits them from being opened,
deleted, or modified via chmod, chown, utimes, etc.
In particular, this prevents a corrupted file system which has a
directory entry which points at the journal inode from being deleted
and its blocks released, after which point Much Hilarity Ensues.

The boot loader inode (inode #5) should never be visible in the
directory hierarchy, but it's possible if the file system is corrupted
that there will be a directory entry that points at inode #5. In
order to avoid accidentally trashing it, when such a directory inode
is opened, the inode will be marked as a bad inode, so that it's not
possible to modify (or read) the inode from userspace.
Unfortunately, when we unlink this (invalid/illegal) directory entry,
we will put the bad inode on the ophan list, and then when try to
unlink the directory, we don't actually remove the bad inode from the
orphan list before freeing in-memory inode structure. This means the
in-memory orphan list is corrupted, leading to a kernel oops.
In addition, avoid truncating a bad inode in ext4_destroy_inode(),
since truncating the boot loader inode is not a smart thing to do.

Currently punch hole code on files with direct/indirect mapping has some
problems which may lead to a data loss. For example (from Jan Kara):
fallocate -n -p 10240000 4096
will punch the range 10240000 - 12632064 instead of the range 1024000 -
10244096.
Also the code is a bit weird and it's not using infrastructure provided
by indirect.c, but rather creating it's own way.
This patch fixes the issues as well as making the operation to run 4
times faster from my testing (punching out 60GB file). It uses similar
approach used in ext4_ind_truncate() which takes advantage of
ext4_free_branches() function.
Also rename the ext4_free_hole_blocks() to something more sensible, like
the equivalent we have for extent mapped files. Call it
ext4_ind_remove_space().
This has been tested mostly with fsx and some xfstests which are testing
punch hole but does not require unwritten extents which are not
supported with direct/indirect mapping. Not problems showed up even with
1024k block size.

This commit tries to fix a bug that we can't read symlink properly with
inline data feature when the length of symlink is greater than 60 bytes
but less than extra space.
The key issue is in ext4_inode_is_fast_symlink() that it doesn't check
whether or not an inode has inline data. When the user creates a new
symlink, an inode will be allocated with MAY_INLINE_DATA flag. Then
symlink will be stored in ->i_block and extended attribute space. In
the mean time, this inode is with inline data flag. After remounting
it, ext4_inode_is_fast_symlink() function thinks that this inode is a
fast symlink so that the data in ->i_block is copied to the user, and
the data in extra space is trimmed. In fact this inode should be as a
normal symlink.
The following script can hit this bug.
#!/bin/bash
cd ${MNT}
filename=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789
rm -rf test
mkdir test
cd test
echo "hello" >$filename
ln -s $filename symlinkfile
cd
sudo umount /mnt/sda1
sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1
readlink /mnt/sda1/test/symlinkfile
After applying this patch, it will break the assumption in e2fsck
because the original implementation doesn't want to support symlink
with inline data.

When we perform a data integrity sync we tag all the dirty pages with
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE at start of ext4_da_writepages. Later we check
for this tag in write_cache_pages_da and creates a struct
mpage_da_data containing contiguously indexed pages tagged with this
tag and sync these pages with a call to mpage_da_map_and_submit. This
process is done in while loop until all the PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE
pages are synced. We also do journal start and stop in each iteration.
journal_stop could initiate journal commit which would call
ext4_writepage which in turn will call ext4_bio_write_page even for
delayed OR unwritten buffers. When ext4_bio_write_page is called for
such buffers, even though it does not sync them but it clears the
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE of the corresponding page and hence these pages
are also not synced by the currently running data integrity sync. We
will end up with dirty pages although sync is completed.
This could cause a potential data loss when the sync call is followed
by a truncate_pagecache call, which is exactly the case in
collapse_range. (It will cause generic/127 failure in xfstests)
To avoid this issue, we can use set_page_writeback_keepwrite instead of
set_page_writeback, which doesn't clear TOWRITE tag.

Currently in ext4 there is quite a mess when it comes to naming
unwritten extents. Sometimes we call it uninitialized and sometimes we
refer to it as unwritten.
The right name for the extent which has been allocated but does not
contain any written data is _unwritten_. Other file systems are
using this name consistently, even the buffer head state refers to it as
unwritten. We need to fix this confusion in ext4.
This commit changes every reference to an uninitialized extent (meaning
allocated but unwritten) to unwritten extent. This includes comments,
function names and variable names. It even covers abbreviation of the
word uninitialized (such as uninit) and some misspellings.
This commit does not change any of the code paths at all. This has been
confirmed by comparing md5sums of the assembly code of each object file
after all the function names were stripped from it.

Currently EXT4_MAP_UNINIT is used in dioread_nolock case to mark the
cases where we're using dioread_nolock and we're writing into either
unallocated, or unwritten extent, because we need to make sure that
any DIO write into that inode will wait for the extent conversion.
However EXT4_MAP_UNINIT is not only entirely misleading name but also
unnecessary because we can check for EXT4_MAP_UNWRITTEN in the
dioread_nolock case instead.

When we try to get 2^32-1 block of the file which has the extent
(ee_block=2^32-2, ee_len=1) with FIBMAP ioctl, it causes BUG_ON
in ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache().
To avoid the problem, ext4_map_blocks() needs to check the file logical block
number. ext4_ext_put_gap_in_cache() called via ext4_map_blocks() cannot
handle 2^32-1 because the maximum file logical block number is 2^32-2.
Note that ext4_ind_map_blocks() returns -EIO when the block number is invalid.
So ext4_map_blocks() should also return the same errno.

Reclaim will be leaving shadow entries in the page cache radix tree upon
evicting the real page. As those pages are found from the LRU, an
iput() can lead to the inode being freed concurrently. At this point,
reclaim must no longer install shadow pages because the inode freeing
code needs to ensure the page tree is really empty.
Add an address_space flag, AS_EXITING, that the inode freeing code sets
under the tree lock before doing the final truncate. Reclaim will check
for this flag before installing shadow pages.

The Hurd file system uses uses the inode field which is now used for
i_version for its translator block. This means that ext2 file systems
that are formatted for GNU Hurd can't be used to support NFSv4. Given
that Hurd file systems don't support extents, and a huge number of
modern file system features, this is no great loss.
If we don't do this, the attempt to update the i_version field will
stomp over the translator block field, which will cause file system
corruption for Hurd file systems. This can be replicated via:
mke2fs -t ext2 -o hurd /dev/vdc
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdc /vdc
touch /vdc/bug0000
umount /dev/vdc

Introduce new FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE flag for fallocate. This has the same
functionality as xfs ioctl XFS_IOC_ZERO_RANGE.
It can be used to convert a range of file to zeros preferably without
issuing data IO. Blocks should be preallocated for the regions that span
holes in the file, and the entire range is preferable converted to
unwritten extents
This can be also used to preallocate blocks past EOF in the same way as
with fallocate. Flag FALLOC_FL_KEEP_SIZE which should cause the inode
size to remain the same.

When doing filesystem wide sync, there's no need to force transaction
commit (or synchronously write inode buffer) separately for each inode
because ext4_sync_fs() takes care of forcing commit at the end (VFS
takes care of flushing buffer cache, respectively). Most of the time
this slowness doesn't manifest because previous WB_SYNC_NONE writeback
doesn't leave much to write but when there are processes aggressively
creating new files and several filesystems to sync, the sync slowness
can be noticeable. In the following test script sync(1) takes around 6
minutes when there are two ext4 filesystems mounted on a standard SATA
drive. After this patch sync takes a couple of seconds so we have about
two orders of magnitude improvement.

While handling punch-hole fallocate, it's useless to truncate page cache
before removing the range from extent tree (or block map in indirect case)
because page cache can be re-populated (by read-ahead or read(2) or mmap-ed
read) immediately after truncating page cache, but before updating extent
tree (or block map). In that case the user will see stale data even after
fallocate is completed.
Until the problem of data corruption resulting from pages backed by
already freed blocks is fully resolved, the simple thing we can do now
is to add another truncation of pagecache after punch hole is done.

per the kernel's standard error signalling convention).
Historically, overflows could never happen since mballoc() will refuse
to allocate more than 2048 blocks at a time (which is something we
should fix), and if the blocks were already allocated, the fact that
there would be some number of intervening metadata blocks pretty much
guaranteed that there could never be a contiguous region of data
blocks that was greater than 2**31 blocks.
However, this is now possible if there is a file system which is a bit
bigger than 8TB, and is created using the new mke2fs hugeblock
feature, which can create a perfectly contiguous file. In that case,
if a userspace program attempted to call fallocate() on this already
fully allocated file, it's possible that ext4_map_blocks() could
return a number large enough that it would overflow a signed integer,
resulting in a ext4 thinking that the ext4_map_blocks() call had
failed with some strange error code.
Since ext4_map_blocks() is always free to return a smaller number of
blocks than what was requested by the caller, fix this by capping the
number of blocks that ext4_map_blocks() will ever try to map to 2**31
- 1. In practice this should never get hit, except by someone
deliberately trying to provke the above-described bug.
Thanks to the PaX team for asking whethre this could possibly happen
in some off-line discussions about using some static code checking
technology they are developing to find bugs in kernel code.

Pull xfs update from Ben Myers:
"This is primarily bug fixes, many of which you already have. New
stuff includes a series to decouple the in-memory and on-disk log
format, helpers in the area of inode clusters, and i_version handling.
We decided to try to use more topic branches this release, so there
are some merge commits in there on account of that. I'm afraid I
didn't do a good job of putting meaningful comments in the first
couple of merges. Sorry about that. I think I have the hang of it
now.
For 3.14-rc1 there are fixes in the areas of remote attributes,
discard, growfs, memory leaks in recovery, directory v2, quotas, the
MAINTAINERS file, allocation alignment, extent list locking, and in
xfs_bmapi_allocate. There are cleanups in xfs_setsize_buftarg,
removing unused macros, quotas, setattr, and freeing of inode
clusters. The in-memory and on-disk log format have been decoupled, a
common helper to calculate the number of blocks in an inode cluster
has been added, and handling of i_version has been pulled into the
filesystems that use it.
- cleanup in xfs_setsize_buftarg
- removal of remaining unused flags for vop toss/flush/flushinval
- fix for memory corruption in xfs_attrlist_by_handle
- fix for out-of-date comment in xfs_trans_dqlockedjoin
- fix for discard if range length is less than one block
- fix for overrun of agfl buffer using growfs on v4 superblock
filesystems
- pull i_version handling out into the filesystems that use it
- don't leak recovery items on error
- fix for memory leak in xfs_dir2_node_removename
- several cleanups for quotas
- fix bad assertion in xfs_qm_vop_create_dqattach
- cleanup for xfs_setattr_mode, and add xfs_setattr_time
- fix quota assert in xfs_setattr_nonsize
- fix an infinite loop when turning off group/project quota before
user quota
- fix for temporary buffer allocation failure in xfs_dir2_block_to_sf
with large directory block sizes
- fix Dave's email address in MAINTAINERS
- cleanup calculation of freed inode cluster blocks
- fix alignment of initial file allocations to match filesystem
geometry
- decouple in-memory and on-disk log format
