b0c1dfb82b fuse: fix llseek bug
commit b48c6af208 upstream.

The test in fuse_file_llseek() "not SEEK_CUR or not SEEK_SET" always evaluates
to true.

This was introduced in 3.1 by commit 06222e49 (fs: handle SEEK_HOLE/SEEK_DATA
properly in all fs's that define their own llseek) and changed the behavior of
SEEK_CUR and SEEK_SET to always retrieve the file attributes.  This is a
performance regression.

Fix the test so that it makes sense.

3425a017be fuse: fix fuse_retrieve
commit 48706d0a91 upstream.

Fix two bugs in fuse_retrieve():

 - retrieving more than one page would yield repeated instances of the
   first page

 - if more than FUSE_MAX_PAGES_PER_REQ pages were requested than the
   request page array would overflow

fuse_retrieve() was added in 2.6.36 and these bugs had been there since the
beginning.

8afe1f656c ext4: avoid potential hang in mpage_submit_io() when blocksize < pagesize
commit 13a79a4741 upstream.

If there is an unwritten but clean buffer in a page and there is a
dirty buffer after the buffer, then mpage_submit_io does not write the
dirty buffer out.  As a result, da_writepages loops forever.

This patch fixes the problem by checking dirty flag.

d118bc3aec ext4: avoid hangs in ext4_da_should_update_i_disksize()
commit ea51d132db upstream.

If the pte mapping in generic_perform_write() is unmapped between
iov_iter_fault_in_readable() and iov_iter_copy_from_user_atomic(), the
"copied" parameter to ->end_write can be zero. ext4 couldn't cope with
it with delayed allocations enabled. This skips the i_disksize
enlargement logic if copied is zero and no new data was appeneded to
the inode.

This is 100% reproducible with some autonuma development code tuned in
a very aggressive manner (not normal way even for knumad) which does
"exotic" changes to the ptes. It wouldn't normally trigger but I don't
see why it can't happen normally if the page is added to swap cache in
between the two faults leading to "copied" being zero (which then
hangs in ext4). So it should be fixed. Especially possible with lumpy
reclaim (albeit disabled if compaction is enabled) as that would
ignore the young bits in the ptes.

9f0f2bb728 hfs: fix hfs_find_init() sb->ext_tree NULL ptr oops
commit 434a964daa upstream.

Clement Lecigne reports a filesystem which causes a kernel oops in
hfs_find_init() trying to dereference sb->ext_tree which is NULL.

This proves to be because the filesystem has a corrupted MDB extent
record, where the extents file does not fit into the first three extents
in the file record (the first blocks).

In hfs_get_block() when looking up the blocks for the extent file
(HFS_EXT_CNID), it fails the first blocks special case, and falls
through to the extent code (which ultimately calls hfs_find_init())
which is in the process of being initialised.

Hfs avoids this scenario by always having the extents b-tree fitting
into the first blocks (the extents B-tree can't have overflow extents).

The fix is to check at mount time that the B-tree fits into first
blocks, i.e.  fail if HFS_I(inode)->alloc_blocks >=
HFS_I(inode)->first_blocks

Note, the existing commit 47f365eb57 ("hfs: fix oops on mount with
corrupted btree extent records") becomes subsumed into this as a special
case, but only for the extents B-tree (HFS_EXT_CNID), it is perfectly
acceptable for the catalog B-Tree file to grow beyond three extents,
with the remaining extent descriptors in the extents overfow.

This fixes CVE-2011-2203

d02ab857b2 jbd/jbd2: validate sb->s_first in journal_get_superblock()
commit 8762202dd0 upstream.

I hit a J_ASSERT(blocknr != 0) failure in cleanup_journal_tail() when
mounting a fsfuzzed ext3 image. It turns out that the corrupted ext3
image has s_first = 0 in journal superblock, and the 0 is passed to
journal->j_head in journal_reset(), then to blocknr in
cleanup_journal_tail(), in the end the J_ASSERT failed.

So validate s_first after reading journal superblock from disk in
journal_get_superblock() to ensure s_first is valid.

The following script could reproduce it:

fstype=ext3
blocksize=1024
img=$fstype.img
offset=0
found=0
magic="c0 3b 39 98"

dd if=/dev/zero of=$img bs=1M count=8
mkfs -t $fstype -b $blocksize -F $img
filesize=`stat -c %s $img`
while [ $offset -lt $filesize ]
do
        if od -j $offset -N 4 -t x1 $img | grep -i "$magic";then
                echo "Found journal: $offset"
                found=1
                break
        fi
        offset=`echo "$offset+$blocksize" | bc`
done

if [ $found -ne 1 ];then
        echo "Magic \"$magic\" not found"
        exit 1
fi

dd if=/dev/zero of=$img seek=$(($offset+23)) conv=notrunc bs=1 count=1

mkdir -p ./mnt
mount -o loop $img ./mnt

5bf4dba264 cifs: check for NULL last_entry before calling cifs_save_resume_key
commit 7023676f9e upstream.

Prior to commit eaf35b1, cifs_save_resume_key had some NULL pointer
checks at the top. It turns out that at least one of those NULL
pointer checks is needed after all.

When the LastNameOffset in a FIND reply appears to be beyond the end of
the buffer, CIFSFindFirst and CIFSFindNext will set srch_inf.last_entry
to NULL. Since eaf35b1, the code will now oops in this situation.

Fix this by having the callers check for a NULL last entry pointer
before calling cifs_save_resume_key. No change is needed for the
call site in cifs_readdir as it's not reachable with a NULL
current_entry pointer.

This should fix:

0e70f402bc fix apparmor dereferencing potentially freed dentry, sanitize __d_path() API
commit 02125a8264 upstream.

__d_path() API is asking for trouble and in case of apparmor d_namespace_path()
getting just that.  The root cause is that when __d_path() misses the root
it had been told to look for, it stores the location of the most remote ancestor
in *root.  Without grabbing references.  Sure, at the moment of call it had
been pinned down by what we have in *path.  And if we raced with umount -l, we
could have very well stopped at vfsmount/dentry that got freed as soon as
prepend_path() dropped vfsmount_lock.

It is safe to compare these pointers with pre-existing (and known to be still
alive) vfsmount and dentry, as long as all we are asking is "is it the same
address?".  Dereferencing is not safe and apparmor ended up stepping into
that.  d_namespace_path() really wants to examine the place where we stopped,
even if it's not connected to our namespace.  As the result, it looked
at ->d_sb->s_magic of a dentry that might've been already freed by that point.
All other callers had been careful enough to avoid that, but it's really
a bad interface - it invites that kind of trouble.

The fix is fairly straightforward, even though it's bigger than I'd like:
	* prepend_path() root argument becomes const.
	* __d_path() is never called with NULL/NULL root.  It was a kludge
to start with.  Instead, we have an explicit function - d_absolute_root().
Same as __d_path(), except that it doesn't get root passed and stops where
it stops.  apparmor and tomoyo are using it.
	* __d_path() returns NULL on path outside of root.  The main
caller is show_mountinfo() and that's precisely what we pass root for - to
skip those outside chroot jail.  Those who don't want that can (and do)
use d_path().
	* __d_path() root argument becomes const.  Everyone agrees, I hope.
	* apparmor does *NOT* try to use __d_path() or any of its variants
when it sees that path->mnt is an internal vfsmount.  In that case it's
definitely not mounted anywhere and dentry_path() is exactly what we want
there.  Handling of sysctl()-triggered weirdness is moved to that place.
	* if apparmor is asked to do pathname relative to chroot jail
and __d_path() tells it we it's not in that jail, the sucker just calls
d_absolute_path() instead.  That's the other remaining caller of __d_path(),
BTW.
        * seq_path_root() does _NOT_ return -ENAMETOOLONG (it's stupid anyway -
the normal seq_file logics will take care of growing the buffer and redoing
the call of ->show() just fine).  However, if it gets path not reachable
from root, it returns SEQ_SKIP.  The only caller adjusted (i.e. stopped
ignoring the return value as it used to do).

5635019b75 xfs: use doalloc flag in xfs_qm_dqattach_one()
commit db3e74b582 upstream.

The doalloc arg in xfs_qm_dqattach_one() is a flag that indicates
whether a new area to handle quota information will be allocated
if needed. Originally, it was passed to xfs_qm_dqget(), but has
been removed by the following commit (probably by mistake):

	Date:   Sun Feb 8 21:51:42 2009 +0100

	xfs: remove the unused XFS_QMOPT_DQLOCK flag

As the result, xfs_qm_dqget() called from xfs_qm_dqattach_one()
never allocates the new area even if it is needed.

This patch gives the doalloc arg to xfs_qm_dqget() in
xfs_qm_dqattach_one() to fix this problem.

c38aeb8cd1 xfs: Fix possible memory corruption in xfs_readlink
commit b52a360b2a upstream.

Fixes a possible memory corruption when the link is larger than
MAXPATHLEN and XFS_DEBUG is not enabled. This also remove the
S_ISLNK assert, since the inode mode is checked previously in
xfs_readlink_by_handle() and via VFS.

Updated to address concerns raised by Ben Hutchings about the loose
attention paid to 32- vs 64-bit values, and the lack of handling a
potentially negative pathlen value:
 - Changed type of "pathlen" to be xfs_fsize_t, to match that of
   ip->i_d.di_size
 - Added checking for a negative pathlen to the too-long pathlen
   test, and generalized the message that gets reported in that case
   to reflect the change
As a result, if a negative pathlen were encountered, this function
would return EFSCORRUPTED (and would fail an assertion for a debug
build)--just as would a too-long pathlen.

7f9fae139e xfs: fix buffer flushing during unmount
commit 87c7bec7fc upstream.

The code to flush buffers in the umount code is a bit iffy: we first
flush all delwri buffers out, but then might be able to queue up a
new one when logging the sb counts.  On a normal shutdown that one
would get flushed out when doing the synchronous superblock write in
xfs_unmountfs_writesb, but we skip that one if the filesystem has
been shut down.

Fix this by moving the delwri list flushing until just before unmounting
the log, and while we're at it also remove the superflous delwri list
and buffer lru flusing for the rt and log device that can never have
cached or delwri buffers.

Currently a buffered reader or writer can add pages to the pagecache
while we are waiting for the iolock in xfs_file_dio_aio_write.  Prevent

686da49e5a xfs: don't serialise direct IO reads on page cache checks
commit 0c38a2512d upstream.

There is no need to grab the i_mutex of the IO lock in exclusive
mode if we don't need to invalidate the page cache. Taking these
locks on every direct IO effective serialises them as taking the IO
lock in exclusive mode has to wait for all shared holders to drop
the lock. That only happens when IO is complete, so effective it
prevents dispatch of concurrent direct IO reads to the same inode.

Fix this by taking the IO lock shared to check the page cache state,
and only then drop it and take the IO lock exclusively if there is
work to be done. Hence for the normal direct IO case, no exclusive
locking will occur.

ext4_end_io_dio() queues io_end->work and then clears iocb->private;
however, io_end->work calls aio_complete() which frees the iocb
object.  If that slab object gets reallocated, then ext4_end_io_dio()
can end up clearing someone else's iocb->private, this use-after-free
can cause a leak of a struct ext4_io_end_t structure.

722daca851 eCryptfs: Extend array bounds for all filename chars
commit 0f751e641a upstream.

From mhalcrow's original commit message:

    Characters with ASCII values greater than the size of
    filename_rev_map[] are valid filename characters.
    ecryptfs_decode_from_filename() will access kernel memory beyond
    that array, and ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet() will then decrypt
    those characters. The attacker, using the FNEK of the crafted file,
    can then re-encrypt the characters to reveal the kernel memory past
    the end of the filename_rev_map[] array. I expect low security
    impact since this array is statically allocated in the text area,
    and the amount of memory past the array that is accessible is
    limited by the largest possible ASCII filename character.

This patch solves the issue reported by mhalcrow but with an
implementation suggested by Linus to simply extend the length of
filename_rev_map[] to 256. Characters greater than 0x7A are mapped to
0x00, which is how invalid characters less than 0x7A were previously
being handled.

19c8acbc4a eCryptfs: Flush file in vma close
commit 32001d6fe9 upstream.

Dirty pages weren't being written back when an mmap'ed eCryptfs file was
closed before the mapping was unmapped. Since f_ops->flush() is not
called by the munmap() path, the lower file was simply being released.
This patch flushes the eCryptfs file in the vm_ops->close() path.

d1d274cd1c eCryptfs: Prevent file create race condition
commit b59db43ad4 upstream.

The file creation path prematurely called d_instantiate() and
unlock_new_inode() before the eCryptfs inode info was fully
allocated and initialized and before the eCryptfs metadata was written
to the lower file.

This could result in race conditions in subsequent file and inode
operations leading to unexpected error conditions or a null pointer
dereference while attempting to use the unallocated memory.

0d2c754e96 nfs: when attempting to open a directory, fall back on normal lookup (try #5)
commit 1788ea6e3b upstream.

commit d953126 changed how nfs_atomic_lookup handles an -EISDIR return
from an OPEN call. Prior to that patch, that caused the client to fall
back to doing a normal lookup. When that patch went in, the code began
returning that error to userspace. The d_revalidate codepath however
never had the corresponding change, so it was still possible to end up
with a NULL ctx->state pointer after that.

That patch caused a regression. When we attempt to open a directory that
does not have a cached dentry, that open now errors out with EISDIR. If
you attempt the same open with a cached dentry, it will succeed.

Fix this by reverting the change in nfs_atomic_lookup and allowing
attempts to open directories to fall back to a normal lookup

Also, add a NFSv4-specific f_ops->open routine that just returns
-ENOTDIR. This should never be called if things are working properly,
but if it ever is, then the dprintk may help in debugging.

To facilitate this, a new file_operations field is also added to the
nfs_rpc_ops struct.

edfaaac6ea VFS: we need to set LOOKUP_JUMPED on mountpoint crossing
commit a3fbbde70a upstream.

Mountpoint crossing is similar to following procfs symlinks - we do
not get ->d_revalidate() called for dentry we have arrived at, with
unpleasant consequences for NFS4.

Simple way to reproduce the problem in mainline:

    cat >/tmp/a.c <<'EOF'
    #include <unistd.h>
    #include <fcntl.h>
    #include <stdio.h>
    main()
    {
            struct flock fl = {.l_type = F_RDLCK, .l_whence = SEEK_SET, .l_len = 1};
            if (fcntl(0, F_SETLK, &fl))
                    perror("setlk");
    }
    EOF
    cc /tmp/a.c -o /tmp/test

then on nfs4:

    mount --bind file1 file2
    /tmp/test < file1		# ok
    /tmp/test < file2		# spews "setlk: No locks available"...

What happens is the missing call of ->d_revalidate() after mountpoint
crossing and that's where NFS4 would issue OPEN request to server.

The fix is simple - treat mountpoint crossing the same way we deal with
following procfs-style symlinks.  I.e.  set LOOKUP_JUMPED...

This is because bdev holds on to disk but disk doesn't pin the
associated queue.  If a SCSI device is removed while the device is
still open, the sdev puts the base reference to the queue on release.
When the bdev is finally released, the associated queue is already
gone along with the bdi and bdev_inode_switch_bdi() ends up
dereferencing already freed bdi.

Even if it were not for this bug, disk not holding onto the associated
queue is very unusual and error-prone.

Fix it by making add_disk() take an extra reference to its queue and
put it on disk_release() and ensuring that disk and its fops owner are
put in that order after all accesses to the disk and queue are
complete.

87556ecf5d ext4: fix race in xattr block allocation path
commit 6d6a435190 upstream.

Ceph users reported that when using Ceph on ext4, the filesystem
would often become corrupted, containing inodes with incorrect
i_blocks counters.

I managed to reproduce this with a very hacked-up "streamtest"
binary from the Ceph tree.

Ceph is doing a lot of xattr writes, to out-of-inode blocks.
There is also another thread which does sync_file_range and close,
of the same files.  The problem appears to happen due to this race:

sync/flush thread               xattr-set thread
-----------------               ----------------

do_writepages                   ext4_xattr_set
ext4_da_writepages              ext4_xattr_set_handle
mpage_da_map_blocks             ext4_xattr_block_set
        set DELALLOC_RESERVE
                                ext4_new_meta_blocks
                                        ext4_mb_new_blocks
                                                if (!i_delalloc_reserved_flag)
                                                        vfs_dq_alloc_block
ext4_get_blocks
	down_write(i_data_sem)
        set i_delalloc_reserved_flag
	...
	up_write(i_data_sem)
                                        if (i_delalloc_reserved_flag)
                                                vfs_dq_alloc_block_nofail


In other words, the sync/flush thread pops in and sets
i_delalloc_reserved_flag on the inode, which makes the xattr thread
think that it's in a delalloc path in ext4_new_meta_blocks(),
and add the block for a second time, after already having added
it once in the !i_delalloc_reserved_flag case in ext4_mb_new_blocks

The real problem is that we shouldn't be using the DELALLOC_RESERVED
state flag, and instead we should be passing
EXT4_GET_BLOCKS_DELALLOC_RESERVE down to ext4_map_blocks() instead of
using an inode state flag.  We'll fix this for now with using
i_data_sem to prevent this race, but this is really not the right way
to fix things.

ext4_dx_add_entry manipulates bh2 and frames[0].bh, which are two buffer_heads

When ext4_rename performs a directory rename (move), dir_bh is a
buffer that is modified to update the '..' link in the directory being

4f0d844bad readlinkat: ensure we return ENOENT for the empty pathname for normal lookups
commit 1fa1e7f615 upstream.

Since the commit below which added O_PATH support to the *at() calls, the
error return for readlink/readlinkat for the empty pathname has switched
from ENOENT to EINVAL:

  commit 65cfc67223
  Author: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
  Date:   Sun Mar 13 15:56:26 2011 -0400

    readlinkat(), fchownat() and fstatat() with empty relative pathnames

This is both unexpected for userspace and makes readlink/readlinkat
inconsistant with all other interfaces; and inconsistant with our stated
return for these pathnames.

As the readlinkat call does not have a flags parameter we cannot use the
AT_EMPTY_PATH approach used in the other calls.  Therefore expose whether
the original path is infact entry via a new user_path_at_empty() path
lookup function.  Use this to determine whether to default to EINVAL or
ENOENT for failures.

68251a1702 nfsd4: fix open downgrade, again
commit 3d02fa29de upstream.

Yet another open-management regression:

	- nfs4_file_downgrade() doesn't remove the BOTH access bit on
	  downgrade, so the server's idea of the stateid's access gets
	  out of sync with the client's.  If we want to keep an O_RDWR
	  open in this case, we should do that in the file_put_access
	  logic rather than here.
	- We forgot to convert v4 access to an open mode here.

This logic has proven too hard to get right.  In the future we may
consider:
	- reexamining the lock/openowner relationship (locks probably
	  don't really need to take their own references here).
	- adding open upgrade/downgrade support to the vfs.
	- removing the atomic operations.  They're redundant as long as
	  this is all under some other lock.

Also, maybe some kind of additional static checking would help catch
O_/NFS4_SHARE_ACCESS confusion.

fdbc365c5c nfsd4: permit read opens of executable-only files
commit a043226bc1 upstream.

A client that wants to execute a file must be able to read it.  Read
opens over nfs are therefore implicitly allowed for executable files
even when those files are not readable.

NFSv2/v3 get this right by using a passed-in NFSD_MAY_OWNER_OVERRIDE on
read requests, but NFSv4 has gotten this wrong ever since
dc730e1737 "nfsd4: fix owner-override on
open", when we realized that the file owner shouldn't override
permissions on non-reclaim NFSv4 opens.

So we can't use NFSD_MAY_OWNER_OVERRIDE to tell nfsd_permission to allow
reads of executable files.

So, do the same thing we do whenever we encounter another weird NFS
permission nit: define yet another NFSD_MAY_* flag.

The industry's future standardization on 128-bit processors will be
motivated primarily by the need for integers with enough bits for all
the NFSD_MAY_* flags.

b44ecd56e9 nfsd4: Remove check for a 32-bit cookie in nfsd4_readdir()
commit 832023bffb upstream.

Fan Yong <yong.fan@whamcloud.com> noticed setting
FMODE_32bithash wouldn't work with nfsd v4, as
nfsd4_readdir() checks for 32 bit cookies. However, according to RFC 3530
cookies have a 64 bit type and cookies are also defined as u64 in
'struct nfsd4_readdir'. So remove the test for >32-bit values.

c56f5c1b3e nfs: don't try to migrate pages with active requests
commit 2da9565235 upstream.

nfs_find_and_lock_request will take a reference to the nfs_page and
will then put it if the req is already locked. It's possible though
that the reference will be the last one. That put then can kick off
a whole series of reference puts:

nfs_page
   nfs_open_context
      dentry
          inode

If the inode ends up being deleted, then the VFS will call
truncate_inode_pages. That function will try to take the page lock, but
it was already locked when migrate_page was called. The code
deadlocks.

Fix this by simply refusing the migration request if PagePrivate is
already set, indicating that the page is already associated with an
active read or write request.

We've had a customer test a backported version of this patch and
the preliminary results seem good.

9c8b701a3d nfs: don't redirty inode when ncommit == 0 in nfs_commit_unstable_pages
commit 3236c3e1ad upstream.

commit 420e3646 allowed the kernel to reduce the number of unnecessary
commit calls by skipping the commit when there are a large number of
outstanding pages.

However, the current test in nfs_commit_unstable_pages does not handle
the edge condition properly. When ncommit == 0, then that means that the
kernel doesn't need to do anything more for the inode. The current test
though in the WB_SYNC_NONE case will return true, and the inode will end
up being marked dirty. Once that happens the inode will never be clean
until there's a WB_SYNC_ALL flush.

Fix this by immediately returning from nfs_commit_unstable_pages when
ncommit == 0.

Mike noticed this problem initially in RHEL5 (2.6.18-based kernel) which
has a backported version of 420e3646. The inode cache there was growing
very large. The inode cache was unable to be shrunk since the inodes
were all marked dirty. Calling sync() would essentially "fix" the
problem -- the WB_SYNC_ALL flush would result in the inodes all being
marked clean.

What I'm not clear on is how big a problem this is in mainline kernels
as the writeback code there is very different. Either way, it seems
incorrect to re-mark the inode dirty in this case.

ddd5310cb9 Revert "NFS: Ensure that writeback_single_inode() calls write_inode() when syncing"
commit 59b7c05fff upstream.

This reverts commit b80c3cb628.

The reverted commit was rendered obsolete by a VFS fix: commit
5547e8aac6 (writeback: Update dirty flags in
two steps). We now no longer need to worry about writeback_single_inode()
missing our marking the inode for COMMIT in 'do_writepages()' call.

Reverting this patch, fixes a performance regression in which the inode
would continuously get queued to the dirty list, causing the writeback
code to unnecessarily try to send a COMMIT.

9c348b7654 pnfsblock: fix writeback deadlock
commit 7542274519 upstream.

We should check if the sector is already initialized before
trying to grab the page from page cache. Otherwise when two
pages of the same block are written back by two threads each
calling from writepage_locked, it can cause deadlock like bellow.
