|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A block device driver may choose to provide a rw_page operation. These will be called when the filesystem is attempting to do page sized I/O to page cache pages (ie not for direct I/O). This does preclude I/Os that are larger than page size, so this may only be a performance gain for some devices.

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.

| * | writeback: Fix periodic writeback after fs mountJan Kara2013-06-281-1/+8
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code in blkdev.c moves a device inode to default_backing_dev_info when the last reference to the device is put and moves the device inode back to its bdi when the first reference is acquired. This includes moving to wb.b_dirty list if the device inode is dirty. The code however doesn't setup timer to wake corresponding flusher thread and while wb.b_dirty list is non-empty __mark_inode_dirty() will not set it up either. Thus periodic writeback is effectively disabled until a sync(2) call which can lead to unexpected data loss in case of crash or power failure. Fix the problem by setting up a timer for periodic writeback in case we add the first dirty inode to wb.b_dirty list in bdev_inode_switch_bdi().

* | mm: vmscan: take page buffers dirty and locked state into accountMel Gorman2013-07-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Page reclaim keeps track of dirty and under writeback pages and uses it to determine if wait_iff_congested() should stall or if kswapd should begin writing back pages. This fails to account for buffer pages that can be under writeback but not PageWriteback which is the case for filesystems like ext3 ordered mode. Furthermore, PageDirty buffer pages can have all the buffers clean and writepage does no IO so it should not be accounted as congested. This patch adds an address_space operation that filesystems may optionally use to check if a page is really dirty or really under writeback. An implementation is provided for for buffer_heads is added and used for block operations and ext3 in ordered mode. By default the page flags are obeyed. Credit goes to Jan Kara for identifying that the page flags alone are not sufficient for ext3 and sanity checking a number of ideas on how the problem could be addressed.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct block_device lifecycle is defined by its inode (see fs/block_dev.c) - block_device allocated first time we access /dev/loopXX and deallocated on bdev_destroy_inode. When we create the device "losetup /dev/loopXX afile" we want that block_device stay alive until we destroy the loop device with "losetup -d". But because we do not hold /dev/loopXX inode its counter goes 0, and inode/bdev can be destroyed at any moment. Usually it happens at memory pressure or when user drops inode cache (like in the test below). When later in loop_clr_fd() we want to use bdev we have use-after-free error with following stack: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000280 bd_set_size+0x10/0xa0 loop_clr_fd+0x1f8/0x420 [loop] lo_ioctl+0x200/0x7e0 [loop] lo_compat_ioctl+0x47/0xe0 [loop] compat_blkdev_ioctl+0x341/0x1290 do_filp_open+0x42/0xa0 compat_sys_ioctl+0xc1/0xf20 do_sys_open+0x16e/0x1d0 sysenter_dispatch+0x7/0x1a To prevent use-after-free we need to grab the device in loop_set_fd() and put it later in loop_clr_fd(). The issue is reprodusible on current Linus head and v3.3. Here is the test: dd if=/dev/zero of=loop.file bs=1M count=1 while [ true ]; do losetup /dev/loop0 loop.file echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches losetup -d /dev/loop0 done [ Doing bdgrab/bput in loop_set_fd/loop_clr_fd is safe, because every time we call loop_set_fd() we check that loop_device->lo_state is Lo_unbound and set it to Lo_bound If somebody will try to set_fd again it will get EBUSY. And if we try to loop_clr_fd() on unbound loop device we'll get ENXIO. loop_set_fd/loop_clr_fd (and any other loop ioctl) is called under loop_device->lo_ctl_mutex. ] Signed-off-by: Anatol Pomozov <anatol.pomozov@gmail.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We found that bdev->bd_invalidated was left set once revalidate_disk() is called, which results in page cache flush every time that device is open. Specifically, we found this problem in MD block device. Once we resize a MD device, mdadm --monitor periodically flush all page cache for that device every 60 or 1000 seconds when it opens the device. This bug lies since at least 3.2.0 till the latest kernel(3.6.2). Patch is attached. The following steps will reproduce the problem. 1. prepair a block device (eg /dev/sdb). 2. create two partitions: sudo parted /dev/sdb mklabel gpt mkpart primary 0% 50% mkpart primary 50% 100% 3. create a md device. sudo mdadm -C /dev/md/hoge -l 1 -n 2 -e 1.2 --assume-clean --auto=md --symlink=no /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2 4. create file system and mount it sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/md/hoge sudo mkdir /mnt/test sudo mount /dev/md/hoge /mnt/test 5. try to resize the device sudo mdadm -G /dev/md/hoge --size=max 6. create a file to fill file cache. sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/mnt/test/data bs=1M count=10 and verify the current status of file by free command. 7. mdadm monitor will open the md device every 1000 seconds and you will find all file cache on the device are cleared. The timing can be reduced by the following steps. a) kill mdadm and restart it with --delay option /sbin/mdadm --monitor --delay=30 --pid-file /var/run/mdadm/monitor.pid --daemonise --scan --syslog or open the md device directly. sudo dd if=/dev/md/hoge of=/dev/null bs=4096 count=1 Signed-off-by: MITSUNARI Shigeo <herumi@nifty.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Jeff Moyer <jmoyer@redhat.com> Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

* vfs: fix O_DIRECT read past end of block deviceLinus Torvalds2012-12-081-1/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The direct-IO write path already had the i_size checks in mm/filemap.c, but it turns out the read path did not, and removing the block size checks in fs/block_dev.c (commit bbec0270bdd8: "blkdev_max_block: make private to fs/buffer.c") removed the magic "shrink IO to past the end of the device" code there. Fix it by truncating the IO to the size of the block device, like the write path already does. NOTE! I suspect the write path would be *much* better off doing it this way in fs/block_dev.c, rather than hidden deep in mm/filemap.c. The mm/filemap.c code is extremely hard to follow, and has various conditionals on the target being a block device (ie the flag passed in to 'generic_write_checks()', along with a conditional update of the inode timestamp etc). It is also quite possible that we should treat this whole block device size as a "s_maxbytes" issue, and try to make the logic even more generic. However, in the meantime this is the fairly minimal targeted fix. Noted by Milan Broz thanks to a regression test for the cryptsetup reencrypt tool.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids cache line bouncing when many processes lock the semaphore for read. New percpu lock implementation The lock consists of an array of percpu unsigned integers, a boolean variable and a mutex. When we take the lock for read, we enter rcu read section, check for a "locked" variable. If it is false, we increase a percpu counter on the current cpu and exit the rcu section. If "locked" is true, we exit the rcu section, take the mutex and drop it (this waits until a writer finished) and retry. Unlocking for read just decreases percpu variable. Note that we can unlock on a difference cpu than where we locked, in this case the counter underflows. The sum of all percpu counters represents the number of processes that hold the lock for read. When we need to lock for write, we take the mutex, set "locked" variable to true and synchronize rcu. Since RCU has been synchronized, no processes can create new read locks. We wait until the sum of percpu counters is zero - when it is, there are no readers in the critical section.

| * Fix a crash when block device is read and block size is changed at the same timeMikulas Patocka2012-09-261-2/+60
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The kernel may crash when block size is changed and I/O is issued simultaneously. Because some subsystems (udev or lvm) may read any block device anytime, the bug actually puts any code that changes a block device size in jeopardy. The crash can be reproduced if you place "msleep(1000)" to blkdev_get_blocks just before "bh->b_size = max_blocks << inode->i_blkbits;". Then, run "dd if=/dev/ram0 of=/dev/null bs=4k count=1 iflag=direct" While it is waiting in msleep, run "blockdev --setbsz 2048 /dev/ram0" You get a BUG. The direct and non-direct I/O is written with the assumption that block size does not change. It doesn't seem practical to fix these crashes one-by-one there may be many crash possibilities when block size changes at a certain place and it is impossible to find them all and verify the code. This patch introduces a new rw-lock bd_block_size_semaphore. The lock is taken for read during I/O. It is taken for write when changing block size. Consequently, block size can't be changed while I/O is being submitted. For asynchronous I/O, the patch only prevents block size change while the I/O is being submitted. The block size can change when the I/O is in progress or when the I/O is being finished. This is acceptable because there are no accesses to block size when asynchronous I/O is being finished. The patch prevents block size changing while the device is mapped with mmap. Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

Then, when dd reads the block device, it leads to block_read_full_page being called with buffers that are beyond end of disk, but are marked as mapped. Thus, it would end up submitting read I/O against them, resulting in the errors mentioned above. I fixed the problem by modifying init_page_buffers to only set the buffer mapped if it fell inside of i_size.
