| * [CIFS] Avoid open on possible directories since Samba now rejects themSteve French2009-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Small change (mostly formatting) to limit lookup based open calls to file create only. After discussion yesteday on samba-technical about the posix lookup regression, and looking at a problem with cifs posix open to one particular Samba version, Jeff and JRA realized that Samba server's behavior changed in this area (posix open behavior on files vs. directories). To make this behavior consistent, JRA just made a fix to Samba server to alter how it handles open of directories (now returning the equivalent of EISDIR instead of success). Since we don't know at lookup time whether the inode is a directory or file (and thus whether posix open will succeed with most current Samba server), this change avoids the posix open code on lookup open (just issues posix open on creates). This gets the semantic benefits we want (atomicity, posix byte range locks, improved write semantics on newly created files) and file create still is fast, and we avoid the problem that Jeff noticed yesterday with "openat" (and some open directory calls) of non-cached directories to one version of Samba server, and will work with future Samba versions (which include the fix jra just pushed into Samba server). I confirmed this approach with jra yesterday and with Shirish today. Posix open is only called (at lookup time) for file create now. For opens (rather than creates), because we do not know if it is a file or directory yet, and current Samba no longer allows us to do posix open on dirs, we could end up wasting an open call on what turns out to be a dir. For file opens, we wait to call posix open till cifs_open. It could be added here (lookup) in the future but the performance tradeoff of the extra network request when EISDIR or EACCES is returned would have to be weighed against the 50% reduction in network traffic in the other paths.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is the third respin of the patch posted yesterday to fix the error handling in cifs_follow_symlink. It also includes a fix for a bogus NULL pointer check in CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink that Jeff Moyer spotted. It's possible for CIFSSMBQueryUnixSymLink to return without setting target_path to a valid pointer. If that happens then the current value to which we're initializing this pointer could cause an oops when it's kfree'd. This patch is a little more comprehensive than the last patches. It reorganizes cifs_follow_link a bit for (hopefully) better readability. It should also eliminate the uneeded allocation of full_path on servers without unix extensions (assuming they can get to this point anyway, of which I'm not convinced). On a side note, I'm not sure I agree with the logic of enabling this query even when unix extensions are disabled on the client. It seems like that should disable this as well. But, changing that is outside the scope of this fix, so I've left it alone for now.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The problem is that permission checking is skipped if atomic open is possible, but when exec opens a file, it just opens it O_READONLY which means EXEC permission will not be checked at that time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If two CPU's simultaneously call ext4_ext_get_blocks() at the same time, there is nothing protecting the i_cached_extent structure from being used and updated at the same time. This could potentially cause the wrong location on disk to be read or written to, including potentially causing the corruption of the block group descriptors and/or inode table. This bug has been in the ext4 code since almost the very beginning of ext4's development. Fortunately once the data is stored in the page cache cache, ext4_get_blocks() doesn't need to be called, so trying to replicate this problem to the point where we could identify its root cause was *extremely* difficult. Many thanks to Kevin Shanahan for working over several months to be able to reproduce this easily so we could finally nail down the cause of the corruption.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The BH_Unwritten flag indicates that the buffer is allocated on disk but has not been written; that is, the disk was part of a persistent preallocation area. That flag should only be set when a get_blocks() function is looking up a inode's logical to physical block mapping. When ext4_get_blocks_wrap() is called with create=1, the uninitialized extent is converted into an initialized one, so the BH_Unwritten flag is no longer appropriate. Hence, we need to make sure the BH_Unwritten is not left set, since the combination of BH_Mapped and BH_Unwritten is not allowed; among other things, it will result ext4's get_block() to be called over and over again during the write_begin phase of write(2).

This resolves the inconsistency by ensuring to clear dirty state of the page buffering the deleted block.

| | |_|_|/ | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some function calls in nilfs_prepare_segment_for_recovery() may fail because they can create blocks on meta data files without configuring a writable FS-instance. Concretely, nilfs_mdt_create_block() routine of meta data files will fail in that case. This fixes the problem by temporarily attaching a writable FS-instace during the function is called.

This would not be a problem except that hugetlbfs also provide a ->readpage implementation. As it exists, the core VM can assume the base page size is being used, allocate pages on behalf of the filesystem, insert them into the page cache and call ->readpage to populate them. These pages are the wrong size and at the wrong offset for hugetlbfs causing confusion. This patch deletes the ->readpage implementation for hugetlbfs on the grounds the core VM should not be allocating and populating pages on behalf of hugetlbfs. There should be no existing users of the ->readpage implementation so it should not cause a regression.
