69838727bc bio: fix memcpy corruption in bio_copy_user_iov()
st driver uses blk_rq_map_user() in order to just build a request out
of page frames. In this case, map_data->offset is a non zero value and
iov[0].iov_base is NULL. We need to increase nr_pages for that.

46a53cca82 Btrfs: look for acls during btrfs_read_locked_inode
This changes btrfs_read_locked_inode() to peek ahead in the btree for acl items.
If it is certain a given inode has no acls, it will set the in memory acl
fields to null to avoid acl lookups completely.

7b1a14bbb0 Btrfs: fix acl caching
Linus noticed the btrfs code to cache acls wasn't properly caching
a NULL acl when the inode didn't have any acls.  This meant the common
case of no acls resulted in expensive btree searches every time the
kernel checked permissions (which is quite often).

This is a modified version of Linus' original patch:

Properly set initial acl fields to BTRFS_ACL_NOT_CACHED in the inode.
This forces an acl lookup when permission checks are done.

Fix btrfs_get_acl to avoid lookups and locking when the inode acls fields
are set to null.

Fix btrfs_get_acl to use the right return value from __btrfs_getxattr
when deciding to cache a NULL acl.  It was storing a NULL acl when
__btrfs_getxattr return -ENOENT, but __btrfs_getxattr was actually returning
-ENODATA for this case.

e63b6a6c0f Btrfs: Fix a trivial warning using max() of u64 vs ULL.
A small warning popped up on ia64 because inode-map.c was comparing a
u64 object id with the ULL FIRST_FREE_OBJECTID.  My first thought was
that all the OBJECTID constants should contain the u64 cast because
btrfs code deals entirely in u64s.  But then I saw how large that was,
and figured I'd just fix the max() call.

c4b5a61431 ext4: Do not try to validate extents on special files
The EXTENTS_FL flag should never be set on special files, but if it
is, don't bother trying to validate that the extents tree is valid,
since only files, directories, and non-fast symlinks will ever have an
extent data structure.  We perhaps should flag the filesystem as being
corrupted if we see a special file (named pipes, device nodes, Unix
domain sockets, etc.) with the EXTENTS_FL flag, but e2fsck doesn't
currently check this case, so we'll just ignore this for now, since
it's harmless.

Without this fix, a special device with the extents flag is flagged as
an error by the kernel, so it is impossible to access or delete the
inode, but e2fsck doesn't see it as a problem, leading to
confused/frustrated users.

59bc5c758e Btrfs: fix deadlocks and stalls on dead root removal
After a transaction commit, the old root of the subvol btrees are sent through
snapshot removal.  This is what actually frees up any blocks replaced by
COW, and anything the old blocks pointed to.

Snapshot deletion will pause when a transaction commit has started, which
helps to avoid a huge amount of delayed reference count updates piling up
as the transaction is trying to close.

But, this pause happens after the snapshot deletion process has asked other
procs on the system to throttle back a bit so that it can make progress.

We don't want to throttle everyone while we're waiting for the transaction
commit, it leads to deadlocks in the user transaction ioctls used by Ceph
and makes things slower in general.

This patch changes things to avoid the throttling while we sleep.

e980b50cda Btrfs: fix fallocate deadlock on inode extent lock
The btrfs fallocate call takes an extent lock on the entire range
being fallocated, and then runs through insert_reserved_extent on each
extent as they are allocated.

The problem with this is that btrfs_drop_extents may decide to try
and take the same extent lock fallocate was already holding.  The solution
used here is to push down knowledge of the range that is already locked
going into btrfs_drop_extents.

It turns out that at least one other caller had the same bug.

97e728d435 Btrfs: try to keep a healthy ratio of metadata vs data block groups
This patch makes the chunk allocator keep a good ratio of metadata vs data
block groups.  By default for every 8 data block groups, we'll allocate 1
metadata chunk, or about 12% of the disk will be allocated for metadata.  This
can be changed by specifying the metadata_ratio mount option.

This is simply the number of data block groups that have to be allocated to
force a metadata chunk allocation.  By making sure we allocate metadata chunks
more often, we are less likely to get into situations where the whole disk
has been allocated as data block groups.

485c26ec70 ext4: Fix softlockup caused by illegal i_file_acl value in on-disk inode
If the block containing external extended attributes (which is stored
in i_file_acl and i_file_acl_high) is larger than the on-disk
filesystem, the process which tried to access the extended attributes
will endlessly issue kernel printks complaining that
"__find_get_block_slow() failed", locking up that CPU until the system
is forcibly rebooted.

So when we read in the inode, make sure the i_file_acl value is legal,
and if not, flag the filesystem as being corrupted.

8c652f96d3 do_execve() must not clear fs->in_exec if it was set by another thread
If do_execve() fails after check_unsafe_exec(), it clears fs->in_exec
unconditionally. This is wrong if we race with our sub-thread which
also does do_execve:

	Two threads T1 and T2 and another process P, all share the same
	->fs.

	T1 starts do_execve(BAD_FILE). It calls check_unsafe_exec(), since
	->fs is shared, we set LSM_UNSAFE but not ->in_exec.

	P exits and decrements fs->users.

	T2 starts do_execve(), calls check_unsafe_exec(), now ->fs is not
	shared, we set fs->in_exec.

	T1 continues, open_exec(BAD_FILE) fails, we clear ->in_exec and
	return to the user-space.

	T1 does clone(CLONE_FS /* without CLONE_THREAD */).

	T2 continues without LSM_UNSAFE_SHARE while ->fs is shared with
	another process.

Change check_unsafe_exec() to return res = 1 if we set ->in_exec, and change
do_execve() to clear ->in_exec depending on res.

When do_execve() suceeds, it is safe to clear ->in_exec unconditionally.
It can be set only if we don't share ->fs with another process, and since
we already killed all sub-threads either ->in_exec == 0 or we are the
only user of this ->fs.

Also, we do not need fs->lock to clear fs->in_exec.

3a6b42cadc eCryptfs: Larger buffer for encrypted symlink targets
When using filename encryption with eCryptfs, the value of the symlink
in the lower filesystem is encrypted and stored as a Tag 70 packet.
This results in a longer symlink target than if the target value wasn't
encrypted.

Users were reporting these messages in their syslog:

[ 45.653441] ecryptfs_parse_tag_70_packet: max_packet_size is [56]; real
packet size is [51]
[ 45.653444] ecryptfs_decode_and_decrypt_filename: Could not parse tag
70 packet from filename; copying through filename as-is

This was due to bufsiz, one the arguments in readlink(), being used to
when allocating the buffer passed to the lower inode's readlink().
That symlink target may be very large, but when decoded and decrypted,
could end up being smaller than bufsize.

To fix this, the buffer passed to the lower inode's readlink() will
always be PATH_MAX in size when filename encryption is enabled.  Any
necessary truncation occurs after the decoding and decrypting.

57ea34d199 eCryptfs: NULL pointer dereference in ecryptfs_send_miscdev()
If data is NULL, msg_ctx->msg is set to NULL and then dereferenced
afterwards.  ecryptfs_send_raw_message() is the only place that
ecryptfs_send_miscdev() is called with data being NULL, but the only
caller of that function (ecryptfs_process_helo()) is never called.  In
short, there is currently no way to trigger the NULL pointer
dereference.

This patch removes the two unused functions and modifies
ecryptfs_send_miscdev() to remove the NULL dereferences.

ae6e84596e eCryptfs: Copy lower inode attrs before dentry instantiation
Copies the lower inode attributes to the upper inode before passing the
upper inode to d_instantiate().  This is important for
security_d_instantiate().

The problem was discovered by a user seeing SELinux denials like so:

type=AVC msg=audit(1236812817.898:47): avc:  denied  { 0x100000 } for
pid=3584 comm="httpd" name="testdir" dev=ecryptfs ino=943872
scontext=root:system_r:httpd_t:s0
tcontext=root:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t:s0 tclass=file

Notice target class is file while testdir is really a directory,
confusing the permission translation (0x100000) due to the wrong i_mode.

a9e9dc24bb bio: use bio_kmalloc() in copy/map functions
Impact: remove possible deadlock condition

There is no reason to use mempool backed allocation for map functions.
Also, because kern mapping is used inside LLDs (e.g. for EH), using
mempool backed allocation can lead to deadlock under extreme
conditions (mempool already consumed by the time a request reached EH
and requests are blocked on EH).

Switch copy/map functions to bio_kmalloc().

451a9ebf65 bio: fix bio_kmalloc()
Impact: fix bio_kmalloc() and its destruction path

bio_kmalloc() was broken in two ways.

* bvec_alloc_bs() first allocates bvec using kmalloc() and then
  ignores it and allocates again like non-kmalloc bvecs.

* bio_kmalloc_destructor() didn't check for and free bio integrity
  data.

This patch fixes the above problems.  kmalloc patch is separated out
from bio_alloc_bioset() and allocates the requested number of bvecs as
inline bvecs.

* bio_alloc_bioset() no longer takes NULL @bs.  None other than
  bio_kmalloc() used it and outside users can't know how it was
  allocated anyway.

* Define and use BIO_POOL_NONE so that pool index check in
  bvec_free_bs() triggers if inline or kmalloc allocated bvec gets
  there.

* Relocate destructors on top of each allocation function so that how
  they're used is more clear.

Jens Axboe suggested allocating bvecs inline.

546888da82 Btrfs: fix btrfs fallocate oops and deadlock
Btrfs fallocate was incorrectly starting a transaction with a lock held
on the extent_io tree for the file, which could deadlock.  Strictly
speaking it was using join_transaction which would be safe, but it is better
to move the transaction outside of the lock.

When preallocated extents are overwritten, btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty was
being called on an unlocked buffer.  This was triggering an assertion and
oops because the lock is supposed to be held.

The bug was calling btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty on a leaf after btrfs_del_item had
been run.  btrfs_del_item takes care of dirtying things, so the solution is a
to skip the btrfs_mark_buffer_dirty call in this case.
