ext4_free_blocks is looping around the allocation request and mimics
__GFP_NOFAIL behavior without any allocation fallback strategy. Let's
remove the open coded loop and replace it with __GFP_NOFAIL. Without the
flag the allocator has no way to find out never-fail requirement and
cannot help in any way.

Currently ext4_ind_migrate() doesn't correctly handle a file which
contains a hole at the beginning of the file. This caused the migration
to be done incorrectly, and then if there is a subsequent following
delayed allocation write to the "hole", this would reclaim the same data
blocks again and results in fs corruption.
# assmuing 4k block size ext4, with delalloc enabled
# skip the first block and write to the second block
xfs_io -fc "pwrite 4k 4k" -c "fsync" /mnt/ext4/testfile
# converting to indirect-mapped file, which would move the data blocks
# to the beginning of the file, but extent status cache still marks
# that region as a hole
chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile
# delayed allocation writes to the "hole", reclaim the same data block
# again, results in i_blocks corruption

Currently the check in ext4_ind_migrate() is not enough before doing the
real conversion:
a) delayed allocated extents could bypass the check on eh->eh_entries
and eh->eh_depth
This can be demonstrated by this script
xfs_io -fc "pwrite 0 4k" -c "pwrite 8k 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile
chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile
where testfile has two extents but still be converted to non-extent
based file format.
b) only extent length is checked but not the offset, which would result
in data lose (delalloc) or fs corruption (nodelalloc), because
non-extent based file only supports at most (12 + 2^10 + 2^20 + 2^30)
blocks
This can be demostrated by
xfs_io -fc "pwrite 5T 4k" /mnt/ext4/testfile
chattr -e /mnt/ext4/testfile

If delalloc is enabled, dmesg prints

On delalloc enabled file system on invalidatepage operation
in ext4_da_page_release_reservation() we want to clear the delayed
buffer and remove the extent covering the delayed buffer from the extent
status tree.
However currently there is a bug where on the systems with page size >
block size we will always remove extents from the start of the page
regardless where the actual delayed buffers are positioned in the page.
This leads to the errors like this:
EXT4-fs warning (device loop0): ext4_da_release_space:1225:
ext4_da_release_space: ino 13, to_free 1 with only 0 reserved data
blocks
This however can cause data loss on writeback time if the file system is
in ENOSPC condition because we're releasing reservation for someones
else delayed buffer.
Fix this by only removing extents that corresponds to the part of the
page we want to invalidate.
This problem is reproducible by the following fio receipt (however I was
only able to reproduce it with fio-2.1 or older.

If updating journal superblock fails after journal data has been
flushed, the error is omitted and this will mislead the caller as a
normal case. In ocfs2, the checkpoint will be treated successfully
and the other node can get the lock to update. Since the sb_start is
still pointing to the old log block, it will rewrite the journal data
during journal recovery by the other node. Thus the new updates will
be overwritten and ocfs2 corrupts. So in above case we have to return
the error, and ocfs2_commit_cache will take care of the error and
prevent the other node to do update first. And only after recovering
journal it can do the new updates.

Currently in ext4_alloc_file_blocks() the number of credits is
calculated only once before we enter the allocation loop. However within
the allocation loop the extent tree depth can change, hence the number
of credits needed can increase potentially exceeding the number of credits
reserved in the handle which can cause journal failures.
Fix this by recalculating number of credits when the inode depth
changes. Note that even though ext4_alloc_file_blocks() is only
currently used by extent base inodes we will avoid recalculating number
of credits unnecessarily in the case of indirect based inodes.

jbd2_journal_get_write_access() and jbd2_journal_get_create_access() are
frequently called for buffers that are already part of the running
transaction - most frequently it is the case for bitmaps, inode table
blocks, and superblock. Since in such cases we have nothing to do, it is
unfortunate we still grab reference to journal head, lock the bh, lock
bh_state only to find out there's nothing to do.
Improving this is a bit subtle though since until we find out journal
head is attached to the running transaction, it can disappear from under
us because checkpointing / commit decided it's no longer needed. We deal
with this by protecting journal_head slab with RCU. We still have to be
careful about journal head being freed & reallocated within slab and
about exposing journal head in consistent state (in particular
b_modified and b_frozen_data must be in correct state before we allow
user to touch the buffer).

Currently ext4_mb_good_group() only returns 0 or 1 depending on whether

various errors and fail while initializing new group including -EIO
which would never get propagated up the call chain. This might lead to
an endless loop at writeback when we're trying to find a good group to
allocate from and we fail to initialize new group (read error for
example).
Fix this by returning proper error code from ext4_mb_good_group() and
using it in ext4_mb_regular_allocator(). In ext4_mb_regular_allocator()
we will always return only the first occurred error from
ext4_mb_good_group() and we only propagate it back to the caller if we
do not get any other errors and we fail to allocate any blocks.
Note that with other modes than errors=continue, we will fail
immediately in ext4_mb_good_group() in case of error, however with
errors=continue we should try to continue using the file system, that's
why we're not going to fail immediately when we see an error from

group to allocate from due to an problem in group initialization.

This basically reverts 47def82672 (jbd2: Remove __GFP_NOFAIL from jbd2

to open coding the endless loop around the allocator rather than
removing the dependency on the non failing allocation. So the
deprecation was a clear failure and the reality tells us that
__GFP_NOFAIL is not even close to go away.
It is still true that __GFP_NOFAIL allocations are generally discouraged
and new uses should be evaluated and an alternative (pre-allocations or
reservations) should be considered but it doesn't make any sense to lie
the allocator about the requirements. Allocator can take steps to help

Previously we allocated bounce pages using a combination of

Instead, use mempool_alloc() with GFP_NOWAIT. The mempool_alloc()
function will try using alloc_pages() initially, and then only use the
mempool reserve of pages if alloc_pages() is unable to fulfill the
request.
This minimizes the the impact on the mm layer when we need to do a
large amount of writeback of encrypted files, as Jaeguk Kim had
reported that under a heavy fio workload on a system with restricted
amounts memory (which unfortunately, includes many mobile handsets),
he had observed the the OOM killer getting triggered several times.
Using GFP_NOWAIT
If the mempool_alloc() function fails, we will retry the page
writeback at a later time; the function of the mempool is to ensure
that we can writeback at least 32 pages at a time, so we can more
efficiently dispatch I/O under high memory pressure situations. In
the future we should make this be a tunable so we can determine the
best tradeoff between permanently sequestering memory and the ability
to quickly launder pages so we can free up memory quickly when

Previously we were taking the required padding when allocating space
for the on-disk symlink. This caused a buffer overrun which could
trigger a krenel crash when running fsstress.

Fix a potential memory leak where fname->crypto_buf.name wouldn't get
freed in some error paths, and also make the error handling easier to
understand/audit.

Factor out calls to ext4_inherit_context() and move them to
__ext4_new_inode(); this fixes a problem where ext4_tmpfile() wasn't
calling calling ext4_inherit_context(), so the temporary file wasn't
getting protected. Since the blocks for the tmpfile could end up on
disk, they really should be protected if the tmpfile is created within
the context of an encrypted directory.

Set up the encryption information for newly created inodes immediately
after they inherit their encryption context from their parent
directories.

ext4_encrypted_zeroout() could end up leaking a bio and bounce page.
Fortunately it's not used much. While we're fixing things up,
refactor out common code into the static function alloc_bounce_page()
and fix up error handling if mempool_alloc() fails.

As suggested by Herbert Xu, we shouldn't allocate a new tfm each time
we read or write a page. Instead we can use a single tfm hanging off
the inode's crypt_info structure for all of our encryption needs for
that inode, since the tfm can be used by multiple crypto requests in
parallel.
Also use cmpxchg() to avoid races that could result in crypt_info
structure getting doubly allocated or doubly freed.

On arm64 this is apparently needed for CTS mode to function correctly.
Otherwise attempts to use CTS return ENOENT.
