JBD2 makes sure journal data is fallen on fs device by sync_blockdev(),
however, other process could intercept the EIO information from bdev's
mapping, which leads journal recovering successful even EIO occurs during
data written back to fs device.
We found this problem in our product, iscsi + multipath is chosen for block
device of ext4. Unstable network may trigger kpartx to rescan partitions in
device mapper layer. Detailed process is shown as following:
mount kpartx irq
jbd2_journal_recover
do_one_pass
memcpy(nbh->b_data, obh->b_data) // copy data to fs dev from journal
mark_buffer_dirty // mark bh dirty
vfs_read
generic_file_read_iter // dio
filemap_write_and_wait_range
__filemap_fdatawrite_range
do_writepages
block_write_full_folio
submit_bh_wbc
>> EIO occurs in disk <<
end_buffer_async_write
mark_buffer_write_io_error
mapping_set_error
set_bit(AS_EIO, &mapping->flags) // set!
filemap_check_errors
test_and_clear_bit(AS_EIO, &mapping->flags) // clear!
err2 = sync_blockdev
filemap_write_and_wait
filemap_check_errors
test_and_clear_bit(AS_EIO, &mapping->flags) // false
err2 = 0
Filesystem is mounted successfully even data from journal is failed written
into disk, and ext4/ocfs2 could become corrupted.
Fix it by comparing the wb_err state in fs block device before recovering
and after recovering.

** Short Version **
In ext4 with dioread_nolock, we could have a scenario where the bh returned by
get_blocks (ext4_get_block_unwritten()) in __block_write_begin_int() has
UNWRITTEN and MAPPED flag set. Since such a bh does not have NEW flag set we
never zero out the range of bh that is not under write, causing whatever stale
data is present in the folio at that time to be written out to disk. To fix this
mark the buffer as new, in case it is unwritten, in ext4_get_block_unwritten().
** Long Version **
The issue mentioned above was resulting in two different bugs:
1. On block size < page size case in ext4, generic/269 was reliably
failing with dioread_nolock. The state of the write was as follows:
* The write was extending i_size.
* The last block of the file was fallocated and had an unwritten extent
* We were near ENOSPC and hence we were switching to non-delayed alloc
allocation.
In this case, the back trace that triggers the bug is as follows:
ext4_da_write_begin()
/* switch to nodelalloc due to low space */
ext4_write_begin()
ext4_should_dioread_nolock() // true since mount flags still have delalloc
__block_write_begin(..., ext4_get_block_unwritten)
__block_write_begin_int()
for(each buffer head in page) {
/* first iteration, this is bh1 which contains i_size */
if (!buffer_mapped)
get_block() /* returns bh with only UNWRITTEN and MAPPED */
/* second iteration, bh2 */
if (!buffer_mapped)
get_block() /* we fail here, could be ENOSPC */
}
if (err)
/*
* this would zero out all new buffers and mark them uptodate.
* Since bh1 was never marked new, we skip it here which causes
* the bug later.
*/
folio_zero_new_buffers();
/* ext4_wrte_begin() error handling */
ext4_truncate_failed_write()
ext4_truncate()
ext4_block_truncate_page()
__ext4_block_zero_page_range()
if(!buffer_uptodate())
ext4_read_bh_lock()
ext4_read_bh() -> ... ext4_submit_bh_wbc()
BUG_ON(buffer_unwritten(bh)); /* !!! */
2. The second issue is stale data exposure with page size >= blocksize
with dioread_nolock. The conditions needed for it to happen are same as
the previous issue ie dioread_nolock around ENOSPC condition. The issue
is also similar where in __block_write_begin_int() when we call
ext4_get_block_unwritten() on the buffer_head and the underlying extent
is unwritten, we get an unwritten and mapped buffer head. Since it is
not new, we never zero out the partial range which is not under write,
thus writing stale data to disk. This can be easily observed with the
following reproducer:
fallocate -l 4k testfile
xfs_io -c "pwrite 2k 2k" testfile
# hexdump output will have stale data in from byte 0 to 2k in testfile
hexdump -C testfile
NOTE: To trigger this, we need dioread_nolock enabled and write happening via
ext4_write_begin(), which is usually used when we have -o nodealloc. Since
dioread_nolock is disabled with nodelalloc, the only alternate way to call
ext4_write_begin() is to ensure that delayed alloc switches to nodelalloc ie
ext4_da_write_begin() calls ext4_write_begin(). This will usually happen when
ext4 is almost full like the way generic/269 was triggering it in Issue 1 above.
This might make the issue harder to hit. Hence, for reliable replication, I used
the below patch to temporarily allow dioread_nolock with nodelalloc and then
mount the disk with -o nodealloc,dioread_nolock. With this you can hit the stale
data issue 100% of times:
@@ -508,8 +508,8 @@ static inline int ext4_should_dioread_nolock(struct inode *inode)
if (ext4_should_journal_data(inode))
return 0;
/* temporary fix to prevent generic/422 test failures */
- if (!test_opt(inode->i_sb, DELALLOC))
- return 0;
+ // if (!test_opt(inode->i_sb, DELALLOC))
+ // return 0;
return 1;
}
After applying this patch to mark buffer as NEW, both the above issues are
fixed.

Now, if check data block checksum failed only print data's block number
then skip write data. However, one data block may in more than one transaction.
In some scenarios, offline analysis is inconvenient. As a result, it is
difficult to locate the areas where data is faulty.
So print 'io_block' if check data block checksum failed.

Wrong check of gdb backup in meta bg as following:
first_group is the first group of meta_bg which contains target group, so
target group is always >= first_group. We check if target group has gdb
backup by comparing first_group with [group + 1] and [group +
EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb) - 1]. As group >= first_group, then [group + N] is
> first_group. So no copy of gdb backup in meta bg is done in
setup_new_flex_group_blocks.
No need to do gdb backup copy in meta bg from setup_new_flex_group_blocks
as we always copy updated gdb block to backups at end of
ext4_flex_group_add as following:
ext4_flex_group_add
/* no gdb backup copy for meta bg any more */
setup_new_flex_group_blocks
/* update current group number */
ext4_update_super
sbi->s_groups_count += flex_gd->count;
/*
* if group in meta bg contains backup is added, the primary gdb block
* of the meta bg will be copy to backup in new added group here.
*/
for (; gdb_num <= gdb_num_end; gdb_num++)
update_backups(...)
In summary, we can remove wrong gdb backup copy code in
setup_new_flex_group_blocks.

Commit 0aeaa2559d ("ext4: fix corruption when online resizing a 1K
bigalloc fs") found that primary superblock's offset in its group is
not equal to offset of backup superblock in its group when block size
is 1K and bigalloc is enabled. As group descriptor blocks are right
after superblock, we can't pass block number of gdb to update_backups
for the same reason.
The root casue of the issue above is that leading 1K padding block is
count as data block offset for primary block while backup block has no
padding block offset in its group.
Remove padding data block count to fix the issue for gdb backups.
For meta_bg case, update_backups treat blk_off as block number, do no
conversion in this case.

If the start block of the orig_es entry founded is bigger than lblk, we

finally, the range to be counted is offset. This patch fix this by

the time spent may not be small, and we have observed cases exceeding
10ms. This patch makes running and commit transactions manage their own
free_data_list respectively, eliminating unnecessary traversal.
And in the callback phase of the commit transaction, no one will touch

function returns inconsistent values in the ext4_do_writepages() and
mpage_map_one_extent(). There are four conditions in this function that
can be changed at mount time to cause this problem. These four conditions
can be divided into two categories:
(1) journal_data and EXT4_EXTENTS_FL, which can be changed by ioctl
(2) DELALLOC and DIOREAD_NOLOCK, which can be changed by remount
The two in the first category have been fixed by commit c8585c6fca
("ext4: fix races between changing inode journal mode and ext4_writepages")
and commit cb85f4d23f ("ext4: fix race between writepages and enabling
EXT4_EXTENTS_FL") respectively.
Two cases in the other category have not yet been fixed, and the above
issue is caused by this situation. We refer to the fix for the first
category, when applying options during remount, we grab s_writepages_rwsem
to avoid racing with writepages ops to trigger this problem.

There are few creative offenders uncovered for example in ARCH=amd64

The dual rule that drivers must not reference .init.* is implemented

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Make sure 32-bit applications using user events have aligned access
when running on a 64-bit kernel.
- Add cond_resched in the loop that handles converting enums in
print_fmt string is trace events.
- Fix premature wake ups of polling processes in the tracing ring
buffer. When a task polls waiting for a percentage of the ring buffer
to be filled, the writer still will wake it up at every event. Add
the polling's percentage to the "shortest_full" list to tell the
writer when to wake it up.
- For eventfs dir lookups on dynamic events, an event system's only
event could be removed, leaving its dentry with no children. This is
totally legitimate. But in eventfs_release() it must not access the
children array, as it is only allocated when the dentry has children.
* tag 'trace-v6.6-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
eventfs: Test for dentries array allocated in eventfs_release()
tracing/user_events: Align set_bit() address for all archs
tracing: relax trace_event_eval_update() execution with cond_resched()
ring-buffer: Update "shortest_full" in polling
All architectures should use a long aligned address passed to set_bit().
User processes can pass either a 32-bit or 64-bit sized value to be
updated when tracing is enabled when on a 64-bit kernel. Both cases are
ensured to be naturally aligned, however, that is not enough. The
address must be long aligned without affecting checks on the value
within the user process which require different adjustments for the bit
for little and big endian CPUs.
Add a compat flag to user_event_enabler that indicates when a 32-bit
value is being used on a 64-bit kernel. Long align addresses and correct
the bit to be used by set_bit() to account for this alignment. Ensure
compat flags are copied during forks and used during deletion clears.

When kernel is compiled without preemption, the eval_map_work_func()
(which calls trace_event_eval_update()) will not be preempted up to its
complete execution. This can actually cause a problem since if another
CPU call stop_machine(), the call will have to wait for the
eval_map_work_func() function to finish executing in the workqueue
before being able to be scheduled. This problem was observe on a SMP
system at boot time, when the CPU calling the initcalls executed
clocksource_done_booting() which in the end calls stop_machine(). We
observed a 1 second delay because one CPU was executing
eval_map_work_func() and was not preempted by the stop_machine() task.
Adding a call to cond_resched() in trace_event_eval_update() allows
other tasks to be executed and thus continue working asynchronously
like before without blocking any pending task at boot time.

It was discovered that the ring buffer polling was incorrectly stating
that read would not block, but that's because polling did not take into
account that reads will block if the "buffer-percent" was set. Instead,
the ring buffer polling would say reads would not block if there was any
data in the ring buffer. This was incorrect behavior from a user space
point of view. This was fixed by commit 42fb0a1e84 by having the polling
code check if the ring buffer had more data than what the user specified
"buffer percent" had.
The problem now is that the polling code did not register itself to the
writer that it wanted to wait for a specific "full" value of the ring
buffer. The result was that the writer would wake the polling waiter
whenever there was a new event. The polling waiter would then wake up, see
that there's not enough data in the ring buffer to notify user space and
then go back to sleep. The next event would wake it up again.
Before the polling fix was added, the code would wake up around 100 times
for a hackbench 30 benchmark. After the "fix", due to the constant waking
of the writer, it would wake up over 11,0000 times! It would never leave
the kernel, so the user space behavior was still "correct", but this
definitely is not the desired effect.
To fix this, have the polling code add what it's waiting for to the
"shortest_full" variable, to tell the writer not to wake it up if the
buffer is not as full as it expects to be.
Note, after this fix, it appears that the waiter is now woken up around 2x
the times it was before (~200). This is a tremendous improvement from the
11,000 times, but I will need to spend some time to see why polling is
more aggressive in its wakeups than the read blocking code.
