ext4: fix warning in ext4_dio_write_end_io()

ext4: fix warning in ext4_dio_write_end_io()

[ Upstream commit 619f75dae2cf117b1d07f27b046b9ffb071c4685 ]

The syzbot has reported that it can hit the warning in
ext4_dio_write_end_io() because i_size < i_disksize. Indeed the
reproducer creates a race between DIO IO completion and truncate
expanding the file and thus ext4_dio_write_end_io() sees an inconsistent
inode state where i_disksize is already updated but i_size is not
updated yet. Since we are careful when setting up DIO write and consider
it extending (and thus performing the IO synchronously with i_rwsem held
exclusively) whenever it goes past either of i_size or i_disksize, we
can use the same test during IO completion without risking entering
ext4_handle_inode_extension() without i_rwsem held. This way we make it
obvious both i_size and i_disksize are large enough when we report DIO
completion without relying on unreliable WARN_ON.

ext4: fix racy may inline data check in dio write

commit ce56d21355cd6f6937aca32f1f44ca749d1e4808 upstream.

syzbot reports that the following warning from ext4_iomap_begin()
triggers as of the commit referenced below:

if (WARN_ON_ONCE(ext4_has_inline_data(inode)))
return -ERANGE;

This occurs during a dio write, which is never expected to encounter
an inode with inline data. To enforce this behavior,
ext4_dio_write_iter() checks the current inline state of the inode
and clears the MAY_INLINE_DATA state flag to either fall back to
buffered writes, or enforce that any other writers in progress on
the inode are not allowed to create inline data.

The problem is that the check for existing inline data and the state
flag can span a lock cycle. For example, if the ilock is originally
locked shared and subsequently upgraded to exclusive, another writer
may have reacquired the lock and created inline data before the dio
write task acquires the lock and proceeds.

The commit referenced below loosens the lock requirements to allow
some forms of unaligned dio writes to occur under shared lock, but
AFAICT the inline data check was technically already racy for any
dio write that would have involved a lock cycle. Regardless, lift
clearing of the state bit to the same lock critical section that
checks for preexisting inline data on the inode to close the race.

ext4: properly sync file size update after O_SYNC direct IO

ext4: properly sync file size update after O_SYNC direct IO

commit 91562895f8030cb9a0470b1db49de79346a69f91 upstream.

Gao Xiang has reported that on ext4 O_SYNC direct IO does not properly
sync file size update and thus if we crash at unfortunate moment, the
file can have smaller size although O_SYNC IO has reported successful
completion. The problem happens because update of on-disk inode size is
handled in ext4_dio_write_iter() *after* iomap_dio_rw() (and thus
dio_complete() in particular) has returned and generic_file_sync() gets
called by dio_complete(). Fix the problem by handling on-disk inode size
update directly in our ->end_io completion handler.

the

ext4: drop dio overwrite only flag and associated warning

The commit referenced below opened up concurrent unaligned dio under
shared locking for pure overwrites. In doing so, it enabled use of
the IOMAP_DIO_OVERWRITE_ONLY flag and added a warning on unexpected
-EAGAIN returns as an extra precaution, since ext4 does not retry
writes in such cases. The flag itself is advisory in this case since
ext4 checks for unaligned I/Os and uses appropriate locking up
front, rather than on a retry in response to -EAGAIN.

As it turns out, the warning check is susceptible to false positives
because there are scenarios where -EAGAIN can be expected from lower
layers without necessarily having IOCB_NOWAIT set on the iocb. For
example, one instance of the warning has been seen where io_uring
sets IOCB_HIPRI, which in turn results in REQ_POLLED|REQ_NOWAIT on
the bio. This results in -EAGAIN if the block layer is unable to
allocate a request, etc. [Note that there is an outstanding patch to
untangle REQ_POLLED and REQ_NOWAIT such that the latter relies on
IOCB_NOWAIT, which would also address this instance of the warning.]

Another instance of the warning has been reproduced by syzbot. A dio
write is interrupted down in __get_user_pages_locked() waiting on
the mm lock and returns -EAGAIN up the stack. If the iomap dio
iteration layer has made no progress on the write to this point,
-EAGAIN returns up to the filesystem and triggers the warning.

This use of the overwrite flag in ext4 is precautionary and
half-baked. I.e., ext4 doesn't actually implement overwrite checking
in the iomap callbacks when the flag is set, so the only extra
verification it provides are i_size checks in the generic iomap dio
layer. Combined with the tendency for false positives, the added
verification is not worth the extra trouble. Remove the flag,
associated warning, and update the comments to document when
concurrent unaligned dio writes are allowed and why said flag is not
used.

ext4: allow concurrent unaligned dio overwrites

We've had reports of significant performance regression of sub-block
(unaligned) direct writes due to the added exclusivity restrictions
in ext4. The purpose of the exclusivity requirement for unaligned
direct writes is to avoid data corruption caused by unserialized
partial block zeroing in the iomap dio layer across overlapping
writes.

XFS has similar requirements for the same underlying reasons, yet
doesn't suffer the extreme performance regression that ext4 does.
The reason for this is that XFS utilizes IOMAP_DIO_OVERWRITE_ONLY
mode, which allows for optimistic submission of concurrent unaligned
I/O and kicks back writes that require partial block zeroing such
that they can be submitted in a safe, exclusive context. Since ext4
already performs most of these checks pre-submission, it can support
something similar without necessarily relying on the iomap flag and
associated retry mechanism.

Update the dio write submission path to allow concurrent submission
of unaligned direct writes that are purely overwrite and so will not
require block zeroing. To improve readability of the various related
checks, move the unaligned I/O handling down into
ext4_dio_write_checks(), where the dio draining and force wait logic
can immediately follow the locking requirement checks. Finally, the
IOMAP_DIO_OVERWRITE_ONLY flag is set to enable a warning check as a
precaution should the ext4 overwrite logic ever become inconsistent
with the zeroing expectations of iomap dio.

The performance improvement of sub-block direct write I/O is shown
in the following fio test on a 64xcpu guest vm:

Test: fio --name=test --ioengine=libaio --direct=1 --group_reporting
--overwrite=1 --thread --size=10G --filename=/mnt/fio
--readwrite=write --ramp_time=10s --runtime=60s --numjobs=8
--blocksize=2k --iodepth=256 --allow_file_create=0

fs: rename current get acl method

The current way of setting and getting posix acls through the generic
xattr interface is error prone and type unsafe. The vfs needs to
interpret and fixup posix acls before storing or reporting it to
userspace. Various hacks exist to make this work. The code is hard to
understand and difficult to maintain in it's current form. Instead of
making this work by hacking posix acls through xattr handlers we are
building a dedicated posix acl api around the get and set inode
operations. This removes a lot of hackiness and makes the codepaths
easier to maintain. A lot of background can be found in [1].

The current inode operation for getting posix acls takes an inode
argument but various filesystems (e.g., 9p, cifs, overlayfs) need access
to the dentry. In contrast to the ->set_acl() inode operation we cannot
simply extend ->get_acl() to take a dentry argument. The ->get_acl()
inode operation is called from:

acl_permission_check()
-> check_acl()
-> get_acl()

which is part of generic_permission() which in turn is part of
inode_permission(). Both generic_permission() and inode_permission() are
called in the ->permission() handler of various filesystems (e.g.,
overlayfs). So simply passing a dentry argument to ->get_acl() would
amount to also having to pass a dentry argument to ->permission(). We
should avoid this unnecessary change.

So instead of extending the existing inode operation rename it from
->get_acl() to ->get_inode_acl() and add a ->get_acl() method later that
passes a dentry argument and which filesystems that need access to the
dentry can implement instead of ->get_inode_acl(). Filesystems like cifs
which allow setting and getting posix acls but not using them for
permission checking during lookup can simply not implement
->get_inode_acl().

This is intended to be a non-functional change.

ext4: avoid crash when inline data creation follows DIO write

When inode is created and written to using direct IO, there is nothing
to clear the EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA flag. Thus when inode gets
truncated later to say 1 byte and written using normal write, we will
try to store the data as inline data. This confuses the code later
because the inode now has both normal block and inline data allocated
and the confusion manifests for example as:

fscrypt: change fscrypt_dio_supported() to prepare for STATX_DIOALIGN

To prepare for STATX_DIOALIGN support, make two changes to
fscrypt_dio_supported().

First, remove the filesystem-block-alignment check and make the
filesystems handle it instead. It previously made sense to have it in
fs/crypto/; however, to support STATX_DIOALIGN the alignment restriction
would have to be returned to filesystems. It ends up being simpler if
filesystems handle this part themselves, especially for f2fs which only
allows fs-block-aligned DIO in the first place.

Second, make fscrypt_dio_supported() work on inodes whose encryption key
hasn't been set up yet, by making it set up the key if needed. This is
required for statx(), since statx() doesn't require a file descriptor.

ext4: support direct I/O with fscrypt using blk-crypto

Encrypted files traditionally haven't supported DIO, due to the need to
encrypt/decrypt the data. However, when the encryption is implemented
using inline encryption (blk-crypto) instead of the traditional
filesystem-layer encryption, it is straightforward to support DIO.

Therefore, make ext4 support DIO on files that are using inline
encryption. Since ext4 uses iomap for DIO, and fscrypt support was
already added to iomap DIO, this just requires two small changes:

- Let DIO proceed when supported, by checking fscrypt_dio_supported()
instead of assuming that encrypted files never support DIO.

- In ext4_iomap_begin(), use fscrypt_limit_io_blocks() to limit the
length of the mapping in the rare case where a DUN discontiguity
occurs in the middle of an extent. The iomap DIO implementation
requires this, since it assumes that it can submit a bio covering (up
to) the whole mapping, without checking fscrypt constraints itself.

This patch drops all calls to ext4_fc_start_update() and

report that done_before additional bytes were tranferred. This is
useful for finishing a request asynchronously when part of the request
has already been completed synchronously.

We'll use that to allow iomap_dio_rw to be used with page faults
disabled: when a page fault occurs while submitting a request, we
synchronously complete the part of the request that has already been
submitted. The caller can then take care of the page fault and call
iomap_dio_rw again for the rest of the request, passing in the number of
bytes already tranferred.

block: switch polling to be bio based

Replace the blk_poll interface that requires the caller to keep a queue
and cookie from the submissions with polling based on the bio.

Polling for the bio itself leads to a few advantages:

- the cookie construction can made entirely private in blk-mq.c
- the caller does not need to remember the request_queue and cookie
separately and thus sidesteps their lifetime issues
- keeping the device and the cookie inside the bio allows to trivially
support polling BIOs remapping by stacking drivers
- a lot of code to propagate the cookie back up the submission path can
be removed entirely.

When inode is created and written to using direct IO, there is nothing
to clear the EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA flag. Thus when inode gets
truncated later to say 1 byte and written using normal write, we will
try to store the data as inline data. This confuses the code later
because the inode now has both normal block and inline data allocated
and the confusion manifests for example as:
