ext4: remove EA inode entry from mbcache on inode eviction

Currently we remove EA inode from mbcache as soon as its xattr refcount
drops to zero. However there can be pending attempts to reuse the inode
and thus refcount handling code has to handle the situation when
refcount increases from zero anyway. So save some work and just keep EA
inode in mbcache until it is getting evicted. At that moment we are sure
following iget() of EA inode will fail anyway (or wait for eviction to
finish and load things from the disk again) and so removing mbcache
entry at that moment is fine and simplifies the code a bit.

ext4: support xattr gnu.* namespace for the Hurd

The Hurd gained[0] support for moving the translator and author
fields out of the inode and into the "gnu.*" xattr namespace.

In anticipation of that, an xattr INDEX was reserved[1]. The Hurd has
now been brought into compliance[2] with that.

This patch adds support for reading and writing such attributes from
Linux; you can now do something like

mkdir -p hurd-root/servers/socket
touch hurd-root/servers/socket/1
setfattr --name=gnu.translator --value='"/hurd/pflocal\0"' \
hurd-root/servers/socket/1
getfattr --name=gnu.translator hurd-root/servers/socket/1
# file: 1
gnu.translator="/hurd/pflocal"

to setup a pipe translator, which is being used to create[3] a
vm-image for the Hurd from GNU Guix.

ext4: use flexible-array member for xattr structs

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

ext4: fix up remaining files with SPDX cleanups

A number of ext4 source files were skipped due because their copyright
permission statements didn't match the expected text used by the
automated conversion utilities. I've added SPDX tags for the rest.

While looking at some of these files, I've noticed that we have quite
a bit of variation on the licenses that were used --- in particular
some of the Red Hat licenses on the jbd2 files use a GPL2+ license,
and we have some files that have a LGPL-2.1 license (which was quite
surprising).

I've not attempted to do any license changes. Even if it is perfectly
legal to relicense to GPL 2.0-only for consistency's sake, that should
be done with ext4 developer community discussion.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

To avoid overallocating too many journal credits, update
__ext4_xattr_set_credits() to make a distinction between xattr create
vs update. This helps __ext4_new_inode() because all attributes are
known to be new, so we can save credits that are normally needed to
delete old values.

Also, have fscrypt specify its maximum context size so that we don't

quota: add get_inode_usage callback to transfer multi-inode charges

Ext4 ea_inode feature allows storing xattr values in external inodes to
be able to store values that are bigger than a block in size. Ext4 also
has deduplication support for these type of inodes. With deduplication,
the actual storage waste is eliminated but the users of such inodes are
still charged full quota for the inodes as if there was no sharing
happening in the background.

This design requires ext4 to manually charge the users because the
inodes are shared.

An implication of this is that, if someone calls chown on a file that
has such references we need to transfer the quota for the file and xattr
inodes. Current dquot_transfer() function implicitly transfers one inode
charge. With ea_inode feature, we would like to transfer multiple inode
charges.

Add get_inode_usage callback which can interrogate the total number of
inodes that were charged for a given inode.

ext4: xattr inode deduplication

Ext4 now supports xattr values that are up to 64k in size (vfs limit).
Large xattr values are stored in external inodes each one holding a
single value. Once written the data blocks of these inodes are immutable.

The real world use cases are expected to have a lot of value duplication
such as inherited acls etc. To reduce data duplication on disk, this patch
implements a deduplicator that allows sharing of xattr inodes.

The deduplication is based on an in-memory hash lookup that is a best
effort sharing scheme. When a xattr inode is read from disk (i.e.
getxattr() call), its crc32c hash is added to a hash table. Before
creating a new xattr inode for a value being set, the hash table is
checked to see if an existing inode holds an identical value. If such an
inode is found, the ref count on that inode is incremented. On value
removal the ref count is decremented and if it reaches zero the inode is
deleted.

The quota charging for such inodes is manually managed. Every reference
holder is charged the full size as if there was no sharing happening.
This is consistent with how xattr blocks are also charged.

rare case where an shared xattr block can get freed when two thread

ext4: xattr-in-inode support

Large xattr support is implemented for EXT4_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_EA_INODE.

If the size of an xattr value is larger than will fit in a single
external block, then the xattr value will be saved into the body
of an external xattr inode.

The also helps support a larger number of xattr, since only the headers
will be stored in the in-inode space or the single external block.

The inode is referenced from the xattr header via "e_value_inum",
which was formerly "e_value_block", but that field was never used.
The e_value_size still contains the xattr size so that listing
xattrs does not need to look up the inode if the data is not accessed.

struct ext4_xattr_entry {
__u8 e_name_len; /* length of name */
__u8 e_name_index; /* attribute name index */
__le16 e_value_offs; /* offset in disk block of value */
__le32 e_value_inum; /* inode in which value is stored */
__le32 e_value_size; /* size of attribute value */
__le32 e_hash; /* hash value of name and value */
char e_name[0]; /* attribute name */
};

The xattr inode is marked with the EXT4_EA_INODE_FL flag and also
holds a back-reference to the owning inode in its i_mtime field,
allowing the ext4/e2fsck to verify the correct inode is accessed.

[ Applied fix by Dan Carpenter to avoid freeing an ERR_PTR. ]

ext4: fix deadlock between inline_data and ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea()

The xattr_sem deadlock problems fixed in commit 2e81a4eeedca: "ext4:
avoid deadlock when expanding inode size" didn't include the use of
xattr_sem in fs/ext4/inline.c. With the addition of project quota
which added a new extra inode field, this exposed deadlocks in the
inline_data code similar to the ones fixed by 2e81a4eeedca.

The deadlock can be reproduced via:

dmesg -n 7
mke2fs -t ext4 -O inline_data -Fq -I 256 /dev/vdc 32768
mount -t ext4 -o debug_want_extra_isize=24 /dev/vdc /vdc
mkdir /vdc/a
umount /vdc
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdc /vdc
echo foo > /vdc/a/foo

and looks like this:

ext4: reserve xattr index for the Hurd

The Hurd is using inode fields which restricts it from using more
advanced ext4 file system features, due to design choices made over a
decade ago. By giving the Hurd an extended attribute index field we
allow it to move the translator and author fields out of the core
inode fields, and hopefully we can get rid of ugly hacks such as
EXT4_OS_HURD and EXT4_MOUNT2_HURD_COMPAT somday.

ext4: convert to mbcache2

The conversion is generally straightforward. The only tricky part is
that xattr block corresponding to found mbcache entry can get freed
before we get buffer lock for that block. So we have to check whether
the entry is still valid after getting buffer lock.
