ext4: sanity check for NULL pointer after ext4_force_shutdown

ext4: sanity check for NULL pointer after ext4_force_shutdown

[ Upstream commit 83f4414b8f84249d538905825b088ff3ae555652 ]

Test case: 2 threads write short inline data to a file.
In ext4_page_mkwrite the resulting inline data is converted.
Handling ext4_grp_locked_error with description "block bitmap
and bg descriptor inconsistent: X vs Y free clusters" calls
ext4_force_shutdown. The conversion clears
EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA but fails for
ext4_destroy_inline_data_nolock and ext4_mark_iloc_dirty due
to ext4_forced_shutdown. The restoration of inline data fails
for the same reason not setting EXT4_STATE_MAY_INLINE_DATA.
Without the flag set a regular process path in ext4_da_write_end
follows trying to dereference page folio private pointer that has
not been set. The fix calls early return with -EIO error shall the
pointer to private be NULL.

Sample crash report:

iomap: add a workaround for racy i_size updates on block devices

A szybot reproducer that does write I/O while truncating the size of a
block device can end up in clean_bdev_aliases, which tries to clean the
bdev aliases that it uses. This is because iomap_to_bh automatically
sets the BH_New flag when outside of i_size. For block devices updates
to i_size are racy and we can hit this case in a tiny race window,
leading to the eventual clean_bdev_aliases call. Fix this by erroring
out of > i_size I/O on block devices.

iomap: handle error conditions more gracefully in iomap_to_bh

iomap_to_bh currently BUG()s when the passed in block number is not
in the iomap. For file systems that have proper synchronization this
should never happen and so far hasn't in mainline, but for block devices
size changes aren't fully synchronized against ongoing I/O. Instead
of BUG()ing in this case, return -EIO to the caller, which already has
proper error handling. While we're at it, also return -EIO for an
unknown iomap state instead of returning garbage.

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.super' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull superblock updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the super rework that was ready for this cycle. The
first part changes the order of how we open block devices and allocate
superblocks, contains various cleanups, simplifications, and a new
mechanism to wait on superblock state changes.

This unblocks work to ultimately limit the number of writers to a
block device. Jan has already scheduled follow-up work that will be
ready for v6.7 and allows us to restrict the number of writers to a
given block device. That series builds on this work right here.

The second part contains filesystem freezing updates.

Overview:

The generic superblock changes are rougly organized as follows
(ignoring additional minor cleanups):

(1) Removal of the bd_super member from struct block_device.

This was a very odd back pointer to struct super_block with
unclear rules. For all relevant places we have other means to get
the same information so just get rid of this.

(2) Simplify rules for superblock cleanup.

Roughly, everything that is allocated during fs_context
initialization and that's stored in fs_context->s_fs_info needs
to be cleaned up by the fs_context->free() implementation before
the superblock allocation function has been called successfully.

After sget_fc() returned fs_context->s_fs_info has been
transferred to sb->s_fs_info at which point sb->kill_sb() if
fully responsible for cleanup. Adhering to these rules means that
cleanup of sb->s_fs_info in fill_super() is to be avoided as it's
brittle and inconsistent.

Cleanup shouldn't be duplicated between sb->put_super() as
sb->put_super() is only called if sb->s_root has been set aka
when the filesystem has been successfully born (SB_BORN). That
complexity should be avoided.

This also means that block devices are to be closed in
sb->kill_sb() instead of sb->put_super(). More details in the
lower section.

(3) Make it possible to lookup or create a superblock before opening
block devices

There's a subtle dependency on (2) as some filesystems did rely
on fill_super() to be called in order to correctly clean up
sb->s_fs_info. All these filesystems have been fixed.

(4) Switch most filesystem to follow the same logic as the generic
mount code now does as outlined in (3).

(5) Use the superblock as the holder of the block device. We can now
easily go back from block device to owning superblock.

(6) Export and extend the generic fs_holder_ops and use them as
holder ops everywhere and remove the filesystem specific holder
ops.

(7) Call from the block layer up into the filesystem layer when the
block device is removed, allowing to shut down the filesystem
without risk of deadlocks.

(8) Get rid of get_super().

We can now easily go back from the block device to owning
superblock and can call up from the block layer into the
filesystem layer when the device is removed. So no need to wade
through all registered superblock to find the owning superblock
anymore"

Merge tag 'v6.6-vfs.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs

Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains the usual miscellaneous features, cleanups, and fixes
for vfs and individual filesystems.

Features:

- Block mode changes on symlinks and rectify our broken semantics

- Report file modifications via fsnotify() for splice

- Allow specifying an explicit timeout for the "rootwait" kernel
command line option. This allows to timeout and reboot instead of
always waiting indefinitely for the root device to show up

- Use synchronous fput for the close system call

Cleanups:

- Get rid of open-coded lockdep workarounds for async io submitters
and replace it all with a single consolidated helper

- Simplify epoll allocation helper

- Convert simple_write_begin and simple_write_end to use a folio

- Convert page_cache_pipe_buf_confirm() to use a folio

- Simplify __range_close to avoid pointless locking

- Disable per-cpu buffer head cache for isolated cpus

- Port ecryptfs to kmap_local_page() api

- Remove redundant initialization of pointer buf in pipe code

- Unexport the d_genocide() function which is only used within core
vfs

- Replace printk(KERN_ERR) and WARN_ON() with WARN()

Fixes:

- Fix various kernel-doc issues

- Fix refcount underflow for eventfds when used as EFD_SEMAPHORE

- Fix a mainly theoretical issue in devpts

- Check the return value of __getblk() in reiserfs

- Fix a racy assert in i_readcount_dec

- Fix integer conversion issues in various functions

- Fix LSM security context handling during automounts that prevented
NFS superblock sharing"

fs/buffer.c: disable per-CPU buffer_head cache for isolated CPUs

For certain types of applications (for example PLC software or
RAN processing), upon occurrence of an event, it is necessary to
complete a certain task in a maximum amount of time (deadline).

One way to express this requirement is with a pair of numbers,
deadline time and execution time, where:

* deadline time: length of time between event and deadline.
* execution time: length of time it takes for processing of event
to occur on a particular hardware platform
(uninterrupted).

The particular values depend on use-case. For the case
where the realtime application executes in a virtualized
guest, an IPI which must be serviced in the host will cause
the following sequence of events:

1) VM-exit
2) execution of IPI (and function call)
3) VM-entry

Which causes an excess of 50us latency as observed by cyclictest
(this violates the latency requirement of vRAN application with 1ms TTI,
for example).

invalidate_bh_lrus calls an IPI on each CPU that has non empty
per-CPU cache:

on_each_cpu_cond(has_bh_in_lru, invalidate_bh_lru, NULL, 1);

The performance when using the per-CPU LRU cache is as follows:

42 ns per __find_get_block
68 ns per __find_get_block_slow

Given that the main use cases for latency sensitive applications
do not involve block I/O (data necessary for program operation is
locked in RAM), disable per-CPU buffer_head caches for isolated CPUs.

fs: stop using bdev->bd_super in mark_buffer_write_io_error

bdev->bd_super is a somewhat awkward backpointer from a block device to
an owning file system with unclear rules.

For the buffer_head code we already have a good backpointer for the
inode that the buffer_head is associated with, even if it lives on the
block device mapping: b_assoc_map. It is used track dirty buffers
associated with an inode but living on the block device mapping like
directory buffers in ext4.

mark_buffer_write_io_error already uses it for the call to
mapping_set_error, and should be doing the same for the per-sb error
sequence.
