must assign that in ->fill_super().

for now, assuming they have been especially audited.
But in general it should be safe for all file systems

Caveat: the hardware error handler does not take i_mutex
for now before calling the truncate function. Is that ok?

Add the high level memory handler that poisons pages
that got corrupted by hardware (typically by a two bit flip in a DIMM
or a cache) on the Linux level. The goal is to prevent everyone
from accessing these pages in the future.
This done at the VM level by marking a page hwpoisoned
and doing the appropriate action based on the type of page
it is.
The code that does this is portable and lives in mm/memory-failure.c
To quote the overview comment:
High level machine check handler. Handles pages reported by the
hardware as being corrupted usually due to a 2bit ECC memory or cache
failure.
This focuses on pages detected as corrupted in the background.
When the current CPU tries to consume corruption the currently
running process can just be killed directly instead. This implies
that if the error cannot be handled for some reason it's safe to
just ignore it because no corruption has been consumed yet. Instead
when that happens another machine check will happen.
Handles page cache pages in various states. The tricky part
here is that we can access any page asynchronous to other VM
users, because memory failures could happen anytime and anywhere,
possibly violating some of their assumptions. This is why this code
has to be extremely careful. Generally it tries to use normal locking
rules, as in get the standard locks, even if that means the
error handling takes potentially a long time.
Some of the operations here are somewhat inefficient and have non
linear algorithmic complexity, because the data structures have not
been optimized for this case. This is in particular the case
for the mapping from a vma to a process. Since this case is expected
to be rare we hope we can get away with this.
There are in principle two strategies to kill processes on poison:
- just unmap the data and wait for an actual reference before
killing
- kill as soon as corruption is detected.
Both have advantages and disadvantages and should be used
in different situations. Right now both are implemented and can
be switched with a new sysctl vm.memory_failure_early_kill
The default is early kill.
The patch does some rmap data structure walking on its own to collect
processes to kill. This is unusual because normally all rmap data structure
knowledge is in rmap.c only. I put it here for now to keep
everything together and rmap knowledge has been seeping out anyways

Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields <bfields@citi.umich.edu>
On setting up the callback to the client, we attempt to use the same
authentication flavor the client did. We find an rpc cred to use by
calling rpcauth_lookup_credcache(), which assumes that the given
authentication flavor has a credentials cache. However, this is not
required to be true--in particular, auth_null does not use one.
Instead, we should call the auth's lookup_cred() method.
Without this, a client attempting to mount using nfsv4 and auth_null
triggers a null dereference.

When we close a file, we remove preallocated blocks from it. But this
truncation was not protected by i_mutex and thus it could have raced with a
write through a different fd and cause crashes or even filesystem corruption.
Signed-off-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>
So far we preallocated blocks also for directories but that brings a
problem, when to get rid of preallocated blocks we don't need. So far
we removed them in udf_clear_inode() which has a disadvantage that
1) blocks are unavailable long after writing to a directory finished
and thus one can get out of space unnecessarily early
2) releasing blocks from udf_clear_inode is problematic because VFS
does not expect us to redirty inode there and it also slows down
memory reclaim.
So preallocate blocks only for regular files where we can drop preallocation
in udf_release_file.

Currenly vfs_fsync(_range) first calls filemap_fdatawrite to write out
the data, the calls into ->fsync to write out the metadata and then finally
calls filemap_fdatawait to wait for the data I/O to complete. What sounds
like a clever micro-optimization actually is nast trap for many filesystems.
For many modern filesystems i_size or other inode information is only
updated on I/O completion and we need to wait for I/O to finish before
we can write out the metadata. For old fashionen filesystems that
instanciate blocks during the actual write and also update the metadata
at that point it opens up a large window were we could expose uninitialized
blocks after a crash. While a few filesystems that need it already wait
for the I/O to finish inside their ->fsync methods it is rather suboptimal
as it is done under the i_mutex and also always for the whole file instead
of just a part as we could do for O_SYNC handling.
Here is a small audit of all fsync instances in the tree:
- spufs_mfc_fsync:
- ps3flash_fsync:
- vol_cdev_fsync:
- printer_fsync:
- fb_deferred_io_fsync:
- bad_file_fsync:
- simple_sync_file:
don't care - filesystems/drivers do't use the page cache or are
purely in-memory.
- simple_fsync:
- file_fsync:
- affs_file_fsync:
- fat_file_fsync:
- jfs_fsync:
- ubifs_fsync:
- reiserfs_dir_fsync:
- reiserfs_sync_file:
never touch pagecache themselves. We need to wait before if we do
not want to expose stale data after an allocation.
- afs_fsync:
- fuse_fsync_common:
do the waiting writeback itself in awkward ways, would benefit from
proper semantics
- block_fsync:
Does a filemap_write_and_wait on the block device inode. Because we
now have f_mapping that is the same inode we call it on in vfs_fsync.
So just removing it and letting the VFS do the work in one go would
be an improvement.
- btrfs_sync_file:
- cifs_fsync:
- xfs_file_fsync:
need the wait first and currently do it themselves. would benefit from
doing it outside i_mutex.
- coda_fsync:
- ecryptfs_fsync:
- exofs_file_fsync:
- shm_fsync:
only passes the fsync through to the lower layer
- ext3_sync_file:
doesn't seem to care, comments are confusing.
- ext4_sync_file:
would need the wait to work correctly for delalloc mode with late
i_size updates. Otherwise the ext3 comment applies.
currently implemens it's own writeback and wait in an odd way,
could benefit from doing it properly.
- gfs2_fsync:
not needed for journaled data mode, but probably harmless there.
Currently writes back data asynchronously itself. Needs some
major audit.
- hostfs_fsync:
just calls fsync/datasync on the host FD. Without the wait before
data might not even be inflight yet if we're unlucky.
- hpfs_file_fsync:
- ncp_fsync:
no-ops. Dangerous before and after.
- jffs2_fsync:
just calls jffs2_flush_wbuf_gc, not sure how this relates to data.
- nfs_fsync_dir:
just increments stats, claims all directory operations are synchronous
- nfs_file_fsync:
only writes out data??? Looks very odd.
- nilfs_sync_file:
looks like it expects all data done, but not sure from the code
- ntfs_dir_fsync:
- ntfs_file_fsync:
appear to do their own data writeback. Very convoluted code.
- ocfs2_sync_file:
does it's own data writeback, but no wait. probably needs the wait.
- smb_fsync:
according to a comment expects all pages written already, probably needs
the wait before.
This patch only changes vfs_fsync_range, removal of the wait in the methods
that have it is left to the filesystem maintainers. Note that most
filesystems really do need an audit for their fsync methods given the
gems found in this very brief audit.
