If we readahead inode tables in __ext4_get_inode_loc(), it may bypass
buffer_write_io_error() check, so introduce ext4_sb_breadahead_unmovable()
to handle this special case.
This patch also replace sb_breadahead_unmovable() in ext4_fill_super()
for the sake of unification.

The previous patch add clear_buffer_verified() before we read metadata
block from disk again, but it's rather easy to miss clearing of this bit
because currently we read metadata buffer through different open codes
(e.g. ll_rw_block(), bh_submit_read() and invoke submit_bh() directly).
So, it's time to add common helpers to unify in all the places reading
metadata buffers instead. This patch add 3 helpers:
- ext4_read_bh_nowait(): async read metadata buffer if it's actually
not uptodate, clear buffer_verified bit before read from disk.
- ext4_read_bh(): sync version of read metadata buffer, it will wait
until the read operation return and check the return status.
- ext4_read_bh_lock(): try to lock the buffer before read buffer, it
will skip reading if the buffer is already locked.
After this patch, we need to use these helpers in all the places reading
metadata buffer instead of different open codes.

The metadata buffer is no longer trusted after we read it from disk
again because it is not uptodate for some reasons (e.g. failed to write
back). Otherwise we may get below memory corruption problem in
ext4_ext_split()->memset() if we read stale data from the newly
allocated extent block on disk which has been failed to async write
out but miss verify again since the verified bit has already been set
on the buffer.

Consider a situation when a filesystem was uncleanly shutdown and the
orphan list is not empty and a read-only mount is attempted. The orphan
list cleanup during mount will fail with:
ext4_check_bdev_write_error:193: comm mount: Error while async write back metadata
This happens because sbi->s_bdev_wb_err is not initialized when mounting
the filesystem in read only mode and so ext4_check_bdev_write_error()
falsely triggers.
Initialize sbi->s_bdev_wb_err unconditionally to avoid this problem.

The race condition could cause the persisted superblock checksum
to not match the contents of the superblock, causing the
superblock to be considered corrupt.
An example of the race follows. A first thread is interrupted in the
middle of a checksum calculation. Then, another thread changes the
superblock, calculates a new checksum, and sets it. Then, the first
thread resumes and sets the checksum based on the older superblock.
To fix, serialize the superblock checksum calculation using the buffer
header lock. While a spinlock is sufficient, the buffer header is
already there and there is precedent for locking it (e.g. in
ext4_commit_super).
Tested the patch by booting up a kernel with the patch, creating
a filesystem and some files (including some orphans), and then
unmounting and remounting the file system.

In the scenario of writing sparse files, the per-inode prealloc list may
be very long, resulting in high overhead for ext4_mb_use_preallocated().
To circumvent this problem, we limit the maximum length of per-inode
prealloc list to 512 and allow users to modify it.
After patching, we observed that the sys ratio of cpu has dropped, and
the system throughput has increased significantly. We created a process
to write the sparse file, and the running time of the process on the
fixed kernel was significantly reduced, as follows:
Running time on unfixed kernel:

If a device is hot-removed --- for example, when a physical device is
unplugged from pcie slot or a nbd device's network is shutdown ---
this can result in a BUG_ON() crash in submit_bh_wbc(). This is
because the when the block device dies, the buffer heads will have
their Buffer_Mapped flag get cleared, leading to the crash in
submit_bh_wbc.
We had attempted to work around this problem in commit a17712c8
("ext4: check superblock mapped prior to committing"). Unfortunately,
it's still possible to hit the BUG_ON(!buffer_mapped(bh)) if the
device dies between when the work-around check in ext4_commit_super()
and when submit_bh_wbh() is finally called:

When remounting filesystem fails late during remount handling and
block_validity mount option is also changed during the remount, we fail
to restore system zone information to a state matching the mount option.
This is mostly harmless, just the block validity checking will not match
the situation described by the mount option. Make sure these two are always
consistent.

Currently there is a problem with mount options that can be both set by
vfs using mount flags or by a string parsing in ext4.
i_version/iversion options gets lost after remount, for example
$ mount -o i_version /dev/pmem0 /mnt
$ grep pmem0 /proc/self/mountinfo | grep i_version
310 95 259:0 / /mnt rw,relatime shared:163 - ext4 /dev/pmem0 rw,seclabel,i_version
$ mount -o remount,ro /mnt
$ grep pmem0 /proc/self/mountinfo | grep i_version
nolazytime gets ignored by ext4 on remount, for example
$ mount -o lazytime /dev/pmem0 /mnt
$ grep pmem0 /proc/self/mountinfo | grep lazytime
310 95 259:0 / /mnt rw,relatime shared:163 - ext4 /dev/pmem0 rw,lazytime,seclabel
$ mount -o remount,nolazytime /mnt
$ grep pmem0 /proc/self/mountinfo | grep lazytime
310 95 259:0 / /mnt rw,relatime shared:163 - ext4 /dev/pmem0 rw,lazytime,seclabel
Fix it by applying the SB_LAZYTIME and SB_I_VERSION flags from *flags to
s_flags before we parse the option and use the resulting state of the
same flags in *flags at the end of successful remount.

For file systems where we can afford to keep the buddy bitmaps cached,
we can speed up initial writes to large file systems by starting to
load the block allocation bitmaps as soon as the file system is
mounted. This won't work well for _super_ large file systems, or
memory constrained systems, so we only enable this when it is
requested via a mount option.

There is a risk of filesystem inconsistency if we failed to async write
back metadata buffer in the background. Because of current buffer's end
io procedure is handled by end_buffer_async_write() in the block layer,
and it only clear the buffer's uptodate flag and mark the write_io_error
flag, so ext4 cannot detect such failure immediately. In most cases of
getting metadata buffer (e.g. ext4_read_inode_bitmap()), although the
buffer's data is actually uptodate, it may still read data from disk
because the buffer's uptodate flag has been cleared. Finally, it may
lead to on-disk filesystem inconsistency if reading old data from the
disk successfully and write them out again.
This patch detect bdev mapping->wb_err when getting journal's write
access and mark the filesystem error if bdev's mapping->wb_err was
increased, this could prevent further writing and potential
inconsistency.

A customer has reported a BUG_ON in ext4_clear_journal_err() hitting
during an LTP testing. Either this has been caused by a test setup
issue where the filesystem was being overwritten while LTP was mounting
it or the journal replay has overwritten the superblock with invalid
data. In either case it is preferable we don't take the machine down
with a BUG_ON. So handle the situation of unexpectedly missing
has_journal feature more gracefully. We issue warning and fail the mount
in the cases where the race window is narrow and the failed check is
most likely a programming error. In cases where fs corruption is more

Wire up ext4 to support inline encryption via the helper functions which
fs/crypto/ now provides. This includes:
- Adding a mount option 'inlinecrypt' which enables inline encryption
on encrypted files where it can be used.
- Setting the bio_crypt_ctx on bios that will be submitted to an
inline-encrypted file.
Note: submit_bh_wbc() in fs/buffer.c also needed to be patched for
this part, since ext4 sometimes uses ll_rw_block() on file data.
- Not adding logically discontiguous data to bios that will be submitted
to an inline-encrypted file.
- Not doing filesystem-layer crypto on inline-encrypted files.

In the ext4 filesystem with errors=panic, if one process is recording
errno in the superblock when invoking jbd2_journal_abort() due to some
error cases, it could be raced by another __ext4_abort() which is
setting the SB_RDONLY flag but missing panic because errno has not been
recorded.

Finally, it will no longer trigger panic because the filesystem has
already been set read-only. Fix this by introduce j_abort_mutex to make

Trying to change dax mount options when remounting could allow mount

In the case of "mount -o remount,dax", this can cause a race where

ext4_mark_inode_dirty() can fail for real reasons. Ignoring its return
value may lead ext4 to ignore real failures that would result in
corruption / crashes. Harden ext4_mark_inode_dirty error paths to fail
as soon as possible and return errors to the caller whenever
appropriate.
One of the possible scnearios when this bug could affected is that
while creating a new inode, its directory entry gets added
successfully but while writing the inode itself mark_inode_dirty
returns error which is ignored. This would result in inconsistency
that the directory entry points to a non-existent inode.
Ran gce-xfstests smoke tests and verified that there were no
regressions.

Add a flag ([EXT4|FS]_DAX_FL) to preserve FS_XFLAG_DAX in the ext4
inode.
Set the flag to be user visible and changeable. Set the flag to be
inherited. Allow applications to change the flag at any time except if
it conflicts with the set of mutually exclusive flags (Currently VERITY,
ENCRYPT, JOURNAL_DATA).
Furthermore, restrict setting any of the exclusive flags if DAX is set.
While conceptually possible, we do not allow setting EXT4_DAX_FL while
at the same time clearing exclusion flags (or vice versa) for 2 reasons:
1) The DAX flag does not take effect immediately which
introduces quite a bit of complexity
2) There is no clear use case for being this flexible
Finally, on regular files, flag the inode to not be cached to facilitate
changing S_DAX on the next creation of the inode.

We add 'always', 'never', and 'inode' (default). '-o dax' continues to
operate the same which is equivalent to 'always'. This new
functionality is limited to ext4 only.
Specifically we introduce a 2nd DAX mount flag EXT4_MOUNT2_DAX_NEVER and set
it and EXT4_MOUNT_DAX_ALWAYS appropriately for the mode.
We also force EXT4_MOUNT2_DAX_NEVER if !CONFIG_FS_DAX.
Finally, EXT4_MOUNT2_DAX_INODE is used solely to detect if the user
specified that option for printing.

v1 encryption policies are deprecated in favor of v2, and some new
features (e.g. encryption+casefolding) are only being added for v2.
Therefore, the "test_dummy_encryption" mount option (which is used for
encryption I/O testing with xfstests) needs to support v2 policies.
To do this, extend its syntax to be "test_dummy_encryption=v1" or
"test_dummy_encryption=v2". The existing "test_dummy_encryption" (no
argument) also continues to be accepted, to specify the default setting
-- currently v1, but the next patch changes it to v2.
To cleanly support both v1 and v2 while also making it easy to support
specifying other encryption settings in the future (say, accepting
"$contents_mode:$filenames_mode:v2"), make ext4 and f2fs maintain a
pointer to the dummy fscrypt_context rather than using mount flags.
To avoid concurrency issues, don't allow test_dummy_encryption to be set
or changed during a remount. (The former restriction is new, but
xfstests doesn't run into it, so no one should notice.)
Tested with 'gce-xfstests -c {ext4,f2fs}/encrypt -g auto'. On ext4,
there are two regressions, both of which are test bugs: ext4/023 and
ext4/028 fail because they set an xattr and expect it to be stored
inline, but the increase in size of the fscrypt_context from
24 to 40 bytes causes this xattr to be spilled into an external block.

Since commit a8ac900b81 ("ext4: use non-movable memory for the
superblock") buffers for ext4 superblock were allocated using
the sb_bread_unmovable() helper which allocated buffer heads
out of non-movable memory blocks. It was necessarily to not block
page migrations and do not cause cma allocation failures.
However commit 85c8f176a6 ("ext4: preload block group descriptors")
broke this by introducing pre-reading of the ext4 superblock.
The problem is that __breadahead() is using __getblk() underneath,
which allocates buffer heads out of movable memory.
It resulted in page migration failures I've seen on a machine
with an ext4 partition and a preallocated cma area.
Fix this by introducing sb_breadahead_unmovable() and
__breadahead_gfp() helpers which use non-movable memory for buffer
head allocations and use them for the ext4 superblock readahead.

ext4_fill_super doublechecks the number of groups before mounting; if
that check fails, the resulting error message prints the group count
from the ext4_sb_info sbi, which hasn't been set yet. Print the freshly
computed group count instead (which at that point has just been computed
in "blocks_count").

If ext4_fill_super detects an invalid number of inodes per group, the
resulting error message printed the number of blocks per group, rather
than the number of inodes per group. Fix it to print the correct value.

Currently on calling echo 3 > drop_caches on host machine, we see
FS corruption in the guest. This happens on Power machine where
blocksize < pagesize.
So as a temporary workaound don't enable dioread_nolock by default
for blocksize < pagesize until we identify the root cause.
Also emit a warning msg in case if this mount option is manually
enabled for blocksize < pagesize.

Under some circumstances we may encounter a filesystem error on a
read-only block device, and if we try to save the error info to the
superblock and commit it, we'll wind up with a noisy error and
backtrace, i.e.:
[ 3337.146838] EXT4-fs error (device pmem1p2): ext4_get_journal_inode:4634: comm mount: inode #0: comm mount: iget: illegal inode #
------------[ cut here ]------------
generic_make_request: Trying to write to read-only block-device pmem1p2 (partno 2)
WARNING: CPU: 107 PID: 115347 at block/blk-core.c:788 generic_make_request_checks+0x6b4/0x7d0
...
To avoid this, commit the error info in the superblock only if the
block device is writable.
