Currently the handling of huge pages for DAX is racy. For example the
following can happen:
CPU0 (THP write fault) CPU1 (normal read fault)
__dax_pmd_fault() __dax_fault()
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0) -> not mapped
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 0)
-> not mapped
if (!buffer_mapped(&bh) && write)
get_block(inode, block, &bh, 1) -> allocates blocks
truncate_pagecache_range(inode, lstart, lend);
dax_load_hole();
This results in data corruption since process on CPU1 won't see changes
into the file done by CPU0.
The race can happen even if two normal faults race however with THP the
situation is even worse because the two faults don't operate on the same
entries in the radix tree and we want to use these entries for
serialization. So make THP support in DAX code depend on CONFIG_BROKEN
for now.

In the truncate or hole-punch path in dax, we clear out sub-page ranges.
If these sub-page ranges are sector aligned and sized, we can do the
zeroing through the driver instead so that error-clearing is handled
automatically.
For sub-sector ranges, we still have to rely on clear_pmem and have the
possibility of tripping over errors.

Currently ext4 treats DAX IO the same way as direct IO. I.e., it
allocates unwritten extents before IO is done and converts unwritten
extents afterwards. However this way DAX IO can race with page fault to
the same area:
ext4_ext_direct_IO() dax_fault()
dax_io()
get_block() - allocates unwritten extent
copy_from_iter_pmem()
get_block() - converts
unwritten block to
written and zeroes it
out
ext4_convert_unwritten_extents()
So data written with DAX IO gets lost. Similarly dax_new_buf() called
from dax_io() can overwrite data that has been already written to the
block via mmap.
Fix the problem by using pre-zeroed blocks for DAX IO the same way as we
use them for DAX mmap. The downside of this solution is that every
allocating write writes each block twice (once zeros, once data). Fixing
the race with locking is possible as well however we would need to
lock-out faults for the whole range written to by DAX IO. And that is
not easy to do without locking-out faults for the whole file which seems
too aggressive.

retries in case of ENOSPC errors. With DAX things would get even more
contrieved so just refactor the direct IO code and instead of indirect /
extent split do the split to read vs writes.

When there are blocks to free in the running transaction, block
allocator can return ENOSPC although the filesystem has some blocks to
free. We use ext4_should_retry_alloc() to force commit of the current
transaction and return whether anything was committed so that it makes
sense to retry the allocation. However the transaction may get committed
after block allocation fails but before we call
ext4_should_retry_alloc(). So ext4_should_retry_alloc() returns false
because there is nothing to commit and we wrongly return ENOSPC.
Fix the race by unconditionally returning 1 from ext4_should_retry_alloc()
when we tried to commit a transaction. This should not add any
unnecessary retries since we had a transaction running a while ago when
trying to allocate blocks and we want to retry the allocation once that
transaction has committed anyway.

If the orphaned inode list contains inode #5, ext4_iget() returns a
bad inode (since the bootloader inode should never be referenced
directly). Because of the bad inode, we end up processing the inode
repeatedly and this hangs the machine.
This can be reproduced via:
mke2fs -t ext4 /tmp/foo.img 100
debugfs -w -R "ssv last_orphan 5" /tmp/foo.img
mount -o loop /tmp/foo.img /mnt
(But don't do this if you are using an unpatched kernel if you care
about the system staying functional. :-)
This bug was found by the port of American Fuzzy Lop into the kernel
to find file system problems[1]. (Since it *only* happens if inode #5
shows up on the orphan list --- 3, 7, 8, etc. won't do it, it's not
surprising that AFL needed two hours before it found it.)

still exists. For example, by fallocate(), several buffers' status
change into "BH_Unwritten", but these buffers cannot be processed by
ext4_alloc_da_blocks(). So, they still remain in unwritten status after
per-file data journaling is enabled and they cannot be changed into
written status any more and, if they are journaled and eventually
checkpointed, these unwritten buffer will cause a kernel panic by the
below BUG_ON() function of submit_bh_wbc() when they are submitted
during checkpointing.
static int submit_bh_wbc(int rw, struct buffer_head *bh,...
{
...
BUG_ON(buffer_unwritten(bh));
Moreover, when "dioread_nolock" option is enabled, the status of a
buffer is changed into "BH_Unwritten" after write_begin() completes and
the "BH_Unwritten" status will be cleared after I/O is done. Therefore,
if a buffer's status is changed into unwrutten but the buffer's I/O is
not submitted and completed, it can cause the same problem after
enabling per-file data journaling. You can easily generate this bug by
executing the following command.
./kvm-xfstests -C 10000 -m nodelalloc,dioread_nolock generic/269
To resolve these problems and define a boundary between the previous
mode and per-file data journaling mode, we need to flush and wait all
the I/O of buffers of a file before enabling per-file data journaling
of the file.

The function jbd2_journal_extend() takes as its argument the number of
new credits to be added to the handle. We weren't taking into account
the currently unused handle credits; worse, we would try to extend the
handle by N credits when it had N credits available.
In the case where jbd2_journal_extend() fails because the transaction
is too large, when jbd2_journal_restart() gets called, the N credits
owned by the handle gets returned to the transaction, and the
transaction commit is asynchronously requested, and then
start_this_handle() will be able to successfully attach the handle to
the current transaction since the required credits are now available.
This is mostly harmless, but since ext4_ext_truncate_extend_restart()
returns EAGAIN, the truncate machinery will once again try to call
ext4_ext_truncate_extend_restart(), which will do the above sequence
over and over again until the transaction has committed.
This was found while I was debugging a lockup in caused by running
xfstests generic/074 in the data=journal case. I'm still not sure why
we ended up looping forever, which suggests there may still be another
bug hiding in the transaction accounting machinery, but this commit
prevents us from looping in the first place.

Currently we ask jbd2 to write all dirty allocated buffers before
committing a transaction when doing writeback of delay allocated blocks.
However this is unnecessary since we move all pages to writeback state
before dropping a transaction handle and then submit all the necessary
IO. We still need the transaction commit to wait for all the outstanding
writeback before flushing disk caches during transaction commit to avoid
data exposure issues though. Use the new jbd2 capability and ask it to
only wait for outstanding writeback during transaction commit when
writing back data in ext4_writepages().

Currently when filesystem needs to make sure data is on permanent
storage before committing a transaction it adds inode to transaction's
inode list. During transaction commit, jbd2 writes back all dirty
buffers that have allocated underlying blocks and waits for the IO to
finish. However when doing writeback for delayed allocated data, we
allocate blocks and immediately submit the data. Thus asking jbd2 to
write dirty pages just unnecessarily adds more work to jbd2 possibly
writing back other redirtied blocks.
Add support to jbd2 to allow filesystem to ask jbd2 to only wait for
outstanding data writes before committing a transaction and thus avoid
unnecessary writes.

This flag is just duplicating what ext4_should_order_data() tells you
and is used in a single place. Furthermore it doesn't reflect changes to
inode data journalling flag so it may be possibly misleading. Just
remove it.

Huang has reported that in his powerfail testing he is seeing stale
block contents in some of recently allocated blocks although he mounts
ext4 in data=ordered mode. After some investigation I have found out
that indeed when delayed allocation is used, we don't add inode to
transaction's list of inodes needing flushing before commit. Originally
we were doing that but commit f3b59291a6 removed the logic with a
flawed argument that it is not needed.
The problem is that although for delayed allocated blocks we write their
contents immediately after allocating them, there is no guarantee that
the IO scheduler or device doesn't reorder things and thus transaction
allocating blocks and attaching them to inode can reach stable storage
before actual block contents. Actually whenever we attach freshly
allocated blocks to inode using a written extent, we should add inode to
transaction's ordered inode list to make sure we properly wait for block
contents to be written before committing the transaction. So that is
what we do in this patch. This also handles other cases where stale data
exposure was possible - like filling hole via mmap in
data=ordered,nodelalloc mode.
The only exception to the above rule are extending direct IO writes where
blkdev_direct_IO() waits for IO to complete before increasing i_size and
thus stale data exposure is not possible. For now we don't complicate
the code with optimizing this special case since the overhead is pretty
low. In case this is observed to be a performance problem we can always
handle it using a special flag to ext4_map_blocks().

If a directory has a large number of empty blocks, iterating over all
of them can take a long time, leading to scheduler warnings and users
getting irritated when they can't kill a process in the middle of one
of these long-running readdir operations. Fix this by adding checks to
ext4_readdir() and ext4_htree_fill_tree().
This was reverted earlier due to a typo in the original commit where I
experimented with using signal_pending() instead of
fatal_signal_pending(). The test was in the wrong place if we were
going to return signal_pending() since we would end up returning
duplicant entries. See 9f2394c9be for a more detailed explanation.
Added fix as suggested by Linus to check for signal_pending() in
in the filldir() functions.
