2017-08-06ext4: fix overflow caused by missing cast in ext4_resize_fs()Jerry Lee1-1/+2
On a 32-bit platform, the value of n_blcoks_count may be wrong during the file system is resized to size larger than 2^32 blocks. This may caused the superblock being corrupted with zero blocks count.

2015-10-18[PATCH] fix calculation of meta_bg descriptor backupsAndy Leiserson1-2/+2
"group" is the group where the backup will be placed, and is initialized to zero in the declaration. This meant that backups for meta_bg descriptors were erroneously written to the backup block group descriptors in groups 1 and (desc_per_block-1).

2015-05-02ext4: fix growing of tiny filesystemsJan Kara1-2/+5
The estimate of necessary transaction credits in ext4_flex_group_add() is too pessimistic. It reserves credit for sb, resize inode, and resize inode dindirect block for each group added in a flex group although they are always the same block and thus it is enough to account them only once. Also the number of modified GDT block is overestimated since we fit EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb) descriptors in one block. Make the estimation more precise. That reduces number of requested credits enough that we can grow 20 MB filesystem (which has 1 MB journal, 79 reserved GDT blocks, and flex group size 16 by default).

2014-02-15ext4: fix online resize with very large inode tablesTheodore Ts'o1-12/+20
If a file system has a large number of inodes per block group, all of the metadata blocks in a flex_bg may be larger than what can fit in a single block group. Unfortunately, ext4_alloc_group_tables() in resize.c was never tested to see if it would handle this case correctly, and there were a large number of bugs which caused the following sequence to result in a BUG_ON: kernel bug at fs/ext4/resize.c:409! ... call trace: [<ffffffff81256768>] ext4_flex_group_add+0x1448/0x1830 [<ffffffff81257de2>] ext4_resize_fs+0x7b2/0xe80 [<ffffffff8123ac50>] ext4_ioctl+0xbf0/0xf00 [<ffffffff811c111d>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x2dd/0x4b0 [<ffffffff811b9df2>] ? final_putname+0x22/0x50 [<ffffffff811c1371>] sys_ioctl+0x81/0xa0 [<ffffffff81676aa9>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b code: c8 4c 89 df e8 41 96 f8 ff 44 89 e8 49 01 c4 44 29 6d d4 0 rip [<ffffffff81254fa1>] set_flexbg_block_bitmap+0x171/0x180 This can be reproduced with the following command sequence: mke2fs -t ext4 -i 4096 /dev/vdd 1G mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /vdd resize2fs /dev/vdd 8G To fix this, we need to make sure the right thing happens when a block group's inode table straddles two block groups, which means the following bugs had to be fixed: 1) Not clearing the BLOCK_UNINIT flag in the second block group in ext4_alloc_group_tables --- the was proximate cause of the BUG_ON. 2) Incorrectly determining how many block groups contained contiguous free blocks in ext4_alloc_group_tables(). 3) Incorrectly setting the start of the next block range to be marked in use after a discontinuity in setup_new_flex_group_blocks().

So we can better understand what bits of ext4 are responsible for long-running jbd2 handles, use jbd2__journal_start() so we can pass context information for logging purposes. The recommended way for finding the longer-running handles is: T=/sys/kernel/debug/tracing EVENT=$T/events/jbd2/jbd2_handle_stats echo "interval > 5" > $EVENT/filter echo 1 > $EVENT/enable ./run-my-fs-benchmark cat $T/trace > /tmp/problem-handles This will list handles that were active for longer than 20ms. Having longer-running handles is bad, because a commit started at the wrong time could stall for those 20+ milliseconds, which could delay an fsync() or an O_SYNC operation.

2012-07-09ext4: fix overhead calculation used by ext4_statfs()Theodore Ts'o1-1/+6
Commit f975d6bcc7a introduced bug which caused ext4_statfs() to miscalculate the number of file system overhead blocks. This causes the f_blocks field in the statfs structure to be larger than it should be. This would in turn cause the "df" output to show the number of data blocks in the file system and the number of data blocks used to be larger than they should be.
