<id>urn:sha1:d24cf6d0d72a871f7fc6d96970bd4745ec59ac77</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 68f23b89067fdf187763e75a56087550624fdbee ]

Without memcg, there is a one-to-one mapping between the bdi and
bdi_writeback structures.  In this world, things are fairly
straightforward; the first thing bdi_unregister() does is to shutdown
the bdi_writeback structure (or wb), and part of that writeback ensures
that no other work queued against the wb, and that the wb is fully
drained.

With memcg, however, there is a one-to-many relationship between the bdi
and bdi_writeback structures; that is, there are multiple wb objects
which can all point to a single bdi.  There is a refcount which prevents
the bdi object from being released (and hence, unregistered).  So in
theory, the bdi_unregister() *should* only get called once its refcount
goes to zero (bdi_put will drop the refcount, and when it is zero,
release_bdi gets called, which calls bdi_unregister).

Unfortunately, del_gendisk() in block/gen_hd.c never got the memo about
the Brave New memcg World, and calls bdi_unregister directly.  It does
this without informing the file system, or the memcg code, or anything
else.  This causes the root wb associated with the bdi to be
unregistered, but none of the memcg-specific wb's are shutdown.  So when
one of these wb's are woken up to do delayed work, they try to
dereference their wb-&gt;bdi-&gt;dev to fetch the device name, but
unfortunately bdi-&gt;dev is now NULL, thanks to the bdi_unregister()
called by del_gendisk().  As a result, *boom*.

Fortunately, it looks like the rest of the writeback path is perfectly
happy with bdi-&gt;dev and bdi-&gt;owner being NULL, so the simplest fix is to
create a bdi_dev_name() function which can handle bdi-&gt;dev being NULL.
This also allows us to bulletproof the writeback tracepoints to prevent
them from dereferencing a NULL pointer and crashing the kernel if one is
tracing with memcg's enabled, and an iSCSI device dies or a USB storage
stick is pulled.

The most common way of triggering this will be hotremoval of a device
while writeback with memcg enabled is going on.  It was triggering
several times a day in a heavily loaded production environment.

Fix it by using the new strscpy_pad() which was introduced in "lib/string:

commit 5fcd57505c002efc5823a7355e21f48dd02d5a51 upstream.

The only use of I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE is to detect in
__writeback_single_inode() that inode got there because flush worker
decided it's time to writeback the dirty inode time stamps (either
because we are syncing or because of age). However we can detect this
directly in __writeback_single_inode() and there's no need for the
strange propagation with I_DIRTY_TIME_EXPIRE flag.

[ Upstream commit 7010645ba7256992818b518163f46bd4cdf8002a ]

trace-cmd report doesn't show events from target subsystem because
scsi_command_size() leaks through event format string:

  [target:target_sequencer_start] function scsi_command_size not defined
  [target:target_cmd_complete] function scsi_command_size not defined

Addition of scsi_command_size() to plugin_scsi.c in trace-cmd doesn't
help because an expression is used inside TP_printk(). trace-cmd event
parser doesn't understand minus sign inside [ ]:

  Error: expected ']' but read '-'

Rather than duplicating kernel code in plugin_scsi.c, provide a dedicated
field for CONTROL byte.

commit f9cae926f35e8230330f28c7b743ad088611a8de upstream.

When we are processing writeback for sync(2), move_expired_inodes()
didn't set any inode expiry value (older_than_this). This can result in
writeback never completing if there's steady stream of inodes added to
b_dirty_time list as writeback rechecks dirty lists after each writeback
round whether there's more work to be done. Fix the problem by using
sync(2) start time is inode expiry value when processing b_dirty_time
list similarly as for ordinarily dirtied inodes. This requires some
refactoring of older_than_this handling which simplifies the code
noticeably as a bonus.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit e41ca5897489b1c18af75ff0cc8f5c80260b3281 ]

We used to call btrfs_file_extent_inline_len() to get the uncompressed
data size of an inlined extent.

However this function is hiding evil, for compressed extent, it has no
choice but to directly read out ram_bytes from btrfs_file_extent_item.
While for uncompressed extent, it uses item size to calculate the real
data size, and ignoring ram_bytes completely.

In fact, for corrupted ram_bytes, due to above behavior kernel
btrfs_print_leaf() can't even print correct ram_bytes to expose the bug.

Since we have the tree-checker to verify all EXTENT_DATA, such mismatch
can be detected pretty easily, thus we can trust ram_bytes without the
evil btrfs_file_extent_inline_len().
