commit 7c11c56eb3 upstream.
Kernel commit 0a6ce20c15 ("ext4: verify orphan file size is not too big")
limits the maximum supported orphan file size to 8 << 20.
However, in e2fsprogs, the orphan file size is set to 32–512 filesystem
blocks when creating a filesystem.
With 64k block size, formatting an ext4 fs >32G gives an orphan file bigger
than the kernel allows, so mount prints an error and fails:
EXT4-fs (vdb): orphan file too big: 8650752
EXT4-fs (vdb): mount failed
To prevent this issue and allow previously created 64KB filesystems to
mount, we updates the maximum allowed orphan file size in the kernel to
512 filesystem blocks.

commit 3f7a79d05c upstream.
When the MB_CHECK_ASSERT macro is enabled, an assertion failure can
occur in __mb_check_buddy when checking preallocated blocks (pa) in
a block group:
Assertion failure in mb_free_blocks() : "groupnr == e4b->bd_group"
This happens when a pa at the very end of a block group (e.g.,
pa_pstart=32765, pa_len=3 in a group of 32768 blocks) becomes
exhausted - its pa_pstart is advanced by pa_len to 32768, which
lies in the next block group. If this exhausted pa (with pa_len == 0)
is still in the bb_prealloc_list during the buddy check, the assertion
incorrectly flags it as belonging to the wrong group. A possible
sequence is as follows:
ext4_mb_new_blocks
ext4_mb_release_context
pa->pa_pstart += EXT4_C2B(sbi, ac->ac_b_ex.fe_len)
pa->pa_len -= ac->ac_b_ex.fe_len
__mb_check_buddy
for each pa in group
ext4_get_group_no_and_offset
MB_CHECK_ASSERT(groupnr == e4b->bd_group)
To fix this, we modify the check to skip block group validation for
exhausted preallocations (where pa_len == 0). Such entries are in a
transitional state and will be removed from the list soon, so they
should not trigger an assertion. This change prevents the false
positive while maintaining the integrity of the checks for active
allocations.

[ Upstream commit d9ee3ff810 ]
When the MB_CHECK_ASSERT macro is enabled, we found that the
current validation logic in __mb_check_buddy has a gap in
detecting certain invalid buddy states, particularly related
to order-0 (bitmap) bits.
The original logic consists of three steps:
1. Validates higher-order buddies: if a higher-order bit is
set, at most one of the two corresponding lower-order bits
may be free; if a higher-order bit is clear, both lower-order
bits must be allocated (and their bitmap bits must be 0).
2. For any set bit in order-0, ensures all corresponding
higher-order bits are not free.
3. Verifies that all preallocated blocks (pa) in the group
have pa_pstart within bounds and their bitmap bits marked as
allocated.
However, this approach fails to properly validate cases where
order-0 bits are incorrectly cleared (0), allowing some invalid
configurations to pass:
corrupt integral
order 3 1 1
order 2 1 1 1 1
order 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
order 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
Here we get two adjacent free blocks at order-0 with inconsistent
higher-order state, and the right one shows the correct scenario.
The root cause is insufficient validation of order-0 zero bits.
To fix this and improve completeness without significant performance
cost, we refine the logic:
1. Maintain the top-down higher-order validation, but we no longer
check the cases where the higher-order bit is 0, as this case will
be covered in step 2.
2. Enhance order-0 checking by examining pairs of bits:
- If either bit in a pair is set (1), all corresponding
higher-order bits must not be free.
- If both bits are clear (0), then exactly one of the
corresponding higher-order bits must be free
3. Keep the preallocation (pa) validation unchanged.
This change closes the validation gap, ensuring illegal buddy states
involving order-0 are correctly detected, while removing redundant
checks and maintaining efficiency.

commit 892e1cf175 upstream.
The cached ei->i_inline_size can become stale between the initial size
check and when ext4_update_inline_data()/ext4_create_inline_data() use
it. Although ext4_get_max_inline_size() reads the correct value at the
time of the check, concurrent xattr operations can modify i_inline_size
before ext4_write_lock_xattr() is acquired.
This causes ext4_update_inline_data() and ext4_create_inline_data() to
work with stale capacity values, leading to a BUG_ON() crash in
ext4_write_inline_data():
kernel BUG at fs/ext4/inline.c:1331!
BUG_ON(pos + len > EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_size);
The race window:
1. ext4_get_max_inline_size() reads i_inline_size = 60 (correct)
2. Size check passes for 50-byte write
3. [Another thread adds xattr, i_inline_size changes to 40]
4. ext4_write_lock_xattr() acquires lock
5. ext4_update_inline_data() uses stale i_inline_size = 60
6. Attempts to write 50 bytes but only 40 bytes actually available
7. BUG_ON() triggers
Fix this by recalculating i_inline_size via ext4_find_inline_data_nolock()
immediately after acquiring xattr_sem. This ensures ext4_update_inline_data()
and ext4_create_inline_data() work with current values that are protected
from concurrent modifications.
This is similar to commit a54c4613da ("ext4: fix race writing to an
inline_data file while its xattrs are changing") which fixed i_inline_off
staleness. This patch addresses the related i_inline_size staleness issue.

[ Upstream commit 46e75c56df ]
The following code paths may result in high latency or even task hangs:
1. fastcommit io is throttled by wbt.
2. jbd2_fc_wait_bufs() might wait for a long time while
JBD2_FAST_COMMIT_ONGOING is set in journal->flags, and then
jbd2_journal_commit_transaction() waits for the
JBD2_FAST_COMMIT_ONGOING bit for a long time while holding the write
lock of j_state_lock.
3. start_this_handle() waits for read lock of j_state_lock which
results in high latency or task hang.
Given the fact that ext4_fc_commit() already modifies the current
process' IO priority to match that of the jbd2 thread, it should be
reasonable to match jbd2's IO submission flags as well.

commit 1d3ad18394 upstream.
syzbot reported a BUG_ON in ext4_es_cache_extent() when opening a verity
file on a corrupted ext4 filesystem mounted without a journal.
The issue is that the filesystem has an inode with both the INLINE_DATA
and EXTENTS flags set:
EXT4-fs error (device loop0): ext4_cache_extents:545: inode #15:
comm syz.0.17: corrupted extent tree: lblk 0 < prev 66
Investigation revealed that the inode has both flags set:
DEBUG: inode 15 - flag=1, i_inline_off=164, has_inline=1, extents_flag=1
This is an invalid combination since an inode should have either:
- INLINE_DATA: data stored directly in the inode
- EXTENTS: data stored in extent-mapped blocks
Having both flags causes ext4_has_inline_data() to return true, skipping
extent tree validation in __ext4_iget(). The unvalidated out-of-order
extents then trigger a BUG_ON in ext4_es_cache_extent() due to integer
underflow when calculating hole sizes.
Fix this by detecting this invalid flag combination early in ext4_iget()
and rejecting the corrupted inode.

commit 328a782cb1 upstream.
When freeing metadata blocks in nojournal mode, ext4_forget() calls
bforget() to clear the dirty flag on the buffer_head and remvoe
associated mappings. This is acceptable if the metadata has not yet
begun to be written back. However, if the write-back has already started
but is not yet completed, ext4_forget() will have no effect.
Subsequently, ext4_mb_clear_bb() will immediately return the block to
the mb allocator. This block can then be reallocated immediately,
potentially causing an data corruption issue.
Fix this by clearing the buffer's dirty flag and waiting for the ongoing
I/O to complete, ensuring that no further writes to stale data will
occur.

commit 57295e8354 upstream.
syzkaller found a path where ext4_xattr_inode_update_ref() reads an EA
inode refcount that is already <= 0 and then applies ref_change (often
-1). That lets the refcount underflow and we proceed with a bogus value,
triggering errors like:
EXT4-fs error: EA inode <n> ref underflow: ref_count=-1 ref_change=-1
EXT4-fs warning: ea_inode dec ref err=-117
Make the invariant explicit: if the current refcount is non-positive,
treat this as on-disk corruption, emit ext4_error_inode(), and fail the
operation with -EFSCORRUPTED instead of updating the refcount. Delete the
WARN_ONCE() as negative refcounts are now impossible; keep error reporting
in ext4_error_inode().
This prevents the underflow and the follow-on orphan/cleanup churn.

commit 46c22a8bb4 upstream.
Currently, our handling of metadata is _ambiguous_ in some scenarios,
that is, we end up returning unknown if the range only covers the
mapping partially.
For example, in the following case:
$ xfs_io -c fsmap -d
0: 254:16 [0..7]: static fs metadata 8
1: 254:16 [8..15]: special 102:1 8
2: 254:16 [16..5127]: special 102:2 5112
3: 254:16 [5128..5255]: special 102:3 128
4: 254:16 [5256..5383]: special 102:4 128
5: 254:16 [5384..70919]: inodes 65536
6: 254:16 [70920..70967]: unknown 48
...
$ xfs_io -c fsmap -d 24 33
0: 254:16 [24..39]: unknown 16 <--- incomplete reporting
$ xfs_io -c fsmap -d 24 33 (With patch)
0: 254:16 [16..5127]: special 102:2 5112
This is because earlier in ext4_getfsmap_meta_helper, we end up ignoring
any extent that starts before our queried range, but overlaps it. While
the man page [1] is a bit ambiguous on this, this fix makes the output
make more sense since we are anyways returning an "unknown" extent. This
is also consistent to how XFS does it:
$ xfs_io -c fsmap -d
...
6: 254:16 [104..127]: free space 24
7: 254:16 [128..191]: inodes 64
...
$ xfs_io -c fsmap -d 137 150
0: 254:16 [128..191]: inodes 64 <-- full extent returned

image. During the second pass, fsck -fn reported:
Inode 131512, end of extent exceeds allowed value
(logical block 405, physical block 1180540, len 2)
This inode was not in the orphan list. Analysis revealed the
following call chain that leads to the inconsistency:
ext4_da_write_end()
//does not update i_disksize
ext4_punch_hole()
//truncate folio, keep size
ext4_page_mkwrite()
ext4_block_page_mkwrite()
ext4_block_write_begin()
ext4_get_block()
//insert written extent without update i_disksize
journal commit
echo 1 > /sys/block/xxx/device/delete
da-write path updates i_size but does not update i_disksize. Then
ext4_punch_hole truncates the da-folio yet still leaves i_disksize
unchanged(in the ext4_update_disksize_before_punch function, the
condition offset + len < size is met). Then ext4_page_mkwrite sees
ext4_nonda_switch return 1 and takes the nodioread_nolock path, the
folio about to be written has just been punched out, and it’s offset
sits beyond the current i_disksize. This may result in a written
extent being inserted, but again does not update i_disksize. If the
journal gets committed and then the block device is yanked, we might
run into this. It should be noted that replacing ext4_punch_hole with
ext4_zero_range in the call sequence may also trigger this issue, as
neither will update i_disksize under these circumstances.
To fix this, we can modify ext4_update_disksize_before_punch to
increase i_disksize to min(i_size, offset + len) when both i_size and
(offset + len) are greater than i_disksize.

When orphan file feature is enabled, inode can be tracked as orphan
either in the standard orphan list or in the orphan file. The first can
be tested by checking ei->i_orphan list head, the second is recorded by
EXT4_STATE_ORPHAN_FILE inode state flag. There are several places where
we want to check whether inode is tracked as orphan and only some of
them properly check for both possibilities. Luckily the consequences are
mostly minor, the worst that can happen is that we track an inode as
orphan although we don't need to and e2fsck then complains (resulting in
occasional ext4/307 xfstest failures). Fix the problem by introducing a
helper for checking whether an inode is tracked as orphan and use it in

To rectify this, `SB_I_VERSION` is always set for `fc->sb_flags` in

ensuring it persists across all mounts.

commit c5e104a91e upstream.
When the file system is frozen in preparation for taking an LVM
snapshot, the journal is checkpointed and if the orphan_file feature
is enabled, and the orphan file is empty, we clear the orphan_present
feature flag. But if there are pending inodes that need to be removed
the orphan_present feature flag can't be cleared.
The problem comes if the block device is read-only. In that case, we
can't process the orphan inode list, so it is skipped in
ext4_orphan_cleanup(). But then in ext4_mark_recovery_complete(),
this results in the ext4 error "Orphan file not empty on read-only fs"
firing and the file system mount is aborted.
Fix this by clearing the needs_recovery flag in the block device is
read-only. We do this after the call to ext4_load_and_init-journal()
since there are some error checks need to be done in case the journal
needs to be replayed and the block device is read-only, or if the
block device containing the externa journal is read-only, etc.

commit bae76c035b upstream.
With bigalloc enabled, the logic to report last extent has a bug since
we try to use cluster units instead of block units. This can cause an
issue where extra incorrect entries might be returned back to the
user. This was flagged by generic/365 with 64k bs and -O bigalloc.
** Details of issue **
The issue was noticed on 5G 64k blocksize FS with -O bigalloc which has
only 1 bg.
$ xfs_io -c "fsmap -d" /mnt/scratch

9: 253:48 [538624..10485759]: free space 9947136
The issue can be seen with:
$ xfs_io -c "fsmap -d 0 3" /mnt/scratch
0: 253:48 [0..127]: static fs metadata 128
1: 253:48 [384..2047]: unknown 1664
Only the first entry was expected to be returned but we get 2. This is
because:
ext4_getfsmap_datadev()
first_cluster, last_cluster = 0
...
info->gfi_last = true;
ext4_getfsmap_datadev_helper(sb, end_ag, last_cluster + 1, 0, info);
fsb = C2B(1) = 16
fslen = 0
...
/* Merge in any relevant extents from the meta_list */
list_for_each_entry_safe(p, tmp, &info->gfi_meta_list, fmr_list) {
...
// since fsb = 16, considers all metadata which starts before 16 blockno
iter 1: error = ext4_getfsmap_helper(sb, info, p); // p = sb (0,1), nop
info->gfi_next_fsblk = 1
iter 2: error = ext4_getfsmap_helper(sb, info, p); // p = gdt (1,2), nop
info->gfi_next_fsblk = 2
iter 3: error = ext4_getfsmap_helper(sb, info, p); // p = blk bitmap (2,3), nop
info->gfi_next_fsblk = 3
iter 4: error = ext4_getfsmap_helper(sb, info, p); // p = ino bitmap (18,19)
if (rec_blk > info->gfi_next_fsblk) { // (18 > 3)
// emits an extra entry ** BUG **
}
}
Fix this by directly calling ext4_getfsmap_datadev() with a dummy
record that has fmr_physical set to (end_fsb + 1) instead of
last_cluster + 1. By using the block instead of cluster we get the
correct behavior.
Replacing ext4_getfsmap_datadev_helper() with ext4_getfsmap_helper()
is okay since the gfi_lastfree and metadata checks in
ext4_getfsmap_datadev_helper() are anyways redundant when we only want
to emit the last allocated block of the range, as we have already
taken care of emitting metadata and any last free blocks.

The check for a fast symlink in the presence of only an
external xattr inode is incorrect. If a fast symlink does
not have an xattr block (i_file_acl == 0), but does have
an external xattr inode that increases inode i_blocks, then
the check for a fast symlink will incorrectly fail and
__ext4_iget()->ext4_ind_check_inode() will report the inode
is corrupt when it "validates" i_data[] on the next read:

ext4_inode_is_fast_symlink() should check the superblock

commit 7d345aa1fa upstream.
The grp->bb_largest_free_order is updated regardless of whether
mb_optimize_scan is enabled. This can lead to inconsistencies between
grp->bb_largest_free_order and the actual s_mb_largest_free_orders list
index when mb_optimize_scan is repeatedly enabled and disabled via remount.
For example, if mb_optimize_scan is initially enabled, largest free
order is 3, and the group is in s_mb_largest_free_orders[3]. Then,
mb_optimize_scan is disabled via remount, block allocations occur,
updating largest free order to 2. Finally, mb_optimize_scan is re-enabled
via remount, more block allocations update largest free order to 1.
At this point, the group would be removed from s_mb_largest_free_orders[3]
under the protection of s_mb_largest_free_orders_locks[2]. This lock
mismatch can lead to list corruption.
To fix this, whenever grp->bb_largest_free_order changes, we now always
attempt to remove the group from its old order list. However, we only
insert the group into the new order list if `mb_optimize_scan` is enabled.
This approach helps prevent lock inconsistencies and ensures the data in
the order lists remains reliable.

commit 1c320d8e92 upstream.
Groups with no free blocks shouldn't be in any average fragment size list.
However, when all blocks in a group are allocated(i.e., bb_fragments or
bb_free is 0), we currently skip updating the average fragment size, which
means the group isn't removed from its previous s_mb_avg_fragment_size[old]
list.
This created "zombie" groups that were always skipped during traversal as
they couldn't satisfy any block allocation requests, negatively impacting
traversal efficiency.
Therefore, when a group becomes completely full, bb_avg_fragment_size_order
is now set to -1. If the old order was not -1, a removal operation is
performed; if the new order is not -1, an insertion is performed.

This occurs when processing a symlink inode from the orphan list. The
partial block zeroing code in the truncate path calls
ext4_dirty_journalled_data() -> folio_mark_dirty(). The latter calls
mapping->a_ops->dirty_folio(), but symlink inodes are not assigned an
a_ops vector in ext4, hence the crash.
To avoid this problem, update the ext4_dirty_journalled_data() helper to
only mark the folio dirty on regular files (for which a_ops is
assigned). This also matches the journaling logic in the ext4_symlink()
creation path, where ext4_handle_dirty_metadata() is called directly.

commit 32a93f5bc9 upstream.
Luis and David are reporting that after running generic/750 test for 90+
hours on 2k ext4 filesystem, they are able to trigger a warning in
jbd2_journal_dirty_metadata() complaining that there are not enough
credits in the running transaction started in ext4_do_writepages().
Indeed the code in ext4_do_writepages() is racy and the extent tree can
change between the time we compute credits necessary for extent tree
computation and the time we actually modify the extent tree. Thus it may
happen that the number of credits actually needed is higher. Modify
ext4_ext_index_trans_blocks() to count with the worst case of maximum
tree depth. This can reduce the possible number of writers that can
operate in the system in parallel (because the credit estimates now won't
fit in one transaction) but for reasonably sized journals this shouldn't
really be an issue. So just go with a safe and simple fix.

Fix this by introducing ext4_truncate_page_cache_block_range() to remove
writable userspace mappings when truncating a partial folio range.
Additionally, move the journal data mode-specific handlers and
truncate_pagecache_range() into this function, allowing it to serve as a
common helper that correctly manages the page cache in preparation for

[ Upstream commit 43d0105e2c ]
There is no need to write back all data before punching a hole in
non-journaled mode since it will be dropped soon after removing space.
Therefore, the call to filemap_write_and_wait_range() can be eliminated.
Besides, similar to ext4_zero_range(), we must address the case of
partially punched folios when block size < page size. It is essential to
remove writable userspace mappings to ensure that the folio can be
faulted again during subsequent mmap write access.
In journaled mode, we need to write dirty pages out before discarding
page cache in case of crash before committing the freeing data
transaction, which could expose old, stale data, even if synchronization
has been performed.

[ Upstream commit e856f93e0f ]
When dioread_nolock is turned on (the default), it will convert unwritten
extents to written at ext4_end_io_end(), even if the data writeback fails.
It leads to the possibility that stale data may be exposed when the
physical block corresponding to the file data is read-only (i.e., writes
return -EIO, but reads are normal).
Therefore a new ext4_io_end->flags EXT4_IO_END_FAILED is added, which
indicates that some bio write-back failed in the current ext4_io_end.
When this flag is set, the unwritten to written conversion is no longer
performed. Users can read the data normally until the caches are dropped,
after that, the failed extents can only be read to all 0.

capable() calls refer to enabled LSMs whether to permit or deny the
request. This is relevant in connection with SELinux, where a
capability check results in a policy decision and by default a denial
message on insufficient permission is issued.
It can lead to three undesired cases:
1. A denial message is generated, even in case the operation was an
unprivileged one and thus the syscall succeeded, creating noise.
2. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to ignore
those denial messages, hiding future syscalls, where the task
performs an actual privileged operation, leading to hidden limited
functionality of that task.
3. To avoid the noise from 1. the policy writer adds a rule to permit
the task the requested capability, while it does not need it,
violating the principle of least privilege.

Block validity checks need to be skipped in case they are called
for journal blocks since they are part of system's protected
zone.
Currently, this is done by checking inode->ino against
sbi->s_es->s_journal_inum, which is a direct read from the ext4 sb
buffer head. If someone modifies this underneath us then the
s_journal_inum field might get corrupted. To prevent against this,
change the check to directly compare the inode with journal->j_inode.
**Slight change in behavior**: During journal init path,
check_block_validity etc might be called for journal inode when
sbi->s_journal is not set yet. In this case we now proceed with
ext4_inode_block_valid() instead of returning early. Since systems zones
have not been set yet, it is okay to proceed so we can perform basic
checks on the blocks.

[ Upstream commit 642335f3ea ]
A file handle that userspace provides to open_by_handle_at() can
legitimately contain an outdated inode number that has since been reused
for another purpose - that's why the file handle also contains a generation
number.
But if the inode number has been reused for an ea_inode, check_igot_inode()
will notice, __ext4_iget() will go through ext4_error_inode(), and if the
inode was newly created, it will also be marked as bad by iget_failed().
This all happens before the point where the inode generation is checked.
ext4_error_inode() is supposed to only be used on filesystem corruption; it
should not be used when userspace just got unlucky with a stale file

commit d5e206778e upstream.
Mounting a corrupted filesystem with directory which contains '.' dir
entry with rec_len == block size results in out-of-bounds read (later
on, when the corrupted directory is removed).
ext4_empty_dir() assumes every ext4 directory contains at least '.'
and '..' as directory entries in the first data block. It first loads
the '.' dir entry, performs sanity checks by calling ext4_check_dir_entry()
and then uses its rec_len member to compute the location of '..' dir
entry (in ext4_next_entry). It assumes the '..' dir entry fits into the
same data block.
If the rec_len of '.' is precisely one block (4KB), it slips through the
sanity checks (it is considered the last directory entry in the data
block) and leaves "struct ext4_dir_entry_2 *de" point exactly past the
memory slot allocated to the data block. The following call to
ext4_check_dir_entry() on new value of de then dereferences this pointer
which results in out-of-bounds mem access.
Fix this by extending __ext4_check_dir_entry() to check for '.' dir
entries that reach the end of data block. Make sure to ignore the phony
dir entries for checksum (by checking name_len for non-zero).
Note: This is reported by KASAN as use-after-free in case another
structure was recently freed from the slot past the bound, but it is
really an OOB read.
This issue was found by syzkaller tool.
