f39490bcd1 ext4: fix error handling in migrate
Set i_nlink to zero for temporary inode from very beginning.
otherwise we may fail to start new journal handle and this
inode will be unreferenced but with i_nlink == 1
Since we hold inode reference it can not be pruned.

Also add missed journal_start retval check.

cc483f102c ext4: Fix fencepost error in chosing choosing group vs file preallocation.
The ext4 multiblock allocator decides whether to use group or file
preallocation based on the file size.  When the file size reaches
s_mb_stream_request (default is 16 blocks), it changes to use a
file-specific preallocation. This is cool, but it has a tiny problem.

See a simple script:
mkfs.ext4 -b 1024 /dev/sda8 1000000
mount -t ext4 -o nodelalloc /dev/sda8 /mnt/ext4
for((i=0;i<5;i++))
do
cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/a	#4096 is a file with 4096 characters.
cat /mnt/4096>>/mnt/ext4/b
done
debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1

And you get
BLOCKS:
(0-14):8705-8719, (15):2356, (16-19):8465-8468

So there are 3 extents, a bit strange for the lonely 15th logical
block.  As we write to the 16 blocks, we choose file preallocation in
ext4_mb_group_or_file, but in ext4_mb_normalize_request, we meet with
the 16*1024 range, so no preallocation will be carried. file b then
reserves the space after '2356', so when when write 16, we start from
another part.

This patch just change the check in ext4_mb_group_or_file, so
that for the lonely 15 we will still use group preallocation.
After the patch, we will get:
debuge4fs -R 'stat a' /dev/sda8|grep BLOCKS -A 1
BLOCKS:
(0-15):8705-8720, (16-19):8465-8468

Looks more sane. Thanks.

The patch is aimed to reorganize and simplify quota code a bit.

- Move quota option parsing to separate functions.
- Simplify old-quota and journaled-quota mix check.

c8d46e41bc ext4: Add flag to files with blocks intentionally past EOF
fallocate() may potentially instantiate blocks past EOF, depending
on the flags used when it is called.

e2fsck currently has a test for blocks past i_size, and it
sometimes trips up - noticeably on xfstests 013 which runs fsstress.

This patch from Jiayang does fix it up - it (along with
e2fsprogs updates and other patches recently from Aneesh) has
survived many fsstress runs in a row.

73b50c1c92 ext4: Fix BUG_ON at fs/buffer.c:652 in no journal mode
Calls to ext4_handle_dirty_metadata should only pass in an inode
pointer for inode-specific metadata, and not for shared metadata
blocks such as inode table blocks, block group descriptors, the
superblock, etc.

The BUG_ON can get tripped when updating a special device (such as a
block device) that is opened (so that i_mapping is set in
fs/block_dev.c) and the file system is mounted in no journal mode.

aca92ff6f5 ext4: correctly calculate number of blocks for fiemap
ext4_fiemap() rounds the length of the requested range down to
blocksize, which is is not the true number of blocks that cover the
requested region.  This problem is especially impressive if the user
requests only the first byte of a file: not a single extent will be
reported.

We fix this by calculating the last block of the region and then
subtract to find the number of blocks in the extents.

12062dddda ext4: move __func__ into a macro for ext4_warning, ext4_error
Just a pet peeve of mine; we had a mishash of calls with either __func__
or "function_name" and the latter tends to get out of sync.

I think it's easier to just hide the __func__ in a macro, and it'll
be consistent from then on.

1f2acb6017 ext4: Add block validity check when truncating indirect block mapped inodes
Add checks to ext4_free_branches() to make sure a block number found
in an indirect block are valid before trying to free it.  If a bad
block number is found, stop freeing the indirect block immediately,
since the file system is corrupt and we will need to run fsck anyway.
This also avoids spamming the logs, and specifically avoids
driver-level "attempt to access beyond end of device" errors obscure
what is really going on.

If you get *really*, *really*, *really* unlucky, without this patch, a
supposed indirect block containing garbage might contain a reference
to a primary block group descriptor, in which case
ext4_free_branches() could end up zero'ing out a block group
descriptor block, and if then one of the block bitmaps for a block
group described by that bg descriptor block is not in memory, and is
read in by ext4_read_block_bitmap().  This function calls
ext4_valid_block_bitmap(), which assumes that bg_inode_table() was
validated at mount time and hasn't been modified since.  Since this
assumption is no longer valid, it's possible for the value
(ext4_inode_table(sb, desc) - group_first_block) to go negative, which
will cause ext4_find_next_zero_bit() to trigger a kernel GPF.

15121c18a2 ext4: Fix optional-arg mount options
We have 2 mount options, "barrier" and "auto_da_alloc" which may or
may not take a 1/0 argument.  This causes the ext4 superblock mount
code to subtract uninitialized pointers and pass the result to
kmalloc, which results in very noisy failures.

Per Ted's suggestion, initialize the args struct so that
we know whether match_token() found an argument for the
option, and skip match_int() if not.

Also, return error (0) from parse_options if we thought
we found an argument, but match_int() Fails.

a1de02dccf ext4: fix async i/o writes beyond 4GB to a sparse file
The "offset" member in ext4_io_end holds bytes, not blocks, so
ext4_lblk_t is wrong - and too small (u32).

This caused the async i/o writes to sparse files beyond 4GB to fail

Also fix up the type of arguments to ext4_convert_unwritten_extents(),
it gets ssize_t from ext4_end_aio_dio_nolock() and
ext4_ext_direct_IO().

metadata (indirect) and data blocks are required but there is an
obstacle in the filesystem (e.g. a resource group header or another

enough blocks for the metadata are returned.

By changing the exit condition of this loop, we ensure that a
minimum of one data block will always be returned.

803bf5ec25 fs/exec.c: restrict initial stack space expansion to rlimit
When reserving stack space for a new process, make sure we're not
attempting to expand the stack by more than rlimit allows.

This fixes a bug caused by b6a2fea393 ("mm:
variable length argument support") and unmasked by
fc63cf2370 ("exec: setup_arg_pages() fails
to return errors").

This bug means that when limiting the stack to less the 20*PAGE_SIZE (eg.
80K on 4K pages or 'ulimit -s 79') all processes will be killed before
they start.  This is particularly bad with 64K pages, where a ulimit below
1280K will kill every process.

To test, do:

  'ulimit -s 15; ls'

before and after the patch is applied.  Before it's applied, 'ls' should
be killed.  After the patch is applied, 'ls' should no longer be killed.

A stack limit of 15KB since it's small enough to trigger 20*PAGE_SIZE.
Also 15KB not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, which is a trickier case to handle
correctly with this code.

4K pages should be fine to test with.

f8c63345b4 edac: mpc85xx fix build regression by removing unused debug code
Some unused, unsupported debug code existed in the mpc85xx EDAC driver
that resulted in a build failure when CONFIG_EDAC_DEBUG was defined:

  drivers/edac/mpc85xx_edac.c: In function 'mpc85xx_mc_err_probe':
  drivers/edac/mpc85xx_edac.c:1031: error: implicit declaration of function 'edac_mc_register_mcidev_debug'
  drivers/edac/mpc85xx_edac.c:1031: error: 'debug_attr' undeclared (first use in this function)
  drivers/edac/mpc85xx_edac.c:1031: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
  drivers/edac/mpc85xx_edac.c:1031: error: for each function it appears in.)

cff9279e4e edac: mpc85xx fix bad page calculation
Commit b484625172 ("edac: mpc85xx add
mpc83xx support") accidentally broke how a chip select's first and last
page addresses are calculated.  The page addresses are being shifted too
far right by PAGE_SHIFT.  This results in errors such as:

  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: Err addr: 0x003075c0
  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: PFN: 0x00000307
  EDAC MPC85xx MC1: PFN out of range!
  EDAC MC1: INTERNAL ERROR: row out of range (4 >= 4)
  EDAC MC1: CE - no information available: INTERNAL ERROR

The vaule of PAGE_SHIFT is already being taken into consideration during
the calculation of the 'start' and 'end' variables, thus it is not
necessary to account for it again when setting a chip select's first and
last page address.
