Subject: [PATCH v3] xfs: validate extsz hints against rt extent size when rtinherit is set
Date: Mon, 24 May 2021 23:15:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210525061531.GF202121@locust> (raw)

From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@kernel.org>

The RTINHERIT bit can be set on a directory so that newly created
regular files will have the REALTIME bit set to store their data on the
realtime volume.  If an extent size hint (and EXTSZINHERIT) are set on
the directory, the hint will also be copied into the new file.

As pointed out in previous patches, for realtime files we require the
extent size hint be an integer multiple of the realtime extent, but we
don't perform the same validation on a directory with both RTINHERIT and
EXTSZINHERIT set, even though the only use-case of that combination is
to propagate extent size hints into new realtime files.  This leads to
inode corruption errors when the bad values are propagated.

Because there may be existing filesystems with such a configuration, we
cannot simply amend the inode verifier to trip on these directories and
call it a day because that will cause previously "working" filesystems
to start throwing errors abruptly.  Note that it's valid to have
directories with rtinherit set even if there is no realtime volume, in
which case the problem does not manifest because rtinherit is ignored if
there's no realtime device; and it's possible that someone set the flag,
crashed, repaired the filesystem (which clears the hint on the realtime
file) and continued.

Therefore, mitigate this issue in several ways: First, if we try to
write out an inode with both rtinherit/extszinherit set and an unaligned
extent size hint, turn off the hint to correct the error.  Second, if
someone tries to misconfigure a directory via the fssetxattr ioctl, fail
the ioctl.  Third, reverify both extent size hint values when we
propagate heritable inode attributes from parent to child, to prevent
misconfigurations from spreading.

v2: disable incorrect hints at runtime instead of whacking filesystems
    with verifier errors
v3: revise the comment in the verifier to describe the source of the
    problem, the observable symptoms, and how the solution fits the
    historical context

+	 * This comment describes a historic gap in this verifier function.
+	 *
+	 * On older kernels, the extent size hint verifier doesn't check that
+	 * the extent size hint is an integer multiple of the realtime extent
+	 * size on a directory with both RTINHERIT and EXTSZINHERIT flags set.
+	 * The verifier has always enforced the alignment rule for regular
+	 * files with the REALTIME flag set.
+	 *
+	 * If a directory with a misaligned extent size hint is allowed to
+	 * propagate that hint into a new regular realtime file, the result
+	 * is that the inode cluster buffer verifier will trigger a corruption
+	 * shutdown the next time it is run.
+	 *
+	 * Unfortunately, there could be filesystems with these misconfigured
+	 * directories in the wild, so we cannot add a check to this verifier
+	 * at this time because that will result a new source of directory
+	 * corruption errors when reading an existing filesystem.  Instead, we
+	 * permit the misconfiguration to pass through the verifiers so that
+	 * callers of this function can correct and mitigate externally.
