[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 105/330] ext4: make dioread_nolock the default

[Sasha Levin]

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

[ Upstream commit 244adf6426ee31a83f397b700d964cff12a247d3 ]

This fixes the direct I/O versus writeback race which can reveal stale
data, and it improves the tail latency of commits on slow devices.

I see that the subjected patch is being taken into many different stable
trees. I remember there was a fixes patch on top of this[1].
Below thread[1] has more details. Just wanted to point this one out.
Please ignore if already taken.

[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 155/330] ext4: fix a data race at inode->i_disksize

[Sasha Levin]

From: Qiujun Huang <hqjagain@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit dce8e237100f60c28cc66effb526ba65a01d8cb3 ]

KCSAN find inode->i_disksize could be accessed concurrently.

BUG: KCSAN: data-race in ext4_mark_iloc_dirty / ext4_write_end

write (marked) to 0xffff8b8932f40090 of 8 bytes by task 66792 on cpu 0:

read to 0xffff8b8932f40090 of 8 bytes by task 14414 on cpu 1:

 worker_thread+0x88/0x650
 kthread+0x1d4/0x1f0
 ret_from_fork+0x35/0x40

The plain read is outside of inode->i_data_sem critical section
which results in a data race. Fix it by adding READ_ONCE().

[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.4 173/330] ext4: mark block bitmap corrupted when found instead of BUGON

[Sasha Levin]

From: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit eb5760863fc28feab28b567ddcda7e667e638da0 ]

We already has similar code in ext4_mb_complex_scan_group(), but
ext4_mb_simple_scan_group() still affected.
