xfs: ensure verifiers are attached to recovered buffers
Crash testing of CRC enabled filesystems has resulted in a number of reports of bad CRCs being detected after the filesystem was mounted. Errors such as the following were being seen: XFS (sdb3): Mounting V5 Filesystem XFS (sdb3): Starting recovery (logdev: internal) XFS (sdb3): Metadata CRC error detected at xfs_agf_read_verify+0x5a/0x100 [xfs], block 0x1 XFS (sdb3): Unmount and run xfs_repair XFS (sdb3): First 64 bytes of corrupted metadata buffer: ffff880136ffd600: 58 41 47 46 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 0f aa 40 XAGF...........@ ffff880136ffd610: 00 02 6d 53 00 02 77 f8 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01 ..mS..w......... ffff880136ffd620: 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 ................ ffff880136ffd630: 00 00 00 04 00 08 81 d0 00 08 81 a7 00 00 00 00 ................ XFS (sdb3): metadata I/O error: block 0x1 ("xfs_trans_read_buf_map") error 74 numblks 1 The errors were typically being seen in AGF, AGI and their related btree block buffers some time after log recovery had run. Often it wasn't until later subsequent mounts that the problem was discovered. The common symptom was a buffer with the correct contents, but a CRC and an LSN that matched an older version of the contents. Some debug added to _xfs_buf_ioapply() indicated that buffers were being written without verifiers attached to them from log recovery, and Jan Kara isolated the cause to log recovery readahead an dit's interactions with buffers that had a more recent LSN on disk than the transaction being recovered. In this case, the buffer did not get a verifier attached, and os when the second phase of log recovery ran and recovered EFIs and unlinked inodes, the buffers were modified and written without the verifier running. Hence they had up to date contents, but stale LSNs and CRCs. Fix it by attaching verifiers to buffers we skip due to future LSN values so they don't escape into the buffer cache without the correct verifier attached. This patch is based on analysis and a patch from Jan Kara. cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Reported-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Reported-by: Fanael Linithien <fanael4@gmail.com> Reported-by: Grozdan <neutrino8@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <dchinner@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Foster <bfoster@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Chinner <david@fromorbit.com>
