From 3df32196519d1556b8851b610ca1aa68c5b673d3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dmitry Monakhov Date: Tue, 28 May 2013 13:19:01 +0400 Subject: ext3: Fix fsync error handling after filesystem abort. If filesystem was aborted we will return success due to (sb->s_flags & MS_RDONLY) which is incorrect and results in data loss. In order to handle fs abort correctly we have to check fs state once we discover that it is in MS_RDONLY state Test case: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/244297/ Changes from V1: - fix spelling - fix smp_rmb()/debug order Signed-off-by: Dmitry Monakhov Signed-off-by: Jan Kara --- fs/ext3/super.c | 13 ++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'fs/ext3/super.c') diff --git a/fs/ext3/super.c b/fs/ext3/super.c index 6356665a74bb..c47f14750722 100644 --- a/fs/ext3/super.c +++ b/fs/ext3/super.c @@ -174,6 +174,11 @@ static void ext3_handle_error(struct super_block *sb) if (test_opt (sb, ERRORS_RO)) { ext3_msg(sb, KERN_CRIT, "error: remounting filesystem read-only"); + /* + * Make sure updated value of ->s_mount_state will be visible + * before ->s_flags update. + */ + smp_wmb(); sb->s_flags |= MS_RDONLY; } ext3_commit_super(sb, es, 1); @@ -291,8 +296,14 @@ void ext3_abort(struct super_block *sb, const char *function, ext3_msg(sb, KERN_CRIT, "error: remounting filesystem read-only"); EXT3_SB(sb)->s_mount_state |= EXT3_ERROR_FS; - sb->s_flags |= MS_RDONLY; set_opt(EXT3_SB(sb)->s_mount_opt, ABORT); + /* + * Make sure updated value of ->s_mount_state will be visible + * before ->s_flags update. + */ + smp_wmb(); + sb->s_flags |= MS_RDONLY; + if (EXT3_SB(sb)->s_journal) journal_abort(EXT3_SB(sb)->s_journal, -EIO); } -- cgit v1.2.3
