EXt4 is triggering a BUG_ON:
handle_t *handle = journal_current_handle();
int err;
if (!journal)
return ERR_PTR(-EROFS);
if (handle) {
>>>>>>>>> J_ASSERT(handle->h_transaction->t_journal == journal);
handle->h_ref++;
return handle;
}
via a journal assert failure. It appears that current->journal_info
isn't what it is supposed to be. It's finding something with TRAN in
it, I think. I'll come back to this.
What syzbot is doing is creating a file on it's root filesystem and
write()ing 0x208e24b bytes (zeroes from an anonymous mmap() region,
I think) to it to initialise it's contents.
Then it mmap()s the ext4 file for 0xb36000 bytes and copies the raw
test filesystem image in the source code into it. It then creates a
memfd that it decompresses the data in the mapped ext4 file into and
creates a loop device that points to that memfd. It then mounts the
loop device and we get an XFS filesystem which doesn't appear to
contain any corruptions in it at all. It then runs a bulkstat pass
on the the XFS filesystem.
This is where it gets interesting. The user buffer that XFS
copies the inode data into points to a memory address inside the
range of the ext4 file that the filesystem image was copied to.
It does not overlap with the filesystem image.
Hence when XFS goes to copy the inodes into the user buffer, it
triggers write page faults on the ext4 backing file.
That's this part of the trace:

What is interesting here is this is running in an empty XFS
transaction context so that the bulkstat operation garbage collects
all the buffers it accesses without us having to explicit cleanup -
they all get released when we cancel the transaction context at the
end of the process.
But that means copy-out is running inside a transaction context, and
that means current->journal_info contains a pointer to the current
struct xfs_trans the bulkstat operation is using.
Guess what we have as the first item in a struct xfs_trans? That's
right, it's a magic number, and that magic number is:
#define XFS_TRANS_HEADER_MAGIC 0x5452414e /* TRAN */
It should be obvious what has happened now -
current->journal_info is not null, so ext4 thinks it owns the
structure attached there and panics when it finds that it isn't an
ext4 journal handle being held there.
I don't think there are any clear rules as to how filesystems can
and can't use current->journal_info. In general, a task can't jump
from one filesystem to another inside a transaction context like
this, so there's never been a serious concern about nested
current->journal_info assignments like this in the past.
XFS is doing nothing wrong - we're allowed to define transaction
contexts however we want and use current->journal_info in this way.
However, we have to acknowledge that ext4 has also done nothing
wrong by assuming current->journal_info should below to it if it is
not null. Indeed, XFS does the same thing.
The question here is what to do about this? The obvious solution is
to have save/restore semantics in the filesystem code that
sets/clears current->journal_info, and then filesystems can also do
the necessary "recursion into same filesystem" checks they need to
ensure that they aren't nesting transactions in a way that can
deadlock.
Maybe there are other options - should filesystems even be allowed to
trigger page faults when they have set current->journal_info?
What other potential avenues are there that could cause this sort of
transaction context nesting that we haven't realised exist? Does
ext4 data=jounral have problems like this in the data copy-in path?
What other filesystems allow page faults in transaction contexts?
Cheers,
Dave.

Getting late here, so this will be pretty terse--
Thinking narrowly about just xfs, I think this means that the
bulkstat/inumbers implementations need to allocate a bounce buffer to
format records into so that it can copy_to_user without any locks held.
We have no idea if the destination page is a file page or anonymous
memory or whatever. Or: Do we really need to set current->journal_info
for empty transactions?

We don't know what locks might be held by whatever code set
journal_info. I don't see how we could push it aside sanely?

I wonder if we ought to be checking current->journal_info in our own
page_mkwrite handler and throwing back an errno? I don't think we want
to go down the rabbithele of "someone else was running a transaction,
maybe we can proceed with an update anyway???".

Nice analysis. Fundamentally the current usage of
current->journal_info assumes that a process would only be calling
into one file system at a time. But obviously that's not going to be
true in the case of one file system writing to memory which then
triggers a page fault.
As far as other potential avenues that could cause this kind of
nesting, the other one which comes to mind might be sendfile(2) --
although in general the reader side won't trigger a transaction since
the atime update tends to be done lazily.

Hmm, could XFS pre-fault target memory buffer for the bulkstat output
before starting its transaction? Alternatively, ext4 could do a save
of current->journal_info before starting to process the page fault,
and restore it when it is done. Both of these seem a bit hacky, and
the question is indeed, are there other avenues that might cause the
transaction context nesting, such that a more general solution is
called for?

Depends. Look at it from the POV of XFS:
1. we can identify current->journal_info as belonging to XFS because
of the TRAN magic number in the first 32 bits of the structure.
2. the struct xfs_trans has a pointer to the xfs_mount which points
to the VFS superblock, which means we can identify exactly which
filesystem instance the transaction belongs to.
3. We can determine if the transaction has a journal reservation
from the log ticket the transaction holds.
From these three things, we can identify if we are about to recurse
into the same filesystem, and if so, determine if it is safe to run
new transactions from within that context.

On further thinking I don't think the problem is taking page faults
within a filesystem transaction context is the problem here. We're
using the transaction context for automated garbage collection so we
never have to care about leaking object references in the code, not
because we are running a modification and holding a journal
reservation. It's the journals reservations that cannot be allowed
to nest in XFS, not the transactions themselves.
IOWs, the real problem is that multiple filesystems use the same
task field for their own individual purposes, and that then leads
these sorts of recursion problems when a task jumps from one
filesystem context to another and the task field is then
mis-interpretted.
I've had a look at the XFS usage of current->journal_info, and I
think we can just remove it.
It's used for warning that we are running a writepages operations
from within transaction context (which should never happen from XFS
nor memory reclaim). it's also used in the ->destroy_inode path to
determine if we are running in a context where we cannot block on
filesystem locks or transaction reservations.
The former we can remove with no loss, the latter we can simply
check PF_MEMALLOC_NOFS as that is set by transaction contexts.
IOWs, I think that, in general, page faults in user buffers are fine
in empty XFS transaction contexts as long as we aren't using some
structure that some other filesystem might then to process the
page fault....
This may not be true for other filesystems, but I don't think we
can really say "page faults in any filesystem transaction are unsafe
and should be banned"....

I'd suggest that saving off current->journal_info is risky because
it might cover a real problem where you've taken a pagefault inside
a transaction (eg ext4 faulting while in the middle of a transaction on
the same filesystem that contains the faulting file).
Seems to me that we shouldn't be writing to userspace while in the
middle of a transaction. We could even assert that in copy_to_user()?

I think the point is page faults with current->journal_info set is
unsafe, as the can recurse into another file system using it. If we
don't set current->journal_info (and your ideas for that sound sensible
to me), the question of page faults in transactions is decoupled from
that. We just need to ensure we never recurse into a transaction in
the same or a dependent fs, which ot me suggest we'd better avoid it
if we easily can.

As others have mentioned, this seems potentially dangerous because that
just hides potential deadlocks. E.g. for ext4 taking a page fault while
having a transaction started violates lock ordering requirements
(mapping->invalidate_lock > transaction start). OTOH we have lockdep
tracking for this anyway so I guess we don't care too much for ext4.

For ext4 it would definitely be a bug if this happens and it is not only
about usage of current->journal_info as I wrote above.

So I'm reasonably confident we aren't hitting any such path in ext4 as
lockdep would tell us about it (we treat transaction start as lock
acquisition in jbd2 and tell lockdep about it). For the write path, we are
relying on VFS prefaulting pages before calling ->write_begin (where we
start a transaction) and then doing atomic copy. For the read path we don't
start any transaction (except for possible atime update but that's just a
tiny transaction on the side after the read completes). So ext4 on its own
should be fine. But we have also btrfs, ceph, gfs2, nilfs2, ocfs2, and
reiserfs using current->journal_info so overall chances for interaction are
... non-trivial.

Sorry but no. Dave found a way to fix this particular problem in XFS and
your patch would not really improve anything because we'd just crash
when dereferencing handle->saved_alloc_context.
