commit c0a2ad9b50dd80eeccd73d9ff962234590d5ec93 upstream.
On umount path, jbd2_journal_destroy() writes latest transaction ID
(->j_tail_sequence) to be used at next mount.
The bug is that ->j_tail_sequence is not holding latest transaction ID
in some cases. So, at next mount, there is chance to conflict with
remaining (not overwritten yet) transactions.
mount (id=10)
write transaction (id=11)
write transaction (id=12)
umount (id=10) <= the bug doesn't write latest ID
mount (id=10)
write transaction (id=11)
crash
mount
[recovery process]
transaction (id=11)
transaction (id=12) <= valid transaction ID, but old commit
must not replay
Like above, this bug become the cause of recovery failure, or FS
corruption.
So why ->j_tail_sequence doesn't point latest ID?
Because if checkpoint transactions was reclaimed by memory pressure
(i.e. bdev_try_to_free_page()), then ->j_tail_sequence is not updated.
(And another case is, __jbd2_journal_clean_checkpoint_list() is called
with empty transaction.)
So in above cases, ->j_tail_sequence is not pointing latest
transaction ID at umount path. Plus, REQ_FLUSH for checkpoint is not
done too.
So, to fix this problem with minimum changes, this patch updates
->j_tail_sequence, and issue REQ_FLUSH. (With more complex changes,
some optimizations would be possible to avoid unnecessary REQ_FLUSH
for example though.)
BTW,
journal->j_tail_sequence =
++journal->j_transaction_sequence;
Increment of ->j_transaction_sequence seems to be unnecessary, but
ext3 does this.
