- Fix an incorrect free space calculation in xfs_reserve_blocks that
could lead to a request for free blocks that will never succeed.
- Fix a hang in xfs_reserve_blocks caused by an infinite loop and the
incorrect free space calculation.
- Fix yet a third problem in xfs_reserve_blocks where multiple racing
threads can overfill the reserve pool.
- Fix an accounting error that lead to us reporting reserved space as
"available".
- Fix a race condition during abnormal fs shutdown that could cause UAF
problems when memory reclaim and log shutdown try to clean up inodes.
- Fix a bug where log shutdown can race with unmount to tear down the
log, thereby causing UAF errors.
- Disentangle log and filesystem shutdown to reduce confusion.
- Fix some confusion in xfs_trans_commit such that a race between
transaction commit and filesystem shutdown can cause unlogged dirty
inode metadata to be committed, thereby corrupting the filesystem.
- Remove a performance optimization in the log as it was discovered that
certain storage hardware handle async log flushes so poorly as to
cause serious performance regressions. Recent restructuring of other
parts of the logging code mean that no performance benefit is seen on
hardware that handle it well.

Pull xfs fixes from Darrick Wong:
"This fixes multiple problems in the reserve pool sizing functions: an
incorrect free space calculation, a pointless infinite loop, and even
more braindamage that could result in the pool being overfilled. The
pile of patches from Dave fix myriad races and UAF bugs in the log
recovery code that much to our mutual surprise nobody's tripped over.
Dave also fixed a performance optimization that had turned into a
regression.
Dave Chinner is taking over as XFS maintainer starting Sunday and
lasting until 5.19-rc1 is tagged so that I can focus on starting a
massive design review for the (feature complete after five years)
online repair feature. From then on, he and I will be moving XFS to a
co-maintainership model by trading duties every other release.
NOTE: I hope very strongly that the other pieces of the (X)FS
ecosystem (fstests and xfsprogs) will make similar changes to spread
their maintenance load.
Summary:
- Fix an incorrect free space calculation in xfs_reserve_blocks that
could lead to a request for free blocks that will never succeed.
- Fix a hang in xfs_reserve_blocks caused by an infinite loop and the
incorrect free space calculation.
- Fix yet a third problem in xfs_reserve_blocks where multiple racing
threads can overfill the reserve pool.
- Fix an accounting error that lead to us reporting reserved space as
"available".
- Fix a race condition during abnormal fs shutdown that could cause
UAF problems when memory reclaim and log shutdown try to clean up
inodes.
- Fix a bug where log shutdown can race with unmount to tear down the
log, thereby causing UAF errors.
- Disentangle log and filesystem shutdown to reduce confusion.
- Fix some confusion in xfs_trans_commit such that a race between
transaction commit and filesystem shutdown can cause unlogged dirty
inode metadata to be committed, thereby corrupting the filesystem.
- Remove a performance optimization in the log as it was discovered
that certain storage hardware handle async log flushes so poorly as
