Filipe Manana 8e7f82deb0 btrfs: fix race between reading a directory and adding entries to it
When opening a directory (opendir(3)) or rewinding it (rewinddir(3)), we
are not holding the directory's inode locked, and this can result in later
attempting to add two entries to the directory with the same index number,
resulting in a transaction abort, with -EEXIST (-17), when inserting the
second delayed dir index. This results in a trace like the following:

The race leading to the problem happens like this:

1) Directory inode X is loaded into memory, its ->index_cnt field is
   initialized to (u64)-1 (at btrfs_alloc_inode());

2) Task A is adding a new file to directory X, holding its vfs inode lock,
   and calls btrfs_set_inode_index() to get an index number for the entry.

   Because the inode's index_cnt field is set to (u64)-1 it calls
   btrfs_inode_delayed_dir_index_count() which fails because no dir index
   entries were added yet to the delayed inode and then it calls
   btrfs_set_inode_index_count(). This functions finds the last dir index
   key and then sets index_cnt to that index value + 1. It found that the
   last index key has an offset of 100. However before it assigns a value
   of 101 to index_cnt...

3) Task B calls opendir(3), ending up at btrfs_opendir(), where the VFS
   lock for inode X is not taken, so it calls btrfs_get_dir_last_index()
   and sees index_cnt still with a value of (u64)-1. Because of that it
   calls btrfs_inode_delayed_dir_index_count() which fails since no dir
   index entries were added to the delayed inode yet, and then it also
   calls btrfs_set_inode_index_count(). This also finds that the last
   index key has an offset of 100, and before it assigns the value 101
   to the index_cnt field of inode X...

4) Task A assigns a value of 101 to index_cnt. And then the code flow
   goes to btrfs_set_inode_index() where it increments index_cnt from
   101 to 102. Task A then creates a delayed dir index entry with a
   sequence number of 101 and adds it to the delayed inode;

5) Task B assigns 101 to the index_cnt field of inode X;

6) At some later point when someone tries to add a new entry to the
   directory, btrfs_set_inode_index() will return 101 again and shortly
   after an attempt to add another delayed dir index key with index
   number 101 will fail with -EEXIST resulting in a transaction abort.

Fix this by locking the inode at btrfs_get_dir_last_index(), which is only
only used when opening a directory or attempting to lseek on it.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
