This bug leads to reproducible silent data loss, despite the use of
msync(), sync() and a clean unmount of the file system. It is easily
reproducible with the following script:
----------------[BEGIN SCRIPT]--------------------
mkfs.nilfs2 -f /dev/sdb
mount /dev/sdb /mnt
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=30 of=/mnt/testfile
umount /mnt
mount /dev/sdb /mnt
CHECKSUM_BEFORE="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)"
/root/mmaptest/mmaptest /mnt/testfile 30 10 5
sync
CHECKSUM_AFTER="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)"
umount /mnt
mount /dev/sdb /mnt
CHECKSUM_AFTER_REMOUNT="$(md5sum /mnt/testfile)"
umount /mnt
echo "BEFORE MMAP:\t$CHECKSUM_BEFORE"
echo "AFTER MMAP:\t$CHECKSUM_AFTER"
echo "AFTER REMOUNT:\t$CHECKSUM_AFTER_REMOUNT"
----------------[END SCRIPT]--------------------
The mmaptest tool looks something like this (very simplified, with
error checking removed):
----------------[BEGIN mmaptest]--------------------
data = mmap(NULL, file_size - file_offset, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED, fd, file_offset);
for (i = 0; i < write_count; ++i) {
memcpy(data + i * 4096, buf, sizeof(buf));
msync(data, file_size - file_offset, MS_SYNC))
}
----------------[END mmaptest]--------------------
The output of the script looks something like this:
BEFORE MMAP: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile
AFTER MMAP: 6604a1c31f10780331a6850371b3a313 /mnt/testfile
AFTER REMOUNT: 281ed1d5ae50e8419f9b978aab16de83 /mnt/testfile
So it is clear, that the changes done using mmap() do not survive a
remount. This can be reproduced a 100% of the time. The problem was
