While reviewing the buffer item recovery code, the thought occurred to
me: in V5 filesystems we use log sequence number (LSN) tracking to avoid
replaying older metadata updates against newer log items. However, we
use the magic number of the ondisk buffer to find the LSN of the ondisk
metadata, which means that if an attacker can control the layout of the
realtime device precisely enough that the start of an rt bitmap block
matches the magic and UUID of some other kind of block, they can control
the purported LSN of that spoofed block and thereby break log replay.
Since realtime bitmap and summary blocks don't have headers at all, we
have no way to tell if a block really should be replayed. The best we
can do is replay unconditionally and hope for the best.

From the department of "WTAF? How did we miss that!?"...
When we are recovering a buffer, the first thing we do is check the
buffer magic number and extract the LSN from the buffer. If the LSN
is older than the current LSN, we replay the modification to it. If
the metadata on disk is newer than the transaction in the log, we
skip it. This is a fundamental v5 filesystem metadata recovery
behaviour.
generic/482 failed with an attribute writeback failure during log
recovery. The write verifier caught the corruption before it got
written to disk, and the attr buffer dump looked like:
XFS (dm-3): Metadata corruption detected at xfs_attr3_leaf_verify+0x275/0x2e0, xfs_attr3_leaf block 0x19be8

The highlighted bytes are the LSN that was replayed into the
buffer: 0x100000538. This is cycle 1, block 0x538. Prior to replay,
that block on disk looks like this:
$ sudo xfs_db -c "fsb 0x417d" -c "type attr3" -c p /dev/mapper/thin-vol
hdr.info.hdr.forw = 0
hdr.info.hdr.back = 0
hdr.info.hdr.magic = 0x3bee
hdr.info.crc = 0xb5af0bc6 (correct)
hdr.info.bno = 105448
hdr.info.lsn = 0x100000900
^^^^^^^^^^^
hdr.info.uuid = df395e51-58ac-44b6-8dc5-e7104409bc17
hdr.info.owner = 131203
hdr.count = 2
hdr.usedbytes = 120
hdr.firstused = 3796
hdr.holes = 1
hdr.freemap[0-2] = [base,size]
Note the LSN stamped into the buffer on disk: 1/0x900. The version
on disk is much newer than the log transaction that was being
replayed. That's a bug, and should -never- happen.
So I immediately went to look at xlog_recover_get_buf_lsn() to check
that we handled the LSN correctly. I was wondering if there was a
similar "two commits with the same start LSN skips the second
replay" problem with buffers. I didn't get that far, because I found
a much more basic, rudimentary bug: xlog_recover_get_buf_lsn()
doesn't recognise buffers with XFS_ATTR3_LEAF_MAGIC set in them!!!
IOWs, attr3 leaf buffers fall through the magic number checks
unrecognised, so trigger the "recover immediately" behaviour instead
of undergoing an LSN check. IOWs, we incorrectly replay ATTR3 leaf
buffers and that causes silent on disk corruption of inode attribute
forks and potentially other things....
Git history shows this is *another* zero day bug, this time
introduced in commit 50d5c8d8e9 ("xfs: check LSN ordering for v5
superblocks during recovery") which failed to handle the attr3 leaf
buffers in recovery. And we've failed to handle them ever since...

Nathan popped up on #xfs and pointed out that we fail to handle
finobt btree blocks in xlog_recover_get_buf_lsn(). This means they
always fall through the entire magic number matching code to "recover
immediately". Whilst most of the time this is the correct behaviour,
occasionally it will be incorrect and could potentially overwrite
more recent metadata because we don't check the LSN in the on disk
metadata at all.
This bug has been present since the finobt was first introduced, and
is a potential cause of the occasional xfs_iget_check_free_state()
failures we see that indicate that the inode btree state does not
match the on disk inode state.

The log recovery I/O completion handler does not substancially differ from
the normal one except for the fact that it:
a) never retries failed writes
b) can have log items that aren't on the AIL
c) never has inode/dquot log items attached and thus don't need to
handle them
Add conditionals for (a) and (b) to the ioend code, while (c) doesn't
need special handling anyway.

xfs_qm_reset_dqcounts (aka quotacheck) is the only xfs_dqblk_verify
caller that actually knows the specific quota type that it's looking
for. Since everything else just pass in type==0 (including the buffer
verifier), drop the parameter and open-code the check like
xfs_dquot_from_disk already does.

Log recovery has it's own buffer write completion handler for
buffers that it directly recovers. Convert these to direct calls by
flagging these buffers as being log recovery buffers. The flag will
get cleared by the log recovery IO completion routine, so it will
never leak out of log recovery.
