File grub-install-force-journal-draining-to-ensure-data-i.patch of Package grub2.35493
From 3085db0922a1d803d4a9dfe54daae6fef20e4340 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Chang <mchang@suse.com> Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2020 16:08:59 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] grub-install: force journal draining to ensure data integrity In XFS, the system would end up in unbootable state if an abrupt power off after grub-install is occuring. It can be easily reproduced with. grub-install /dev/vda; reboot -f The grub error would show many different kinds of corruption in filesystem and the problem boils down to incompleted journal transaction which would leave pending writes behind in the on-disk journal. It is therefore necessary to recover the system via re-mounting the filesystem from linux system that all pending journal log can be replayed. On the other hand if journal draining can be enforced by grub-install then it can bring more resilience to such abrupt power loss. The fsync is not enough here for XFS, because that only writes in-memory log to on-disk (ie makes sure broken state can be repaired). Unfortunately there's no designated system call to serve solely for the journal draining, so it can only be achieved via fsfreeze system call that the journal draining can happen as a byproduct during the process. This patch adds fsfreeze/unfreeze at the end of grub-install to induce journal draining on journaled file system. However btrfs is excluded from the list as it is using fsync to drain journal and also is not desired as reportedly having negative side effect. With this patch applied, the boot falilure can no longer be reproduced with above procedure. v2: Fix boot failure after kdump due to the content of grub.cfg is not completed with pending modificaton in xfs journal (bsc#1186975) Signed-off-by: Michael Chang <mchang@suse.com> --- Makefile.util.def | 1 + grub-core/osdep/basic/journaled_fs.c | 26 +++++++++++++++++++ grub-core/osdep/journaled_fs.c | 5 ++++ grub-core/osdep/linux/journaled_fs.c | 48 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/grub/util/install.h | 2 ++ util/grub-install.c | 20 +++++++++++++++ 6 files changed, 102 insertions(+) create mode 100644 grub-core/osdep/basic/journaled_fs.c create mode 100644 grub-core/osdep/journaled_fs.c create mode 100644 grub-core/osdep/linux/journaled_fs.c --- a/Makefile.util.def +++ b/Makefile.util.def @@ -672,6 +672,9 @@ emu_condition = COND_s390x; common = grub-core/kern/emu/argp_common.c; common = grub-core/osdep/init.c; + common = grub-core/osdep/journaled_fs.c; + extra_dist = grub-core/osdep/basic/journaled_fs.c; + extra_dist = grub-core/osdep/linux/journaled_fs.c; ldadd = '$(LIBLZMA)'; ldadd = libgrubmods.a; --- /dev/null +++ b/grub-core/osdep/basic/journaled_fs.c @@ -0,0 +1,26 @@ +/* + * GRUB -- GRand Unified Bootloader + * Copyright (C) 2010,2011,2012,2013 Free Software Foundation, Inc. + * + * GRUB is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify + * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + * the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or + * (at your option) any later version. + * + * GRUB is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
