Description kenjiuno 2018-12-18 05:42:50 UTC
I had a NAS (based on samba) didn't send disk i/o error code to client on directory scanning operation.

If it is true, is there chance to send error code such as STATUS_FILE_CORRUPT_ERROR to client?

// It is used in real file system driver like fastfat.
// https://github.com/Microsoft/Windows-driver-samples/blob/6c1981b8504329521343ad00f32daa847fa6083a/filesys/fastfat/dirsup.c

I could reproduce this problem using dmsetup error mapping simulation.

Here is ls command output saying about an error at /mnt/test/broken/

```
ku@samba-server:~$ ls /mnt/test/broken/
ls: reading directory '/mnt/test/broken/': Input/output error
```

However smbd through smbclient won't say error at //127.0.0.1/test/broken/

```
ku@samba-server:~$ /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient //127.0.0.1/test

```

Windows share folder can say a status code like NT_STATUS_DEVICE_NOT_READY on device error:

```
smb: \folder1\folder2\folder3\> cd folder4\
smb: \folder1\folder2\folder3\folder4\> ls
NT_STATUS_DEVICE_NOT_READY listing \folder1\folder2\folder3\folder4\*
```

// NT_STATUS_DEVICE_NOT_READY is reported because iSCSI target returns "0010 = Sense Key: Not Ready (0x2)" on disk error.
// I have build iSCSI target on CentOS7 using dmsetup error mapping.

I'm not sure about smbd source code. So I'm afraid could you look into this problem?

I think samba is great software. I'll support for fixing this problem!

Here are some commands I have used to create an ext2 image file and block device reporting i/o error.

# dd if=/dev/zero of=~/ext2 bs=60KiB count=1
# mkfs.ext2 ~/ext2
# losetup -f ~/ext2
# losetup -l
# mount /dev/loop0 /mnt/test/
# mkdir /mnt/test/folder1
# mkdir /mnt/test/folder1/folder2
# mkdir /mnt/test/folder1/folder2/folder3
# umount /mnt/test
# vi errormap

0 116 linear /dev/loop0 0
116 1 error
117 3 linear /dev/loop0 117

# dmsetup create baddisk < errormap
# mount /dev/mapper/baddisk /mnt/test/

[root@localhost ~]# ls /mnt/test/folder1/folder2/
ls: reading directory /mnt/test/folder1/folder2/: Input/output error

Sharing /mnt/test with smbd will be useful to verify.
Comment 2 Jeremy Allison 2018-12-21 01:03:16 UTC
Can you get a debug level 10 log trace from smbd, that will allow us to see what error code we're getting back from a system call that fails when accessing the corrupt disk ?

Comment 4 kenjiuno 2018-12-21 04:16:42 UTC
Thanks,
I have attached 2 logs.

log-bad = smbclient requested smbd to access i/o error directory.
log-good = smbclient requested smbd to access normal directory.

just my quick look for significant difference starts at:

log-good
8034: smbd_dirptr_get_entry: dirptr 0x5655334faff0 now at offset 9223372036854775807

log-bad
8034: smbd_dirptr_get_entry: dirptr 0x5604de79ac60 now at offset -1


my commands:

# smbd -i -S --debuglevel=10 -s ~/smb.conf > log

# smbclient -c "cd /folder1/folder2/ ; ls" //192.168.2.51/test
Comment 5 kenjiuno 2018-12-25 04:29:08 UTC
In my quick research, readdir failure (errno variable) in vfswrap_readdir seems not to be processed.

Comment 6 kenjiuno 2018-12-25 04:53:57 UTC
For later reference: readdir fails in errno EIO.

```
[root@localhost ~]# ./a.out /mnt/test/folder1/folder2/
opendir 0xc3e010 0
readdir (nil) 5
```

#define EIO              5      /* I/O error */

> EIO
> Input/output error (POSIX.1)

https://linux.die.net/man/3/errno
Comment 7 Jeremy Allison 2019-01-07 18:32:53 UTC
Yes, vfswrap_readdir() won't process the errno, that should be done at the calling layer if readdir() returns NULL.

Ah, I see the problem. readdir() is a horrid interface in that end-of-directory and error are both returned as NULL, and the caller must distinguish. That means errno must be set to 0 *before* calling readdir and then checked on return.

I'll see what I can do.

Comment 9 kenjiuno 2019-07-30 07:08:09 UTC
I have posted a rough patch.

It can reply STATUS_FILE_CORRUPT_ERROR to smbclient
when readdir() fails with EIO.

```
