partitions/msdos: FreeBSD UFS2 file systems are not recognized

2017-06-17T04:44:17+00:00

commit 223220356d5ebc05ead9a8d697abb0c0a906fc81 upstream.

The code in block/partitions/msdos.c recognizes FreeBSD, OpenBSD
and NetBSD partitions and does a reasonable job picking out OpenBSD
and NetBSD UFS subpartitions.

But for FreeBSD the subpartitions are always "bad".

block: Avoid that blk_exit_rl() triggers a use-after-free

2017-06-14T13:07:43+00:00

commit b425e50492583b10cceb388af36ef0bd3bdf842a upstream.

Since the introduction of .init_rq_fn() and .exit_rq_fn() it is
essential that the memory allocated for struct request_queue
stays around until all blk_exit_rl() calls have finished. Hence
make blk_init_rl() take a reference on struct request_queue.

This patch fixes the following crash:

cfq-iosched: fix the delay of cfq_group's vdisktime under iops mode

2017-06-14T13:07:41+00:00

commit 5be6b75610cefd1e21b98a218211922c2feb6e08 upstream.

When adding a cfq_group into the cfq service tree, we use CFQ_IDLE_DELAY
as the delay of cfq_group's vdisktime if there have been other cfq_groups
already.

When cfq is under iops mode, commit 9a7f38c42c2b ("cfq-iosched: Convert
from jiffies to nanoseconds") could result in a large iops delay and
lead to an abnormal io schedule delay for the added cfq_group. To fix
it, we just need to revert to the old CFQ_IDLE_DELAY value: HZ / 5
when iops mode is enabled.

Despite having the same value, the delay of a cfq_queue in idle class
and the delay of cfq_group are different things, so I define two new
macros for the delay of a cfq_group under time-slice mode and iops mode.

block: fix blk_integrity_register to use template's interval_exp if not 0

2017-05-20T12:49:43+00:00

commit 2859323e35ab5fc42f351fbda23ab544eaa85945 upstream.

When registering an integrity profile: if the template's interval_exp is
not 0 use it, otherwise use the ilog2() of logical block size of the
provided gendisk.

This fixes a long-standing DM linear target bug where it cannot pass
integrity data to the underlying device if its logical block size
conflicts with the underlying device's logical block size.

block: get rid of blk_integrity_revalidate()

2017-05-14T12:06:03+00:00

commit 19b7ccf8651df09d274671b53039c672a52ad84d upstream.

Commit 25520d55cdb6 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk")
introduced blk_integrity_revalidate(), which seems to assume ownership
of the stable pages flag and unilaterally clears it if no blk_integrity
profile is registered:

    if (bi->profile)
            disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities |=
                    BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;
    else
            disk->queue->backing_dev_info->capabilities &=
                    ~BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;

It's called from revalidate_disk() and rescan_partitions(), making it
impossible to enable stable pages for drivers that support partitions
and don't use blk_integrity: while the call in revalidate_disk() can be
trivially worked around (see zram, which doesn't support partitions and
hence gets away with zram_revalidate_disk()), rescan_partitions() can
be triggered from userspace at any time.  This breaks rbd, where the
ceph messenger is responsible for generating/verifying CRCs.

Since blk_integrity_{un,}register() "must" be used for (un)registering
the integrity profile with the block layer, move BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES
setting there.  This way drivers that call blk_integrity_register() and
use integrity infrastructure won't interfere with drivers that don't
but still want stable pages.

blk-mq: fix potential oops with polling and blk-mq scheduler

2017-04-20T20:53:28+00:00

If we have a scheduler attached, blk_mq_tag_to_rq() on the
scheduled tags will return NULL if a request is no longer
in flight. This is different than using the normal tags,
where it will always return the fixed request. Check for
this condition for polling, in case we happen to enter
polling for a completed request.

The request address remains valid, so this check and return
should be perfectly safe.

If one driver claims that it doesn't support io scheduler via

availabe io schedulers.

blk-mq: Restart a single queue if tag sets are shared

2017-04-07T18:40:09+00:00

To improve scalability, if hardware queues are shared, restart
a single hardware queue in round-robin fashion. Rename
blk_mq_sched_restart_queues() to reflect the new semantics.
Remove blk_mq_sched_mark_restart_queue() because this function
has no callers. Remove flag QUEUE_FLAG_RESTART because this
patch removes the code that uses this flag.

blk-mq: remap queues when adding/removing hardware queues

2017-04-07T14:56:49+00:00

blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() used to remap hardware queues, which is the
behavior that drivers expect. However, commit 4e68a011428a changed
blk_mq_queue_reinit() to not remap queues for the case of CPU
hotplugging, inadvertently making blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() not remap
queues as well. This breaks, for example, NBD's multi-connection mode,
leaving the added hardware queues unused. Fix it by making
blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() explicitly remap the queues.
