[ Upstream commit 13f3956eb5681a4045a8dfdef48df5dc4d9f58a6 ]

Syzkaller reports a warning in _copy_from_iter because an
iov_iter is supposedly used in the wrong direction. The reason
is that syzcaller managed to generate a request with
a transfer direction of SG_DXFER_TO_FROM_DEV. This instructs
the kernel to copy user buffers into the kernel, read into
the copied buffers and then copy the data back to user space.

Thus the iovec is used in both directions.

Detect this situation in the block layer and construct a new
iterator with the correct direction for the copy-in.

[ Upstream commit 748dc0b65ec2b4b7b3dbd7befcc4a54fdcac7988 ]

Partial completions of zone append request is not allowed but if a zone
append completion indicates a number of completed bytes different from
the original BIO size, only the BIO status is set to error. This leads
to bio_advance() not setting the BIO size to 0 and thus to not call
bio_endio() at the end of req_bio_endio().

Make sure a partially completed zone append is failed and completed
immediately by forcing the completed number of bytes (nbytes) to be
equal to the BIO size, thus ensuring that bio_endio() is called.

<title>block: treat poll queue enter similarly to timeouts</title>

commit 33391eecd63158536fb5257fee5be3a3bdc30e3c upstream.

We ran into an issue where a production workload would randomly grind to
a halt and not continue until the pending IO had timed out. This turned
out to be a complicated interaction between queue freezing and polled
IO:

1) You have an application that does polled IO. At any point in time,
   there may be polled IO pending.

2) You have a monitoring application that issues a passthrough command,
   which is marked with side effects such that it needs to freeze the
   queue.

3) Passthrough command is started, which calls blk_freeze_queue_start()
   on the device. At this point the queue is marked frozen, and any
   attempt to enter the queue will fail (for non-blocking) or block.

4) Now the driver calls blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait(), which will return
   when the queue is quiesced and pending IO has completed.

5) The pending IO is polled IO, but any attempt to poll IO through the
   normal iocb_bio_iopoll() -&gt; bio_poll() will fail when it gets to
   bio_queue_enter() as the queue is frozen. Rather than poll and
   complete IO, the polling threads will sit in a tight loop attempting
   to poll, but failing to enter the queue to do so.

The end result is that progress for either application will be stalled
until all pending polled IO has timed out. This causes obvious huge
latency issues for the application doing polled IO, but also long delays
for passthrough command.

Fix this by treating queue enter for polled IO just like we do for
timeouts. This allows quick quiesce of the queue as we still poll and
complete this IO, while still disallowing queueing up new IO.

[ Upstream commit 2a427b49d02995ea4a6ff93a1432c40fa4d36821 ]

When iocg_kick_delay() is called from a CPU different than the one which set
the delay, @now may be in the past of @iocg-&gt;delay_at leading to the
following warning:

  UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in block/blk-iocost.c:1359:23
  shift exponent 18446744073709 is too large for 64-bit type 'u64' (aka 'unsigned long long')
  ...
  Call Trace:
   &lt;TASK&gt;
   dump_stack_lvl+0x79/0xc0
   __ubsan_handle_shift_out_of_bounds+0x2ab/0x300
   iocg_kick_delay+0x222/0x230

   submit_bio_noacct_nocheck+0x320/0x3e0
   __swap_writepage+0x2ab/0x9d0

The underflow itself doesn't really affect the behavior in any meaningful
way; however, the past timestamp may exaggerate the delay amount calculated
later in the code, which shouldn't be a material problem given the nature of
the delay mechanism.

If @now is in the past, this CPU is racing another CPU which recently set up
the delay and there's nothing this CPU can contribute w.r.t. the delay.
Let's bail early from iocg_kick_delay() in such cases.

[ Upstream commit 5266caaf5660529e3da53004b8b7174cab6374ed ]

In blk_mq_mark_tag_wait(), __add_wait_queue() may be re-ordered
with the following blk_mq_get_driver_tag() in case of getting driver
tag failure.

Then in __sbitmap_queue_wake_up(), waitqueue_active() may not observe
the added waiter in blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() and wake up nothing, meantime
blk_mq_mark_tag_wait() can't get driver tag successfully.

This issue can be reproduced by running the following test in loop, and
fio hang can be observed in &lt; 30min when running it on my test VM
in laptop.

	modprobe -r scsi_debug
	modprobe scsi_debug delay=0 dev_size_mb=4096 max_queue=1 host_max_queue=1 submit_queues=4
	dev=`ls -d /sys/bus/pseudo/drivers/scsi_debug/adapter*/host*/target*/*/block/* | head -1 | xargs basename`
	fio --filename=/dev/"$dev" --direct=1 --rw=randrw --bs=4k --iodepth=1 \
       		--runtime=100 --numjobs=40 --time_based --name=test \
        	--ioengine=libaio

Fix the issue by adding one explicit barrier in blk_mq_mark_tag_wait(), which
is just fine in case of running out of tag.

Commit 1a721de8489f ("block: don't add or resize partition on the disk
with GENHD_FL_NO_PART") prevented all operations about partitions on disks
with GENHD_FL_NO_PART in blkpg_do_ioctl() since they are meaningless.
However, it changed error code in some scenarios. So move checking
GENHD_FL_NO_PART to bdev_add_partition() to eliminate impact.

Fixes: 1a721de8489f ("block: don't add or resize partition on the disk with GENHD_FL_NO_PART")

[ Upstream commit 7777f47f2ea64efd1016262e7b59fab34adfb869 ]

Commit 1a721de8489f ("block: don't add or resize partition on the disk
with GENHD_FL_NO_PART") prevented all operations about partitions on disks
with GENHD_FL_NO_PART in blkpg_do_ioctl() since they are meaningless.
However, it changed error code in some scenarios. So move checking
GENHD_FL_NO_PART to bdev_add_partition() to eliminate impact.

<title>block: Remove special-casing of compound pages</title>

commit 1b151e2435fc3a9b10c8946c6aebe9f3e1938c55 upstream.

The special casing was originally added in pre-git history; reproducing
the commit log here:

&gt; commit a318a92567d77
&gt; Author: Andrew Morton &lt;akpm@osdl.org&gt;
&gt; Date:   Sun Sep 21 01:42:22 2003 -0700
&gt;
&gt;     [PATCH] Speed up direct-io hugetlbpage handling
&gt;
&gt;     This patch short-circuits all the direct-io page dirtying logic for
&gt;     higher-order pages.  Without this, we pointlessly bounce BIOs up to
&gt;     keventd all the time.

In the last twenty years, compound pages have become used for more than
just hugetlb.  Rewrite these functions to operate on folios instead
of pages and remove the special case for hugetlbfs; I don't think
it's needed any more (and if it is, we can put it back in as a call
to folio_test_hugetlb()).

This was found by inspection; as far as I can tell, this bug can lead
to pages used as the destination of a direct I/O read not being marked
as dirty.  If those pages are then reclaimed by the MM without being
dirtied for some other reason, they won't be written out.  Then when
they're faulted back in, they will not contain the data they should.
It'll take a pretty unusual setup to produce this problem with several
races all going the wrong way.

This problem predates the folio work; it could for example have been
triggered by mmaping a THP in tmpfs and using that as the target of an
O_DIRECT read.

[ Upstream commit 7b4f36cd22a65b750b4cb6ac14804fb7d6e6c67d ]

q_usage_counter is the only thing preventing us from the limits changing
under us in __bio_split_to_limits, but blk_mq_submit_bio doesn't hold
it while calling into it.

Move the splitting inside the region where we know we've got a queue
reference. Ideally this could still remain a shared section of code, but
let's keep the fix simple and defer any refactoring here to later.

<title>block: add check that partition length needs to be aligned with block size</title>

commit 6f64f866aa1ae6975c95d805ed51d7e9433a0016 upstream.

Before calling add partition or resize partition, there is no check
on whether the length is aligned with the logical block size.
If the logical block size of the disk is larger than 512 bytes,
then the partition size maybe not the multiple of the logical block size,
and when the last sector is read, bio_truncate() will adjust the bio size,
resulting in an IO error if the size of the read command is smaller than
the logical block size.If integrity data is supported, this will also
result in a null pointer dereference when calling bio_integrity_free.
