block: fix conversion of GPT partition name to 7-bit 2025-03-13T12:07:49+00:00 Olivier Gayot olivier.gayot@canonical.com 2025-03-05T02:21:54+00:00 abeb7da13420a509cb4ea7a9c1fb9a74cc79eaef commit e06472bab2a5393430cc2fbc3211cd3602422c1e upstream. The utf16_le_to_7bit function claims to, naively, convert a UTF-16 string to a 7-bit ASCII string. By naively, we mean that it: * drops the first byte of every character in the original UTF-16 string * checks if all characters are printable, and otherwise replaces them by exclamation mark "!". This means that theoretically, all characters outside the 7-bit ASCII range should be replaced by another character. Examples: * lower-case alpha (ɒ) 0x0252 becomes 0x52 (R) * ligature OE (œ) 0x0153 becomes 0x53 (S) * hangul letter pieup (ㅂ) 0x3142 becomes 0x42 (B) * upper-case gamma (Ɣ) 0x0194 becomes 0x94 (not printable) so gets replaced by "!" The result of this conversion for the GPT partition name is passed to user-space as PARTNAME via udev, which is confusing and feels questionable. However, there is a flaw in the conversion function itself. By dropping one byte of each character and using isprint() to check if the remaining byte corresponds to a printable character, we do not actually guarantee that the resulting character is 7-bit ASCII. This happens because we pass 8-bit characters to isprint(), which in the kernel returns 1 for many values > 0x7f - as defined in ctype.c. This results in many values which should be replaced by "!" to be kept as-is, despite not being valid 7-bit ASCII. Examples: * e with acute accent (é) 0x00E9 becomes 0xE9 - kept as-is because isprint(0xE9) returns 1. * euro sign (€) 0x20AC becomes 0xAC - kept as-is because isprint(0xAC) returns 1.

commit e06472bab2a5393430cc2fbc3211cd3602422c1e upstream.

The utf16_le_to_7bit function claims to, naively, convert a UTF-16
string to a 7-bit ASCII string. By naively, we mean that it:
 * drops the first byte of every character in the original UTF-16 string
 * checks if all characters are printable, and otherwise replaces them
   by exclamation mark "!".

This means that theoretically, all characters outside the 7-bit ASCII
range should be replaced by another character. Examples:

 * lower-case alpha (ɒ) 0x0252 becomes 0x52 (R)
 * ligature OE (œ) 0x0153 becomes 0x53 (S)
 * hangul letter pieup (ㅂ) 0x3142 becomes 0x42 (B)
 * upper-case gamma (Ɣ) 0x0194 becomes 0x94 (not printable) so gets
   replaced by "!"

The result of this conversion for the GPT partition name is passed to
user-space as PARTNAME via udev, which is confusing and feels questionable.

However, there is a flaw in the conversion function itself. By dropping
one byte of each character and using isprint() to check if the remaining
byte corresponds to a printable character, we do not actually guarantee
that the resulting character is 7-bit ASCII.

This happens because we pass 8-bit characters to isprint(), which
in the kernel returns 1 for many values > 0x7f - as defined in ctype.c.

This results in many values which should be replaced by "!" to be kept
as-is, despite not being valid 7-bit ASCII. Examples:

 * e with acute accent (é) 0x00E9 becomes 0xE9 - kept as-is because
   isprint(0xE9) returns 1.
 * euro sign (€) 0x20AC becomes 0xAC - kept as-is because isprint(0xAC)
   returns 1.

This way has broken pyudev utility[1], fixes it by using a mask of 7 bits
instead of 8 bits before calling isprint.

For devices that natively support zone append operations, REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND BIOs are not processed through zone write plugging and are immediately issued to the zoned device. This means that there is no write pointer offset tracking done for these operations and that a zone write plug is not necessary. However, when receiving a zone append BIO, we may already have a zone write plug for the target zone if that zone was previously partially written using regular write operations. In such case, since the write pointer offset of the zone write plug is not incremented by the amount of sectors appended to the zone, 2 issues arise: 1) we risk leaving the plug in the disk hash table if the zone is fully written using zone append or regular write operations, because the write pointer offset will never reach the "zone full" state. 2) Regular write operations that are issued after zone append operations will always be failed by blk_zone_wplug_prepare_bio() as the write pointer alignment check will fail, even if the user correctly accounted for the zone append operations and issued the regular writes with a correct sector. Avoid these issues by immediately removing the zone write plug of zones that are the target of zone append operations when blk_zone_plug_bio() is called. The new function blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append() implements this for devices that natively support zone append. The removal of the zone write plug using disk_remove_zone_wplug() requires aborting all plugged regular write using disk_zone_wplug_abort() as otherwise the plugged write BIOs would never be executed (with the plug removed, the completion path will never see again the zone write plug as disk_get_zone_wplug() will return NULL). Rate-limited warnings are added to blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append() and to disk_zone_wplug_abort() to signal this. Since blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append() is called in the hot path for operations that will not be plugged, disk_get_zone_wplug() is optimized under the assumption that a user issuing zone append operations is not at the same time issuing regular writes and that there are no hashed zone write plugs. The struct gendisk atomic counter nr_zone_wplugs is added to check this, with this counter incremented in disk_insert_zone_wplug() and decremented in disk_remove_zone_wplug(). To be consistent with this fix, we do not need to fill the zone write plug hash table with zone write plugs for zones that are partially written for a device that supports native zone append operations.

commit a6aa36e957a1bfb5341986dec32d013d23228fe1 upstream.

For devices that natively support zone append operations,
REQ_OP_ZONE_APPEND BIOs are not processed through zone write plugging
and are immediately issued to the zoned device. This means that there is
no write pointer offset tracking done for these operations and that a
zone write plug is not necessary.

However, when receiving a zone append BIO, we may already have a zone
write plug for the target zone if that zone was previously partially
written using regular write operations. In such case, since the write
pointer offset of the zone write plug is not incremented by the amount
of sectors appended to the zone, 2 issues arise:
1) we risk leaving the plug in the disk hash table if the zone is fully
   written using zone append or regular write operations, because the
   write pointer offset will never reach the "zone full" state.
2) Regular write operations that are issued after zone append operations
   will always be failed by blk_zone_wplug_prepare_bio() as the write
   pointer alignment check will fail, even if the user correctly
   accounted for the zone append operations and issued the regular
   writes with a correct sector.

Avoid these issues by immediately removing the zone write plug of zones
that are the target of zone append operations when blk_zone_plug_bio()
is called. The new function blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append()
implements this for devices that natively support zone append. The
removal of the zone write plug using disk_remove_zone_wplug() requires
aborting all plugged regular write using disk_zone_wplug_abort() as
otherwise the plugged write BIOs would never be executed (with the plug
removed, the completion path will never see again the zone write plug as
disk_get_zone_wplug() will return NULL). Rate-limited warnings are added
to blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append() and to
disk_zone_wplug_abort() to signal this.

Since blk_zone_wplug_handle_native_zone_append() is called in the hot
path for operations that will not be plugged, disk_get_zone_wplug() is
optimized under the assumption that a user issuing zone append
operations is not at the same time issuing regular writes and that there
are no hashed zone write plugs. The struct gendisk atomic counter
nr_zone_wplugs is added to check this, with this counter incremented in

To be consistent with this fix, we do not need to fill the zone write
plug hash table with zone write plugs for zones that are partially
written for a device that supports native zone append operations.
So modify blk_revalidate_seq_zone() to return early to avoid allocating

block: fix queue freeze vs limits lock order in sysfs store methods 2025-02-08T09:00:55+00:00 Christoph Hellwig hch@lst.de 2025-01-10T05:47:14+00:00 8985da5481562e96b95e94ed8e5cc9b6565eb82b [ Upstream commit c99f66e4084a62a2cc401c4704a84328aeddc9ec ] queue_attr_store() always freezes a device queue before calling the attribute store operation. For attributes that control queue limits, the store operation will also lock the queue limits with a call to queue_limits_start_update().

[ Upstream commit c99f66e4084a62a2cc401c4704a84328aeddc9ec ]

queue_attr_store() always freezes a device queue before calling the
attribute store operation. For attributes that control queue limits, the
store operation will also lock the queue limits with a call to
queue_limits_start_update(). However, some drivers (e.g. SCSI sd) may
need to issue commands to a device to obtain limit values from the
hardware with the queue limits locked. This creates a potential ABBA
deadlock situation if a user attempts to modify a limit (thus freezing
the device queue) while the device driver starts a revalidation of the
device queue limits.

Avoid such deadlock by not freezing the queue before calling the
->store_limit() method in struct queue_sysfs_entry and instead use the
queue_limits_commit_update_frozen helper to freeze the queue after taking
the limits lock.

This also removes taking the sysfs lock for the store_limit method as
it doesn't protect anything here, but creates even more nesting.
Hopefully it will go away from the actual sysfs methods entirely soon.
