commit b4c5875d36178e8df409bdce232f270cac89fafe upstream.

To allow the SCSI subsystem scsi_execute_req() function to issue
requests using large buffers that are better allocated with vmalloc()
rather than kmalloc(), modify bio_map_kern() to allow passing a buffer
allocated with vmalloc().

To do so, detect vmalloc-ed buffers using is_vmalloc_addr(). For
vmalloc-ed buffers, flush the buffer using flush_kernel_vmap_range(),
use vmalloc_to_page() instead of virt_to_page() to obtain the pages of
the buffer, and invalidate the buffer addresses with
invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() on completion of read BIOs. This last
point is executed using the function bio_invalidate_vmalloc_pages()
which is defined only if the architecture defines
ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_KERNEL_DCACHE_PAGE, that is, if the architecture
actually needs the invalidation done.

Fixes: 515ce6061312 ("scsi: sd_zbc: Fix sd_zbc_report_zones() buffer allocation")
Fixes: e76239a3748c ("block: add a report_zones method")

<title>block: fix .bi_size overflow</title>

commit 79d08f89bb1b5c2c1ff90d9bb95497ab9e8aa7e0 upstream.

'bio-&gt;bi_iter.bi_size' is 'unsigned int', which at most hold 4G - 1
bytes.

Before 07173c3ec276 ("block: enable multipage bvecs"), one bio can
include very limited pages, and usually at most 256, so the fs bio
size won't be bigger than 1M bytes most of times.

Since we support multi-page bvec, in theory one fs bio really can
be added &gt; 1M pages, especially in case of hugepage, or big writeback
with too many dirty pages. Then there is chance in which .bi_size
is overflowed.

Fixes this issue by using bio_full() to check if the added segment may
overflow .bi_size.

When multiple iovecs reference the same page, each get_user_page call
will add a reference to the page.  But once we've created the bio that
information gets lost and only a single reference will be dropped after
I/O completion.  Use the same_page information returned from
__bio_try_merge_page to drop additional references to pages that were
already present in the bio.

Based on a patch from Ming Lei.

We currently have an input same_page parameter to __bio_try_merge_page
to prohibit merging in the same page.  The rationale for that is that
some callers need to account for every page added to a bio.  Instead of
letting these callers call twice into the merge code to account for the
new vs existing page cases, just turn the paramter into an output one that
returns if a merge in the same page occured and let them act accordingly.
