commit d9cf3bd531844ffbfe94b16e417037a16efc988d upstream.

__bio_iov_append_get_pages() doesn't put not appended pages on
bio_add_hw_page() failure, so potentially leaking them, fix it. Also, do
the same for __bio_iov_iter_get_pages(), even though it looks like it
can't be triggered by userspace in this case.

[ Upstream commit 3edf5346e4f2ce2fa0c94651a90a8dda169565ee ]

For multiple split bios, if one of the bio is fail, the whole
should return error to application. But we found there is a race
between bio_integrity_verify_fn and bio complete, which return
io success to application after one of the bio fail. The race as
following:

split bio(READ)          kworker

nvme_complete_rq
blk_update_request //split error=0
  bio_endio
    bio_integrity_endio
      queue_work(kintegrityd_wq, &amp;bip-&gt;bip_work);

                         bio_integrity_verify_fn
                         bio_endio //split bio
                          __bio_chain_endio
                             if (!parent-&gt;bi_status)

                               &lt;interrupt entry&gt;
                               nvme_irq
                                 blk_update_request //parent error=7
                                 req_bio_endio
                                    bio-&gt;bi_status = 7 //parent bio
                               &lt;interrupt exit&gt;

                               parent-&gt;bi_status = 0
                        parent-&gt;bi_end_io() // return bi_status=0

The bio has been split as two: split and parent. When split
bio completed, it depends on kworker to do endio, while
bio_integrity_verify_fn have been interrupted by parent bio
complete irq handler. Then, parent bio-&gt;bi_status which have
been set in irq handler will overwrite by kworker.

In fact, even without the above race, we also need to conside
the concurrency beteen mulitple split bio complete and update
the same parent bi_status. Normally, multiple split bios will
be issued to the same hctx and complete from the same irq
vector. But if we have updated queue map between multiple split
bios, these bios may complete on different hw queue and different
irq vector. Then the concurrency update parent bi_status may
cause the final status error.

When the bio's size reaches max_append_sectors, bio_add_hw_page returns
0 then __bio_iov_append_get_pages returns -EINVAL. This is an expected
result of building a small enough bio not to be split in the IO path.
However, iov_iter is not advanced in this case, causing the same pages
are filled for the bio again and again.

Fix the case by properly advancing the iov_iter for already processed
pages.

Using "@bio's parent" causes the following waring:
	./block/bio.c:10: WARNING: Inline emphasis start-string without end-string.

The main problem here is that this would be converted into:

	**bio**'s parent

By kernel-doc, which is not a valid notation. It would be
possible to use, instead, this kernel-doc markup:

	``bio's`` parent

Yet, here, is probably simpler to just use an altenative language:

bio_crypt_clone() assumes its gfp_mask argument always includes
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM, so that the mempool_alloc() will always succeed.

However, bio_crypt_clone() might be called with GFP_ATOMIC via
setup_clone() in drivers/md/dm-rq.c, or with GFP_NOWAIT via
kcryptd_io_read() in drivers/md/dm-crypt.c.

Neither case is currently reachable with a bio that actually has an
encryption context.  However, it's fragile to rely on this.  Just make
bio_crypt_clone() able to fail, analogous to bio_integrity_clone().

If we hit the UINT_MAX limit of bio-&gt;bi_iter.bi_size and so we are anyway
not merging this page in this bio, then it make sense to make same_page
also as false before returning.

Without this patch, we hit below WARNING in iomap.
This mostly happens with very large memory system and / or after tweaking
vm dirty threshold params to delay writeback of dirty data.

<title>block: Fix page_is_mergeable() for compound pages</title>

If we pass in an offset which is larger than PAGE_SIZE, then
page_is_mergeable() thinks it's not mergeable with the previous bio_vec,
leading to a large number of bio_vecs being used.  Use a slightly more
obvious test that the two pages are compatible with each other.

Fixes: 52d52d1c98a9 ("block: only allow contiguous page structs in a bio_vec")
