blktrace: Fix potential deadlock between delete & sysfs ops

2018-02-13T18:32:15+00:00

commit 5acb3cc2c2e9d3020a4fee43763c6463767f1572 upstream.

The lockdep code had reported the following unsafe locking scenario:

       CPU0                    CPU1
       ----                    ----
  lock(s_active#228);
                               lock(&bdev->bd_mutex/1);
                               lock(s_active#228);
  lock(&bdev->bd_mutex);

 *** DEADLOCK ***

The deadlock may happen when one task (CPU1) is trying to delete a
partition in a block device and another task (CPU0) is accessing
tracing sysfs file (e.g. /sys/block/dm-1/trace/act_mask) in that
partition.

The s_active isn't an actual lock. It is a reference count (kn->count)
on the sysfs (kernfs) file. Removal of a sysfs file, however, require
a wait until all the references are gone. The reference count is
treated like a rwsem using lockdep instrumentation code.

The fact that a thread is in the sysfs callback method or in the
ioctl call means there is a reference to the opended sysfs or device
file. That should prevent the underlying block structure from being
removed.

Instead of using bd_mutex in the block_device structure, a new
blk_trace_mutex is now added to the request_queue structure to protect
access to the blk_trace structure.

block: Relax a check in blk_start_queue()

2017-11-26T13:51:04+00:00

commit 4ddd56b003f251091a67c15ae3fe4a5c5c5e390a upstream.

Calling blk_start_queue() from interrupt context with the queue
lock held and without disabling IRQs, as the skd driver does, is
safe. This patch avoids that loading the skd driver triggers the
following warning:

WARNING: CPU: 11 PID: 1348 at block/blk-core.c:283 blk_start_queue+0x84/0xa0

sg_write()/bsg_write() is not fit to be called under KERNEL_DS

2017-02-23T03:51:06+00:00

commit a0ac402cfcdc904f9772e1762b3fda112dcc56a0 upstream.

Both damn things interpret userland pointers embedded into the payload;
worse, they are actually traversing those.  Leaving aside the bad
API design, this is very much _not_ safe to call with KERNEL_DS.
Bail out early if that happens.

This problem can occur in the following situation:

open()
 - pread()
    - .seq_start()
       - iter = kmalloc() // succeeds
       - seqf->private = iter
    - .seq_stop()
       - kfree(seqf->private)
 - pread()
    - .seq_start()
       - iter = kmalloc() // fails
    - .seq_stop()
       - class_dev_iter_exit(seqf->private) // boom! old pointer

As the comment in disk_seqf_stop() says, stop is called even if start
failed, so we need to reinitialise the private pointer to NULL when seq
iteration stops.

An alternative would be to set the private pointer to NULL when the
kmalloc() in disk_seqf_start() fails.

genhd: check for int overflow in disk_expand_part_tbl()

2015-02-20T00:49:25+00:00

commit 5fabcb4c33fe11c7e3afdf805fde26c1a54d0953 upstream.

We can get here from blkdev_ioctl() -> blkpg_ioctl() -> add_partition()
with a user passed in partno value. If we pass in 0x7fffffff, the
new target in disk_expand_part_tbl() overflows the 'int' and we
access beyond the end of ptbl->part[] and even write to it when we
do the rcu_assign_pointer() to assign the new partition.

scsi: Fix error handling in SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND

commit 84ce0f0e94ac97217398b3b69c21c7a62ebeed05 upstream.

When sg_scsi_ioctl() fails to prepare request to submit in
blk_rq_map_kern() we jump to a label where we just end up copying
(luckily zeroed-out) kernel buffer to userspace instead of reporting
error. Fix the problem by jumping to the right label.

block: fix alignment_offset math that assumes io_min is a power-of-2

2014-12-14T16:23:47+00:00

commit b8839b8c55f3fdd60dc36abcda7e0266aff7985c upstream.

The math in both blk_stack_limits() and queue_limit_alignment_offset()
assume that a block device's io_min (aka minimum_io_size) is always a
power-of-2.  Fix the math such that it works for non-power-of-2 io_min.

This issue (of alignment_offset != 0) became apparent when testing
dm-thinp with a thinp blocksize that matches a RAID6 stripesize of
1280K.  Commit fdfb4c8c1 ("dm thin: set minimum_io_size to pool's data
block size") unlocked the potential for alignment_offset != 0 due to
the dm-thin-pool's io_min possibly being a non-power-of-2.

commit 46f341ffcfb5d8530f7d1e60f3be06cce6661b62 upstream.

Commit 2da78092 changed the locking from a mutex to a spinlock,
so we now longer sleep in this context. But there was a leftover
might_sleep() in there, which now triggers since we do the final
free from an RCU callback. Get rid of it.

commit 2da78092dda13f1efd26edbbf99a567776913750 upstream.

Releases the dev_t minor when all references are closed to prevent
another device from acquiring the same major/minor.

Since the partition's release may be invoked from call_rcu's soft-irq
context, the ext_dev_idr's mutex had to be replaced with a spinlock so
as not so sleep.

block: don't assume last put of shared tags is for the host

2014-09-13T22:41:37+00:00

commit d45b3279a5a2252cafcd665bbf2db8c9b31ef783 upstream.

There is no inherent reason why the last put of a tag structure must be
the one for the Scsi_Host, as device model objects can be held for
arbitrary periods.  Merge blk_free_tags and __blk_free_tags into a single
funtion that just release a references and get rid of the BUG() when the
host reference wasn't the last.
