commit 69e0927b3774563c19b5fb32e91d75edc147fb62 upstream.

During stress tests by syzkaller on the sg driver the block layer
infrequently returns EINVAL. Closer inspection shows the block
layer was trying to return ENOMEM (which is much more
understandable) but for some reason overroad that useful error.

Patch below does not show this (unchanged) line:
   ret =__blk_rq_map_user_iov(rq, map_data, &amp;i, gfp_mask, copy);
That 'ret' was being overridden when that function failed.

commit 5235553d821433e1f4fa720fd025d2c4b7ee9994 upstream.

Mikulas reported a workload that saw bad performance, and figured
out what it was due to various other types of requests being
accounted as reads. Flush requests, for instance. Due to the
high latency of those, we heavily throttle the writes to keep
the latencies in balance. But they really should be accounted
as writes.

Fix this by checking the exact type of the request. If it's a
read, account as a read, if it's a write or a flush, account
as a write. Any other request we disregard. Previously everything
would have been mistakenly accounted as reads.

commit c2856ae2f315d754a0b6a268e4c6745b332b42e7 upstream.

After queue is frozen, dispatch still may happen, for example:

1) requests are submitted from several contexts
2) requests from all these contexts are inserted to queue, but may dispatch
to LLD in one of these paths, but other paths sill need to move on even all
these requests are completed(that means blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait() returns
at that time)
3) dispatch after queue freezing still moves on and causes use-after-free,
because request queue is freed

This patch quiesces queue after it is frozen, and makes sure all
in-progress dispatch are completed.

This patch fixes the following kernel crash when running heavy IOs vs.

Now we track legacy requests with .q_usage_counter in commit 055f6e18e08f
("block: Make q_usage_counter also track legacy requests"), but that
commit never runs and drains legacy queue before waiting for this counter
becoming zero, then IO hang is caused in the test of pulling disk during IO.

This patch fixes the issue by draining requests before waiting for
q_usage_counter becoming zero, both Mauricio and chenxiang reported this
issue, and observed that it can be fixed by this patch.

<title>block-throttle: avoid double charge</title>

If a bio is throttled and split after throttling, the bio could be
resubmited and enters the throttling again. This will cause part of the
bio to be charged multiple times. If the cgroup has an IO limit, the
double charge will significantly harm the performance. The bio split
becomes quite common after arbitrary bio size change.

To fix this, we always set the BIO_THROTTLED flag if a bio is throttled.
If the bio is cloned/split, we copy the flag to new bio too to avoid a
double charge. However, cloned bio could be directed to a new disk,
keeping the flag be a problem. The observation is we always set new disk
for the bio in this case, so we can clear the flag in bio_set_dev().

This issue exists for a long time, arbitrary bio size change just makes
it worse, so this should go into stable at least since v4.2.

V1-&gt; V2: Not add extra field in bio based on discussion with Tejun

Commit caa4b02476e3(blk-map: call blk_queue_bounce from blk_rq_append_bio)
moves blk_queue_bounce() into blk_rq_append_bio(), but don't consider
the fact that the bounced bio becomes invisible to caller since the
parameter type is 'struct bio *'. Make it a pointer to a pointer to
a bio, so the caller sees the right bio also after a bounce.

<title>block: don't let passthrough IO go into .make_request_fn()</title>

Commit a8821f3f3("block: Improvements to bounce-buffer handling") tries
to make sure that the bio to .make_request_fn won't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES,
but ignores that passthrough I/O can use blk_queue_bounce() too.
Especially, passthrough IO may not be sector-aligned, and the check
of 'sectors &lt; bio_sectors(*bio_orig)' inside __blk_queue_bounce() may
become true even though the max bvec number doesn't exceed BIO_MAX_PAGES,
then cause the bio splitted, and the original passthrough bio is submited
to generic_make_request().

This patch fixes this issue by checking if the bio is passthrough IO,
and use bio_kmalloc() to allocate the cloned passthrough bio.

<title>kyber: fix another domain token wait queue hang</title>

<content type='text'>
Commit 8cf466602028 ("kyber: fix hang on domain token wait queue") fixed
a hang caused by leaving wait entries on the domain token wait queue
after the __sbitmap_queue_get() retry succeeded, making that wait entry
a "dud" which won't in turn wake more entries up. However, we can also
get a dud entry if kyber_get_domain_token() fails once but is then
called again and succeeds. This can happen if the hardware queue is
rerun for some other reason, or, more likely, kyber_dispatch_request()
tries the same domain twice.

The fix is to remove our entry from the wait queue whenever we
successfully get a token. The only complication is that we might be on
one of many wait queues in the struct sbitmap_queue, but that's easily
fixed by remembering which wait queue we were put on.

While we're here, only initialize the wait queue entry once instead of
on every wait, and use spin_lock_irq() instead of spin_lock_irqsave(),
since this is always called from process context with irqs enabled.
