[ Upstream commit 15729ff8143f8135b03988a100a19e66d7cb7ecd ]

A crash [1] happened to be triggered in conjunction with commit
2d52c58b9c9b ("block, bfq: honor already-setup queue merges"). The
latter was then reverted by commit ebc69e897e17 ("Revert "block, bfq:
honor already-setup queue merges""). Yet, the reverted commit was not
the one introducing the bug. In fact, it actually triggered a UAF
introduced by a different commit, and now fixed by commit d29bd41428cf
("block, bfq: reset last_bfqq_created on group change").

So, there is no point in keeping commit 2d52c58b9c9b ("block, bfq:
honor already-setup queue merges") out. This commit restores it.

[69832.377405] ==================================================================

In bfq_dispatch_requestfunction, it may have function call:

bfq_dispatch_request
	__bfq_dispatch_request
		bfq_select_queue
			bfq_bfqq_expire
				__bfq_bfqd_reset_in_service
					bfq_put_queue
						kmem_cache_free
In this function call, in_serv_queue has beed expired and meet the
conditions to free. In the function bfq_dispatch_request, the address
of in_serv_queue pointing to has been released. For getting the value
of idle_timer_disabled, it will get flags value from the address which
in_serv_queue pointing to, then the problem of use-after-free happens;

Fix the problem by check in_serv_queue == bfqd-&gt;in_service_queue, to
get the value of idle_timer_disabled if in_serve_queue is equel to
bfqd-&gt;in_service_queue. If the space of in_serv_queue pointing has
been released, this judge will aviod use-after-free problem.
And if in_serv_queue may be expired or finished, the idle_timer_disabled
will be false which would not give effects to bfq_update_dispatch_stats.

In bfq_dispatch_requestfunction, it may have function call:

bfq_dispatch_request
	__bfq_dispatch_request
		bfq_select_queue
			bfq_bfqq_expire
				__bfq_bfqd_reset_in_service
					bfq_put_queue
						kmem_cache_free
In this function call, in_serv_queue has beed expired and meet the
conditions to free. In the function bfq_dispatch_request, the address
of in_serv_queue pointing to has been released. For getting the value
of idle_timer_disabled, it will get flags value from the address which
in_serv_queue pointing to, then the problem of use-after-free happens;

Fix the problem by check in_serv_queue == bfqd-&gt;in_service_queue, to
get the value of idle_timer_disabled if in_serve_queue is equel to
bfqd-&gt;in_service_queue. If the space of in_serv_queue pointing has
been released, this judge will aviod use-after-free problem.
And if in_serv_queue may be expired or finished, the idle_timer_disabled
will be false which would not give effects to bfq_update_dispatch_stats.

[ Upstream commit 0f69288253e9fc7c495047720e523b9f1aba5712 ]

kobjects aren't supposed to be deleted before their child kobjects are
deleted.  Apparently this is usually benign; however, a WARN will be
triggered if one of the child kobjects has a named attribute group:

    sysfs group 'modes' not found for kobject 'crypto'

Fix this by moving the kobject_del() and the corresponding

commit 6b2b04590b51aa4cf395fcd185ce439cab5961dc upstream.

blk-iocost and iolatency are cgroup aware rq-qos policies but they didn't
disable merges across different cgroups. This obviously can lead to
accounting and control errors but more importantly to priority inversions -
e.g. an IO which belongs to a higher priority cgroup or IO class may end up
getting throttled incorrectly because it gets merged to an IO issued from a
low priority cgroup.

Fix it by adding blk_cgroup_mergeable() which is called from merge paths and
rejects cross-cgroup and cross-issue_as_root merges.

commit e92bc4cd34de2ce454bdea8cd198b8067ee4e123 upstream.

Now that we disable wbt by set WBT_STATE_OFF_DEFAULT in
wbt_disable_default() when switch elevator to bfq. And when
we remove scsi device, wbt will be enabled by wbt_enable_default.
If it become false positive between wbt_wait() and wbt_track()
when submit write request.

The following is the scenario that triggered the problem.

commit e92bc4cd34de2ce454bdea8cd198b8067ee4e123 upstream.

Now that we disable wbt by set WBT_STATE_OFF_DEFAULT in
wbt_disable_default() when switch elevator to bfq. And when
we remove scsi device, wbt will be enabled by wbt_enable_default.
If it become false positive between wbt_wait() and wbt_track()
when submit write request.

The following is the scenario that triggered the problem.

commit b13e0c71856817fca67159b11abac350e41289f5 upstream.

Commit 309a62fa3a9e ("bio-integrity: bio_integrity_advance must update
integrity seed") added code to update the integrity seed value when
advancing a bio. However, it failed to take into account that the
integrity interval might be larger than the 512-byte block layer
sector size. This broke bio splitting on PI devices with 4KB logical
blocks.

The seed value should be advanced by bio_integrity_intervals() and not
the number of sectors.

<title>block, bfq: fix use after free in bfq_bfqq_expire</title>

commit eed47d19d9362bdd958e4ab56af480b9dbf6b2b6 upstream.

The function bfq_bfqq_expire() invokes the function
__bfq_bfqq_expire(), and the latter may free the in-service bfq-queue.
If this happens, then no other instruction of bfq_bfqq_expire() must
be executed, or a use-after-free will occur.

Basing on the assumption that __bfq_bfqq_expire() invokes
bfq_put_queue() on the in-service bfq-queue exactly once, the queue is
assumed to be freed if its refcounter is equal to one right before
invoking __bfq_bfqq_expire().

But, since commit 9dee8b3b057e ("block, bfq: fix queue removal from
weights tree") this assumption is false. __bfq_bfqq_expire() may also
invoke bfq_weights_tree_remove() and, since commit 9dee8b3b057e
("block, bfq: fix queue removal from weights tree"), also
the latter function may invoke bfq_put_queue(). So __bfq_bfqq_expire()
may invoke bfq_put_queue() twice, and this is the actual case where
the in-service queue may happen to be freed.

To address this issue, this commit moves the check on the refcounter
of the queue right around the last bfq_put_queue() that may be invoked
on the queue.

commit 9dee8b3b057e1da26f85f1842f2aaf3bb200fb94 upstream.

bfq maintains an ordered list, through a red-black tree, of unique
weights of active bfq_queues. This list is used to detect whether there
are active queues with differentiated weights. The weight of a queue is
removed from the list when both the following two conditions become
true:

(1) the bfq_queue is flagged as inactive
(2) the has no in-flight request any longer;

Unfortunately, in the rare cases where condition (2) becomes true before
condition (1), the removal fails, because the function to remove the
weight of the queue (bfq_weights_tree_remove) is rightly invoked in the
path that deactivates the bfq_queue, but mistakenly invoked *before* the
function that actually performs the deactivation (bfq_deactivate_bfqq).

This commits moves the invocation of bfq_weights_tree_remove for
condition (1) to after bfq_deactivate_bfqq. As a consequence of this
move, it is necessary to add a further reference to the queue when the
weight of a queue is added, because the queue might otherwise be freed
before bfq_weights_tree_remove is invoked. This commit adds this
reference and makes all related modifications.

<title>block, bfq: fix decrement of num_active_groups</title>

commit ba7aeae5539c7a7cccc4cf07a2bc61281a93c50e upstream.

Since commit '2d29c9f89fcd ("block, bfq: improve asymmetric scenarios
detection")', if there are process groups with I/O requests waiting for
completion, then BFQ tags the scenario as 'asymmetric'. This detection
is needed for preserving service guarantees (for details, see comments
on the computation * of the variable asymmetric_scenario in the
function bfq_better_to_idle).

Unfortunately, commit '2d29c9f89fcd ("block, bfq: improve asymmetric
scenarios detection")' contains an error exactly in the updating of
the number of groups with I/O requests waiting for completion: if a
group has more than one descendant process, then the above number of
groups, which is renamed from num_active_groups to a more appropriate
num_groups_with_pending_reqs by this commit, may happen to be wrongly
decremented multiple times, namely every time one of the descendant
processes gets all its pending I/O requests completed.

A correct, complete solution should work as follows. Consider a group
that is inactive, i.e., that has no descendant process with pending
I/O inside BFQ queues. Then suppose that num_groups_with_pending_reqs
is still accounting for this group, because the group still has some
descendant process with some I/O request still in
flight. num_groups_with_pending_reqs should be decremented when the
in-flight request of the last descendant process is finally completed
(assuming that nothing else has changed for the group in the meantime,
in terms of composition of the group and active/inactive state of
child groups and processes). To accomplish this, an additional
pending-request counter must be added to entities, and must be
updated correctly.

To avoid this additional field and operations, this commit resorts to
the following tradeoff between simplicity and accuracy: for an
inactive group that is still counted in num_groups_with_pending_reqs,
this commit decrements num_groups_with_pending_reqs when the first
descendant process of the group remains with no request waiting for
completion.

This simplified scheme provides a fix to the unbalanced decrements
introduced by 2d29c9f89fcd. Since this error was also caused by lack
of comments on this non-trivial issue, this commit also adds related
comments.
