commit e3accac1a976e65491a9b9fba82ce8ddbd3d2389 upstream.

Commit 734e1a860312 ("block: Prevent deadlocks when switching
elevators") introduced the function elv_iosched_load_module() to allow
loading an elevator module outside of elv_iosched_store() with the
target device queue not frozen, to avoid deadlocks. However, the "none"
scheduler does not have a module and as a result,
elv_iosched_load_module() always returns an error when trying to switch
to this valid scheduler.

Fix this by ignoring the return value of the request_module() call
done by elv_iosched_load_module(). This restores the behavior before
commit 734e1a860312, which was to ignore the request_module() result and
instead rely on elevator_change() to handle the "none" scheduler case.

We check in submit_bio_noacct() if flag REQ_ATOMIC is set for both read and
write operations, and then validate the atomic operation if set. Flag
REQ_ATOMIC can only be set for writes, so don't bother checking for reads.

<title>block: fix potential invalid pointer dereference in blk_add_partition</title>

[ Upstream commit 26e197b7f9240a4ac301dd0ad520c0c697c2ea7d ]

The blk_add_partition() function initially used a single if-condition
(IS_ERR(part)) to check for errors when adding a partition. This was
modified to handle the specific case of -ENXIO separately, allowing the
function to proceed without logging the error in this case. However,
this change unintentionally left a path where md_autodetect_dev()
could be called without confirming that part is a valid pointer.

This commit separates the error handling logic by splitting the
initial if-condition, improving code readability and handling specific
error scenarios explicitly. The function now distinguishes the general
error case from -ENXIO without altering the existing behavior of
md_autodetect_dev() calls.

the bfqq can be freed after bfq_split_bfqq(). Hence recored the bfqq and
then access bfqq-&gt;waker_bfqq may trigger UAF. What's more, the waker_bfqq
may in the merge chain of bfqq, hence just recored waker_bfqq is still
not safe.

bfqq-&gt;waker_bfqq is in the merge chain, and current procress is the only
holder.

[ Upstream commit 42c306ed723321af4003b2a41bb73728cab54f85 ]

Consider the following scenario:

    Process 1       Process 2       Process 3       Process 4
     (BIC1)          (BIC2)          (BIC3)          (BIC4)

      bfqq1---------&gt;bfqq2----------&gt;bfqq3-----------&gt;bfqq4
ref    0              1               2                4

If Process 1 issue a new IO and bfqq2 is found, and then bfq_init_rq()
decide to spilt bfqq2 by bfq_split_bfqq(). Howerver, procress reference
of bfqq2 is 1 and bfq_split_bfqq() just clear the coop flag, which will
break the merge chain.

Expected result: caller will allocate a new bfqq for BIC1

[ Upstream commit 42c306ed723321af4003b2a41bb73728cab54f85 ]

Consider the following scenario:

    Process 1       Process 2       Process 3       Process 4
     (BIC1)          (BIC2)          (BIC3)          (BIC4)

ref    0              1               2                4

If Process 1 issue a new IO and bfqq2 is found, and then bfq_init_rq()
decide to spilt bfqq2 by bfq_split_bfqq(). Howerver, procress reference
of bfqq2 is 1 and bfq_split_bfqq() just clear the coop flag, which will
break the merge chain.

Expected result: caller will allocate a new bfqq for BIC1

    Process 1       Process 2       Process 3       Process 4
     (BIC1)          (BIC2)          (BIC3)          (BIC4)

<title>block, bfq: choose the last bfqq from merge chain in bfq_setup_cooperator()</title>

[ Upstream commit 0e456dba86c7f9a19792204a044835f1ca2c8dbb ]

Consider the following merge chain:

Process 1       Process 2       Process 3	Process 4
 (BIC1)          (BIC2)          (BIC3)		 (BIC4)
  Λ                |               |               |
   \--------------\ \-------------\ \-------------\|
                   V               V		   V
  bfqq1---------&gt;bfqq2----------&gt;bfqq3-----------&gt;bfqq4

IO from Process 1 will get bfqf2 from BIC1 first, then
bfq_setup_cooperator() will found bfqq2 already merged to bfqq3 and then
handle this IO from bfqq3. However, the merge chain can be much deeper
and bfqq3 can be merged to other bfqq as well.

Fix this problem by iterating to the last bfqq in
bfq_setup_cooperator().

[ Upstream commit 18ad4df091dd5d067d2faa8fce1180b79f7041a7 ]

1) initial state, three tasks:

		Process 1       Process 2	Process 3
		 (BIC1)          (BIC2)		 (BIC3)
		  |  Λ            |  Λ		  |  Λ
		  |  |            |  |		  |  |
		  V  |            V  |		  V  |
		  bfqq1           bfqq2		  bfqq3
process ref:	   1		    1		    1

2) bfqq1 merged to bfqq2:

		Process 1       Process 2	Process 3
		 (BIC1)          (BIC2)		 (BIC3)
		  |               |		  |  Λ
		  \--------------\|		  |  |
		                  V		  V  |
		  bfqq1---------&gt;bfqq2		  bfqq3
process ref:	   0		    2		    1

3) bfqq2 merged to bfqq3:

		Process 1       Process 2	Process 3
		 (BIC1)          (BIC2)		 (BIC3)
	 here -&gt; Λ                |		  |
		  \--------------\ \-------------\|
		                  V		  V
		  bfqq1---------&gt;bfqq2----------&gt;bfqq3
process ref:	   0		    1		    3

In this case, IO from Process 1 will get bfqq2 from BIC1 first, and then
get bfqq3 through merge chain, and finially handle IO by bfqq3.
Howerver, current code will think bfqq2 is owned by BIC1, like initial
state, and set bfqq2-&gt;bic to BIC1.

bfq_insert_request
-&gt; by Process 1
 bfqq = bfq_init_rq(rq)
  bfqq = bfq_get_bfqq_handle_split
   bfqq = bic_to_bfqq
   -&gt; get bfqq2 from BIC1
 bfqq-&gt;ref++
 rq-&gt;elv.priv[0] = bic
 rq-&gt;elv.priv[1] = bfqq
 if (bfqq_process_refs(bfqq) == 1)
  bfqq-&gt;bic = bic
  -&gt; record BIC1 to bfqq2

  __bfq_insert_request
   new_bfqq = bfq_setup_cooperator
   -&gt; get bfqq3 from bfqq2-&gt;new_bfqq
   bfqq_request_freed(bfqq)
   new_bfqq-&gt;ref++
   rq-&gt;elv.priv[1] = new_bfqq
   -&gt; handle IO by bfqq3

Fix the problem by checking bfqq is from merge chain fist. And this
might fix a following problem reported by our syzkaller(unreproducible):

process ref:	   0		    1		    3

In this case, IO from Process 1 will get bfqq2 from BIC1 first, and then
get bfqq3 through merge chain, and finially handle IO by bfqq3.
Howerver, current code will think bfqq2 is owned by BIC1, like initial
state, and set bfqq2-&gt;bic to BIC1.

bfq_insert_request
-&gt; by Process 1
 bfqq = bfq_init_rq(rq)
  bfqq = bfq_get_bfqq_handle_split
   bfqq = bic_to_bfqq
   -&gt; get bfqq2 from BIC1
 bfqq-&gt;ref++
 rq-&gt;elv.priv[0] = bic
 rq-&gt;elv.priv[1] = bfqq
 if (bfqq_process_refs(bfqq) == 1)
  bfqq-&gt;bic = bic
  -&gt; record BIC1 to bfqq2

  __bfq_insert_request
   new_bfqq = bfq_setup_cooperator
   -&gt; get bfqq3 from bfqq2-&gt;new_bfqq
   bfqq_request_freed(bfqq)
   new_bfqq-&gt;ref++
   rq-&gt;elv.priv[1] = new_bfqq
   -&gt; handle IO by bfqq3

Fix the problem by checking bfqq is from merge chain fist. And this
might fix a following problem reported by our syzkaller(unreproducible):

<title>block: Prevent deadlocks when switching elevators</title>

Commit af2814149883 ("block: freeze the queue in queue_attr_store")
changed queue_attr_store() to always freeze a sysfs attribute queue
before calling the attribute store() method, to ensure that no IOs are
in-flight when an attribute value is being updated.

However, this change created a potential deadlock situation for the
scheduler queue attribute as changing the queue elevator with
elv_iosched_store() can result in a call to request_module() if the user
requested module is not already registered. If the file of the requested
module is stored on the block device of the frozen queue, a deadlock
will happen as the read operations triggered by request_module() will
wait for the queue freeze to end.

Solve this issue by introducing the load_module method in struct
queue_sysfs_entry, and to calling this method function in
queue_attr_store() before freezing the attribute queue.
The macro definition QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY() is added to define a
queue sysfs attribute that needs loading a module.

The definition of the scheduler atrribute is changed to using
QUEUE_RW_LOAD_MODULE_ENTRY(), with the function
elv_iosched_load_module() defined as the load_module method.
elv_iosched_store() can then be simplified to remove the call to
request_module().

<title>bio-integrity: don't restrict the size of integrity metadata</title>

<content type='text'>
bio_integrity_add_page restricts the size of the integrity metadata to
queue_max_hw_sectors(q). This restriction is not needed because oversized
bios are split automatically. This restriction causes problems with
dm-integrity 'inline' mode - if we send a large bio to dm-integrity and
the bio's metadata are larger than queue_max_hw_sectors(q),
bio_integrity_add_page fails and the bio is ended with BLK_STS_RESOURCE
error.

An example that triggers it:
