commit 80e648042e512d5a767da251d44132553fe04ae0 upstream.

Fix several issues in partition probing:

 - The bailout for a bad partoffset must use put_dev_sector(), since the
   preceding read_part_sector() succeeded.
 - If the partition table claims a silly sector size like 0xfff bytes
   (which results in partition table entries straddling sector boundaries),
   bail out instead of accessing out-of-bounds memory.
 - We must not assume that the partition table contains proper NUL
   termination - use strnlen() and strncmp() instead of strlen() and
   strcmp().

commit b13ee668e8280ca5b07f8ce2846b9957a8a10853 upstream.

blkdev_read_iter() has a few odd checks, like gating the position and
count adjustment on whether or not the result is bigger-than-or-equal to
zero (where bigger than makes more sense), and not checking the return
value of blkdev_direct_IO() before doing an iov_iter_revert(). The
latter can lead to attempting to revert with a negative value, which
when passed to iov_iter_revert() as an unsigned value will lead to
throwing a WARN_ON() because unroll is bigger than MAX_RW_COUNT.

Be sane and don't revert for -EIOCBQUEUED, like what is done in other
spots.

commit d1248436cbef1f924c04255367ff4845ccd9025e upstream.

blkcg_fill_root_iostats() iterates over @block_class's devices by
class_dev_iter_(init|next)(), but does not end iterating with
class_dev_iter_exit(), so causes the class's subsystem refcount leakage.

Fix by ending the iterating with class_dev_iter_exit().

sysfs -&gt;store is called with queue freezed, meantime we have several

memory with GFP_KERNEL which may run into direct reclaim code path,
then potential deadlock can be caused.

For stacking atomic writes, ensure that the start sector is aligned with
the device atomic write unit min and any boundary. Otherwise, we may
permit misaligned atomic writes.

Rework bdev_can_atomic_write() into a common helper to resuse the
alignment check. There also use atomic_write_hw_unit_min, which is more
proper (than atomic_write_unit_min).

<title>block: fix queue freeze vs limits lock order in sysfs store methods</title>

[ Upstream commit c99f66e4084a62a2cc401c4704a84328aeddc9ec ]

queue_attr_store() always freezes a device queue before calling the
attribute store operation. For attributes that control queue limits, the
store operation will also lock the queue limits with a call to
queue_limits_start_update(). However, some drivers (e.g. SCSI sd) may
need to issue commands to a device to obtain limit values from the
hardware with the queue limits locked. This creates a potential ABBA
deadlock situation if a user attempts to modify a limit (thus freezing
the device queue) while the device driver starts a revalidation of the
device queue limits.

Avoid such deadlock by not freezing the queue before calling the
-&gt;store_limit() method in struct queue_sysfs_entry and instead use the
queue_limits_commit_update_frozen helper to freeze the queue after taking
the limits lock.

This also removes taking the sysfs lock for the store_limit method as
it doesn't protect anything here, but creates even more nesting.
Hopefully it will go away from the actual sysfs methods entirely soon.

[ Upstream commit a16230649ce27f8ac7dd8a5b079d9657aa96de16 ]

De-duplicate the code for updating queue limits by adding a store_limit
method that allows having common code handle the actual queue limits
update.

Note that this is a pure refactoring patch and does not address the
existing freeze vs limits lock order problem in the refactored code,
which will be addressed next.

[ Upstream commit a16230649ce27f8ac7dd8a5b079d9657aa96de16 ]

De-duplicate the code for updating queue limits by adding a store_limit
method that allows having common code handle the actual queue limits
update.

Note that this is a pure refactoring patch and does not address the
existing freeze vs limits lock order problem in the refactored code,
which will be addressed next.

[ Upstream commit aa427d7b73b196f657d6d2cf0e94eff6b883fdef ]

Add a helper that freezes the queue, updates the queue limits and
unfreezes the queue and convert all open coded versions of that to the
new helper.

<title>block: don't update BLK_FEAT_POLL in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues</title>

[ Upstream commit d432c817c21a48c3baaa0d28e4d3e74b6aa238a0 ]

When __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues changes the number of tag sets, it
might have to disable poll queues.  Currently it does so by adjusting
the BLK_FEAT_POLL, which is a bit against the intent of features that
describe hardware / driver capabilities, but more importantly causes
nasty lock order problems with the broadly held freeze when updating the
number of hardware queues and the limits lock.  Fix this by leaving
BLK_FEAT_POLL alone, and instead check for the number of poll queues in
the bio submission and poll handlers.  While this adds extra work to the
fast path, the variables are in cache lines used by these operations
anyway, so it should be cheap enough.

Fixes: 8023e144f9d6 ("block: move the poll flag to queue_limits")
