commit e8007fad5457ea547ca63bb011fdb03213571c7e upstream.

The REPORT ZONES buffer size is currently limited by the HBA's maximum
segment count to ensure the buffer can be mapped. However, the block
layer further limits the number of iovec entries to 1024 when allocating
a bio.

To avoid allocation of buffers too large to be mapped, further restrict
the maximum buffer size to BIO_MAX_INLINE_VECS.

Replace the UIO_MAXIOV symbolic name with the more contextually
appropriate BIO_MAX_INLINE_VECS.

[ Upstream commit 40f2eb9b531475dd01b683fdaf61ca3cfd03a51e ]

When registering a queue fails after blk_mq_sysfs_register() is
successful but the function later encounters an error, we need
to clean up the blk_mq_sysfs resources.

Add the missing blk_mq_sysfs_unregister() call in the error path
to properly clean up these resources and prevent a memory leak.

<title>block: fix conversion of GPT partition name to 7-bit</title>

<content type='text'>
commit e06472bab2a5393430cc2fbc3211cd3602422c1e upstream.

The utf16_le_to_7bit function claims to, naively, convert a UTF-16
string to a 7-bit ASCII string. By naively, we mean that it:
 * drops the first byte of every character in the original UTF-16 string
 * checks if all characters are printable, and otherwise replaces them
   by exclamation mark "!".

This means that theoretically, all characters outside the 7-bit ASCII
range should be replaced by another character. Examples:

 * lower-case alpha (ɒ) 0x0252 becomes 0x52 (R)
 * ligature OE (œ) 0x0153 becomes 0x53 (S)
 * hangul letter pieup (ㅂ) 0x3142 becomes 0x42 (B)
 * upper-case gamma (Ɣ) 0x0194 becomes 0x94 (not printable) so gets
   replaced by "!"

The result of this conversion for the GPT partition name is passed to
user-space as PARTNAME via udev, which is confusing and feels questionable.

However, there is a flaw in the conversion function itself. By dropping
one byte of each character and using isprint() to check if the remaining
byte corresponds to a printable character, we do not actually guarantee
that the resulting character is 7-bit ASCII.

This happens because we pass 8-bit characters to isprint(), which
in the kernel returns 1 for many values &gt; 0x7f - as defined in ctype.c.

This results in many values which should be replaced by "!" to be kept
as-is, despite not being valid 7-bit ASCII. Examples:

 * e with acute accent (é) 0x00E9 becomes 0xE9 - kept as-is because
   isprint(0xE9) returns 1.
 * euro sign (€) 0x20AC becomes 0xAC - kept as-is because isprint(0xAC)
   returns 1.

This way has broken pyudev utility[1], fixes it by using a mask of 7 bits
instead of 8 bits before calling isprint.

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().

[ Upstream commit 457ef47c08d2979f3e59ce66267485c3faed70c8 ]

Set kernel config:

 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=m
 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP_MIN_COUNT=0

Do latter:

 mknod loop0 b 7 0
 exec 4&lt;&gt; loop0

Before commit e418de3abcda ("block: switch gendisk lookup to a simple
xarray"), lookup_gendisk will first use base_probe to load module loop,
and then the retry will call loop_probe to prepare the loop disk. Finally
open for this disk will success. However, after this commit, we lose the
retry logic, and open will fail with ENXIO. Block device autoloading is
deprecated and will be removed soon, but maybe we should keep open success
until we really remove it. So, give a retry to fix it.

commit 697ba0b6ec4ae04afb67d3911799b5e2043b4455 upstream.

I independently rediscovered

	commit 22d24a544b0d49bbcbd61c8c0eaf77d3c9297155
	block: fix overflow in blk_ioctl_discard()

but for secure erase.

Same problem:

	uint64_t r[2] = {512, 18446744073709551104ULL};
	ioctl(fd, BLKSECDISCARD, r);

will enter near infinite loop inside blkdev_issue_secure_erase():

	a.out: attempt to access beyond end of device
	loop0: rw=5, sector=3399043073, nr_sectors = 1024 limit=2048
	bio_check_eod: 3286214 callbacks suppressed
