aoe: clean device rq_list in aoedev_downdev()

2025-06-27T10:04:22+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7f90d45e57cb2ef1f0adcaf925ddffdfc5e680ca ]

An aoe device's rq_list contains accepted block requests that are
waiting to be transmitted to the aoe target. This queue was added as
part of the conversion to blk_mq. However, the queue was not cleaned out
when an aoe device is downed which caused blk_mq_freeze_queue() to sleep
indefinitely waiting for those requests to complete, causing a hang. This
fix cleans out the queue before calling blk_mq_freeze_queue().

aoe: fix the potential use-after-free problem in more places

2024-10-17T13:08:23+00:00

commit 6d6e54fc71ad1ab0a87047fd9c211e75d86084a3 upstream.

For fixing CVE-2023-6270, f98364e92662 ("aoe: fix the potential
use-after-free problem in aoecmd_cfg_pkts") makes tx() calling dev_put()
instead of doing in aoecmd_cfg_pkts(). It avoids that the tx() runs
into use-after-free.

Then Nicolai Stange found more places in aoe have potential use-after-free
problem with tx(). e.g. revalidate(), aoecmd_ata_rw(), resend(), probe()
and aoecmd_cfg_rsp(). Those functions also use aoenet_xmit() to push
packet to tx queue. So they should also use dev_hold() to increase the
refcnt of skb->dev.

On the other hand, moving dev_put() to tx() causes that the refcnt of
skb->dev be reduced to a negative value, because corresponding
dev_hold() are not called in revalidate(), aoecmd_ata_rw(), resend(),
probe(), and aoecmd_cfg_rsp(). This patch fixed this issue.

aoe: fix the potential use-after-free problem in aoecmd_cfg_pkts

2024-03-26T22:21:48+00:00

[ Upstream commit f98364e926626c678fb4b9004b75cacf92ff0662 ]

This patch is against CVE-2023-6270. The description of cve is:

  A flaw was found in the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver in the Linux
  kernel. The aoecmd_cfg_pkts() function improperly updates the refcnt on
  `struct net_device`, and a use-after-free can be triggered by racing
  between the free on the struct and the access through the `skbtxq`
  global queue. This could lead to a denial of service condition or
  potential code execution.

In aoecmd_cfg_pkts(), it always calls dev_put(ifp) when skb initial
code is finished. But the net_device ifp will still be used in
later tx()->dev_queue_xmit() in kthread. Which means that the
dev_put(ifp) should NOT be called in the success path of skb
initial code in aoecmd_cfg_pkts(). Otherwise tx() may run into
use-after-free because the net_device is freed.

This patch removed the dev_put(ifp) in the success path in
aoecmd_cfg_pkts(), and added dev_put() after skb xmit in tx().

block: lift setting the readahead size into the block layer

2020-09-24T19:43:39+00:00

Drivers shouldn't really mess with the readahead size, as that is a VM
concept.  Instead set it based on the optimal I/O size by lifting the
algorithm from the md driver when registering the disk.  Also set
bdi->io_pages there as well by applying the same scheme based on
max_sectors.  To ensure the limits work well for stacking drivers a
new helper is added to update the readahead limits from the block
limits, which is also called from disk_stack_limits.

aoe: set an optimal I/O size

2020-09-24T19:43:38+00:00

aoe forces a larger readahead size, but any reason to do larger I/O
is not limited to readahead.  Also set the optimal I/O size, and
remove the local constants in favor of just using SZ_2G.

block: fix locking for struct block_device size updates

2020-09-01T22:49:25+00:00

Two different callers use two different mutexes for updating the
block device size, which obviously doesn't help to actually protect
against concurrent updates from the different callers.  In addition
one of the locks, bd_mutex is rather prone to deadlocks with other
parts of the block stack that use it for high level synchronization.

Switch to using a new spinlock protecting just the size updates, as
that is all we need, and make sure everyone does the update through
the proper helper.

This fixes a bug reported with the nvme revalidating disks during a
hot removal operation, which can currently deadlock on bd_mutex.

compat_ioctl: ubd, aoe: use blkdev_compat_ptr_ioctl

2020-01-03T08:33:02+00:00

These drivers implement the HDIO_GET_IDENTITY and CDROMVOLREAD ioctl
commands, which are compatible between 32-bit and 64-bit user space and
traditionally handled by compat_blkdev_driver_ioctl().

As a prerequisite to removing that function, make both drivers use
blkdev_compat_ptr_ioctl() as their .compat_ioctl callback.
