commit 17ec4cd985780a7e30aa45bb8f272237c12502a4 upstream.

The use of idr_remove() is forbidden in the callback functions of
idr_for_each().  It is therefore unsafe to call idr_remove in
zram_remove().

This patch moves the call to idr_remove() from zram_remove() to
hot_remove_store().  In the detroy_devices() path, idrs are removed by
idr_destroy().  This solves an use-after-free detected by KASan.

<title>zram: try vmalloc() after kmalloc()</title>

commit d913897abace843bba20249f3190167f7895e9c3 upstream.

When we're using LZ4 multi compression streams for zram swap, we found
out page allocation failure message in system running test.  That was
not only once, but a few(2 - 5 times per test).  Also, some failure
cases were continually occurring to try allocation order 3.

In order to make parallel compression private data, we should call
kzalloc() with order 2/3 in runtime(lzo/lz4).  But if there is no order
2/3 size memory to allocate in that time, page allocation fails.  This
patch makes to use vmalloc() as fallback of kmalloc(), this prevents
page alloc failure warning.

After using this, we never found warning message in running test, also
It could reduce process startup latency about 60-120ms in each case.

For reference a call trace :

<title>rbd: don't put snap_context twice in rbd_queue_workfn()</title>

commit 70b16db86f564977df074072143284aec2cb1162 upstream.

Commit 4e752f0ab0e8 ("rbd: access snapshot context and mapping size
safely") moved ceph_get_snap_context() out of rbd_img_request_create()
and into rbd_queue_workfn(), adding a ceph_put_snap_context() to the
error path in rbd_queue_workfn().  However, rbd_img_request_create()
consumes a ref on snapc, so calling ceph_put_snap_context() after
a successful rbd_img_request_create() leads to an extra put.  Fix it.

<title>rbd: require stable pages if message data CRCs are enabled</title>

rbd requires stable pages, as it performs a crc of the page data before
they are send to the OSDs.

But since kernel 3.9 (patch 1d1d1a767206fbe5d4c69493b7e6d2a8d08cc0a0
"mm: only enforce stable page writes if the backing device requires
it") it is not assumed anymore that block devices require stable pages.

This patch sets the necessary flag to get stable pages back for rbd.

In a ceph installation that provides multiple ext4 formatted rbd
devices "bad crc" messages appeared regularly (ca 1 message every 1-2
minutes on every OSD that provided the data for the rbd) in the
OSD-logs before this patch. After this patch this messages are pretty
much gone (only ca 1-2 / month / OSD).

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A final set of fixes for 4.3.

  It is (again) bigger than I would have liked, but it's all been
  through the testing mill and has been carefully reviewed by multiple
  parties.  Each fix is either a regression fix for this cycle, or is
  marked stable.  You can scold me at KS.  The pull request contains:

   - Three simple fixes for NVMe, fixing regressions since 4.3.  From
     Arnd, Christoph, and Keith.

   - A single xen-blkfront fix from Cathy, fixing a NULL dereference if
     an error is returned through the staste change callback.

   - Fixup for some bad/sloppy code in nbd that got introduced earlier
     in this cycle.  From Markus Pargmann.

   - A blk-mq tagset use-after-free fix from Junichi.

   - A backing device lifetime fix from Tejun, fixing a crash.

   - And finally, a set of regression/stable fixes for cgroup writeback
     from Tejun"

* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block:
  writeback: remove broken rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe() usage in cgwb_bdi_destroy()
  NVMe: Fix memory leak on retried commands
  block: don't release bdi while request_queue has live references
  nvme: use an integer value to Linux errno values
  blk-mq: fix use-after-free in blk_mq_free_tag_set()
  nvme: fix 32-bit build warning
  writeback: fix incorrect calculation of available memory for memcg domains
  writeback: memcg dirty_throttle_control should be initialized with wb-&gt;memcg_completions
  writeback: bdi_writeback iteration must not skip dying ones
  writeback: fix bdi_writeback iteration in wakeup_dirtytime_writeback()
  writeback: laptop_mode_timer_fn() needs rcu_read_lock() around bdi_writeback iteration
  nbd: Add locking for tasks
  xen-blkfront: check for null drvdata in blkback_changed (XenbusStateClosing)

<title>rbd: prevent kernel stack blow up on rbd map</title>

Mapping an image with a long parent chain (e.g. image foo, whose parent
is bar, whose parent is baz, etc) currently leads to a kernel stack
overflow, due to the following recursion in the reply path:

  rbd_osd_req_callback()
    rbd_obj_request_complete()
      rbd_img_obj_callback()
        rbd_img_parent_read_callback()
          rbd_obj_request_complete()
            ...

Limit the parent chain to 16 images, which is ~5K worth of stack.  When
the above recursion is eliminated, this limit can be lifted.

Fixes: http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/12538

<title>rbd: don't leak parent_spec in rbd_dev_probe_parent()</title>

Currently we leak parent_spec and trigger a "parent reference
underflow" warning if rbd_dev_create() in rbd_dev_probe_parent() fails.
The problem is we take the !parent out_err branch and that only drops
refcounts; parent_spec that would've been freed had we called
rbd_dev_unparent() remains and triggers rbd_warn() in
rbd_dev_parent_put() - at that point we have parent_spec != NULL and
parent_ref == 0, so counter ends up being -1 after the decrement.

Redo rbd_dev_probe_parent() to fix this.

<title>rbd: use writefull op for object size writes</title>

<id>e30b7577bf1d338ca8a273bd2f881de5a41572b7</id>
<content type='text'>
This covers only the simplest case - an object size sized write, but
it's still useful in tiering setups when EC is used for the base tier
as writefull op can be proxied, saving an object promotion.

Even though updating ceph_osdc_new_request() to allow writefull should
just be a matter of fixing an assert, I didn't do it because its only
user is cephfs.  All other sites were updated.

Reflects ceph.git commit 7bfb7f9025a8ee0d2305f49bf0336d2424da5b5b.

Commit 30e2bc08b2bb ("Revert "block: remove artifical max_hw_sectors
cap"") restored a clamp on max_sectors.  It's now 2560 sectors instead
of 1024, but it's not good enough: we set max_hw_sectors to rbd object
size because we don't want object sized I/Os to be split, and the
default object size is 4M.

So, set max_sectors to max_hw_sectors in rbd at queue init time.
