commit bd504bcfec41a503b32054da5472904b404341a4 upstream.

The kvmalloc function fails with a warning if the size is larger than
INT_MAX. The warning was triggered by a syscall testing robot.

In order to avoid the warning, this commit limits the number of targets to
1048576 and the size of the parameter area to 1073741824.

<title>treewide: Remove uninitialized_var() usage</title>

commit 3f649ab728cda8038259d8f14492fe400fbab911 upstream.

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.

In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:

git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
	xargs perl -pi -e \
		's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;
		 s:\s*/\* (GCC be quiet|to make compiler happy) \*/$::g;'

drivers/video/fbdev/riva/riva_hw.c was manually tweaked to avoid
pathological white-space.

No outstanding warnings were found building allmodconfig with GCC 9.3.0
for x86_64, i386, arm64, arm, powerpc, powerpc64le, s390x, mips, sparc64,
alpha, and m68k.

commit 24f6b6036c9eec21191646930ad42808e6180510 upstream.

Fix dm_table_supports_zoned_model() and invert logic of both
iterate_devices_callout_fn so that all devices' zoned capabilities are
properly checked.

Add one more parameter to dm_table_any_dev_attr(), which is actually
used as the @data parameter of iterate_devices_callout_fn, so that
dm_table_matches_zone_sectors() can be replaced by
dm_table_any_dev_attr().

commit a4c8dd9c2d0987cf542a2a0c42684c9c6d78a04e upstream.

According to the definition of dm_iterate_devices_fn:
 * This function must iterate through each section of device used by the
 * target until it encounters a non-zero return code, which it then returns.
 * Returns zero if no callout returned non-zero.

For some target type (e.g. dm-stripe), one call of iterate_devices() may
iterate multiple underlying devices internally, in which case a non-zero
return code returned by iterate_devices_callout_fn will stop the iteration
in advance. No iterate_devices_callout_fn should return non-zero unless
device iteration should stop.

Rename dm_table_requires_stable_pages() to dm_table_any_dev_attr() and
elevate it for reuse to stop iterating (and return non-zero) on the
first device that causes iterate_devices_callout_fn to return non-zero.
Use dm_table_any_dev_attr() to properly iterate through devices.

Rename device_is_nonrot() to device_is_rotational() and invert logic
accordingly to fix improper disposition.

[jeffle: backport notes]
Also convert the no_sg_merge capability check, which is introduced by
commit 200612ec33e5 ("dm table: propagate QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE"), and
removed since commit 2705c93742e9 ("block: kill QUEUE_FLAG_NO_SG_MERGE")
in v5.1.

Also convert the partial completion capability check, which is
introduced by commit 22c11858e800 ("dm: introduce
DM_TYPE_NVME_BIO_BASED"), and removed since commit 9c37de297f65 ("dm:
remove special-casing of bio-based immutable singleton target on NVMe")
in v5.10.

commit 809b1e4945774c9ec5619a8f4e2189b7b3833c0c upstream.

This reverts commit
644bda6f3460 ("dm table: fall back to getting device using name_to_dev_t()")

dm_get_dev_t() is just used to convert an arbitrary 'path' string
into a dev_t. It doesn't presume that the device is present; that
check will be done later, as the only caller is dm_get_device(),
which does a dm_get_table_device() later on, which will properly
open the device.

So if the path string already _is_ in major:minor representation
we can convert it directly, avoiding a recursion into the filesystem
to lookup the block device.

This avoids a hang in multipath_message() when the filesystem is
inaccessible.

[ Upstream commit e7b624183d921b49ef0a96329f21647d38865ee9 ]

The BUG_ON(in_interrupt()) in dm_table_event() is a historic leftover from
a rework of the dm table code which changed the calling context.

Issuing a BUG for a wrong calling context is frowned upon and
in_interrupt() is deprecated and only covering parts of the wrong
contexts. The sanity check for the context is covered by
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP and other debug facilities already.

commit 1cfd5d3399e87167b7f9157ef99daa0e959f395d upstream.

If the sector number is too high, dm_table_find_target() should return a
pointer to a zeroed dm_target structure (the caller should test it with
dm_target_is_valid).

However, for some table sizes, the code in dm_table_find_target() that
performs btree lookup will access out of bound memory structures.

Fix this bug by testing the sector number at the beginning of
dm_table_find_target(). Also, add an "inline" keyword to the function
dm_table_get_size() because this is a hot path.

commit 1cfd5d3399e87167b7f9157ef99daa0e959f395d upstream.

If the sector number is too high, dm_table_find_target() should return a
pointer to a zeroed dm_target structure (the caller should test it with
dm_target_is_valid).

However, for some table sizes, the code in dm_table_find_target() that
performs btree lookup will access out of bound memory structures.

Fix this bug by testing the sector number at the beginning of
dm_table_find_target(). Also, add an "inline" keyword to the function
dm_table_get_size() because this is a hot path.

Fixes: 512875bd9661 ("dm: table detect io beyond device")

[ Upstream commit a0651926553cfe7992166432e418987760882652 ]

For the first call to realloc_argv() in dm_split_args(), old_argv is
NULL and size is zero. Then memcpy is called, with the NULL old_argv
as the source argument and a zero size argument. AFAIK, this is
undefined behavior and generates the following warning when compiled
with UBSAN on ppc64le:

<title>dm table: propagate BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES to fix sporadic checksum errors</title>

commit eb40c0acdc342b815d4d03ae6abb09e80c0f2988 upstream.

Some devices don't use blk_integrity but still want stable pages
because they do their own checksumming.  Examples include rbd and iSCSI
when data digests are negotiated.  Stacking DM (and thus LVM) on top of
these devices results in sporadic checksum errors.

Set BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES if any underlying device has it set.
