[ Upstream commit e9f5a55b70ae6187ab64ef2d1232ae2738e31d1f ]

The functon dm_blk_report_zones reads md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map, however it
may change while the function is running. Use READ_ONCE.

[ Upstream commit 24c405fdbe215c45e57bba672cc42859038491ee ]

The function dm_blk_report_zones tests if the device is suspended with
the "dm_suspended_md" call. However, this function is called without
holding any locks, so the device may be suspended just after it.

Move the call to dm_suspended_md after dm_get_live_table, so that the
device can't be suspended after the suspended state was tested.

If a DM device that can pass down zone append commands is stacked on top
of a device that emulates zone append commands, it will allocate zone
append emulation resources, even though it doesn't use them. This is
because the underlying device will have max_hw_zone_append_sectors set
to 0 to request zone append emulation. When the DM device is stacked on
top of it, it will inherit that max_hw_zone_append_sectors limit,
despite being able to pass down zone append bios. Solve this by making
sure max_hw_zone_append_sectors is non-zero for DM devices that do not
need zone append emulation.

<title>dm: limit swapping tables for devices with zone write plugs</title>

dm_revalidate_zones() only allowed new or previously unzoned devices to
call blk_revalidate_disk_zones(). If the device was already zoned,
disk-&gt;nr_zones would always equal md-&gt;nr_zones, so dm_revalidate_zones()
returned without doing any work. This would make the zoned settings for
the device not match the new table. If the device had zone write plug
resources, it could run into errors like bdev_zone_is_seq() reading
invalid memory because disk-&gt;conv_zones_bitmap was the wrong size.

If the device doesn't have any zone write plug resources, calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will always correctly update device.  If
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() fails, it can still overwrite or clear the
current disk-&gt;nr_zones value. In this case, DM must restore the previous
value of disk-&gt;nr_zones, so that the zoned settings will continue to
match the previous value that it fell back to.

If the device already has zone write plug resources,
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will not correctly update them, if it is
called for arbitrary zoned device changes.  Since there is not much need
for this ability, the easiest solution is to disallow any table reloads
that change the zoned settings, for devices that already have zone plug
resources.  Specifically, if a device already has zone plug resources
allocated, it can only switch to another zoned table that also emulates
zone append.  Also, it cannot change the device size or the zone size. A
device can switch to an error target.

If dm_get_live_table() returned NULL, dm_put_live_table() was never
called. Also, it is possible that md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map will change
while calling this function. Only read it once, so that we are always
using the same value. Otherwise we might miss a call to
dm_put_live_table().

Finally, while md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map is set and a process is calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() to set up the zone append emulation
resources, it is possible that another process, perhaps triggered by
blkdev_report_zones_ioctl(), will call dm_blk_report_zones(). If
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() fails, these resources can be freed while
the other process is still using them, causing a use-after-free error.

blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will only ever be called when initially
setting up the zone append emulation resources, such as when setting up
a zoned dm-crypt table for the first time. Further table swaps will not
set md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map or call blk_revalidate_disk_zones().
However it must be called using the new table (referenced by
md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map) and the new queue limits while the DM device is
suspended. dm_blk_report_zones() needs some way to distinguish between a
call from blk_revalidate_disk_zones(), which must be allowed to use
md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map to access this not yet activated table, and all
other calls to dm_blk_report_zones(), which should not be allowed while
the device is suspended and cannot use md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map, since
the zone resources might be freed by the process currently calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones().

Solve this by tracking the process that sets md-&gt;zone_revalidate_map in
dm_revalidate_zones() and only allowing that process to make use of it
in dm_blk_report_zones().

device-mapper will continue using the previous table. It must be sure to
leave the mapped_device in it's previous state on failure.  Otherwise
device-mapper could end up using the old table with settings from the
unused table.

Do not update the mapped device in dm_set_zones_restrictions(). Wait
till after dm_table_set_restrictions() is sure to succeed to update the

max_zone_append_sectors differs from all other queue limits in that the
final value used is not stored in the queue_limits but needs to be
obtained using queue_limits_max_zone_append_sectors helper.  This not
only adds (tiny) extra overhead to the I/O path, but also can be easily
forgotten in file system code.

Add a new max_hw_zone_append_sectors value to queue_limits which is
set by the driver, and calculate max_zone_append_sectors from that and
the other inputs in blk_validate_zoned_limits, similar to how
max_sectors is calculated to fix this.

This causes issue on, at least, nvme-mpath where my boot fails with:

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

presumably due to max_zone_append_sectors not being cleared to zero,
resulting in blk_validate_zoned_limits() complaining and failing.

This reverts commit 2a8f6153e1c2db06a537a5c9d61102eb591776f1.
