md: fix super_offset endianness in super_1_rdev_size_change

2017-11-02T06:16:19+00:00

commit 3fb632e40d7667d8bedfabc28850ac06d5493f54 upstream.

The sb->super_offset should be big-endian, but the rdev->sb_start is in
host byte order, so fix this by adding cpu_to_le64.

md/raid10: submit bio directly to replacement disk

Commit 57c67df(md/raid10: submit IO from originating thread instead of
md thread) submits bio directly for normal disks but not for replacement
disks. There is no point we shouldn't do this for replacement disks.

md/bitmap: disable bitmap_resize for file-backed bitmaps.

2017-11-02T06:16:18+00:00

commit e8a27f836f165c26f867ece7f31eb5c811692319 upstream.

bitmap_resize() does not work for file-backed bitmaps.
The buffer_heads are allocated and initialized when
the bitmap is read from the file, but resize doesn't
read from the file, it loads from the internal bitmap.
When it comes time to write the new bitmap, the bh is
non-existent and we crash.

The common case when growing an array involves making the array larger,
and that normally means making the bitmap larger.  Doing
that inside the kernel is possible, but would need more code.
It is probably easier to require people who use file-backed
bitmaps to remove them and re-add after a reshape.

So this patch disables the resizing of arrays which have
file-backed bitmaps.  This is better than crashing.

md linear: fix a race between linear_add() and linear_congested()

2017-06-20T06:02:59+00:00

commit 03a9e24ef2aaa5f1f9837356aed79c860521407a upstream.

Recently I receive a bug report that on Linux v3.0 based kerenl, hot add
disk to a md linear device causes kernel crash at linear_congested(). From
the crash image analysis, I find in linear_congested(), mddev->raid_disks
contains value N, but conf->disks[] only has N-1 pointers available. Then
a NULL pointer deference crashes the kernel.

There is a race between linear_add() and linear_congested(), RCU stuffs
used in these two functions cannot avoid the race. Since Linuv v4.0
RCU code is replaced by introducing mddev_suspend().  After checking the
upstream code, it seems linear_congested() is not called in
generic_make_request() code patch, so mddev_suspend() cannot provent it
from being called. The possible race still exists.

Here I explain how the race still exists in current code.  For a machine
has many CPUs, on one CPU, linear_add() is called to add a hard disk to a
md linear device; at the same time on other CPU, linear_congested() is
called to detect whether this md linear device is congested before issuing
an I/O request onto it.

Now I use a possible code execution time sequence to demo how the possible
race happens,

seq    linear_add()                linear_congested()
 0                                 conf=mddev->private
 1   oldconf=mddev->private
 2   mddev->raid_disks++
 3                              for (i=0; iraid_disks;i++)
 4                                bdev_get_queue(conf->disks[i].rdev->bdev)
 5   mddev->private=newconf

In linear_add() mddev->raid_disks is increased in time seq 2, and on
another CPU in linear_congested() the for-loop iterates conf->disks[i] by
the increased mddev->raid_disks in time seq 3,4. But conf with one more
element (which is a pointer to struct dev_info type) to conf->disks[] is
not updated yet, accessing its structure member in time seq 4 will cause a
NULL pointer deference fault.

To fix this race, there are 2 parts of modification in the patch,
 1) Add 'int raid_disks' in struct linear_conf, as a copy of
    mddev->raid_disks. It is initialized in linear_conf(), always being
    consistent with pointers number of 'struct dev_info disks[]'. When
    iterating conf->disks[] in linear_congested(), use conf->raid_disks to
    replace mddev->raid_disks in the for-loop, then NULL pointer deference
    will not happen again.
 2) RCU stuffs are back again, and use kfree_rcu() in linear_add() to
    free oldconf memory. Because oldconf may be referenced as mddev->private
    in linear_congested(), kfree_rcu() makes sure that its memory will not
    be released until no one uses it any more.
Also some code comments are added in this patch, to make this modification
to be easier understandable.

This patch can be applied for kernels since v4.0 after commit:
3be260cc18f8 ("md/linear: remove rcu protections in favour of
suspend/resume"). But this bug is reported on Linux v3.0 based kernel, for
people who maintain kernels before Linux v4.0, they need to do some back
back port to this patch.

Changelog:
 - V3: add 'int raid_disks' in struct linear_conf, and use kfree_rcu() to
       replace rcu_call() in linear_add().
 - v2: add RCU stuffs by suggestion from Shaohua and Neil.
 - v1: initial effort.

md:raid1: fix a dead loop when read from a WriteMostly disk

2017-06-20T06:02:58+00:00

commit 816b0acf3deb6d6be5d0519b286fdd4bafade905 upstream.

If first_bad == this_sector when we get the WriteMostly disk
in read_balance(), valid disk will be returned with zero
max_sectors. It'll lead to a dead loop in make_request(), and
OOM will happen because of endless allocation of struct bio.

Since we can't get data from this disk in this case, so
continue for another disk.

md/raid5: limit request size according to implementation limits

2017-06-20T06:02:58+00:00

commit e8d7c33232e5fdfa761c3416539bc5b4acd12db5 upstream.

Current implementation employ 16bit counter of active stripes in lower
bits of bio->bi_phys_segments. If request is big enough to overflow
this counter bio will be completed and freed too early.

Fortunately this not happens in default configuration because several
other limits prevent that: stripe_cache_size * nr_disks effectively
limits count of active stripes. And small max_sectors_kb at lower
disks prevent that during normal read/write operations.

Overflow easily happens in discard if it's enabled by module parameter
"devices_handle_discard_safely" and stripe_cache_size is set big enough.

This patch limits requests size with 256Mb - 8Kb to prevent overflows.

dm space map metadata: fix 'struct sm_metadata' leak on failed create

2017-06-20T06:02:38+00:00

commit 314c25c56c1ee5026cf99c570bdfe01847927acb upstream.

In dm_sm_metadata_create() we temporarily change the dm_space_map
operations from 'ops' (whose .destroy function deallocates the
sm_metadata) to 'bootstrap_ops' (whose .destroy function doesn't).

If dm_sm_metadata_create() fails in sm_ll_new_metadata() or
sm_ll_extend(), it exits back to dm_tm_create_internal(), which calls
dm_sm_destroy() with the intention of freeing the sm_metadata, but it
doesn't (because the dm_space_map operations is still set to
'bootstrap_ops').

Fix this by setting the dm_space_map operations back to 'ops' if
dm_sm_metadata_create() fails when it is set to 'bootstrap_ops'.

dm crypt: mark key as invalid until properly loaded

In crypt_set_key(), if a failure occurs while replacing the old key
(e.g. tfm->setkey() fails) the key must not have DM_CRYPT_KEY_VALID flag
set.  Otherwise, the crypto layer would have an invalid key that still
has DM_CRYPT_KEY_VALID flag set.

dm: flush queued bios when process blocks to avoid deadlock

2017-06-07T22:47:02+00:00

commit d67a5f4b5947aba4bfe9a80a2b86079c215ca755 upstream.

Commit df2cb6daa4 ("block: Avoid deadlocks with bio allocation by
stacking drivers") created a workqueue for every bio set and code
in bio_alloc_bioset() that tries to resolve some low-memory deadlocks
by redirecting bios queued on current->bio_list to the workqueue if the
system is low on memory.  However other deadlocks (see below **) may
happen, without any low memory condition, because generic_make_request
is queuing bios to current->bio_list (rather than submitting them).

** the related dm-snapshot deadlock is detailed here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2016-July/msg00065.html

Fix this deadlock by redirecting any bios on current->bio_list to the
bio_set's rescue workqueue on every schedule() call.  Consequently,
when the process blocks on a mutex, the bios queued on
current->bio_list are dispatched to independent workqueus and they can
complete without waiting for the mutex to be available.

The structure blk_plug contains an entry cb_list and this list can contain
arbitrary callback functions that are called when the process blocks.
To implement this fix DM (ab)uses the onstack plug's cb_list interface
to get its flush_current_bio_list() called at schedule() time.

This fixes the snapshot deadlock - if the map method blocks,
flush_current_bio_list() will be called and it redirects bios waiting
on current->bio_list to appropriate workqueues.
