[ Upstream commit 9dd1cd3220eca534f2d47afad7ce85f4c40118d8 ]

Commit ca522482e3eaf ("dm: pass NULL bdev to bio_alloc_clone")
introduced the optimization to _not_ perform bio_associate_blkg()'s
relatively costly work when DM core clones its bio. But in doing so it
exposed the possibility for DM's cloned bio to alter DM target
behavior (e.g. crash) if a target were to issue IO without first
calling bio_set_dev().

The DM raid target can trigger an MD crash due to its need to split
the DM bio that is passed to md_handle_request(). The split will
recurse to submit_bio_noacct() using a bio with an uninitialized
-&gt;bi_blkg. This NULL bio-&gt;bi_blkg causes blk_throtl_bio() to
dereference a NULL blkg_to_tg(bio-&gt;bi_blkg).

Fix this in DM core by adding a new 'needs_bio_set_dev' target flag that
will make alloc_tio() call bio_set_dev() on behalf of the target.
dm-raid is the only target that requires this flag. bio_set_dev()
initializes the DM cloned bio's -&gt;bi_blkg, using bio_associate_blkg,
before passing the bio to md_handle_request().

Long-term fix would be to audit and refactor MD code to rely on DM to
split its bio, using dm_accept_partial_bio(), but there are MD raid
personalities (e.g. raid1 and raid10) whose implementation are tightly
coupled to handling the bio splitting inline.

[ Upstream commit 7dad24db59d2d2803576f2e3645728866a056dab ]

There is a KASAN warning in raid_resume when running the lvm test
lvconvert-raid.sh. The reason for the warning is that mddev-&gt;raid_disks
is greater than rs-&gt;raid_disks, so the loop touches one entry beyond
the allocated length.

[ Upstream commit 1fbeea217d8f297fe0e0956a1516d14ba97d0396 ]

There is this warning when using a kernel with the address sanitizer
and running this testsuite:
https://gitlab.com/cki-project/kernel-tests/-/tree/main/storage/swraid/scsi_raid

==================================================================

The warning is caused by reading conf-&gt;max_nr_stripes in raid_status. The
code in raid_status reads mddev-&gt;private, casts it to struct r5conf and
reads the entry max_nr_stripes.

However, if we have different raid type than 4/5/6, mddev-&gt;private
doesn't point to struct r5conf; it may point to struct r0conf, struct
r1conf, struct r10conf or struct mpconf. If we cast a pointer to one
of these structs to struct r5conf, we will be reading invalid memory
and KASAN warns about it.

Fix this bug by reading struct r5conf only if raid type is 4, 5 or 6.

[ Upstream commit ca7dc242e358e46d963b32f9d9dd829785a9e957 ]

dm-writecache has the capability to limit the number of writeback jobs
in progress. However, this feature was off by default. As such there
were some out-of-memory crashes observed when lowering the low
watermark while the cache is full.

This commit enables writeback limit by default. It is set to 256MiB or
1/16 of total system memory, whichever is smaller.

[ Upstream commit b2676e1482af89714af6988ce5d31a84692e2530 ]

Change dm-writecache, so that it counts the number of blocks written
instead of the number of write bios. Bios can be split and requeued
using the dm_accept_partial_bio function, so counting bios caused
inaccurate results.

[ Upstream commit 9bc0c92e4b82adb017026dbb2aa816b1ac2bef31 ]

The functions writecache_map_remap_origin and writecache_bio_copy_ssd
only return a single value, thus they can be made to return void.

This helps simplify the following IO accounting changes.
