[ Upstream commit 224b0683228c5f332f9cee615d85e75e9a347170 ]

Except for the IDA none of the allocations in bcache_device_init is
unwound on error, fix that.

commit 054bee16163df023e2589db09fd27d81f7ad9e72 upstream.

LVM doesn't like it when the target returns different values from what
was set in the constructor. Fix dm-writecache so that the returned
table values are exactly the same as requested values.

commit b6e58b5466b2959f83034bead2e2e1395cca8aeb upstream.

remove_raw() in dm_btree_remove() may fail due to IO read error
(e.g. read the content of origin block fails during shadowing),
and the value of shadow_spine::root is uninitialized, but
the uninitialized value is still assign to new_root in the
end of dm_btree_remove().

For dm-thin, the value of pmd-&gt;details_root or pmd-&gt;root will become
an uninitialized value, so if trying to read details_info tree again
out-of-bound memory may occur as showed below:

  general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x3fdcb14c8d7520
  CPU: 4 PID: 515 Comm: dmsetup Not tainted 5.13.0-rc6

[ Upstream commit 5faafc77f7de69147d1e818026b9a0cbf036a7b2 ]

Current commit code resets the place where the search for free blocks
will begin back to the start of the metadata device.  There are a couple
of repercussions to this:

- The first allocation after the commit is likely to take longer than
  normal as it searches for a free block in an area that is likely to
  have very few free blocks (if any).

- Any free blocks it finds will have been recently freed.  Reusing them
  means we have fewer old copies of the metadata to aid recovery from
  hardware error.

Fix these issues by leaving the cursor alone, only resetting when the
search hits the end of the metadata device.

[ Upstream commit 0c1f3193b1cdd21e7182f97dc9bca7d284d18a15 ]

The third parameter of module_param() is permissions for the sysfs node
but it looks like it is being used as the initial value of the parameter
here.  In fact, false here equates to omitting the file from sysfs and
does not affect the value of require_signatures.

Making the parameter writable is not simple because going from
false-&gt;true is fine but it should not be possible to remove the
requirement to verify a signature.  But it can be useful to inspect the
value of this parameter from userspace, so change the permissions to
make a read-only file in sysfs.

commit 7e768532b2396bcb7fbf6f82384b85c0f1d2f197 upstream.

If an origin target has no snapshots, o-&gt;split_boundary is set to 0.
This causes BUG_ON(sectors &lt;= 0) in block/bio.c:bio_split().

Fix this by initializing chunk_size, and in turn split_boundary, to
rounddown_pow_of_two(UINT_MAX) -- the largest power of two that fits
into "unsigned" type.

commit c699a0db2d62e3bbb7f0bf35c87edbc8d23e3062 upstream.

The following commands will crash the kernel:

modprobe brd rd_size=1048576
dmsetup create o --table "0 `blockdev --getsize /dev/ram0` snapshot-origin /dev/ram0"
dmsetup create s --table "0 `blockdev --getsize /dev/ram0` snapshot /dev/ram0 /dev/ram1 N 0"

The reason is that when we test for zero chunk size, we jump to the label
bad_read_metadata without setting the "r" variable. The function
snapshot_ctr destroys all the structures and then exits with "r == 0". The
kernel then crashes because it falsely believes that snapshot_ctr
succeeded.

In order to fix the bug, we set the variable "r" to -EINVAL.

commit 7abfabaf5f805f5171d133ce6af9b65ab766e76a upstream.

Reading /proc/mdstat with a read buffer size that would not
fit the unused status line in the first read will skip this
line from the output.

So 'dd if=/proc/mdstat bs=64 2&gt;/dev/null' will not print something
like: unused devices: &lt;none&gt;

Don't return NULL immediately in start() for v=2 but call
show() once to print the status line also for multiple reads.

commit 6a4db2a60306eb65bfb14ccc9fde035b74a4b4e7 upstream.

commit d3374825ce57 ("md: make devices disappear when they are no longer
needed.") introduced protection between mddev creating &amp; removing. The
md_open shouldn't create mddev when all_mddevs list doesn't contain
mddev. With currently code logic, there will be very easy to trigger
soft lockup in non-preempt env.

This patch changes md_open returning from -ERESTARTSYS to -EBUSY, which
will break the infinitely retry when md_open enter racing area.

This patch is partly fix soft lockup issue, full fix needs mddev_find
is split into two functions: mddev_find &amp; mddev_find_or_alloc. And
md_open should call new mddev_find (it only does searching job).

For more detail, please refer with Christoph's "split mddev_find" patch
in later commits.
