commit 974f51e8633f0f3f33e8f86bbb5ae66758aa63c7 upstream.

We neither assign congested_fn for requested-based blk-mq device nor
implement it correctly. So fix both.

Also, remove incorrect comment from dm_init_normal_md_queue and rename
it to dm_init_congested_fn.

commit ee63634bae02e13c8c0df1209a6a0ca5326f3189 upstream.

Dm-zoned initializes reference counters of new chunk works with zero
value and refcount_inc() is called to increment the counter. However, the
refcount_inc() function handles the addition to zero value as an error
and triggers the warning as follows:

refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

After this warning, following refcount API calls for the counter all fail
to change the counter value.

Fix this by setting the initial reference counter value not zero but one
for the new chunk works. Instead, do not call refcount_inc() via
dmz_get_chunk_work() for the new chunks works.

The failure was observed with linux version 5.4 with CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL
enabled. Refcount rework was merged to linux version 5.5 by the
commit 168829ad09ca ("Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip"). After this
commit, CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL was removed and the failure was observed
regardless of kernel configuration.

Linux version 4.20 merged the commit 092b5648760a ("dm zoned: target: use
refcount_t for dm zoned reference counters"). Before this commit, dm
zoned used atomic_t APIs which does not check addition to zero, then this
fix is not necessary.

<title>dm: report suspended device during destroy</title>

commit adc0daad366b62ca1bce3e2958a40b0b71a8b8b3 upstream.

The function dm_suspended returns true if the target is suspended.
However, when the target is being suspended during unload, it returns
false.

An example where this is a problem: the test "!dm_suspended(wc-&gt;ti)" in
writecache_writeback is not sufficient, because dm_suspended returns
zero while writecache_suspend is in progress.  As is, without an
enhanced dm_suspended, simply switching from flush_workqueue to
drain_workqueue still emits warnings:
workqueue writecache-writeback: drain_workqueue() isn't complete after 10 tries
workqueue writecache-writeback: drain_workqueue() isn't complete after 100 tries
workqueue writecache-writeback: drain_workqueue() isn't complete after 200 tries
workqueue writecache-writeback: drain_workqueue() isn't complete after 300 tries
workqueue writecache-writeback: drain_workqueue() isn't complete after 400 tries

writecache_suspend calls flush_workqueue(wc-&gt;writeback_wq) - this function
flushes the current work. However, the workqueue may re-queue itself and
flush_workqueue doesn't wait for re-queued works to finish. Because of
this - the function writecache_writeback continues execution after the
device was suspended and then concurrently with writecache_dtr, causing
a crash in writecache_writeback.

We must use drain_workqueue - that waits until the work and all re-queued
works finish.

As a prereq for switching to drain_workqueue, this commit fixes
dm_suspended to return true after the presuspend hook and before the
postsuspend hook - just like during a normal suspend. It allows
simplifying the dm-integrity and dm-writecache targets so that they
don't have to maintain suspended flags on their own.

With this change use of drain_workqueue() can be used effectively.  This
change was tested with the lvm2 testsuite and cryptsetup testsuite and
the are no regressions.

<title>dm cache: fix a crash due to incorrect work item cancelling</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 7cdf6a0aae1cccf5167f3f04ecddcf648b78e289 upstream.

The crash can be reproduced by running the lvm2 testsuite test
lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh for several minutes, e.g.:
  while :; do make check T=shell/lvconvert-thin-external-cache.sh; done

The crash happens in this call chain:
do_waker -&gt; policy_tick -&gt; smq_tick -&gt; end_hotspot_period -&gt; clear_bitset
-&gt; memset -&gt; __memset -- which accesses an invalid pointer in the vmalloc
area.

The work entry on the workqueue is executed even after the bitmap was
freed. The problem is that cancel_delayed_work doesn't wait for the
running work item to finish, so the work item can continue running and
re-submitting itself even after cache_postsuspend. In order to make sure
that the work item won't be running, we must use cancel_delayed_work_sync.

Also, change flush_workqueue to drain_workqueue, so that if some work item
submits itself or another work item, we are properly waiting for both of
them.

<title>dm integrity: fix a deadlock due to offloading to an incorrect workqueue</title>

<id>f9d35915324c568ace59eb78488a04d594956fbe</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 53770f0ec5fd417429775ba006bc4abe14002335 upstream.

If we need to perform synchronous I/O in dm_integrity_map_continue(),
we must make sure that we are not in the map function - in order to
avoid the deadlock due to bio queuing in generic_make_request. To
avoid the deadlock, we offload the request to metadata_wq.

However, metadata_wq also processes metadata updates for write requests.
If there are too many requests that get offloaded to metadata_wq at the
beginning of dm_integrity_map_continue, the workqueue metadata_wq
becomes clogged and the system is incapable of processing any metadata
updates.

This causes a deadlock because all the requests that need to do metadata
updates wait for metadata_wq to proceed and metadata_wq waits inside
wait_and_add_new_range until some existing request releases its range
lock (which doesn't happen because the range lock is released after
metadata update).

In order to fix the deadlock, we create a new workqueue offload_wq and
offload requests to it - so that processing of offload_wq is independent
from processing of metadata_wq.

commit 53770f0ec5fd417429775ba006bc4abe14002335 upstream.

If we need to perform synchronous I/O in dm_integrity_map_continue(),
we must make sure that we are not in the map function - in order to
avoid the deadlock due to bio queuing in generic_make_request. To
avoid the deadlock, we offload the request to metadata_wq.

However, metadata_wq also processes metadata updates for write requests.
If there are too many requests that get offloaded to metadata_wq at the
beginning of dm_integrity_map_continue, the workqueue metadata_wq
becomes clogged and the system is incapable of processing any metadata
updates.

This causes a deadlock because all the requests that need to do metadata
updates wait for metadata_wq to proceed and metadata_wq waits inside
wait_and_add_new_range until some existing request releases its range
lock (which doesn't happen because the range lock is released after
metadata update).

In order to fix the deadlock, we create a new workqueue offload_wq and
offload requests to it - so that processing of offload_wq is independent
from processing of metadata_wq.

<title>dm integrity: fix recalculation when moving from journal mode to bitmap mode</title>

commit d5bdf66108419cdb39da361b58ded661c29ff66e upstream.

If we resume a device in bitmap mode and the on-disk format is in journal
mode, we must recalculate anything above ic-&gt;sb-&gt;recalc_sector. Otherwise,
there would be non-recalculated blocks which would cause I/O errors.

[ Upstream commit 29cda393bcaad160c4bf3676ddd99855adafc72f ]

Patch "bcache: rework error unwinding in register_bcache" from
Christoph Hellwig changes the local variables 'path' and 'err'
in undefined initial state. If the code in register_bcache() jumps
to label 'out:' or 'out_module_put:' by goto, these two variables
might be reference with undefined value by the following line,

	out_module_put:
	        module_put(THIS_MODULE);
	out:
	        pr_info("error %s: %s", path, err);
	        return ret;

Therefore this patch initializes these two local variables properly
in register_bcache() to avoid such issue.
