commit 5df96f2b9f58a5d2dc1f30fe7de75e197f2c25f2 upstream.

Commit adc0daad366b62ca1bce3e2958a40b0b71a8b8b3 ("dm: report suspended
device during destroy") broke integrity recalculation.

The problem is dm_suspended() returns true not only during suspend,
but also during resume. So this race condition could occur:
1. dm_integrity_resume calls queue_work(ic-&gt;recalc_wq, &amp;ic-&gt;recalc_work)
2. integrity_recalc (&amp;ic-&gt;recalc_work) preempts the current thread
3. integrity_recalc calls if (unlikely(dm_suspended(ic-&gt;ti))) goto unlock_ret;
4. integrity_recalc exits and no recalculating is done.

To fix this race condition, add a function dm_post_suspending that is
only true during the postsuspend phase and use it instead of
dm_suspended().

[ Upstream commit 382761dc6312965a11f82f2217e16ec421bf17ae ]

bio_uninit is the proper API to clean up a BIO that has been allocated
on stack or inside a structure that doesn't come from the BIO allocator.
Switch dm to use that instead of bio_disassociate_blkg, which really is
an implementation detail.  Note that the bio_uninit calls are also moved
to the two callers of __send_empty_flush, so that they better pair with
the bio_init calls used to initialize them.

commit 6958c1c640af8c3f40fa8a2eee3b5b905d95b677 upstream.

kobject_uevent may allocate memory and it may be called while there are dm
devices suspended. The allocation may recurse into a suspended device,
causing a deadlock. We must set the noio flag when sending a uevent.

The observed deadlock was reported here:

<title>bcache: check and adjust logical block size for backing devices</title>

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit dcacbc1242c71e18fa9d2eadc5647e115c9c627d ]

It's possible for a block driver to set logical block size to
a value greater than page size incorrectly; e.g. bcache takes
the value from the superblock, set by the user w/ make-bcache.

This causes a BUG/NULL pointer dereference in the path:

  __blkdev_get()
  -&gt; set_init_blocksize() // set i_blkbits based on ...
     -&gt; bdev_logical_block_size()
        -&gt; queue_logical_block_size() // ... this value
  -&gt; bdev_disk_changed()
     ...
     -&gt; blkdev_readpage()
        -&gt; block_read_full_page()
           -&gt; create_page_buffers() // size = 1 &lt;&lt; i_blkbits
              -&gt; create_empty_buffers() // give size/take pointer
                 -&gt; alloc_page_buffers() // return NULL
                 .. BUG!

Because alloc_page_buffers() is called with size &gt; PAGE_SIZE,
thus it initializes head = NULL, skips the loop, return head;
then create_empty_buffers() gets (and uses) the NULL pointer.

This has been around longer than commit ad6bf88a6c19 ("block:
fix an integer overflow in logical block size"); however, it
increased the range of values that can trigger the issue.

Previously only 8k/16k/32k (on x86/4k page size) would do it,
as greater values overflow unsigned short to zero, and queue_
logical_block_size() would then use the default of 512.

Now the range with unsigned int is much larger, and users w/
the 512k value, which happened to be zero'ed previously and
work fine, started to hit this issue -- as the zero is gone,
and queue_logical_block_size() does return 512k (&gt;PAGE_SIZE.)

Fix this by checking the bcache device's logical block size,
and if it's greater than page size, fallback to the backing/
cached device's logical page size.

This doesn't affect cache devices as those are still checked
for block/page size in read_super(); only the backing/cached
devices are not.

Apparently it's a regression from commit 2903381fce71 ("bcache:
Take data offset from the bdev superblock."), moving the check
into BCACHE_SB_VERSION_CDEV only. Now that we have superblocks
of backing devices out there with this larger value, we cannot
refuse to load them (i.e., have a similar check in _BDEV.)

Ideally perhaps bcache should use all values from the backing
device (physical/logical/io_min block size)? But for now just
fix the problematic case.

Test-case:

    # IMG=/root/disk.img
    # dd if=/dev/zero of=$IMG bs=1 count=0 seek=1G
    # DEV=$(losetup --find --show $IMG)
    # make-bcache --bdev $DEV --block 8k
      &lt; see dmesg &gt;

[ Upstream commit dcacbc1242c71e18fa9d2eadc5647e115c9c627d ]

It's possible for a block driver to set logical block size to
a value greater than page size incorrectly; e.g. bcache takes
the value from the superblock, set by the user w/ make-bcache.

This causes a BUG/NULL pointer dereference in the path:

  __blkdev_get()
  -&gt; set_init_blocksize() // set i_blkbits based on ...
     -&gt; bdev_logical_block_size()
        -&gt; queue_logical_block_size() // ... this value
  -&gt; bdev_disk_changed()
     ...
     -&gt; blkdev_readpage()
        -&gt; block_read_full_page()
           -&gt; create_page_buffers() // size = 1 &lt;&lt; i_blkbits
              -&gt; create_empty_buffers() // give size/take pointer
                 -&gt; alloc_page_buffers() // return NULL
                 .. BUG!

Because alloc_page_buffers() is called with size &gt; PAGE_SIZE,
thus it initializes head = NULL, skips the loop, return head;
then create_empty_buffers() gets (and uses) the NULL pointer.

This has been around longer than commit ad6bf88a6c19 ("block:
fix an integer overflow in logical block size"); however, it
increased the range of values that can trigger the issue.

Previously only 8k/16k/32k (on x86/4k page size) would do it,
as greater values overflow unsigned short to zero, and queue_
logical_block_size() would then use the default of 512.

Now the range with unsigned int is much larger, and users w/
the 512k value, which happened to be zero'ed previously and
work fine, started to hit this issue -- as the zero is gone,
and queue_logical_block_size() does return 512k (&gt;PAGE_SIZE.)

Fix this by checking the bcache device's logical block size,
and if it's greater than page size, fallback to the backing/
cached device's logical page size.

This doesn't affect cache devices as those are still checked
for block/page size in read_super(); only the backing/cached
devices are not.

Apparently it's a regression from commit 2903381fce71 ("bcache:
Take data offset from the bdev superblock."), moving the check
into BCACHE_SB_VERSION_CDEV only. Now that we have superblocks
of backing devices out there with this larger value, we cannot
refuse to load them (i.e., have a similar check in _BDEV.)

Ideally perhaps bcache should use all values from the backing
device (physical/logical/io_min block size)? But for now just
fix the problematic case.

Test-case:

    # IMG=/root/disk.img
    # dd if=/dev/zero of=$IMG bs=1 count=0 seek=1G
    # DEV=$(losetup --find --show $IMG)
    # make-bcache --bdev $DEV --block 8k
      &lt; see dmesg &gt;

coccicheck reports:
  drivers/md//bcache/btree.c:1538:1-7: preceding lock on line 1417

In btree_gc_coalesce func, if the coalescing process fails, we will goto
to out_nocoalesce tag directly without releasing new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock.
Then, it will cause a deadlock when trying to acquire new_nodes[i]-&gt;
write_lock for freeing new_nodes[i] before return.

btree_gc_coalesce func details as follows:
	if alloc new_nodes[i] fails:
		goto out_nocoalesce;
	// obtain new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock
	mutex_lock(&amp;new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock)
	// main coalescing process
	for (i = nodes - 1; i &gt; 0; --i)
		[snipped]
		if coalescing process fails:
			// Here, directly goto out_nocoalesce
			 // tag will cause a deadlock
			goto out_nocoalesce;
		[snipped]
	// release new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock
	mutex_unlock(&amp;new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock)
	// coalesing succ, return
	return;
out_nocoalesce:
	btree_node_free(new_nodes[i])	// free new_nodes[i]
	// obtain new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock
	mutex_lock(&amp;new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock);
	// set flag for reuse
	clear_bit(BTREE_NODE_dirty, &amp;ew_nodes[i]-&gt;flags);
	// release new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock
	mutex_unlock(&amp;new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock);

To fix the problem, we add a new tag 'out_unlock_nocoalesce' for
releasing new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock before out_nocoalesce tag. If
coalescing process fails, we will go to out_unlock_nocoalesce tag
for releasing new_nodes[i]-&gt;write_lock before free new_nodes[i] in
out_nocoalesce tag.

The only case where dmz_get_zone_for_reclaim() cannot return a zone is
if the respective lists are empty. So we should just return a simple
NULL value here as we really don't have an error code which would make
sense.
