Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block

2017-10-06T19:13:50+00:00

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "A collection of fixes for this series. This contains:

   - NVMe pull request from Christoph, one uuid attribute fix, and one
     fix for the controller memory buffer address for remapped BARs.

   - use-after-free fix for bsg, from Benjamin Block.

   - bcache race/use-after-free fix for a list traversal, fixing a
     regression in this merge window. From Coly Li.

   - null_blk change configfs dependency change from a 'depends' to a
     'select'. This is a change from this merge window as well. From me.

   - nbd signal fix from Josef, fixing a regression introduced with the
     status code changes.

   - nbd MAINTAINERS mailing list entry update.

   - blk-throttle stall fix from Joseph Qi.

   - blk-mq-debugfs fix from Omar, fixing an issue where we don't
     register the IO scheduler debugfs directory, if the driver is
     loaded with it. Only shows up if you switch through the sysfs
     interface"

zram: fix null dereference of handle

2017-10-04T00:54:24+00:00

In testing I found handle passed to zs_map_object in __zram_bvec_read is
NULL so eh kernel goes oops in pin_object().

The reason is there is no routine to check the slot's freeing after
getting the slot's lock.  This patch fixes it.

null_blk: change configfs dependency to select

2017-10-03T21:58:15+00:00

A recent commit made null_blk depend on configfs, which is kind of
annoying since you now have to find this dependency and enable that
as well. Discovered this since I no longer had null_blk available
on a box I needed to debug, since it got killed when the config
updated after the configfs change was merged.

nbd: fix -ERESTARTSYS handling

2017-10-02T20:29:09+00:00

Christoph made it so that if we return'ed BLK_STS_RESOURCE whenever we
got ERESTARTSYS from sending our packets we'd return BLK_STS_OK, which
means we'd never requeue and just hang.  We really need to return the
right value from the upper layer.

loop: remove union of use_aio and ref in struct loop_cmd

2017-09-25T14:56:05+00:00

When the request is completed, lo_complete_rq() checks cmd->use_aio.
However, if this is in fact an aio request, cmd->use_aio will have
already been reused as cmd->ref by lo_rw_aio*. Fix it by not using a
union. On x86_64, there's a hole after the union anyways, so this
doesn't make struct loop_cmd any bigger.

nbd: ignore non-nbd ioctl's

2017-09-25T14:56:05+00:00

In testing we noticed that nbd would spew if you ran a fio job against
the raw device itself.  This is because fio calls a block device
specific ioctl, however the block layer will first pass this back to the
driver ioctl handler in case the driver wants to do something special.
Since the device was setup using netlink this caused us to spew every
time fio called this ioctl.  Since we don't have special handling, just
error out for any non-nbd specific ioctl's that come in.  This fixes the
spew.

brd: fix overflow in __brd_direct_access

2017-09-25T14:56:05+00:00

The code in __brd_direct_access multiplies the pgoff variable by page size
and divides it by 512. It can cause overflow on 32-bit architectures. The
overflow happens if we create ramdisk larger than 4G and use it as a
sparse device.

This patch replaces multiplication and division with multiplication by the
number of sectors per page.

2017-09-09T19:49:01+00:00

Pull followup block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "I ended up splitting the main pull request for this series into two,
  mainly because of clashes between NVMe fixes that went into 4.13 after
  the for-4.14 branches were split off. This pull request is mostly
  NVMe, but not exclusively. In detail, it contains:

   - Two pull request for NVMe changes from Christoph. Nothing new on
     the feature front, basically just fixes all over the map for the
     core bits, transport, rdma, etc.

   - Series from Bart, cleaning up various bits in the BFQ scheduler.

   - Series of bcache fixes, which has been lingering for a release or
     two. Coly sent this in, but patches from various people in this
     area.

   - Set of patches for BFQ from Paolo himself, updating both
     documentation and fixing some corner cases in performance.

   - Series from Omar, attempting to now get the 4k loop support
     correct. Our confidence level is higher this time.

   - Series from Shaohua for loop as well, improving O_DIRECT
     performance and fixing a use-after-free"

drivers/block/zram/zram_drv.c: convert to using memset_l

2017-09-09T01:26:48+00:00

zram was the motivation for creating memset_l().  Minchan Kim sees a 7%
performance improvement on x86 with 100MB of non-zero deduplicatable
data:

        perf stat -r 10 dd if=/dev/zram0 of=/dev/null

vanilla:        0.232050465 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.51% )
memset_l:	0.217219387 seconds time elapsed ( +-  0.07% )
