<id>6f6b5d1ec56acdeab0503d2b823f6f88a0af493e</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch changes percpu_ida_alloc() + callers to accept task state
bitmask for prepare_to_wait() for code like target/iscsi that needs
it for interruptible sleep, that is provided in a subsequent patch.

It now expects TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE when the caller is able to sleep
waiting for a new tag, or TASK_RUNNING when the caller cannot sleep,
and is forced to return a negative value when no tags are available.

v2 changes:
  - Include blk-mq + tcm_fc + vhost/scsi + target/iscsi changes
  - Drop signal_pending_state() call
v3 changes:
  - Only call prepare_to_wait() + finish_wait() when != TASK_RUNNING

This patch adds support to target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() for
accepting 'sgl_prot' + 'sgl_prot_count' parameters for
DIF protection information.

Note the passed parameters are stored at se_cmd-&gt;t_prot_sg
and se_cmd-&gt;t_prot_nents respectively.

Also, update tcm_loop and vhost-scsi fabrics usage of
target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() to take into account the
new parameters.

<title>vhost/scsi: Fix incorrect usage of get_user_pages_fast write parameter</title>

<id>60a01f558af9c48b0bb31f303c479e32721add3f</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch addresses a long-standing bug where the get_user_pages_fast()
write parameter used for setting the underlying page table entry permission
bits was incorrectly set to write=1 for data_direction=DMA_TO_DEVICE, and
passed into get_user_pages_fast() via vhost_scsi_map_iov_to_sgl().

However, this parameter is intended to signal WRITEs to pinned userspace
PTEs for the virtio-scsi DMA_FROM_DEVICE -&gt; READ payload case, and *not*
for the virtio-scsi DMA_TO_DEVICE -&gt; WRITE payload case.

This bug would manifest itself as random process segmentation faults on
KVM host after repeated vhost starts + stops and/or with lots of vhost
endpoints + LUNs.

As vhost scsi device struct is large, if the device is
created on a busy system, kzalloc() might fail, so this patch does a
fallback to vzalloc().

As vmalloc() adds overhead on data-path, add __GFP_REPEAT
to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.
