[ Upstream commit 3b7995a98ad76da5597b488fa84aa5a56d43b608 ]

When I doing fuzzy test, get the memleak report:

If __blk_rq_map_user_iov() is failed in blk_rq_map_user_iov(),
the bio(s) which is allocated before this failing will leak. The
refcount of the bio(s) is init to 1 and increased to 2 by calling
bio_get(), but __blk_rq_unmap_user() only decrease it to 1, so
the bio cannot be freed. Fix it by calling blk_rq_unmap_user().

commit 69e0927b3774563c19b5fb32e91d75edc147fb62 upstream.

During stress tests by syzkaller on the sg driver the block layer
infrequently returns EINVAL. Closer inspection shows the block
layer was trying to return ENOMEM (which is much more
understandable) but for some reason overroad that useful error.

Patch below does not show this (unchanged) line:
   ret =__blk_rq_map_user_iov(rq, map_data, &amp;i, gfp_mask, copy);
That 'ret' was being overridden when that function failed.

commit 0abc2a10389f0c9070f76ca906c7382788036b93 upstream.

Commit caa4b02476e3(blk-map: call blk_queue_bounce from blk_rq_append_bio)
moves blk_queue_bounce() into blk_rq_append_bio(), but don't consider
the fact that the bounced bio becomes invisible to caller since the
parameter type is 'struct bio *'. Make it a pointer to a pointer to
a bio, so the caller sees the right bio also after a bounce.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd</id>
<content type='text'>
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

<title>sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt;</title>

We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

<content type='text'>
Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it
all into the operations.  The little caveat here is that previously
cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op
fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough
operations.

Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.

Pull block layer updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the main block pull request this series. Contrary to previous
  release, I've kept the core and driver changes in the same branch. We
  always ended up having dependencies between the two for obvious
  reasons, so makes more sense to keep them together. That said, I'll
  probably try and keep more topical branches going forward, especially
  for cycles that end up being as busy as this one.

  The major parts of this pull request is:

   - Improved support for O_DIRECT on block devices, with a small
     private implementation instead of using the pig that is
     fs/direct-io.c. From Christoph.

   - Request completion tracking in a scalable fashion. This is utilized
     by two components in this pull, the new hybrid polling and the
     writeback queue throttling code.

   - Improved support for polling with O_DIRECT, adding a hybrid mode
     that combines pure polling with an initial sleep. From me.

   - Support for automatic throttling of writeback queues on the block
     side. This uses feedback from the device completion latencies to
     scale the queue on the block side up or down. From me.

   - Support from SMR drives in the block layer and for SD. From Hannes
     and Shaun.

   - Multi-connection support for nbd. From Josef.

   - Cleanup of request and bio flags, so we have a clear split between
     which are bio (or rq) private, and which ones are shared. From
     Christoph.

   - A set of patches from Bart, that improve how we handle queue
     stopping and starting in blk-mq.

   - Support for WRITE_ZEROES from Chaitanya.

   - Lightnvm updates from Javier/Matias.

   - Supoort for FC for the nvme-over-fabrics code. From James Smart.

   - A bunch of fixes from a whole slew of people, too many to name
     here"

In theory we could map other things, but there's a reason that function
is called "user_iov".  Using anything else (like splice can do) just
confuses it.

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields.  This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.

In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.

Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits.  Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.
