<id>urn:sha1:fe759487ee984c8ee9400b6c84841a97d42db3f1</id>
<content type='text'>
commit c8bd134a4bddafe5917d163eea73873932c15e83 upstream.

The call to strlcpy in backing_dev_store is incorrect. It should take
the size of the destination buffer instead of the size of the source
buffer.  Additionally, ignore the newline character (\n) when reading
the new file_name buffer. This makes it possible to set the backing_dev
as follows:

	echo /dev/sdX &gt; /sys/block/zram0/backing_dev

The reason it worked before was the fact that strlcpy() copies 'len - 1'
bytes, which is strlen(buf) - 1 in our case, so it accidentally didn't
copy the trailing new line symbol.  Which also means that "echo -n
/dev/sdX" most likely was broken.

<title>zram: remove BD_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO with writeback feature</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4f7a7beaee77275671654f7b9f3f9e73ca16ec65</id>
<content type='text'>
If zram supports writeback feature, it's no longer a
BD_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO device beause zram does asynchronous IO operations
for incompressible pages.

Do not pretend to be synchronous IO device.  It makes the system very
sluggish due to waiting for IO completion from upper layers.

Furthermore, it causes a user-after-free problem because swap thinks the
opearion is done when the IO functions returns so it can free the page
(e.g., lock_page_or_retry and goto out_release in do_swap_page) but in
fact, IO is asynchronous so the driver could access a just freed page
afterward.

This patch fixes the problem.

     which ended up causing corruption for larger sized O_DIRECT writes
     that ended up racing with buffered writes (Martin Wilck)"

If the server or network is misbehaving and we get an unexpected reply
we can sometimes miss the request not being started and wait on a
request and never get a response, or even double complete the same
request.  Fix this by replacing the send_complete completion with just a
per command lock.  Add a per command cookie as well so that we can know
if we're getting a double completion for a previous event.  Also check
to make sure we dont have REQUEUED set as that means we raced with the
timeout handler and need to just let the retry occur.

We can race with the snd timeout and the per-request timeout and end up
requeuing the same request twice.  We can't use the send_complete
completion to tell if everything is ok because we hold the tx_lock
during send, so the timeout stuff will block waiting to mark the socket
dead, and we could be marked complete and still requeue.  Instead add a
flag to the socket so we know whether we've been requeued yet.

This change adds LOOP_SET_BLOCK_SIZE as one of the supported ioctls
in lo_compat_ioctl. It only takes an unsigned long argument, and
in practice a 32-bit value works fine.

We have
  struct drbd_requests { ... struct bio *private_bio;  ... }
to hold a bio clone for local submission.

On local IO completion, we put that bio, and in case we want to use the
result later, we overload that member to hold the ERR_PTR() of the
completion result,

Which, before v4.3, used to be the passed in "int error",
so we could first bio_put(), then assign.

v4.3-rc1~100^2~21 4246a0b63bd8 block: add a bi_error field to struct bio
changed that:
  	bio_put(req-&gt;private_bio);
 -	req-&gt;private_bio = ERR_PTR(error);
 +	req-&gt;private_bio = ERR_PTR(bio-&gt;bi_error);

Which introduces an access after free,
because it was non obvious that req-&gt;private_bio == bio.

Impact of that was mostly unnoticable, because we only use that value
in a multiple-failure case, and even then map any "unexpected" error
code to EIO, so worst case we could potentially mask a more specific
error with EIO in a multiple failure case.

Unless the pointed to memory region was unmapped, as is the case with
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC, in which case this results in

  BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request

v4.13-rc1~70^2~75 4e4cbee93d56 block: switch bios to blk_status_t
changes it further to
  	bio_put(req-&gt;private_bio);
  	req-&gt;private_bio = ERR_PTR(blk_status_to_errno(bio-&gt;bi_status));

And blk_status_to_errno() now contains a WARN_ON_ONCE() for unexpected
values, which catches this "sometimes", if the memory has been reused
quickly enough for other things.

Should also go into stable since 4.3, with the trivial change around 4.13.

Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
 "Small set of fixes for this series. Mostly just minor fixes, the only
  oddball in here is the sg change.

  The sg change came out of the stall fix for NVMe, where we added a
  mempool and limited us to a single page allocation. CONFIG_SG_DEBUG
  sort-of ruins that, since we'd need to account for that. That's
  actually a generic problem, since lots of drivers need to allocate SG
  lists. So this just removes support for CONFIG_SG_DEBUG, which I added
  back in 2007 and to my knowledge it was never useful.

  Anyway, outside of that, this pull contains:

   - clone of request with special payload fix (Bart)

   - drbd discard handling fix (Bart)

   - SATA blk-mq stall fix (me)

   - chunk size fix (Keith)

   - double free nvme rdma fix (Sagi)"
