showing that we never complete that read request. The reason is that
the completion setup is racy - it initializes the completion event
AFTER submitting the IO, which means that the IO could complete
before/during the init. If it does, we are passing garbage to
complete() and we may sleep forever waiting for the event to
occur.

commit fef912bf860e upstream.
commit 98af4d4df889 upstream.

I got a report from Howard Chen that he saw zram and sysfs race(ie,
zram block device file is created but sysfs for it isn't yet)
when he tried to create new zram devices via hotadd knob.

v4.20 kernel fixes it by [1, 2] but it's too large size to merge
into -stable so this patch fixes the problem by registering defualt
group by Greg KH's approach[3].

This patch should be applied to every stable tree [3.16+] currently
existing from kernel.org because the problem was introduced at 2.6.37
by [4].

commit f92898e7f32e3533bfd95be174044bc349d416ca upstream.

If a block device is hot-added when we are out of grants,
gnttab_grant_foreign_access fails with -ENOSPC (log message "28
granting access to ring page") in this code path:

  talk_to_blkback -&gt;
	setup_blkring -&gt;
		xenbus_grant_ring -&gt;
			gnttab_grant_foreign_access

and the failing path in talk_to_blkback sets the driver_data to NULL:

 destroy_blkring:
        blkif_free(info, 0);

        mutex_lock(&amp;blkfront_mutex);
        free_info(info);
        mutex_unlock(&amp;blkfront_mutex);

        dev_set_drvdata(&amp;dev-&gt;dev, NULL);

This results in a NULL pointer BUG when blkfront_remove and blkif_free
try to access the failing device's NULL struct blkfront_info.

If we fail to allocate the request queue for a disk, we still need to
free that disk, not just the previous ones. Additionally, we need to
cleanup the previous request queues.

Move queue allocation next to disk allocation to fix a couple of issues:

- If add_disk() hasn't been called, we should clear disk-&gt;queue before
  calling put_disk().
- If we fail to allocate a request queue, we still need to put all of
  the disks, not just the ones that we allocated queues for.

[ Upstream commit d61b7f972dab2a7d187c38254845546dfc8eed85 ]

A user noticed that write performance was horrible over loopback and we
traced it to an inversion of when we need to set MSG_MORE.  It should be
set when we have more bvec's to send, not when we are on the last bvec.
This patch made the test go from 20 iops to 78k iops.

<title>floppy: Do not copy a kernel pointer to user memory in FDGETPRM ioctl</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 65eea8edc315589d6c993cf12dbb5d0e9ef1fe4e upstream.

The final field of a floppy_struct is the field "name", which is a pointer
to a string in kernel memory.  The kernel pointer should not be copied to
user memory.  The FDGETPRM ioctl copies a floppy_struct to user memory,
including this "name" field.  This pointer cannot be used by the user
and it will leak a kernel address to user-space, which will reveal the
location of kernel code and data and undermine KASLR protection.

Model this code after the compat ioctl which copies the returned data
to a previously cleared temporary structure on the stack (excluding the
name pointer) and copy out to userspace from there.  As we already have
an inparam union with an appropriate member and that memory is already
cleared even for read only calls make use of that as a temporary store.

Based on an initial patch by Brian Belleville.

syzbot is hitting WARN() triggered by memory allocation fault
injection [1] because loop module is calling sysfs_remove_group()
when sysfs_create_group() failed.
Fix this by remembering whether sysfs_create_group() succeeded.

commit d2ac838e4cd7e5e9891ecc094d626734b0245c99 upstream.

Refactor the validation code used in LOOP_SET_FD so it is also used in
LOOP_CHANGE_FD.  Otherwise it is possible to construct a set of loop
devices that all refer to each other.  This can lead to a infinite
loop in starting with "while (is_loop_device(f)) .." in loop_set_fd().

Fix this by refactoring out the validation code and using it for
LOOP_CHANGE_FD as well as LOOP_SET_FD.

<id>urn:sha1:f9b1cd6e7490e3aed85b915cd4a5e3a10ac2bd58</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 64dafbc9530c10300acffc57fae3269d95fa8f93 upstream.

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.
