      ibmvscsis: Add SGL limit · b22bc278
      Bryant G. Ly authored 
      This patch adds internal LIO sgl limit since the driver already
sets a max transfer limit on transport layer of 1MB to the client.

      target: Fix COMPARE_AND_WRITE ref leak for non GOOD status · 9b2792c3
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      This patch addresses a long standing bug where the commit phase
of COMPARE_AND_WRITE would result in a se_cmd->cmd_kref reference
leak if se_cmd->scsi_status returned non SAM_STAT_GOOD.

This would manifest first as a lost SCSI response, and eventual
hung task during fabric driver logout or re-login, as existing
shutdown logic waited for the COMPARE_AND_WRITE se_cmd->cmd_kref
to reach zero.

To address this bug, compare_and_write_post() has been changed
to drop the incorrect !cmd->scsi_status conditional that was
preventing *post_ret = 1 for being set during non SAM_STAT_GOOD
status.

This patch has been tested with SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION status
from normal target_complete_cmd() callback path, as well as the
incoming __target_execute_cmd() submission failure path when
se_cmd->execute_cmd() returns non zero status.

      target: Fix multi-session dynamic se_node_acl double free OOPs · 01d4d673
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      This patch addresses a long-standing bug with multi-session
(eg: iscsi-target + iser-target) se_node_acl dynamic free
withini transport_deregister_session().

This bug is caused when a storage endpoint is configured with
demo-mode (generate_node_acls = 1 + cache_dynamic_acls = 1)
initiators, and initiator login creates a new dynamic node acl
and attaches two sessions to it.

After that, demo-mode for the storage instance is disabled via
configfs (generate_node_acls = 0 + cache_dynamic_acls = 0) and
the existing dynamic acl is never converted to an explicit ACL.

The end result is dynamic acl resources are released twice when
the sessions are shutdown in transport_deregister_session().

If the storage instance is not changed to disable demo-mode,
or the dynamic acl is converted to an explict ACL, or there
is only a single session associated with the dynamic ACL,
the bug is not triggered.

To address this big, move the release of dynamic se_node_acl
memory into target_complete_nacl() so it's only freed once
when se_node_acl->acl_kref reaches zero.

(Drop unnecessary list_del_init usage - HCH)

      target: Fix early transport_generic_handle_tmr abort scenario · c54eeffb
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      This patch fixes a bug where incoming task management requests
can be explicitly aborted during an active LUN_RESET, but who's
struct work_struct are canceled in-flight before execution.

This occurs when core_tmr_drain_tmr_list() invokes cancel_work_sync()
for the incoming se_tmr_req->task_cmd->work, resulting in cmd->work
for target_tmr_work() never getting invoked and the aborted TMR
waiting indefinately within transport_wait_for_tasks().

To address this case, perform a CMD_T_ABORTED check early in
transport_generic_handle_tmr(), and invoke the normal path via
transport_cmd_check_stop_to_fabric() to complete any TMR kthreads
blocked waiting for CMD_T_STOP in transport_wait_for_tasks().

Also, move the TRANSPORT_ISTATE_PROCESSING assignment earlier
into transport_generic_handle_tmr() so the existing check in
core_tmr_drain_tmr_list() avoids attempting abort the incoming
se_tmr_req->task_cmd->work if it has already been queued into
se_device->tmr_wq.

      target: Use correct SCSI status during EXTENDED_COPY exception · 0583c261
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      This patch adds the missing target_complete_cmd() SCSI status
parameter change in target_xcopy_do_work(), that was originally
missing in commit 926317de.

It correctly propigates up the correct SCSI status during
EXTENDED_COPY exception cases, instead of always using the
hardcoded SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION from original code.

This is required for ESX host environments that expect to
hit SAM_STAT_RESERVATION_CONFLICT for certain scenarios,
and SAM_STAT_CHECK_CONDITION results in non-retriable
status for these cases.

      target: Don't BUG_ON during NodeACL dynamic -> explicit conversion · 391e2a6d
      Nicholas Bellinger authored 
      After the v4.2+ RCU conversion to se_node_acl->lun_entry_hlist,
a BUG_ON() was added in core_enable_device_list_for_node() to
detect when the located orig->se_lun_acl contains an existing
se_lun_acl pointer reference.

However, this scenario can happen when a dynamically generated
NodeACL is being converted to an explicit NodeACL, when the
explicit NodeACL contains a different LUN mapping than the
default provided by the WWN endpoint.

So instead of triggering BUG_ON(), go ahead and fail instead
following the original pre RCU conversion logic.

      mm, fs: check for fatal signals in do_generic_file_read() · 5abf186a
      Michal Hocko authored 
      do_generic_file_read() can be told to perform a large request from
userspace.  If the system is under OOM and the reading task is the OOM
victim then it has an access to memory reserves and finishing the full
request can lead to the full memory depletion which is dangerous.  Make
sure we rather go with a short read and allow the killed task to
terminate.

      Tetsuo has noticed that an OOM stress test which performs large write
requests can cause the full memory reserves depletion.  He has tracked
this down to the following path

the oom victim has access to all memory reserves to make a forward
progress to exit easier.  But iomap_file_buffered_write and other
callers of iomap_apply loop to complete the full request.  We need to
check for fatal signals and back off with a short write instead.

As the iomap_apply delegates all the work down to the actor we have to
hook into those.  All callers that work with the page cache are calling
iomap_write_begin so we will check for signals there.  dax_iomap_actor
has to handle the situation explicitly because it copies data to the
userspace directly.  Other callers like iomap_page_mkwrite work on a
single page or iomap_fiemap_actor do not allocate memory based on the
given len.

      base/memory, hotplug: fix a kernel oops in show_valid_zones() · a96dfddb
      Toshi Kani authored 
      Reading a sysfs "memoryN/valid_zones" file leads to the following oops
when the first page of a range is not backed by struct page.
show_valid_zones() assumes that 'start_pfn' is always valid for
page_zone().

 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffea017a000000
 IP: show_valid_zones+0x6f/0x160

This issue may happen on x86-64 systems with 64GiB or more memory since
their memory block size is bumped up to 2GiB.  [1] An example of such
systems is desribed below.  0x3240000000 is only aligned by 1GiB and
this memory block starts from 0x3200000000, which is not backed by
struct page.

 BIOS-e820: [mem 0x0000003240000000-0x000000603fffffff] usable

Since test_pages_in_a_zone() already checks holes, fix this issue by
extending this function to return 'valid_start' and 'valid_end' for a
given range.  show_valid_zones() then proceeds with the valid range.

      mm/memory_hotplug.c: check start_pfn in test_pages_in_a_zone() · deb88a2a
      Toshi Kani authored 
      Patch series "fix a kernel oops when reading sysfs valid_zones", v2.

A sysfs memory file is created for each 2GiB memory block on x86-64 when
the system has 64GiB or more memory.  [1] When the start address of a
memory block is not backed by struct page, i.e.  a memory range is not
aligned by 2GiB, reading its 'valid_zones' attribute file leads to a
kernel oops.  This issue was observed on multiple x86-64 systems with
more than 64GiB of memory.  This patch-set fixes this issue.

Patch 1 first fixes an issue in test_pages_in_a_zone(), which does not
test the start section.

Patch 2 then fixes the kernel oops by extending test_pages_in_a_zone()
to return valid [start, end).

Note for stable kernels: The memory block size change was made by commit
bdee237c ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on large-memory x86-64
systems"), which was accepted to 3.9.  However, this patch-set depends
on (and fixes) the change to test_pages_in_a_zone() made by commit
5f0f2887 ("mm/memory_hotplug.c: check for missing sections in
test_pages_in_a_zone()"), which was accepted to 4.4.

So, I recommend that we backport it up to 4.4.

[1] 'Commit bdee237c ("x86: mm: Use 2GB memory block size on
    large-memory x86-64 systems")'

This patch (of 2):

test_pages_in_a_zone() does not check 'start_pfn' when it is aligned by
section since 'sec_end_pfn' is set equal to 'pfn'.  Since this function
is called for testing the range of a sysfs memory file, 'start_pfn' is
always aligned by section.

Fix it by properly setting 'sec_end_pfn' to the next section pfn.

Also make sure that this function returns 1 only when the range belongs
to a zone.

although some config would have '-fno-pic' flag in the KBUILD_CFLAGS.

This patch passes the KBUILD_CFLAGS to the check script so that the

The iput() from atomic context was a bad idea: if after igrab() somebody
else calls iput() and we left with the last inode reference, our iput()
would lead to inode eviction and therefore sleeping.

This patch should fix the situation.

      zswap: disable changing params if init fails · d7b028f5
      Dan Streetman authored 
      Add zswap_init_failed bool that prevents changing any of the module
params, if init_zswap() fails, and set zswap_enabled to false.  Change
'enabled' param to a callback, and check zswap_init_failed before
allowing any change to 'enabled', 'zpool', or 'compressor' params.

Any driver that is built-in to the kernel will not be unloaded if its
init function returns error, and its module params remain accessible for
users to change via sysfs.  Since zswap uses param callbacks, which
assume that zswap has been initialized, changing the zswap params after
a failed initialization will result in WARNING due to the param
callbacks expecting a pool to already exist.  This prevents that by
immediately exiting any of the param callbacks if initialization failed.

This was reported here:
  https://marc.info/?l=linux-mm&m=147004228125528&w=4

And fixes this WARNING:
  [  429.723476] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5140 at mm/zswap.c:503 __zswap_pool_current+0x56/0x60

The warning is just noise, and not serious.  However, when init fails,
zswap frees all its percpu dstmem pages and its kmem cache.  The kmem
cache might be serious, if kmem_cache_alloc(NULL, gfp) has problems; but
the percpu dstmem pages are definitely a problem, as they're used as
temporary buffer for compressed pages before copying into place in the
zpool.

If the user does get zswap enabled after an init failure, then zswap
will likely Oops on the first page it tries to compress (or worse, start
corrupting memory).

Fixes: 90b0fc26 ("zswap: change zpool/compressor at runtime")

      vhost: fix initialization for vq->is_le · cda8bba0
      Halil Pasic authored 
      Currently, under certain circumstances vhost_init_is_le does just a part
of the initialization job, and depends on vhost_reset_is_le being called
too. For this reason vhost_vq_init_access used to call vhost_reset_is_le
when vq->private_data is NULL. This is not only counter intuitive, but
also real a problem because it breaks vhost_net. The bug was introduced to
vhost_net with commit 2751c988 ("vhost: cross-endian support for
legacy devices"). The symptom is corruption of the vq's used.idx field
(virtio) after VHOST_NET_SET_BACKEND was issued as a part of the vhost
shutdown on a vq with pending descriptors.

Let us make sure the outcome of vhost_init_is_le never depend on the state
it is actually supposed to initialize, and fix virtio_net by removing the
reset from vhost_vq_init_access.

With the above, there is no reason for vhost_reset_is_le to do just half
of the job. Let us make vhost_reset_is_le reinitialize is_le.
