Fix Smatch-detected error:
drivers/md/dm-zoned-target.c:1073 dmz_iterate_devices()
error: uninitialized symbol 'r'.
Smatch detects a possible use of the uninitialized variable 'r' in
dmz_iterate_devices() because if dmz->nr_ddevs is zero, the loop is
skipped and 'r' is returned without being set, leading to undefined
behavior.
Initialize 'r' to 0 before the loop. This ensures that if there are no
devices to iterate over, the function still returns a defined value.

The support for asynchronous hashes in dm-verity has outlived its
usefulness. It adds significant code complexity and opportunity for
bugs. I don't know of anyone using it in practice. (The original
submitter of the code possibly was, but that was 8 years ago.) Data I
recently collected for en/decryption shows that using off-CPU crypto
"accelerators" is consistently much slower than the CPU
(https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250704070322.20692-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/),
even on CPUs that lack dedicated cryptographic instructions. Similar
results are likely to be seen for hashing.
I already removed support for asynchronous hashes from fsverity two
years ago, and no one ever complained.
Moreover, neither dm-verity, fsverity, nor fscrypt has ever actually
used the asynchronous crypto algorithms in a truly asynchronous manner.
The lack of interest in such optimizations provides further evidence
that it's only the CPU-based crypto that actually matters.
Historically, it's also been common for people to forget to enable the
optimized SHA-256 code, which could contribute to an off-CPU crypto
engine being perceived as more useful than it really is. In 6.16 I
fixed that: the optimized SHA-256 code is now enabled by default.
Therefore, let's drop the support for asynchronous hashes in dm-verity.
Tested with verity-compat-test.

Commit a1fd37f978 ("md: Don't wait for MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED for
HOT_REMOVE_DISK ioctl") introduced a regression in the md_cluster
module. (Failed cases 02r1_Manage_re-add & 02r10_Manage_re-add)
Consider a 2-node cluster:
- node1 set faulty & remove command on a disk.
- node2 must correctly update the array metadata.
Before a1fd37f978, on node1, the delay between msg:METADATA_UPDATED
(triggered by faulty) and msg:REMOVE was sufficient for node2 to
reload the disk info (written by node1).
After a1fd37f978, node1 no longer waits between faulty and remove,
causing it to send msg:REMOVE while node2 is still reloading disk info.
This often results in node2 failing to remove the faulty disk.
== how to trigger ==
set up a 2-node cluster (node1 & node2) with disks vdc & vdd.
on node1:
mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -b clustered -n2 /dev/vdc /dev/vdd --assume-clean
ssh node2-ip mdadm -A /dev/md0 /dev/vdc /dev/vdd
mdadm --manage /dev/md0 --fail /dev/vdc --remove /dev/vdc
check array status on both nodes with "mdadm -D /dev/md0".
node1 output:

- 0 0 0 removed
1 254 48 1 active sync /dev/vdd
node2 output:

- 0 0 0 removed

Commit 9e59d60976 ("md: call del_gendisk in control path") moves
setting MD_DELETED from __mddev_put() to do_md_stop(), however, for the
case create on open, mddev can be freed without do_md_stop():
1) open
md_probe
md_alloc_and_put
md_alloc
mddev_alloc
atomic_set(&mddev->active, 1);
mddev->hold_active = UNTIL_IOCTL
mddev_put
atomic_dec_and_test(&mddev->active)
if (mddev->hold_active)
-> active is 0, hold_active is set
md_open
mddev_get
atomic_inc(&mddev->active);
2) ioctl that is not STOP_ARRAY, for example, GET_ARRAY_INFO:
md_ioctl
mddev->hold_active = 0
3) close
md_release
mddev_put(mddev);
atomic_dec_and_lock(&mddev->active, &all_mddevs_lock)
__mddev_put
-> hold_active is cleared, mddev will be freed
queue_work(md_misc_wq, &mddev->del_work)
Now that MD_DELETED is not set, before mddev is freed by
mddev_delayed_delete(), md_open can still succeed and break mddev
lifetime, causing mddev->kobj refcount underflow or mddev uaf
problem.
Fix this problem by setting MD_DELETED before queuing del_work.

Pull vfs 'protection info' updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the new FS_IOC_GETLBMD_CAP ioctl() to query metadata and
protection info (PI) capabilities. This ioctl returns information
about the files integrity profile. This is useful for userspace
applications to understand a files end-to-end data protection support
and configure the I/O accordingly.
For now this interface is only supported by block devices. However the
design and placement of this ioctl in generic FS ioctl space allows us
to extend it to work over files as well. This maybe useful when
filesystems start supporting PI-aware layouts.
A new structure struct logical_block_metadata_cap is introduced, which
contains the following fields:
- lbmd_flags:
bitmask of logical block metadata capability flags
- lbmd_interval:
the amount of data described by each unit of logical block metadata
- lbmd_size:
size in bytes of the logical block metadata associated with each
interval
- lbmd_opaque_size:
size in bytes of the opaque block tag associated with each interval
- lbmd_opaque_offset:
offset in bytes of the opaque block tag within the logical block

- lbmd_pi_storage_tag_size:
size in bytes of the T10 PI storage tag
The internal logic to fetch the capability is encapsulated in a helper
function blk_get_meta_cap(), which uses the blk_integrity profile
associated with the device. The ioctl returns -EOPNOTSUPP, if
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY is not enabled"

Pull fallocate updates from Christian Brauner:
"fallocate() currently supports creating preallocated files
efficiently. However, on most filesystems fallocate() will preallocate
blocks in an unwriten state even if FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is specified.
The extent state must later be converted to a written state when the
user writes data into this range, which can trigger numerous metadata
changes and journal I/O. This may leads to significant write
amplification and performance degradation in synchronous write mode.
At the moment, the only method to avoid this is to create an empty
file and write zero data into it (for example, using 'dd' with a large
block size). However, this method is slow and consumes a considerable
amount of disk bandwidth.
Now that more and more flash-based storage devices are available it is
possible to efficiently write zeros to SSDs using the unmap write
zeroes command if the devices do not write physical zeroes to the
media.
For example, if SCSI SSDs support the UMMAP bit or NVMe SSDs support
the DEAC bit[1], the write zeroes command does not write actual data
to the device, instead, NVMe converts the zeroed range to a
deallocated state, which works fast and consumes almost no disk write
bandwidth.
This series implements the BLK_FEAT_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP feature and
BLK_FLAG_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP_DISABLED flag for SCSI, NVMe and
device-mapper drivers, and add the FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES and
STATX_ATTR_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP support for ext4 and raw bdev devices.
fallocate() is subsequently extended with the FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES
flag. FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES zeroes a specified file range in such a
way that subsequent writes to that range do not require further
changes to the file mapping metadata. This flag is beneficial for
subsequent pure overwriting within this range, as it can save on block
allocation and, consequently, significant metadata changes"

Commit 2df7168717 ("dm: Always split write BIOs to zoned device
limits") updates the device-mapper driver to perform splits for the
write BIOs. However, it did not address the cases where DM targets do
not emulate zone append, such as in the cases of dm-linear or dm-flakey.
For these targets, when the write BIOs span across zone boundaries, they
trigger WARN_ON_ONCE(bio_straddles_zones(bio)) in
blk_zone_wplug_handle_write(). This results in I/O errors. The errors
are reproduced by running blktests test case zbd/004 using zoned
dm-linear or dm-flakey devices.
To avoid the I/O errors, handle the write BIOs regardless whether DM
targets emulate zone append or not, so that all write BIOs are split at
zone boundaries. For that purpose, drop the check for zone append
emulation in dm_zone_bio_needs_split(). Its argument 'md' is no longer
used then drop it also.

Currently we use min io size as the chunk size when deciding on the
atomic write size limits - see blk_stack_atomic_writes_head().
The limit min_io size is not a reliable value to store the chunk size, as
this may be mutated by the block stacking code. Such an example would be
for the min io size less than the physical block size, and the min io size
is raised to the physical block size - see blk_stack_limits().
The block stacking limits will rely on chunk_sectors in future,
so set this value (to the chunk size).

Now del_gendisk and put_disk are called asynchronously in workqueue work.
The asynchronous way has a problem that the device node can still exist
after mdadm --stop command returns in a short window. So udev rule can
open this device node and create the struct mddev in kernel again. So put
del_gendisk in control path and still leave put_disk in md_kobj_release
to avoid uaf of gendisk.
Function del_gendisk can't be called with reconfig_mutex. If it's called
with reconfig mutex, a deadlock can happen. del_gendisk waits all sysfs
files access to finish and sysfs file access waits reconfig mutex. So
put del_gendisk after releasing reconfig mutex.
But there is still a window that sysfs can be accessed between mddev_unlock
and del_gendisk. So some actions (add disk, change level, .e.g) can happen
which lead unexpected results. MD_DELETED is used to resolve this problem.
MD_DELETED is set before releasing reconfig mutex and it should be checked
for these sysfs access which need reconfig mutex. For sysfs access which
don't need reconfig mutex, del_gendisk will wait them to finish.
But it doesn't need to do this in function mddev_lock_nointr. There are
ten places that call it.
* Five of them are in dm raid which we don't need to care. MD_DELETED is
only used for md raid.
* stop_sync_thread, md_do_sync and md_start_sync are related sync request,
and it needs to wait sync thread to finish before stopping an array.
* md_ioctl: md_open is called before md_ioctl, so ->openers is added. It
will fail to stop the array. So it doesn't need to check MD_DELETED here
* md_set_readonly:
It needs to call mddev_set_closing_and_sync_blockdev when setting readonly
or read_auto. So it will fail to stop the array too because MD_CLOSING is

Remove the external bitmap check as the statistics should be

Return -EINVAL only for invalid bitmap with no storage (neither in

But, the code does not adhere to the above, as it does only check for

DM targets must not split zone append and write operations using
dm_accept_partial_bio() as doing so is forbidden for zone append BIOs,
breaks zone append emulation using regular write BIOs and potentially
creates deadlock situations with queue freeze operations.
Modify dm_accept_partial_bio() to add missing BUG_ON() checks for all
these cases, that is, check that the BIO is a write or write zeroes
operation. This change packs all the zone related checks together under

Read and write operations issued to a dm-crypt target may be split
according to the dm-crypt internal limits defined by the max_read_size
and max_write_size module parameters (default is 128 KB). The intent is
to improve processing time of large BIOs by splitting them into smaller
operations that can be parallelized on different CPUs.
For zoned dm-crypt targets, this BIO splitting is still done but without
the parallel execution to ensure that the issuing order of write
operations to the underlying devices remains sequential. However, the
splitting itself causes other problems:
1) Since dm-crypt relies on the block layer zone write plugging to
handle zone append emulation using regular write operations, the
reminder of a split write BIO will always be plugged into the target
zone write plugged. Once the on-going write BIO finishes, this
reminder BIO is unplugged and issued from the zone write plug work.
If this reminder BIO itself needs to be split, the reminder will be
re-issued and plugged again, but that causes a call to a
blk_queue_enter(), which may block if a queue freeze operation was
initiated. This results in a deadlock as DM submission still holds
BIOs that the queue freeze side is waiting for.
2) dm-crypt relies on the emulation done by the block layer using
regular write operations for processing zone append operations. This
still requires to properly return the written sector as the BIO
sector of the original BIO. However, this can be done correctly only
and only if there is a single clone BIO used for processing the
original zone append operation issued by the user. If the size of a
zone append operation is larger than dm-crypt max_write_size, then
the orginal BIO will be split and processed as a chain of regular
write operations. Such chaining result in an incorrect written sector
being returned to the zone append issuer using the original BIO
sector. This in turn results in file system data corruptions using
xfs or btrfs.
Fix this by modifying get_max_request_size() to always return the size
of the BIO to avoid it being split with dm_accpet_partial_bio() in
crypt_map(). get_max_request_size() is renamed to
get_max_request_sectors() to clarify the unit of the value returned
and its interface is changed to take a struct dm_target pointer and a
pointer to the struct bio being processed. In addition to this change,
to ensure that crypt_alloc_buffer() works correctly, set the dm-crypt
device max_hw_sectors limit to be at most
BIO_MAX_VECS << PAGE_SECTORS_SHIFT (1 MB with a 4KB page architecture).
This forces DM core to split write BIOs before passing them to
crypt_map(), and thus guaranteeing that dm-crypt can always accept an
entire write BIO without needing to split it.
This change does not have any effect on the read path of dm-crypt. Read
operations can still be split and the BIO fragments processed in
parallel. There is also no impact on the performance of the write path
given that all zone write BIOs were already processed inline instead of
in parallel.
This change also does not affect in any way regular dm-crypt block
devices.

Any zoned DM target that requires zone append emulation will use the
block layer zone write plugging. In such case, DM target drivers must
not split BIOs using dm_accept_partial_bio() as doing so can potentially
lead to deadlocks with queue freeze operations. Regular write operations
used to emulate zone append operations also cannot be split by the
target driver as that would result in an invalid writen sector value
return using the BIO sector.
In order for zoned DM target drivers to avoid such incorrect BIO
splitting, we must ensure that large BIOs are split before being passed
to the map() function of the target, thus guaranteeing that the
limits for the mapped device are not exceeded.
dm-crypt and dm-flakey are the only target drivers supporting zoned
devices and using dm_accept_partial_bio().
In the case of dm-crypt, this function is used to split BIOs to the
internal max_write_size limit (which will be suppressed in a different
patch). However, since crypt_alloc_buffer() uses a bioset allowing only
up to BIO_MAX_VECS (256) vectors in a BIO. The dm-crypt device
max_segments limit, which is not set and so default to BLK_MAX_SEGMENTS
(128), must thus be respected and write BIOs split accordingly.
In the case of dm-flakey, since zone append emulation is not required,
the block layer zone write plugging is not used and no splitting of BIOs
required.
Modify the function dm_zone_bio_needs_split() to use the block layer
helper function bio_needs_zone_write_plugging() to force a call to
bio_split_to_limits() in dm_split_and_process_bio(). This allows DM
target drivers to avoid using dm_accept_partial_bio() for write
operations on zoned DM devices.

The generic bottom-up min_heap implementation causes performance
regression in invalidate_buckets_lru(), a hot path in bcache. Before the
cache is fully populated, new_bucket_prio() often returns zero, leading to
many equal comparisons. In such cases, bottom-up sift_down performs up to
2 * log2(n) comparisons, while the original top-down approach completes
with just O() comparisons, resulting in a measurable performance gap.
The performance degradation is further worsened by the non-inlined
min_heap API functions introduced in commit 92a8b224b8 ("lib/min_heap:
introduce non-inline versions of min heap API functions"), adding function
call overhead to this critical path.
As reported by Robert, bcache now suffers from latency spikes, with P100

These regressions degrade bcache's effectiveness as a low-latency cache

Patch series "bcache: Revert min_heap migration due to performance
regression".
This patch series reverts the migration of bcache from its original heap
implementation to the generic min_heap library. While the original change
aimed to simplify the code and improve maintainability, it introduced a
severe performance regression in real-world scenarios.
As reported by Robert, systems using bcache now suffer from periodic
latency spikes, with P100 (max) latency increasing from 600 ms to 2.4
seconds every 5 minutes. This degrades bcache's value as a low-latency
caching layer, and leads to frequent timeouts and application stalls in
production environments.
The primary cause of this regression is the behavior of the generic
min_heap implementation's bottom-up sift_down, which performs up to 2 *
log2(n) comparisons when many elements are equal. The original top-down
variant used by bcache only required O(1) comparisons in such cases. The
issue was further exacerbated by commit 92a8b224b8 ("lib/min_heap:
introduce non-inline versions of min heap API functions"), which
introduced non-inlined versions of the min_heap API, adding function call
overhead to a performance-critical hot path.
This patch (of 3):
This reverts commit 3d8a9a1c35.
Although removing the custom swap function simplified the code, this
change is part of a broader migration to the generic min_heap API that
introduced significant performance regressions in bcache.
As reported by Robert, bcache now suffers from latency spikes, with P100
(max) latency increasing from 600 ms to 2.4 seconds every 5 minutes.
These regressions degrade bcache's effectiveness as a low-latency cache
layer and lead to frequent timeouts and application stalls in production
environments.
This revert is part of a series of changes to restore previous performance
by undoing the min_heap transition.

This commit doesn't fix any bug, it is just code cleanup. Use the
function format_dev_t instead of sprintf, because format_dev_t does the
same thing.
Remove the useless memset call.
An unsigned integer can take at most 10 digits, so extend the array size
to 22. (note that because the range of minor and major numbers is limited,
the size 16 could not be exceeded, thus this function couldn't write
beyond string end)

There's a tiny race condition in dm-mirror. The functions queue_bio and
write_callback grab a spinlock, add a bio to the list, drop the spinlock
and wake up the mirrord thread that processes bios in the list.
It may be possible that the mirrord thread processes the bio just after
spin_unlock_irqrestore is called, before wakeup_mirrord. This spurious
wake-up is normally harmless, however if the device mapper device is
unloaded just after the bio was processed, it may be possible that
wakeup_mirrord(ms) uses invalid "ms" pointer.
Fix this bug by moving wakeup_mirrord inside the spinlock.

Reported an IO hang and unrecoverable error in our testing environment.
After careful research, we found that bch_allocator_thread is stuck,
the call stack is as follows:
[<0>] __switch_to+0xbc/0x108
[<0>] __closure_sync+0x7c/0xbc [bcache]
[<0>] bch_prio_write+0x430/0x448 [bcache]
[<0>] bch_allocator_thread+0xb44/0xb70 [bcache]
[<0>] kthread+0x124/0x130
[<0>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18
Moreover, the RESERVE_BTREE type bucket slot are empty and journal_full
occurs at the same time.
When the cache disk is first used, the sb.nJournal_buckets defaults to 0.
So, only 8 RESERVE_BTREE type buckets are reserved. If RESERVE_BTREE type
buckets used up or btree_check_reserve() failed when request handle btree
split, the request will be repeatedly retried and wait for alloc thread to
fill in.
After the alloc thread fills the buckets, it will call bch_prio_write().
If journal_full occurs simultaneously at this time, journal_reclaim() and
btree_flush_write() will be called sequentially, journal_write cannot be
completed.
This is a low probability event, we believe that reserve more RESERVE_BTREE
buckets can avoid the worst situation.

Grabbing the work_mutex keeps probe_active_paths() from running at the
same time as multipath_message(). The only messages that could interfere
with probing the paths are "disable_group", "enable_group", and
"switch_group". These messages could force multipath to pick a new
pathgroup while probe_active_paths() was probing the current pathgroup.
If the multipath device has a hardware handler, and it switches active
pathgroups while there is outstanding IO to a path device, it's possible
that IO to the path will fail, even if the path would be usable if it
was in the active pathgroup. To avoid this, do not clear the current
pathgroup for the *_group messages while probe_active_paths() is
running. Instead set a flag, and probe_active_paths() will clear the
current pathgroup when it finishes probing the paths. For this to work
correctly, multipath needs to check current_pg before next_pg in
choose_pgpath(), but before this patch next_pg was only ever set when
current_pg was cleared, so this doesn't change the current behavior when
paths aren't being probed. Even with this change, it is still possible
to switch pathgroups while the probe is running, but only if all the
paths have failed, and the probe function will skip them as well in this
case.
If multiple DM_MPATH_PROBE_PATHS requests are received at once, there is
no point in repeatedly issuing test IOs. Instead, the later probes
should wait for the current probe to complete. If current pathgroup is
still the same as the one that was just checked, the other probes should
skip probing and just check the number of valid paths. Finally, probing
the paths should quit early if the multipath device is trying to
suspend, instead of continuing to issue test IOs, delaying the suspend.
While this patch will not change the behavior of existing multipath
users which don't use the DM_MPATH_PROBE_PATHS ioctl, when that ioctl
is used, the behavior of the "disable_group", "enable_group", and
"switch_group" messages can change subtly. When these messages return,
the next IO to the multipath device will no longer be guaranteed to
choose a new pathgroup. Instead, choosing a new pathgroup could be
delayed by an in-progress DM_MPATH_PROBE_PATHS ioctl. The userspace
multipath tools make no assumptions about what will happen to IOs after
sending these messages, so this change will not effect already released
versions of them, even if the DM_MPATH_PROBE_PATHS ioctl is run
alongside them.

If sync_speed is above speed_min, then is_mddev_idle() will be called
for each sync IO to check if the array is idle, and inflight sync_io
will be limited if the array is not idle.
However, while mkfs.ext4 for a large raid5 array while recovery is in
progress, it's found that sync_speed is already above speed_min while
lots of stripes are used for sync IO, causing long delay for mkfs.ext4.
Root cause is the following checking from is_mddev_idle():
t1: submit sync IO: events1 = completed IO - issued sync IO
t2: submit next sync IO: events2 = completed IO - issued sync IO
if (events2 - events1 > 64)
For consequence, the more sync IO issued, the less likely checking will
pass. And when completed normal IO is more than issued sync IO, the
condition will finally pass and is_mddev_idle() will return false,
however, last_events will be updated hence is_mddev_idle() can only
return false once in a while.
Fix this problem by changing the checking as following:
1) mddev doesn't have normal IO completed;
2) mddev doesn't have normal IO inflight;
3) if any member disks is partition, and all other partitions doesn't
have IO completed.
Also change rdev->last_events to unsigned long to cleanup type casting.

derive_sw_secret is needed by fscrypt, while the other operations are

When calling dm_set_device_limits() -> blk_stack_limits() ->

(which corresponds to intermediate target queue limits) does not have
BLK_FEAT_ATOMIC_WRITES set, and so atomic writes can never be enabled.
Typically such a flag would be inherited from the stacked device in

Multipath cannot directly provide failover for ioctls in the kernel
because it doesn't know what each ioctl means and which result could
indicate a path error. Userspace generally knows what the ioctl it
issued means and if it might be a path error, but neither does it know
which path the ioctl took nor does it necessarily have the privileges to
fail a path using the control device.
In order to allow userspace to address this situation, implement a
DM_MPATH_PROBE_PATHS ioctl that prompts the dm-mpath driver to probe all
active paths in the current path group to see whether they still work,
and fail them if not. If this returns success, userspace can retry the
ioctl and expect that the previously hit bad path is now failed (or
working again).
The immediate motivation for this is the use of SG_IO in QEMU for SCSI
passthrough. Following a failed SG_IO ioctl, QEMU will trigger probing
to ensure that all active paths are actually alive, so that retrying
SG_IO at least has a lower chance of failing due to a path error.
However, the problem is broader than just SG_IO (it affects any ioctl),
and if applications need failover support for other ioctls, the same
probing can be used.
This is not implemented on the DM control device, but on the DM mpath
block devices, to allow all users who have access to such a block device
to make use of this interface, specifically to implement failover for
ioctls. For the same reason, it is also unprivileged. Its implementation
is effectively just a bunch of reads, which could already be issued by
userspace, just without any guarantee that all the rights paths are
selected.
The probing implemented here is done fully synchronously path by path;
probing all paths concurrently is left as an improvement for the future.

This adds a 'bool *forward' parameter to .prepare_ioctl, which allows
device mapper targets to accept ioctls to themselves instead of the
underlying device. If the target already fully handled the ioctl, it
sets *forward to false and device mapper won't forward it to the
underlying device any more.
In order for targets to actually know what the ioctl is about and how to
handle it, pass also cmd and arg.
As long as targets restrict themselves to interpreting ioctls of type
DM_IOCTL, this is a backwards compatible change because previously, any
such ioctl would have been passed down through all device mapper layers
until it reached a device that can't understand the ioctl and would
return an error.

Every 30 seconds, dm-bufio evicts all buffers that were not accessed
within the last max_age_seconds, except those pinned in memory via
retain_bytes. By default max_age_seconds is 300 (i.e. 5 minutes), and
retain_bytes is 262144 (i.e. 256 KiB) per dm-bufio client.
This eviction algorithm is much too eager and is also redundant with the
shinker based eviction.
Testing on an Android phone shows that about 30 MB of dm-bufio buffers
(from dm-verity Merkle tree blocks) are loaded at boot time, and then
about 90% of them are suddenly thrown away 5 minutes after boot. This
results in unnecessary Merkle tree I/O later.
Meanwhile, if the system actually encounters memory pressure, testing
also shows that the shrinker is effective at evicting the buffers.
Other major Linux kernel caches, such as the page cache, do not enforce
a maximum age, instead relying on the shrinker.
For these reasons, Android is now setting max_age_seconds to 86400
(i.e. 1 day), which mostly disables it; see
cadad290a7%5E%21/
That is a much better default, but really the maximum age based eviction
should not exist at all. Let's remove it.
Note that this also eliminates the need to run work every 30 seconds,
which is beneficial too.

When using a kthread to delay the IOs, dm-delay would continuously loop,
checking if IOs were ready to submit. It had a cond_resched() call in
the loop, but might still loop hundreds of millions of times waiting for
an IO that was scheduled to be submitted 10s of ms in the future. With
the change to make dm-delay over zoned devices always use kthreads
regardless of the length of the delay, this wasted work only gets worse.
To solve this and still keep roughly the same precision for very short
delays, dm-delay now calls fsleep() for 1/8th of the smallest non-zero
delay it will place on IOs, or 1 ms, whichever is smaller. The reason
that dm-delay doesn't just use the actual expiration time of the next
delayed IO to calculated the sleep time is that delay_dtr() must wait
for the kthread to finish before deleting the table. If a zoned device
with a long delay queued an IO shortly before being suspended and
removed, the IO would be flushed in delay_presuspend(), but the removing
the device would still have to wait for the remainder of the long delay.
This time is now capped at 1 ms.

If a DM device that can pass down zone append commands is stacked on top
of a device that emulates zone append commands, it will allocate zone
append emulation resources, even though it doesn't use them. This is
because the underlying device will have max_hw_zone_append_sectors set
to 0 to request zone append emulation. When the DM device is stacked on
top of it, it will inherit that max_hw_zone_append_sectors limit,
despite being able to pass down zone append bios. Solve this by making

dm_revalidate_zones() only allowed new or previously unzoned devices to
call blk_revalidate_disk_zones(). If the device was already zoned,
disk->nr_zones would always equal md->nr_zones, so dm_revalidate_zones()
returned without doing any work. This would make the zoned settings for
the device not match the new table. If the device had zone write plug
resources, it could run into errors like bdev_zone_is_seq() reading
invalid memory because disk->conv_zones_bitmap was the wrong size.
If the device doesn't have any zone write plug resources, calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will always correctly update device. If
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() fails, it can still overwrite or clear the
current disk->nr_zones value. In this case, DM must restore the previous
value of disk->nr_zones, so that the zoned settings will continue to
match the previous value that it fell back to.
If the device already has zone write plug resources,
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will not correctly update them, if it is
called for arbitrary zoned device changes. Since there is not much need
for this ability, the easiest solution is to disallow any table reloads
that change the zoned settings, for devices that already have zone plug
resources. Specifically, if a device already has zone plug resources
allocated, it can only switch to another zoned table that also emulates
zone append. Also, it cannot change the device size or the zone size. A
device can switch to an error target.

If dm_get_live_table() returned NULL, dm_put_live_table() was never
called. Also, it is possible that md->zone_revalidate_map will change
while calling this function. Only read it once, so that we are always
using the same value. Otherwise we might miss a call to
dm_put_live_table().
Finally, while md->zone_revalidate_map is set and a process is calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() to set up the zone append emulation
resources, it is possible that another process, perhaps triggered by
blkdev_report_zones_ioctl(), will call dm_blk_report_zones(). If
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() fails, these resources can be freed while
the other process is still using them, causing a use-after-free error.
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will only ever be called when initially
setting up the zone append emulation resources, such as when setting up
a zoned dm-crypt table for the first time. Further table swaps will not
set md->zone_revalidate_map or call blk_revalidate_disk_zones().
However it must be called using the new table (referenced by
md->zone_revalidate_map) and the new queue limits while the DM device is
suspended. dm_blk_report_zones() needs some way to distinguish between a
call from blk_revalidate_disk_zones(), which must be allowed to use
md->zone_revalidate_map to access this not yet activated table, and all
other calls to dm_blk_report_zones(), which should not be allowed while
the device is suspended and cannot use md->zone_revalidate_map, since
the zone resources might be freed by the process currently calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones().
Solve this by tracking the process that sets md->zone_revalidate_map in
dm_revalidate_zones() and only allowing that process to make use of it
in dm_blk_report_zones().
