Commit 61697a6abd ("dm: eliminate 'split_discard_bios' flag from DM
target interface") incorrectly removed code from
__send_changing_extent_only() that is required to impose a per-target IO
boundary on IO that exceeds max_io_len_target_boundary(). Otherwise
"special" IO (e.g. DISCARD, WRITE SAME, WRITE ZEROES) can write beyond
where allowed.
Fix this by restoring the max_io_len_target_boundary() limit in
__send_changing_extent_only()

Pankaj reports that starting with commit ad428cdb52 "dax: Check the
end of the block-device capacity with dax_direct_access()" device-mapper
no longer allows dax operation. This results from the stricter checks in
__bdev_dax_supported() that validate that the start and end of a
block-device map to the same 'pagemap' instance.
Teach the dax-core and device-mapper to validate the 'pagemap' on a
per-target basis. This is accomplished by refactoring the
bdev_dax_supported() internals into generic_fsdax_supported() which
takes a sector range to validate. Consequently generic_fsdax_supported()
is suitable to be used in a device-mapper ->iterate_devices() callback.
A new ->dax_supported() operation is added to allow composite devices to
split and route upper-level bdev_dax_supported() requests.

Storage devices which report supporting discard commands like
WRITE_SAME_16 with unmap, but reject discard commands sent to the
storage device. This is a clear storage firmware bug but it doesn't
change the fact that should a program cause discards to be sent to a
multipath device layered on this buggy storage, all paths can end up
failed at the same time from the discards, causing possible I/O loss.
The first discard to a path will fail with Illegal Request, Invalid
field in cdb, e.g.:
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 FAILED Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 Sense Key : Illegal Request [current]
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 Add. Sense: Invalid field in cdb
kernel: sd 8:0:8:19: [sdfn] tag#0 CDB: Write same(16) 93 08 00 00 00 00 00 a0 08 00 00 00 80 00 00 00
kernel: blk_update_request: critical target error, dev sdfn, sector 10487808
The SCSI layer converts this to the BLK_STS_TARGET error number, the sd
device disables its support for discard on this path, and because of the
BLK_STS_TARGET error multipath fails the discard without failing any
path or retrying down a different path. But subsequent discards can
cause path failures. Any discards sent to the path which already failed
a discard ends up failing with EIO from blk_cloned_rq_check_limits with
an "over max size limit" error since the discard limit was set to 0 by
the sd driver for the path. As the error is EIO, this now fails the
path and multipath tries to send the discard down the next path. This
cycle continues as discards are sent until all paths fail.
Fix this by training DM core to disable DISCARD if the underlying
storage already did so.
Also, fix branching in dm_done() and clone_endio() to reflect the
mutually exclussive nature of the IO operations in question.

The limit was already incorporated to dm-crypt with commit 4e870e948f
("dm crypt: fix error with too large bios"), so we don't need to apply
it globally to all targets. The quantity BIO_MAX_PAGES * PAGE_SIZE is
wrong anyway because the variable ti->max_io_len it is supposed to be in
the units of 512-byte sectors not in bytes.
Reduction of the limit to 1048576 sectors could even cause data
corruption in rare cases - suppose that we have a dm-striped device with
stripe size 768MiB. The target will call dm_set_target_max_io_len with
the value 1572864. The buggy code would reduce it to 1048576. Now, the
dm-core will errorneously split the bios on 1048576-sector boundary
insetad of 1572864-sector boundary and pass these stripe-crossing bios
to the striped target.

bio_trim() has an early return, which makes it _not_ idempotent, if the
offset is 0 and the bio's bi_size already matches the requested size.
Prior to DM, all users of bio_trim() were fine with this. But DM has
exposed the fact that bio_trim()'s early return is incompatible with a
cloned bio whose integrity payload must be trimmed via
bio_integrity_trim().
Fix this by reverting DM back to doing the equivalent of bio_trim() but
in an idempotent manner (so bio_integrity_trim is always performed).
Follow-on work is needed to assess what benefit bio_trim()'s early
return is providing to its existing callers.

Block core changes to switch bio-based IO accounting to be percpu had a
side-effect of altering DM core to now rely on calling waitqueue_active
(in both bio-based and request-based) to check if another task is in
dm_wait_for_completion().
A memory barrier is needed before calling waitqueue_active(). DM core
doesn't piggyback on a preceding memory barrier so it must explicitly
use its own.
For more details on why using waitqueue_active() without a preceding
barrier is unsafe, please see the comment before the waitqueue_active()
definition in include/linux/wait.h.
Add the missing memory barrier by switching to using wq_has_sleeper().

The risk of redundant IO accounting was not taken into consideration
when commit 18a25da843 ("dm: ensure bio submission follows a
depth-first tree walk") introduced IO splitting in terms of recursion
via generic_make_request().
Fix this by subtracting the split bio's payload from the IO stats that
were already accounted for by start_io_acct() upon dm_make_request()
entry. This repeat oscillation of the IO accounting, up then down,
isn't ideal but refactoring DM core's IO splitting to pre-split bios
_before_ they are accounted turned out to be an excessive amount of
change that will need a full development cycle to refine and verify.
Before this fix:
/dev/mapper/stripe_dev is a 4-way stripe using a 32k chunksize, so
bios are split on 32k boundaries.
# fio --name=16M --filename=/dev/mapper/stripe_dev --rw=write --bs=64k --size=16M \

"This is the main pull request for block/storage for 4.21.
Larger than usual, it was a busy round with lots of goodies queued up.
Most notable is the removal of the old IO stack, which has been a long
time coming. No new features for a while, everything coming in this
week has all been fixes for things that were previously merged.
This contains:
- Use atomic counters instead of semaphores for mtip32xx (Arnd)
- Cleanup of the mtip32xx request setup (Christoph)
- Fix for circular locking dependency in loop (Jan, Tetsuo)
- bcache (Coly, Guoju, Shenghui)
* Optimizations for writeback caching
* Various fixes and improvements
- nvme (Chaitanya, Christoph, Sagi, Jay, me, Keith)
* host and target support for NVMe over TCP
* Error log page support
* Support for separate read/write/poll queues
* Much improved polling
* discard OOM fallback
* Tracepoint improvements
- lightnvm (Hans, Hua, Igor, Matias, Javier)
* Igor added packed metadata to pblk. Now drives without metadata
per LBA can be used as well.
* Fix from Geert on uninitialized value on chunk metadata reads.
* Fixes from Hans and Javier to pblk recovery and write path.
* Fix from Hua Su to fix a race condition in the pblk recovery
code.
* Scan optimization added to pblk recovery from Zhoujie.
* Small geometry cleanup from me.
- Conversion of the last few drivers that used the legacy path to
blk-mq (me)
- Removal of legacy IO path in SCSI (me, Christoph)
- Removal of legacy IO stack and schedulers (me)
- Support for much better polling, now without interrupts at all.
blk-mq adds support for multiple queue maps, which enables us to
have a map per type. This in turn enables nvme to have separate
completion queues for polling, which can then be interrupt-less.
Also means we're ready for async polled IO, which is hopefully
coming in the next release.
- Killing of (now) unused block exports (Christoph)
- Unification of the blk-rq-qos and blk-wbt wait handling (Josef)
- Support for zoned testing with null_blk (Masato)
- sx8 conversion to per-host tag sets (Christoph)
- IO priority improvements (Damien)
- mq-deadline zoned fix (Damien)
- Ref count blkcg series (Dennis)
- Lots of blk-mq improvements and speedups (me)
- sbitmap scalability improvements (me)
- Make core inflight IO accounting per-cpu (Mikulas)
- Export timeout setting in sysfs (Weiping)
- Cleanup the direct issue path (Jianchao)
- Export blk-wbt internals in block debugfs for easier debugging
(Ming)
- Lots of other fixes and improvements"

DM currently has a statically allocated bio that it uses to issue empty
flushes. It doesn't submit this bio, it just uses it for maintaining
state while setting up clones. Multiple users can access this bio at the
same time. This wasn't previously an issue, even if it was a bit iffy,
but with the blkg associations it can become one.
We setup the blkg association, then clone bio's and submit, then remove
the blkg assocation again. But since we can have multiple tasks doing
this at the same time, against multiple blkg's, then we can either lose
references to a blkg, or put it twice. The latter causes complaints on
the percpu ref being <= 0 when released, and can cause use-after-free as
well. Ming reports that xfstest generic/475 triggers this:
------------[ cut here ]------------
percpu ref (blkg_release) <= 0 (0) after switching to atomic
WARNING: CPU: 13 PID: 0 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:155 percpu_ref_switch_to_atomic_rcu+0x2c9/0x4a0
Switch to just using an on-stack bio for this, and get rid of the
embedded bio.

After switching to percpu inflight counters, the inflight check
is totally buggy. It's perfectly valid for some counters to be
non-zero while having a total inflight IO count of 0, that's how
these kinds of counters work (inc on one CPU, dec on another).
Fix the md_in_flight() check to sum all counters before returning
a false positive, potentially.
While at it, remove the inflight read for IO completion. We don't
need it, just wake anyone that's waiting for the IO count to drop
to zero. The caller needs to re-check that value anyway when woken,
which it does.

The next patch changes the macro bio_set_dev() to associate a bio with a
blkg based on the device set. However, dm creates a static bio to be
used as the basis for cloning empty flush bios on creation. The
bio_set_dev() call in alloc_dev() will cause problems with the next
patch adding association to bio_set_dev() because the call is before the
bdev is associated with a gendisk (bd_disk is %NULL). To get around
this, set the device on the static bio every time and use that to clone

(.request_fn) from request-based DM. Jens has already started
preparing for complete removal of the legacy IO path in 4.21 but this
earlier removal of support from DM has been coordinated with Jens (as
evidenced by the commit being attributed to him). Making
request-based DM exclussively blk-mq only cleans up that portion of DM
core quite nicely.
- Convert the thinp and zoned targets over to using refcount_t where
applicable.
- A couple fixes to the DM zoned target for refcounting and other races
buried in the implementation of metadata block creation and use.
- Small cleanups to remove redundant unlikely() around a couple
WARN_ON_ONCE().
- Simplify how dm-ioctl copies from userspace, eliminating some
potential for a malicious user trying to change the executed ioctl
after its processing has begun.
- Tweaked DM crypt target to use the DM device name when naming the
various workqueues created for a particular DM crypt device (makes the
N workqueues for a DM crypt device more easily understood and enhances

- Small fixup to remove dead branch in DM writecache's memory_entry().

Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- The biggest change this cycle is to remove support for the legacy IO
path (.request_fn) from request-based DM.
Jens has already started preparing for complete removal of the legacy
IO path in 4.21 but this earlier removal of support from DM has been
coordinated with Jens (as evidenced by the commit being attributed to
him).
Making request-based DM exclussively blk-mq only cleans up that
portion of DM core quite nicely.
- Convert the thinp and zoned targets over to using refcount_t where
applicable.
- A couple fixes to the DM zoned target for refcounting and other races
buried in the implementation of metadata block creation and use.
- Small cleanups to remove redundant unlikely() around a couple
WARN_ON_ONCE().
- Simplify how dm-ioctl copies from userspace, eliminating some
potential for a malicious user trying to change the executed ioctl
after its processing has begun.
- Tweaked DM crypt target to use the DM device name when naming the
various workqueues created for a particular DM crypt device (makes
the N workqueues for a DM crypt device more easily understood and
enhances user's accounting capabilities at a glance via "ps")
- Small fixup to remove dead branch in DM writecache's memory_entry().
* tag 'for-4.20/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm:
dm writecache: remove disabled code in memory_entry()
dm zoned: fix various dmz_get_mblock() issues
dm zoned: fix metadata block ref counting
dm raid: avoid bitmap with raid4/5/6 journal device
dm crypt: make workqueue names device-specific
dm: add dm_table_device_name()
dm ioctl: harden copy_params()'s copy_from_user() from malicious users
dm: remove unnecessary unlikely() around WARN_ON_ONCE()
dm zoned: target: use refcount_t for dm zoned reference counters
dm thin: use refcount_t for thin_c reference counting
dm table: require that request-based DM be layered on blk-mq devices
dm: rename DM_TYPE_MQ_REQUEST_BASED to DM_TYPE_REQUEST_BASED
dm: remove legacy request-based IO path
Dispatching a report zones command through the request queue is a major
pain due to the command reply payload rewriting necessary. Given that
blkdev_report_zones() is executing everything synchronously, implement
report zones as a block device file operation instead, allowing major
simplification of the code in many places.
sd, null-blk, dm-linear and dm-flakey being the only block device
drivers supporting exposing zoned block devices, these drivers are
modified to provide the device side implementation of the
report_zones() block device file operation.
For device mappers, a new report_zones() target type operation is
defined so that the upper block layer calls blkdev_report_zones() can
be propagated down to the underlying devices of the dm targets.
Implementation for this new operation is added to the dm-linear and
dm-flakey targets.

If dm-linear or dm-flakey are layered on top of a partition of a zoned
block device, remapping of the start sector and write pointer position
of the zones reported by a report zones BIO must be modified to account
for the target table entry mapping (start offset within the device and
entry mapping with the dm device). If the target's backing device is a
partition of a whole disk, the start sector on the physical device of
the partition must also be accounted for when modifying the zone
information. However, dm_remap_zone_report() was not considering this
last case, resulting in incorrect zone information remapping with
targets using disk partitions.
Fix this by calculating the target backing device start sector using
the position of the completed report zones BIO and the unchanged
position and size of the original report zone BIO. With this value
calculated, the start sector and write pointer position of the target
zones can be correctly remapped.

Add and use a new op_stat_group() function for indexing partition stat
fields rather than indexing them by rq_data_dir() or bio_data_dir().
This function works similarly to op_is_sync() in that it takes the
request::cmd_flags or bio::bi_opf flags and determines which stats
should et updated.
In addition, the second parameter to generic_start_io_acct() and
generic_end_io_acct() is now a REQ_OP rather than simply a read or
write bit and it uses op_stat_group() on the parameter to determine
the stat group.
Note that the partition in_flight counts are not part of the per-cpu
statistics and as such are not indexed via this function. It's now
indexed by op_is_write().

Currently device_supports_dax() just checks to see if the QUEUE_FLAG_DAX
flag is set on the device's request queue to decide whether or not the
device supports filesystem DAX. Really we should be using
bdev_dax_supported() like filesystems do at mount time. This performs
other tests like checking to make sure the dax_direct_access() path works.
We also explicitly clear QUEUE_FLAG_DAX on the DM device's request queue if
any of the underlying devices do not support DAX. This makes the handling
of QUEUE_FLAG_DAX consistent with the setting/clearing of most other flags
in dm_table_set_restrictions().
Now that bdev_dax_supported() explicitly checks for QUEUE_FLAG_DAX, this
will ensure that filesystems built upon DM devices will only be able to
mount with DAX if all underlying devices also support DAX.

Use of bio_clone_bioset() is inefficient if there is no need to clone
the original bio's bio_vec array. Best to use the bio_clone_fast()
variant. Also, just using bio_advance() is only part of what is needed
to properly setup the clone -- it doesn't account for the various
bio_integrity() related work that also needs to be performed (see
bio_split).
Address both of these issues by switching from bio_clone_bioset() to

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"This cycle was was not something I ever want to repeat as there were
several late changes that have only now just settled.
Half of the branch up to commit d2c997c0f1 ("fs, dax: use
page->mapping to warn...") have been in -next for several releases.
The of_pmem driver and the address range scrub rework were late
arrivals, and the dax work was scaled back at the last moment.
The of_pmem driver missed a previous merge window due to an oversight.
A sense of obligation to rectify that miss is why it is included for
4.17. It has acks from PowerPC folks. Stephen reported a build failure
that only occurs when merging it with your latest tree, for now I have
fixed that up by disabling modular builds of of_pmem. A test merge
with your tree has received a build success report from the 0day robot
over 156 configs.
An initial version of the ARS rework was submitted before the merge
window. It is self contained to libnvdimm, a net code reduction, and
passing all unit tests.
The filesystem-dax changes are based on the wait_var_event()
functionality from tip/sched/core. However, late review feedback
showed that those changes regressed truncate performance to a large
degree. The branch was rewound to drop the truncate behavior change
and now only includes preparation patches and cleanups (with full acks
and reviews). The finalization of this dax-dma-vs-trnucate work will
need to wait for 4.18.

Merge tag 'for-4.17/dm-changes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/device-mapper/linux-dm
Pull device mapper updates from Mike Snitzer:
- DM core passthrough ioctl fix to retain reference to DM table, and
that table's block devices, while issuing the ioctl to one of those
block devices.
- DM core passthrough ioctl fix to _not_ override the fmode_t used to
issue the ioctl. Overriding by using the fmode_t that the block
device was originally open with during DM table load is a liability.
- Add DM core support for secure erase forwarding and update the DM
linear and DM striped targets to support them.
- A DM core 4.16 stable fix to allow abnormal IO (e.g. discard, write
same, write zeroes) for targets that make use of the non-splitting IO
variant (as is done for multipath or thinp when layered directly on
NVMe).
- Allow DM targets to return a payload in response to a DM message that
they are sent. This is useful for DM targets that would like to
provide statistics data in response to DM messages.
- Update DM bufio to support non-power-of-2 block sizes. Numerous other
related changes prepare the DM bufio code for this support.
- Fix DM crypt to use a bounded amount of memory across the entire
system. This is to avoid OOM that can otherwise occur in response to
certain pathological IO workloads (e.g. discarding a large DM crypt
device).
- Add a 'check_at_most_once' feature to the DM verity target to allow
verity to be used on mobile devices that have very limited resources.
- Fix the DM integrity target to fail early if a keyed algorithm (e.g.
HMAC) is to be used but the key isn't set.
- Add non-power-of-2 support to the DM unstripe target.
- Eliminate the use of a Variable Length Array in the DM stripe target.
- Update the DM log-writes target to record metadata (REQ_META flag).
- DM raid fixes for its nosync status and some variable range issues.
