PSID is a 32 character password printed on the drive label,
to prove its physical access. This PSID reverttper function
is very useful to regain the control over the drive when it
is locked and the user can no longer access it because of some
failures. However, *all the data on the drive is completely
erased*. This method is advisable only when the user is exhausted
of all other recovery methods.
PSID capabilities are described in:

In reboot tests on several devices we were seeing a "use after free"
when slub_debug or KASAN was enabled. The kernel complained about:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 6b6b6c2b
...which is a classic sign of use after free under slub_debug. The
stack crawl in kgdb looked like:
0 test_bit (addr=<optimized out>, nr=<optimized out>)
1 bfq_bfqq_busy (bfqq=<optimized out>)
2 bfq_select_queue (bfqd=<optimized out>)
3 __bfq_dispatch_request (hctx=<optimized out>)
4 bfq_dispatch_request (hctx=<optimized out>)
5 0xc056ef00 in blk_mq_do_dispatch_sched (hctx=0xed249440)
6 0xc056f728 in blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests (hctx=0xed249440)
7 0xc0568d24 in __blk_mq_run_hw_queue (hctx=0xed249440)
8 0xc0568d94 in blk_mq_run_work_fn (work=<optimized out>)
9 0xc024c5c4 in process_one_work (worker=0xec6d4640, work=0xed249480)
10 0xc024cff4 in worker_thread (__worker=0xec6d4640)
Digging in kgdb, it could be found that, though bfqq looked fine,
bfqq->bic had been freed.
Through further digging, I postulated that perhaps it is illegal to
access a "bic" (AKA an "icq") after bfq_exit_icq() had been called
because the "bic" can be freed at some point in time after this call
is made. I confirmed that there certainly were cases where the exact
crashing code path would access the "bic" after bfq_exit_icq() had
been called. Sspecifically I set the "bfqq->bic" to (void *)0x7 and
saw that the bic was 0x7 at the time of the crash.
To understand a bit more about why this crash was fairly uncommon (I
saw it only once in a few hundred reboots), you can see that much of
the time bfq_exit_icq_fbqq() fully frees the bfqq and thus it can't
access the ->bic anymore. The only case it doesn't is if
bfq_put_queue() sees a reference still held.
However, even in the case when bfqq isn't freed, the crash is still
rare. Why? I tracked what happened to the "bic" after the exit
routine. It doesn't get freed right away. Rather,
put_io_context_active() eventually called put_io_context() which
queued up freeing on a workqueue. The freeing then actually happened
later than that through call_rcu(). Despite all these delays, some
extra debugging showed that all the hoops could be jumped through in
time and the memory could be freed causing the original crash. Phew!
To make a long story short, assuming it truly is illegal to access an
icq after the "exit_icq" callback is finished, this patch is needed.

"bic->saved_wr_start_at_switch_to_srt" was later than the current

"bic->saved_wr_start_at_switch_to_srt" was actually 0 and a bit more

Consider, on one side, a bfq_queue Q that remains empty while in
service, and, on the other side, the pending I/O of bfq_queues that,
according to their timestamps, have to be served after Q. If an
uncontrolled amount of I/O from the latter bfq_queues were dispatched
while Q is waiting for its new I/O to arrive, then Q's bandwidth
guarantees would be violated. To prevent this, I/O dispatch is plugged
until Q receives new I/O (except for a properly controlled amount of
injected I/O). Unfortunately, preemption breaks I/O-dispatch plugging,
for the following reason.
Preemption is performed in two steps. First, Q is expired and
re-scheduled. Second, the new bfq_queue to serve is chosen. The first
step is needed by the second, as the second can be performed only
after Q's timestamps have been properly updated (done in the
expiration step), and Q has been re-queued for service. This
dependency is a consequence of the way how BFQ's scheduling algorithm
is currently implemented.
But Q is not re-scheduled at all in the first step, because Q is
empty. As a consequence, an uncontrolled amount of I/O may be
dispatched until Q becomes non empty again. This breaks Q's service
guarantees.
This commit addresses this issue by re-scheduling Q even if it is
empty. This in turn breaks the assumption that all scheduled queues
are non empty. Then a few extra checks are now needed.

BFQ enqueues the I/O coming from each process into a separate
bfq_queue, and serves bfq_queues one at a time. Each bfq_queue may be
served for at most timeout_sync milliseconds (default: 125 ms). This
service scheme is prone to the following inaccuracy.
While a bfq_queue Q1 is in service, some empty bfq_queue Q2 may
receive I/O, and, according to BFQ's scheduling policy, may become the
right bfq_queue to serve, in place of the currently in-service
bfq_queue. In this respect, postponing the service of Q2 to after the
service of Q1 finishes may delay the completion of Q2's I/O, compared
with an ideal service in which all non-empty bfq_queues are served in
parallel, and every non-empty bfq_queue is served at a rate
proportional to the bfq_queue's weight. This additional delay is equal
at most to the time Q1 may unjustly remain in service before switching
to Q2.
If Q1 and Q2 have the same weight, then this time is most likely
negligible compared with the completion time to be guaranteed to Q2's
I/O. In addition, first, one of the reasons why BFQ may want to serve
Q1 for a while is that this boosts throughput and, second, serving Q1
longer reduces BFQ's overhead. As a conclusion, it is usually better
not to preempt Q1 if both Q1 and Q2 have the same weight.
In contrast, as Q2's weight or priority becomes higher and higher
compared with that of Q1, the above delay becomes larger and larger,
compared with the I/O completion times that have to be guaranteed to
Q2 according to Q2's weight. So reducing this delay may be more
important than avoiding the costs of preempting Q1.
Accordingly, this commit preempts Q1 if Q2 has a higher weight or a
higher priority than Q1. Preemption causes Q1 to be re-scheduled, and
triggers a new choice of the next bfq_queue to serve. If Q2 really is
the next bfq_queue to serve, then Q2 will be set in service
immediately.
This change reduces the component of the I/O latency caused by the
above delay by about 80%. For example, on an (old) PLEXTOR PX-256M5
SSD, the maximum latency reported by fio drops from 15.1 to 3.2 ms for
a process doing sporadic random reads while another process is doing
continuous sequential reads.

A bfq_queue Q may happen to be synchronized with another
bfq_queue Q2, i.e., the I/O of Q2 may need to be completed for Q to
receive new I/O. We call Q2 "waker queue".
If I/O plugging is being performed for Q, and Q is not receiving any
more I/O because of the above synchronization, then, thanks to BFQ's
injection mechanism, the waker queue is likely to get served before
the I/O-plugging timeout fires.
Unfortunately, this fact may not be sufficient to guarantee a high
throughput during the I/O plugging, because the inject limit for Q may
be too low to guarantee a lot of injected I/O. In addition, the
duration of the plugging, i.e., the time before Q finally receives new
I/O, may not be minimized, because the waker queue may happen to be
served only after other queues.
To address these issues, this commit introduces the explicit detection
of the waker queue, and the unconditional injection of a pending I/O
request of the waker queue on each invocation of
bfq_dispatch_request().
One may be concerned that this systematic injection of I/O from the
waker queue delays the service of Q's I/O. Fortunately, it doesn't. On
the contrary, next Q's I/O is brought forward dramatically, for it is
not blocked for milliseconds.

Until the base value for request service times gets finally computed
for a bfq_queue, the inject limit for that queue does depend on the
think-time state (short|long) of the queue. A timely update of the
think time then guarantees a quicker activation or deactivation of the
injection. Fortunately, the think time of a bfq_queue is updated in
the same code path as the inject limit; but after the inject limit.
This commits moves the update of the think time before the update of
the inject limit. For coherence, it moves the update of the seek time
too.

I/O injection gets reduced if it increases the request service times
of the victim queue beyond a certain threshold. The threshold, in its
turn, is computed as a function of the base service time enjoyed by
the queue when it undergoes no injection.
As a consequence, for injection to work properly, the above base value
has to be accurate. In this respect, such a value may vary over
time. For example, it varies if the size or the spatial locality of
the I/O requests in the queue change. It is then important to update
this value whenever possible. This commit performs this update.

One of the cases where the parameters for injection may be updated is
when there are no more in-flight I/O requests. The number of in-flight
requests is stored in the field bfqd->rq_in_driver of the descriptor
bfqd of the device. So, the controlled condition is
bfqd->rq_in_driver == 0.
Unfortunately, this is wrong because, the instruction that checks this
condition is in the code path that handles the completion of a
request, and, in particular, the instruction is executed before
bfqd->rq_in_driver is decremented in such a code path.
This commit fixes this issue by just replacing 0 with 1 in the
comparison.

Until the base value of the request service times gets finally
computed for a bfq_queue, the inject limit does depend on the
think-time state (short|long). The limit must be 0 or 1 if the think
time is deemed, respectively, as short or long. However, such a check
and possible limit update is performed only periodically, once per
second. So, to make the injection mechanism much more reactive, this
commit performs the update also every time the think-time state
changes.
In addition, in the following special case, this commit lets the
inject limit of a bfq_queue bfqq remain equal to 1 even if bfqq's
think time is short: bfqq's I/O is synchronized with that of some
other queue, i.e., bfqq may receive new I/O only after the I/O of the
other queue is completed. Keeping the inject limit to 1 allows the
blocking I/O to be served while bfqq is in service. And this is very
convenient both for bfqq and for the total throughput, as explained
in detail in the comments in bfq_update_has_short_ttime().

in order to avoid any potential type mistakes, in particular in the
context in which this code is being used.
So, replace the following form:
sizeof(*new_ptbl) + target * sizeof(new_ptbl->part[0])
with:
struct_size(new_ptbl, part, target)
Also, notice that variable size is unnecessary, hence it is removed.
This code was detected with the help of Coccinelle.

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.
When all of these checks are cleaned up, lots of the functions used in
the blk-mq-debugfs code can now return void, as no need to check the
return value of them either.
Overall, this ends up cleaning up the code and making it smaller, always
a nice win.

There's some discussion on how to do this the best, and Tejun prefers
that BFQ just create the file itself instead of having cgroups support
a symlink feature.
Hence revert commit 54b7b868e8 and 19e9da9e86 for 5.2, and this

Many userspace tools and services use the proportional-share policy of
the blkio/io cgroups controller. The CFQ I/O scheduler implemented
this policy for the legacy block layer. To modify the weight of a
group in case CFQ was in charge, the 'weight' parameter of the group
must be modified. On the other hand, the BFQ I/O scheduler implements
the same policy in blk-mq, but, with BFQ, the parameter to modify has
a different name: bfq.weight (forced choice until legacy block was
present, because two different policies cannot share a common parameter
in cgroups).
Due to CFQ legacy, most if not all userspace configurations still use
the parameter 'weight', and for the moment do not seem likely to be
changed. But, when CFQ went away with legacy block, such a parameter
ceased to exist.
So, a simple workaround has been proposed [1] to make all
configurations work: add a symlink, named weight, to bfq.weight. This
commit adds such a symlink.

In theory, IO scheduler belongs to request queue, and the request pool
of sched tags belongs to the request queue too.
However, the current tags allocation interfaces are re-used for both
driver tags and sched tags, and driver tags is definitely host wide,
and doesn't belong to any request queue, same with its request pool.
So we need tagset instance for freeing request of sched tags.
Meantime, blk_mq_free_tag_set() often follows blk_cleanup_queue() in case
of non-BLK_MQ_F_TAG_SHARED, this way requires that request pool of sched
tags to be freed before calling blk_mq_free_tag_set().
Commit 47cdee29ef ("block: move blk_exit_queue into __blk_release_queue")
moves blk_exit_queue into __blk_release_queue for simplying the fast
path in generic_make_request(), then causes oops during freeing requests
of sched tags in __blk_release_queue().
Fix the above issue by move freeing request pool of sched tags into
blk_cleanup_queue(), this way is safe becasue queue has been frozen and no any
in-queue requests at that time. Freeing sched tags has to be kept in queue's
release handler becasue there might be un-completed dispatch activity
which might refer to sched tags.

The following is a description of a hang in blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait().
The hang happens on attempt to freeze a queue while another task does
queue unfreeze.
The root cause is an incorrect sequence of percpu_ref_resurrect() and
percpu_ref_kill() and as a result those two can be swapped:
CPU#0 CPU#1
---------------- -----------------
q1 = blk_mq_init_queue(shared_tags)
q2 = blk_mq_init_queue(shared_tags):
blk_mq_add_queue_tag_set(shared_tags):
blk_mq_update_tag_set_depth(shared_tags):
list_for_each_entry()
blk_mq_freeze_queue(q1)
> percpu_ref_kill()
> blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait()
blk_cleanup_queue(q1)
blk_mq_freeze_queue(q1)
> percpu_ref_kill()
^^^^^^ freeze_depth can't guarantee the order
blk_mq_unfreeze_queue()
> percpu_ref_resurrect()
> blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait()
^^^^^^ Hang here!!!!
This wrong sequence raises kernel warning:
percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm called more than once on blk_queue_usage_counter_release!
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 11854 at lib/percpu-refcount.c:336 percpu_ref_kill_and_confirm+0x99/0xb0
But the most unpleasant effect is a hang of a blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait(),
which waits for a zero of a q_usage_counter, which never happens
because percpu-ref was reinited (instead of being killed) and stays in
PERCPU state forever.
How to reproduce:
- "insmod null_blk.ko shared_tags=1 nr_devices=0 queue_mode=2"
- cpu0: python Script.py 0; taskset the corresponding process running on cpu0
- cpu1: python Script.py 1; taskset the corresponding process running on cpu1

We currently fail to update the front/back segment size in the bio when
deciding to allow an otherwise gappy segement to a device with a
virt boundary. The reason why this did not cause problems is that
devices with a virt boundary fundamentally don't use segments as we
know it and thus don't care. Make that assumption formal by forcing
an unlimited segement size in this case.

Currently ll_merge_requests_fn, unlike all other merge functions,
reduces nr_phys_segments by one if the last segment of the previous,
and the first segment of the next segement are contigous. While this
seems like a nice solution to avoid building smaller than possible
requests it causes a mismatch between the segments actually present
in the request and those iterated over by the bvec iterators, including
__rq_for_each_bio. This can for example mistrigger the single segment
optimization in the nvme-pci driver, and might lead to mismatching
nr_phys_segments number when recalculating the number of request
when inserting a cloned request.
We could possibly work around this by making the bvec iterators take
the front and back segment size into account, but that would require
moving them from the bio to the bio_iter and spreading this mess
over all users of bvecs. Or we could simply remove this optimization
under the assumption that most users already build good enough bvecs,
and that the bio merge patch never cared about this optimization
either. The latter is what this patch does.

Now freeing hw queue resource is moved to hctx's release handler,
we don't need to worry about the race between blk_cleanup_queue and
run queue any more.
So don't drain in-progress dispatch in blk_cleanup_queue().
This is basically revert of c2856ae2f3 ("blk-mq: quiesce queue before
freeing queue").

With holding queue's kobject refcount, it is safe for driver to run queue,
so one run queue might be scheduled after blk_sync_queue() is done.

In normal queue cleanup path, hctx is released after request queue
is freed, see blk_mq_release().
However, in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues(), hctx may be freed because
of hw queues shrinking. This way is easy to cause use-after-free,
because: one implicit rule is that it is safe to call almost all block
layer APIs if the request queue is alive; and one hctx may be retrieved
by one API, then the hctx can be freed by blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues();
finally use-after-free is triggered.
Fixes this issue by always freeing hctx after releasing request queue.
If some hctxs are removed in blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues(), introduce
a per-queue list to hold them, then try to resuse these hctxs if numa
node is matched.

Once blk_cleanup_queue() returns, tags shouldn't be used any more,
because blk_mq_free_tag_set() may be called. Commit 45a9c9d909
("blk-mq: Fix a use-after-free") fixes this issue exactly.
However, that commit introduces another issue. Before 45a9c9d909,
we are allowed to run queue during cleaning up queue if the queue's
kobj refcount is held. After that commit, queue can't be run during
queue cleaning up, otherwise oops can be triggered easily because
some fields of hctx are freed by blk_mq_free_queue() in blk_cleanup_queue().
We have invented ways for addressing this kind of issue before, such as:
8dc765d438 ("SCSI: fix queue cleanup race before queue initialization is done")
c2856ae2f3 ("blk-mq: quiesce queue before freeing queue")
But still can't cover all cases, recently James reports another such
kind of issue:
https://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=155389088124782&w=2
This issue can be quite hard to address by previous way, given
scsi_run_queue() may run requeues for other LUNs.
Fixes the above issue by freeing hctx's resources in its release handler, and this
way is safe becasue tags isn't needed for freeing such hctx resource.
This approach follows typical design pattern wrt. kobject's release handler.

Just like aio/io_uring, we need to grab 2 refcount for queuing one
request, one is for submission, another is for completion.
If the request isn't queued from plug code path, the refcount grabbed
in generic_make_request() serves for submission. In theroy, this
refcount should have been released after the sumission(async run queue)
is done. blk_freeze_queue() works with blk_sync_queue() together
for avoiding race between cleanup queue and IO submission, given async
run queue activities are canceled because hctx->run_work is scheduled with
the refcount held, so it is fine to not hold the refcount when
running the run queue work function for dispatch IO.
However, if request is staggered into plug list, and finally queued
from plug code path, the refcount in submission side is actually missed.
And we may start to run queue after queue is removed because the queue's
kobject refcount isn't guaranteed to be grabbed in flushing plug list
context, then kernel oops is triggered, see the following race:
blk_mq_flush_plug_list():
blk_mq_sched_insert_requests()
insert requests to sw queue or scheduler queue
blk_mq_run_hw_queue
Because of concurrent run queue, all requests inserted above may be
completed before calling the above blk_mq_run_hw_queue. Then queue can
be freed during the above blk_mq_run_hw_queue().
Fixes the issue by grab .q_usage_counter before calling
blk_mq_sched_insert_requests() in blk_mq_flush_plug_list(). This way is
safe because the queue is absolutely alive before inserting request.

commit 2da78092dd "block: Fix dev_t minor allocation lifetime"
specifically moved blk_free_devt(dev->devt) call to part_release()
to avoid reallocating device number before the device is fully
shutdown.
However, it can cause use-after-free on gendisk in get_gendisk().
We use md device as example to show the race scenes:
Process1 Worker Process2
md_free
blkdev_open
del_gendisk
add delete_partition_work_fn() to wq
__blkdev_get
get_gendisk
put_disk
disk_release
kfree(disk)
find part from ext_devt_idr
get_disk_and_module(disk)
cause use after free
delete_partition_work_fn
put_device(part)
part_release
remove part from ext_devt_idr
Before <devt, hd_struct pointer> is removed from ext_devt_idr by
delete_partition_work_fn(), we can find the devt and then access
gendisk by hd_struct pointer. But, if we access the gendisk after
it have been freed, it can cause in use-after-freeon gendisk in
get_gendisk().
We fix this by adding a new helper blk_invalidate_devt() in
delete_partition() and del_gendisk(). It replaces hd_struct
pointer in idr with value 'NULL', and deletes the entry from
idr in part_release() as we do now.
Thanks to Jan Kara for providing the solution and more clear comments
for the code.

A previous commit moved the shallow depth and BFQ depth map calculations
to be done at init time, moving it outside of the hotter IO path. This
potentially causes hangs if the users changes the depth of the scheduler
map, by writing to the 'nr_requests' sysfs file for that device.
Add a blk-mq-sched hook that allows blk-mq to inform the scheduler if
the depth changes, so that the scheduler can update its internal state.

Drivers now report to the block layer if they support media change
events. If this is not the case, there's no need to allocate the event
structure, and all event handling code can effectively be skipped. This
simplifies code flow in particular for non-removable sd devices.
This effectively reverts commit 75e3f3ee3c ("block: always allocate
genhd->ev if check_events is implemented").
The sysfs files for the events are kept in place even if no events are
supported, as user space may rely on them being present. The only
difference is that an error code is now returned if the user tries to
set poll_msecs.

Currently, an empty disk->events field tells the block layer not to
forward media change events to user space. This was done in commit
7c88a168da ("block: don't propagate unlisted DISK_EVENTs to userland")
in order to avoid events from "fringe" drivers to be forwarded to user
space. By doing so, the block layer lost the information which events
were supported by a particular block device, and most importantly,
whether or not a given device supports media change events at all.
Prepare for not interpreting the "events" field this way in the future
any more. This is done by adding an additional field "event_flags" to
struct gendisk, and two flag bits that can be set to have the device
treated like one that had the "events" field set to a non-zero value
before. This applies only to the sd and sr drivers, which are changed to
set the new flags.
The new flags are DISK_EVENT_FLAG_POLL to enforce polling of the device
for synchronous events, and DISK_EVENT_FLAG_UEVENT to tell the
blocklayer to generate udev events from kernel events.
In order to add the event_flags field to struct gendisk, the events
field is converted to an "unsigned short"; it doesn't need to hold
values bigger than 2 anyway.
This patch doesn't change behavior.
