null_blk: Use strscpy() instead of strscpy_pad() in null_add_dev()

2025-04-11T13:10:46+00:00

blk_mq_alloc_disk() already zero-initializes the destination buffer,
making strscpy() sufficient for safely copying the disk's name. The
additional NUL-padding performed by strscpy_pad() is unnecessary.

If the destination buffer has a fixed length, strscpy() automatically
determines its size using sizeof() when the argument is omitted. This
makes the explicit size argument unnecessary.

The source string is also NUL-terminated and meets the __must_be_cstr()
requirement of strscpy().

No functional changes intended.

Pull timer cleanups from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A treewide hrtimer timer cleanup

  hrtimers are initialized with hrtimer_init() and a subsequent store to
  the callback pointer. This turned out to be suboptimal for the
  upcoming Rust integration and is obviously a silly implementation to
  begin with.

  This cleanup replaces the hrtimer_init(T); T->function = cb; sequence
  with hrtimer_setup(T, cb);

  The conversion was done with Coccinelle and a few manual fixups.

  Once the conversion has completely landed in mainline, hrtimer_init()
  will be removed and the hrtimer::function becomes a private member"

block: change blk_mq_add_to_batch() third argument type to bool

2025-03-12T14:26:36+00:00

Commit 1f47ed294a2b ("block: cleanup and fix batch completion adding
conditions") modified the evaluation criteria for the third argument,
'ioerror', in the blk_mq_add_to_batch() function. Initially, the
function had checked if 'ioerror' equals zero. Following the commit, it
started checking for negative error values, with the presumption that
such values, for instance -EIO, would be passed in.

However, blk_mq_add_to_batch() callers do not pass negative error
values. Instead, they pass status codes defined in various ways:

- NVMe PCI and Apple drivers pass NVMe status code
- virtio_blk driver passes the virtblk request header status byte
- null_blk driver passes blk_status_t

These codes are either zero or positive, therefore the revised check
fails to function as intended. Specifically, with the NVMe PCI driver,
this modification led to the failure of the blktests test case nvme/039.
In this test scenario, errors are artificially injected to the NVMe
driver, resulting in positive NVMe status codes passed to
blk_mq_add_to_batch(), which unexpectedly processes the failed I/O in a
batch. Hence the failure.

To correct the ioerror check within blk_mq_add_to_batch(), make all
callers to uniformly pass the argument as boolean. Modify the callers to
check their specific status codes and pass the boolean value 'is_error'.
Also describe the arguments of blK_mq_add_to_batch as kerneldoc.

badblocks: use sector_t instead of int to avoid truncation of badblocks length

2025-03-06T15:04:52+00:00

There is a truncation of badblocks length issue when set badblocks as
follow:

echo "2055 4294967299" > bad_blocks
cat bad_blocks
2055 3

Change 'sectors' argument type from 'int' to 'sector_t'.

This change avoids truncation of badblocks length for large sectors by
replacing 'int' with 'sector_t' (u64), enabling proper handling of larger
disk sizes and ensuring compatibility with 64-bit sector addressing.

badblocks: return boolean from badblocks_set() and badblocks_clear()

2025-03-06T15:03:28+00:00

Change the return type of badblocks_set() and badblocks_clear()

- _badblocks_set() and _badblocks_clear() functions now return
true for success and false for failure.
- All calls to these functions are updated to handle the new
boolean return type.
- This change improves code clarity and ensures a more consistent
handling of success and failure states.

null_blk: do partial IO for bad blocks

2025-03-03T18:17:52+00:00

The current null_blk implementation checks if any bad blocks exist in
the target blocks of each IO. If so, the IO fails and data is not
transferred for all of the IO target blocks. However, when real storage
devices have bad blocks, the devices may transfer data partially up to
the first bad blocks (e.g., SAS drives). Especially, when the IO is a
write operation, such partial IO leaves partially written data on the
device.

To simulate such partial IO using null_blk, introduce the new parameter
'badblocks_partial_io'. When this parameter is set,
null_handle_badblocks() returns the number of the sectors for the
partial IO as its third pointer argument. Pass the returned number of
sectors to the following calls to null_handle_memory_backend() in
null_process_cmd() and null_zone_write().

commit does not change behavior. It will enable null_handle_badblocks()
to return the size of partial data transfer in the following commit,
