Xen blkfront advertises its support of the persistent grants feature
when it first setting up and when resuming in 'talk_to_blkback()'.
Then, blkback reads the advertised value when it connects with blkfront
and decides if it will use the persistent grants feature or not, and
advertises its decision to blkfront.  Blkfront reads the blkback's
decision and it also makes the decision for the use of the feature.

Commit 402c43ea6b34 ("xen-blkfront: Apply 'feature_persistent' parameter
when connect"), however, made the blkfront's read of the parameter for
disabling the advertisement, namely 'feature_persistent', to be done
when it negotiate, not when advertise.  Therefore blkfront advertises
without reading the parameter.  As the field for caching the parameter
value is zero-initialized, it always advertises as the feature is
disabled, so that the persistent grants feature becomes always disabled.

This commit fixes the issue by making the blkfront does parmeter caching
just before the advertisement.

The advertisement of the persistent grants feature (writing
'feature-persistent' to xenbus) should mean not the decision for using
the feature but only the availability of the feature.  However, commit
74a852479c68 ("xen-blkfront: add a parameter for disabling of persistent
grants") made a field of blkfront, which was a place for saving only the
negotiation result, to be used for yet another purpose: caching of the
'feature_persistent' parameter value.  As a result, the advertisement,
which should follow only the parameter value, becomes inconsistent.

This commit fixes the misuse of the semantic by making blkfront saves
the parameter value in a separate place and advertises the support based
on only the saved value.

The userspace can configure a loop using an ioctl call, wherein
a configuration of type loop_config is passed (see lo_ioctl()'s
case on line 1550 of drivers/block/loop.c). This proceeds to call
loop_configure() which in turn calls loop_set_status_from_info()
(see line 1050 of loop.c), passing &amp;config-&gt;info which is of type
loop_info64*. This function then sets the appropriate values, like
the offset.

loop_device has lo_offset of type loff_t (see line 52 of loop.c),
which is typdef-chained to long long, whereas loop_info64 has
lo_offset of type __u64 (see line 56 of include/uapi/linux/loop.h).

The function directly copies offset from info to the device as
follows (See line 980 of loop.c):
	lo-&gt;lo_offset = info-&gt;lo_offset;

This results in an overflow, which triggers a warning in iomap_iter()
due to a call to iomap_iter_done() which has:
	WARN_ON_ONCE(iter-&gt;iomap.offset &gt; iter-&gt;pos);

Thus, check for negative value during loop_set_status_from_info().

<id>37887783b3fef877bf34b8992c9199864da4afcb</id>
<content type='text'>
This reverts commit e7be8d1dd983156b ("zram: remove double compression
logic") as it causes zram failures.  It does not revert cleanly, PTR_ERR
handling was introduced in the meantime.  This is handled by appropriate
IS_ERR.

When under memory pressure, zs_malloc() can fail.  Before the above
commit, the allocation was retried with direct reclaim enabled (GFP_NOIO).
After the commit, it is not -- only __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM is tried.

So when the failure occurs under memory pressure, the overlaying
filesystem such as ext2 (mounted by ext4 module in this case) can emit
failures, making the (file)system unusable:
  EXT4-fs warning (device zram0): ext4_end_bio:343: I/O error 10 writing to inode 16386 starting block 159744)
  Buffer I/O error on device zram0, logical block 159744

With direct reclaim, memory is really reclaimed and allocation succeeds,
eventually.  In the worst case, the oom killer is invoked, which is proper
outcome if user sets up zram too large (in comparison to available RAM).

This very diff doesn't apply to 5.19 (stable) cleanly (see PTR_ERR note
above). Use revert of e7be8d1dd983 directly.

This reverts commit e7be8d1dd983156b ("zram: remove double compression
logic") as it causes zram failures.  It does not revert cleanly, PTR_ERR
handling was introduced in the meantime.  This is handled by appropriate
IS_ERR.

When under memory pressure, zs_malloc() can fail.  Before the above
commit, the allocation was retried with direct reclaim enabled (GFP_NOIO).
After the commit, it is not -- only __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM is tried.

So when the failure occurs under memory pressure, the overlaying
filesystem such as ext2 (mounted by ext4 module in this case) can emit
failures, making the (file)system unusable:
  EXT4-fs warning (device zram0): ext4_end_bio:343: I/O error 10 writing to inode 16386 starting block 159744)
  Buffer I/O error on device zram0, logical block 159744

With direct reclaim, memory is really reclaimed and allocation succeeds,
eventually.  In the worst case, the oom killer is invoked, which is proper
outcome if user sets up zram too large (in comparison to available RAM).

This very diff doesn't apply to 5.19 (stable) cleanly (see PTR_ERR note
above). Use revert of e7be8d1dd983 directly.

In ublk_queue_rq(), Assume current request is a re-issued request aborted
previously in monitor_work because the ubq_daemon(ioucmd's task) is
PF_EXITING. For this request, we cannot call
io_uring_cmd_complete_in_task() anymore because at that moment io_uring
context may be freed in case that no inflight ioucmd exists. Otherwise,
we may cause null-deref in ctx-&gt;fallback_work.

Add a check on UBLK_IO_FLAG_ABORTED to prevent the above situation. This
check is safe and makes sense.

Note: monitor_work sets UBLK_IO_FLAG_ABORTED and ends this request
(releasing the tag). Then the request is restarted(allocating the tag)
and we are here. Since releasing/allocating a tag implies smp_mb(),
finding UBLK_IO_FLAG_ABORTED guarantees that here is a re-issued request
aborted previously.
