md/raid10: Fix memory leak when raid10 reshape completes.

2014-09-17T15:06:51+00:00

commit b39685526f46976bcd13aa08c82480092befa46c upstream.

When a raid10 commences a resync/recovery/reshape it allocates
some buffer space.
When a resync/recovery completes the buffer space is freed.  But not
when the reshape completes.
This can result in a small memory leak.

There is a subtle side-effect of this bug.  When a RAID10 is reshaped
to a larger array (more devices), the reshape is immediately followed
by a "resync" of the new space.  This "resync" will use the buffer
space which was allocated for "reshape".  This can cause problems
including a "BUG" in the SCSI layer.  So this is suitable for -stable.

md/raid10: fix memory leak when reshaping a RAID10.

2014-09-17T15:06:51+00:00

commit ce0b0a46955d1bb389684a2605dbcaa990ba0154 upstream.

raid10 reshape clears unwanted bits from a bio->bi_flags using
a method which, while clumsy, worked until 3.10 when BIO_OWNS_VEC
was added.
Since then it clears that bit but shouldn't.  This results in a
memory leak.

So change to used the approved method of clearing unwanted bits.

As this causes a memory leak which can consume all of memory
the fix is suitable for -stable.

md/raid6: avoid data corruption during recovery of double-degraded RAID6

2014-09-17T15:06:51+00:00

commit 9c4bdf697c39805078392d5ddbbba5ae5680e0dd upstream.

During recovery of a double-degraded RAID6 it is possible for
some blocks not to be recovered properly, leading to corruption.

If a write happens to one block in a stripe that would be written to a
missing device, and at the same time that stripe is recovering data
to the other missing device, then that recovered data may not be written.

This patch skips, in the double-degraded case, an optimisation that is
only safe for single-degraded arrays.

Bug was introduced in 2.6.32 and fix is suitable for any kernel since
then.  In an older kernel with separate handle_stripe5() and
handle_stripe6() functions the patch must change handle_stripe6().

md/raid1,raid10: always abort recover on write error.

2014-09-17T15:06:51+00:00

commit 2446dba03f9dabe0b477a126cbeb377854785b47 upstream.

Currently we don't abort recovery on a write error if the write error
to the recovering device was triggerd by normal IO (as opposed to
recovery IO).

This means that for one bitmap region, the recovery might write to the
recovering device for a few sectors, then not bother for subsequent
sectors (as it never writes to failed devices).  In this case
the bitmap bit will be cleared, but it really shouldn't.

The result is that if the recovering device fails and is then re-added
(after fixing whatever hardware problem triggerred the failure),
the second recovery won't redo the region it was in the middle of,
so some of the device will not be recovered properly.

If we abort the recovery, the region being processes will be cancelled
(bit not cleared) and the whole region will be retried.

As the bug can result in data corruption the patch is suitable for
-stable.  For kernels prior to 3.11 there is a conflict in raid10.c
which will require care.

bcache: Minor journal fix

2014-09-02T09:20:15+00:00

commit b3fa7e77e67e647db3db2166b65083a427d84ed3 upstream.

The real fix is where we check the bytes we need against how much is
remaining - we also need to check for a journal entry bigger than our
buffer, we'll never write those and it would be bad if we tried to read
one.

Also improve the diagnostic messages.

dm cache: fix race affecting dirty block count

2014-08-19T12:23:37+00:00

commit 44fa816bb778edbab6b6ddaaf24908dd6295937e upstream.

nr_dirty is updated without locking, causing it to drift so that it is
non-zero (either a small positive integer, or a very large one when an
underflow occurs) even when there are no actual dirty blocks.  This was
due to a race between the workqueue and map function accessing nr_dirty
in parallel without proper protection.

People were seeing under runs due to a race on increment/decrement of
nr_dirty, see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/6/3/648

Fix this by using an atomic_t for nr_dirty.

dm bufio: fully initialize shrinker

2014-08-19T12:23:37+00:00

commit d8c712ea471ce7a4fd1734ad2211adf8469ddddc upstream.

1d3d4437eae1 ("vmscan: per-node deferred work") added a flags field to
struct shrinker assuming that all shrinkers were zero filled.  The dm
bufio shrinker is not zero filled, which leaves arbitrary kmalloc() data
in flags.  So far the only defined flags bit is SHRINKER_NUMA_AWARE.
But there are proposed patches which add other bits to shrinker.flags
(e.g. memcg awareness).

Rather than simply initializing the shrinker, this patch uses kzalloc()
when allocating the dm_bufio_client to ensure that the embedded shrinker
and any other similar structures are zeroed.

This fixes theoretical over aggressive shrinking of dm bufio objects.
If the uninitialized dm_bufio_client.shrinker.flags contains
SHRINKER_NUMA_AWARE then shrink_slab() would call the dm shrinker for
each numa node rather than just once.  This has been broken since 3.12.

dm thin metadata: do not allow the data block size to change

2014-07-29T15:01:46+00:00

commit 9aec8629ec829fc9403788cd959e05dd87988bd1 upstream.

The block size for the thin-pool's data device must remained fixed for
the life of the thin-pool.  Disallow any attempt to change the
thin-pool's data block size.

It should be noted that attempting to change the data block size via
thin-pool table reload will be ignored as a side-effect of the thin-pool
handover that the thin-pool target does during thin-pool table reload.

Here is an example outcome of attempting to load a thin-pool table that
reduced the thin-pool's data block size from 1024K to 512K.

Before:
kernel: device-mapper: thin: 253:4: growing the data device from 204800 to 409600 blocks

After:
kernel: device-mapper: thin metadata: changing the data block size (from 2048 to 1024) is not supported
kernel: device-mapper: table: 253:4: thin-pool: Error creating metadata object
kernel: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table

dm io: fix a race condition in the wake up code for sync_io

2014-07-18T13:51:24+00:00

commit 10f1d5d111e8aed46a0f1179faf9a3cf422f689e upstream.

There's a race condition between the atomic_dec_and_test(&io->count)
in dec_count() and the waking of the sync_io() thread.  If the thread
is spuriously woken immediately after the decrement it may exit,
making the on stack io struct invalid, yet the dec_count could still
be using it.

Fix this race by using a completion in sync_io() and dec_count().
