commit 3fb632e40d7667d8bedfabc28850ac06d5493f54 upstream.

The sb-&gt;super_offset should be big-endian, but the rdev-&gt;sb_start is in
host byte order, so fix this by adding cpu_to_le64.

commit 1345921393ba23b60d3fcf15933e699232ad25ae upstream.

The sb-&gt;layout is of type __le32, so we shoud use le32_to_cpu.

<title>dm thin: do not queue freed thin mapping for next stage processing</title>

commit 00a0ea33b495ee6149bf5a77ac5807ce87323abb upstream.

process_prepared_discard_passdown_pt1() should cleanup
dm_thin_new_mapping in cases of error.

dm_pool_inc_data_range() can fail trying to get a block reference:

metadata operation 'dm_pool_inc_data_range' failed: error = -61

When dm_pool_inc_data_range() fails, dm thin aborts current metadata
transaction and marks pool as PM_READ_ONLY. Memory for thin mapping
is released as well. However, current thin mapping will be queued
onto next stage as part of queue_passdown_pt2() or passdown_endio().
This dangling thin mapping memory when processed and accessed in
next stage will lead to device mapper crashing.

Code flow without fix:
-&gt; process_prepared_discard_passdown_pt1(m)
   -&gt; dm_thin_remove_range()
   -&gt; discard passdown
      --&gt; passdown_endio(m) queues m onto next stage
   -&gt; dm_pool_inc_data_range() fails, frees memory m
            but does not remove it from next stage queue

-&gt; process_prepared_discard_passdown_pt2(m)
   -&gt; processes freed memory m and crashes

One such stack:

[&lt;ffffffff81530b45&gt;] ret_from_fork+0x25/0x30

The fix is to first take the block ref count for discarded block and
then do a passdown discard of this block. If block ref count fails,
then bail out aborting current metadata transaction, mark pool as
PM_READ_ONLY and also free current thin mapping memory (existing error
handling code) without queueing this thin mapping onto next stage of
processing. If block ref count succeeds, then passdown discard of this
block. Discard callback of passdown_endio() will queue this thin mapping
onto next stage of processing.

Code flow with fix:
-&gt; process_prepared_discard_passdown_pt1(m)
   -&gt; dm_thin_remove_range()
   -&gt; dm_pool_inc_data_range()
      --&gt; if fails, free memory m and bail out
   -&gt; discard passdown
      --&gt; passdown_endio(m) queues m onto next stage

commit 065e519e71b2c1f41936cce75b46b5ab34adb588 upstream.

if called md_set_readonly and set MD_CLOSING bit, the mddev cannot
be opened any more due to the MD_CLOING bit wasn't cleared. Thus it
needs to be cleared in md_ioctl after any call to md_set_readonly()
or do_md_stop().

commit 583da48e388f472e8818d9bb60ef6a1d40ee9f9d upstream.

When growing raid5 device on machine with small memory, there is chance that
mdadm will be killed and the following bug report can be observed. The same
bug could also be reproduced in linux-4.10.6.

The problem is that resize_stripes() releases new stripe_heads before assigning new
slab cache to conf-&gt;slab_cache. If the shrinker function raid5_cache_scan() gets called
after resize_stripes() starting releasing new stripes but right before new slab cache
being assigned, it is possible that these new stripe_heads will be freed with the old
slab_cache which was already been destoryed and that triggers this bug.

commit 583da48e388f472e8818d9bb60ef6a1d40ee9f9d upstream.

When growing raid5 device on machine with small memory, there is chance that
mdadm will be killed and the following bug report can be observed. The same
bug could also be reproduced in linux-4.10.6.

The problem is that resize_stripes() releases new stripe_heads before assigning new
slab cache to conf-&gt;slab_cache. If the shrinker function raid5_cache_scan() gets called
after resize_stripes() starting releasing new stripes but right before new slab cache
being assigned, it is possible that these new stripe_heads will be freed with the old
slab_cache which was already been destoryed and that triggers this bug.

commit 0377a07c7a035e0d033cd8b29f0cb15244c0916a upstream.

When decrementing the reference count for a block, the free count wasn't
being updated if the reference count went to zero.

<title>dm bufio: make the parameter "retain_bytes" unsigned long</title>

commit 13840d38016203f0095cd547b90352812d24b787 upstream.

Change the type of the parameter "retain_bytes" from unsigned to
unsigned long, so that on 64-bit machines the user can set more than
4GiB of data to be retained.

Also, change the type of the variable "count" in the function
"__evict_old_buffers" to unsigned long.  The assignment
"count = c-&gt;n_buffers[LIST_CLEAN] + c-&gt;n_buffers[LIST_DIRTY];"
could result in unsigned long to unsigned overflow and that could result
in buffers not being freed when they should.

While at it, avoid division in get_retain_buffers().  Division is slow,
we can change it to shift because we have precalculated the log2 of
block size.

commit 10add84e276432d9dd8044679a1028dd4084117e upstream.

Otherwise it is possible to trigger crashes due to the metadata being
inaccessible yet these methods don't safely account for that possibility
without these checks.

activate_path() is renamed to activate_path_work() which now calls
activate_or_offline_path().  activate_or_offline_path() will be used
by the next commit.
