commit 857de6e00778738dc3d61f75acbac35bdc48e533 upstream.

The device handler needs to check if a given queue belongs to a scsi
device; only then does it make sense to attach a device handler.

commit fd3fc0b4d7305fa7246622dcc0dec69c42443f45 upstream.

Don't crash the machine just because of an empty transfer. Use WARN_ON()
combined with returning an error.

Found by Dmitry Vyukov and syzkaller.

[ Changed to "WARN_ON_ONCE()". Al has a patch that should fix the root
  cause, but a BUG_ON() is not acceptable in any case, and a WARN_ON()
  might still be a cause of excessive log spamming.

  NOTE! If this warning ever triggers, we may end up leaking resources,
  since this doesn't bother to try to clean the command up. So this
  WARN_ON_ONCE() triggering does imply real problems. But BUG_ON() is
  much worse.

  People really need to stop using BUG_ON() for "this shouldn't ever
  happen". It makes pretty much any bug worse.     - Linus ]

<title>scsi_lib: correctly retry failed zero length REQ_TYPE_FS commands</title>

commit a621bac3044ed6f7ec5fa0326491b2d4838bfa93 upstream.

When SCSI was written, all commands coming from the filesystem
(REQ_TYPE_FS commands) had data.  This meant that our signal for needing
to complete the command was the number of bytes completed being equal to
the number of bytes in the request.  Unfortunately, with the advent of
flush barriers, we can now get zero length REQ_TYPE_FS commands, which
confuse this logic because they satisfy the condition every time.  This
means they never get retried even for retryable conditions, like UNIT
ATTENTION because we complete them early assuming they're done.  Fix
this by special casing the early completion condition to recognise zero
length commands with errors and let them drop through to the retry code.

<title>mm, page_alloc: rename __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM</title>

<content type='text'>
__GFP_WAIT was used to signal that the caller was in atomic context and
could not sleep.  Now it is possible to distinguish between true atomic
context and callers that are not willing to sleep.  The latter should
clear __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM so kswapd will still wake.  As clearing
__GFP_WAIT behaves differently, there is a risk that people will clear the
wrong flags.  This patch renames __GFP_WAIT to __GFP_RECLAIM to clearly
indicate what it does -- setting it allows all reclaim activity, clearing
them prevents it.

blk_mq_complete_request may be a no-op if the request has already
been completed by others means (e.g. a timeout or cancellation), but
currently drivers have to set rq-&gt;errors before calling
blk_mq_complete_request, which might leave us with the wrong error value.

Add an error parameter to blk_mq_complete_request so that we can
defer setting rq-&gt;errors until we known we won the race to complete the
request.

internal details. But scsi_mode_sense() never checks for
any pending unit attentions, so we're getting annoying error

and a possible wrong decision for device cache handling.

Fix a memory leak with scsi-mq triggered by commands with large data
transfer length.

__sg_alloc_table() sets both table-&gt;nents and table-&gt;orig_nents to the
same value.  When the scatterlist is DMA-mapped, table-&gt;nents is
overwritten with the (possibly smaller) size of the DMA-mapped
scatterlist, while table-&gt;orig_nents retains the original size of the
allocated scatterlist.  scsi_free_sgtable() should therefore check
orig_nents instead of nents, and all code that initializes sdb-&gt;table
without calling __sg_alloc_table() should set both nents and orig_nents.

SCSI transport drivers and SCSI LLDs block a SCSI device if the
transport layer is not operational. This means that in this state
no requests should be processed, even if the REQ_PREEMPT flag has
been set. This patch avoids that a rescan shortly after a cable
pull sporadically triggers the following kernel oops:

SCSI transport drivers and SCSI LLDs block a SCSI device if the
transport layer is not operational. This means that in this state
no requests should be processed, even if the REQ_PREEMPT flag has
been set. This patch avoids that a rescan shortly after a cable
pull sporadically triggers the following kernel oops:
