2026-07-16block: show operation in error injection rulesJackie Liu
Rules listed through the error_injection debugfs file omit the block operation they match. As a result, rules that differ only in operation are indistinguishable even though op is mandatory when adding a rule.

2026-07-16block: serialize elevator changes for the same queue using a writer lockShin'ichiro Kawasaki
When elevator_change() is called concurrently for the same queue, the elevator_change_done() function runs concurrently as well. This function adds or deletes kobjects for the debugfs entry of the queue. Then the concurrent calls cause memory corruption of the kobjects and result in a process hang. The core part of the elevator switch is protected by queue freeze and q->elevator_lock. However, since the commit 559dc11143eb ("block: move elv_register[unregister]_queue out of elevator_lock"), the elevator_change_done() is not serialized. Hence the memory corruption and the hang. The failures are observed when udev-worker writes to a sysfs queue/scheduler attribute file while the blktests test case block/005 writes to the same attribute file. The failure also can be recreated by running two processes that write to the same queue/scheduler file concurrently. The failure is observed since another commit 370ac285f23a ("block: avoid cpu_hotplug_lock depedency on freeze_lock"). This commit changed the behavior of queue freeze and it unveiled the failure. Fix the failure by changing elv_iosched_store() to acquire update_nr_hwq_lock as the writer lock instead of the reader lock. This serializes the whole elevator switch steps, including the elevator_change_done() call.

2026-07-16block: free copied pages when blk_rq_map_kern() failsJackie Liu
bio_copy_kern() allocates pages that are normally freed by the bio completion callback. If blk_rq_append_bio() rejects the bio, however, blk_rq_map_kern() only drops the bio reference. Since bio_put() does not free pages referenced by the bio vectors, those pages leak. This can happen when the bio exceeds the queue segment constraints or when a later mapping cannot be merged into a request built by earlier calls. Track whether the buffer was copied and free those pages before dropping the rejected bio.

2026-07-15block: do not warn when doing greedy allocation in folio_alloc_greedy()Qu Wenruo
During one of my local btrfs fstests runs, folio_alloc() inside folio_alloc_greedy() triggered an allocation failure report when trying to allocate an order-4 folio. The kernel is from the latest development branch, which is utilizing the IOMAP_DIO_BOUNCE flag for direct writes when the inode requires checksum. Unfortunately I didn't save the full log, only the function and the order. When the IOMAP_DIO_BOUNCE flag is utilized, we will hit the following call chain: bio_iov_iter_bounce_write() |- folio_alloc_greedy() |- folio_alloc(gfp | __GFP_NORETRY, get_order(*size)); However __GFP_NORETRY will still emit an allocation failure report when it fails. And folio_alloc_greedy() will retry with a smaller order anyway, there is no point in emitting that allocation failure report. Append the __GFP_NOWARN flag to folio_alloc() for the larger-order folio attempts.

2026-07-15partitions: aix: bound the lvd scan to one sectorMichael Bommarito
aix_partition() reads the logical-volume descriptor array as a single sector and then scans it: if (numlvs && (d = read_part_sector(state, vgda_sector + 1, &sect))) { struct lvd *p = (struct lvd *)d; ... for (i = 0; foundlvs < numlvs && i < state->limit; i++) { lvip[i].pps_per_lv = be16_to_cpu(p[i].num_lps); p points at a single 512-byte sector, which holds SECTOR_SIZE / sizeof(struct lvd) = 16 entries, but the loop runs until foundlvs reaches the on-disk numlvs or i reaches state->limit (DISK_MAX_PARTS, 256). numlvs is an on-disk __be16 read straight from the volume group descriptor and is not validated, so a crafted AIX image with numlvs larger than 16 and lvd entries whose num_lps fields are zero (so foundlvs never advances) drives the loop to read p[i] well past the end of the read sector buffer. Commit d97a86c170b4 ("partitions: aix.c: off by one bug") hardened the matching write of lvip[lv_ix] in 2014 but left this read loop unbounded. Bound the scan to the number of struct lvd entries that fit in the sector that was actually read.

2026-07-15blk-cgroup: fix leaks and online flag on radix_tree_insert failureTao Cui
When radix_tree_insert() fails in blkg_create(), the error path has two issues: 1. blkg->online is set to true unconditionally, even when the blkg was never fully inserted. Move the assignment inside the success block. 2. The error path calls blkg_put() without first calling percpu_ref_kill(). Because the refcount is still in percpu mode, percpu_ref_put() only does this_cpu_sub() without checking for zero, so blkg_release() is never triggered. This permanently leaks the blkg memory, its percpu iostat, policy data, the parent blkg reference, and the cgroup css reference — the latter preventing the cgroup from ever being destroyed. Fix by replacing blkg_put() with percpu_ref_kill(), matching the pattern used in blkg_destroy().

2026-07-15loop: remove manually added partitions on detachDaan De Meyer
Commit 267ec4d7223a ("loop: fix partition scan race between udev and loop_reread_partitions()") stopped disk_force_media_change() from setting GD_NEED_PART_SCAN because loop devices with LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN rescan partitions explicitly. However, partitions can also be added manually with BLKPG while LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN is clear. When such a loop device is detached, __loop_clr_fd() skips bdev_disk_changed(). Without GD_NEED_PART_SCAN, reopening the unbound device no longer performs the previous lazy cleanup, leaving dead partition devices behind. A subsequent LOOP_CONFIGURE can then fail its partition scan with -EBUSY, as seen in blktests loop/009 after loop/008. Call bdev_disk_changed() unconditionally during __loop_clr_fd(). The disk capacity is already zero and the release path holds open_mutex, so this drops all partitions without rescanning the detached backing file. The new blktests loop/013 case covers this sequence by adding a partition with BLKPG without LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN, detaching the loop device, and checking that the partition is gone when the device is reopened.

2026-07-15block: fix race in blk_time_get_ns() returning 0Mike Waychison
blk_time_get_ns() populates the per-plug cached timestamp and then returns it by re-reading the field: if (!plug->cur_ktime) { plug->cur_ktime = ktime_get_ns(); current->flags |= PF_BLOCK_TS; } return plug->cur_ktime; This is problematic when the compiler emits the final "return plug->cur_ktime" as a reload from memory, after PF_BLOCK_TS has already been set. Since the cached timestamp is now invalidated from finish_task_switch() (fad156c2af22 "block: invalidate cached plug timestamp after task switch"), a task preempted between setting PF_BLOCK_TS and that reload has plug->cur_ktime zeroed by blk_plug_invalidate_ts() when it is scheduled back in. The reload then returns 0. A 0 handed back here is stored as a start timestamp -- e.g. blk_account_io_start() writes it to rq->start_time_ns -- and later subtracted from "now". blk_account_io_done() then adds (now - 0), i.e. roughly the system uptime, to the per-group nsecs[] counters. On an otherwise idle, healthy device this appears as sudden ~uptime-sized jumps in the diskstats time fields (write_ticks/discard_ticks/time_in_queue). The solution is to be explicit in our reads and writes to this field that is preemption volatile. We also add a barrier() to ensure that any setting of PF_BLOCK_TS is ordered to happen after the cur_ktime update. This issue was discovered using AI-assisted kprobes looking for paths that were leaking zeroed timestamps in a live system, based on the observation that we were sometimes seeing uptime-sized jumps in kernel exported counters. This was flagged by NodeDiskIOSaturation prometheus alerts that started firing on all hosts post 7.1.3 kernel upgrade, due to node-exporter now exporting a nonsensical node_disk_io_time_weighted_seconds_total.

2026-07-10block: remove redundant GD_NEED_PART_SCAN in add_disk_final()Connor Williamson
add_disk_final() sets GD_NEED_PART_SCAN before calling bdev_add(), then calls disk_scan_partitions() which sets the flag itself. The early set is redundant and introduces a race. Between bdev_add() and disk_scan_partitions(), concurrent openers (multipathd, blkid, LVM) see the flag in blkdev_get_whole() and trigger bdev_disk_changed(). When disk_scan_partitions() then runs, it calls bdev_disk_changed() again, dropping the partitions the concurrent opener already created before re-adding them, which can result in transient partition disappearances. The race is observable by inserting an msleep() between bdev_add() and disk_scan_partitions() while running concurrent open() calls during device bind. Without artificial delay, it manifests under scheduling pressure during boot on systems with aggressive device scanners (multipathd, systemd-udevd). Therefore, do not set GD_NEED_PART_SCAN in add_disk_final(). Other GD_NEED_PART_SCAN consumers (blkdev_get_whole(), sd_need_revalidate()) should not be affected as the flag is set internally by disk_scan_partitions(). The retry-on-next-open intention from commit e5cfefa97bcc ("block: fix scan partition for exclusively open device again") should also not be affected as the early return paths in disk_scan_partitions() should be unreachable at device registration time (bd_holder is NULL and open_partitions is zero).

2026-07-10drbd: reject data replies with an out-of-range payload sizeMichael Bommarito
recv_dless_read() receives a P_DATA_REPLY from a peer into the bio of an outstanding read request. The peer-supplied payload length reaches it as the signed int data_size, and two peer-controlled inputs can make it negative. With a negotiated data-integrity-alg the digest length is subtracted first, so a reply whose payload is smaller than the digest underflows data_size. With no integrity algorithm (the default) data_size is assigned from the unsigned h95/h100 wire length and drbdd() never bounds it for a payload-carrying command, so a length above INT_MAX casts it negative; this path needs no non-default feature. The bio receive loop then computes expect = min_t(int, data_size, bv_len), which is negative, and drbd_recv_all_warn(mapped, expect) receives with a size_t of SIZE_MAX into the first mapped page. The sibling receive path read_in_block() is not affected: it uses an unsigned size and rejects it against DRBD_MAX_BIO_SIZE before receiving. Reject a data reply whose size is negative after the optional digest subtraction, covering both triggers. Impact: a malicious or man-in-the-middle DRBD peer copies attacker-chosen bytes past a bio page in the receiver, corrupting kernel memory. A node that reads from its peer (a diskless node, or read-balancing to the peer) is exposed in the default configuration; data-integrity-alg is not required.

2026-07-09xen-blkfront: fix double completion of split requests on resumeDoruk Tan Ozturk
When a block request is too large for a single ring entry and the backend does not support indirect descriptors, blkfront splits it across two ring requests. This only happens when the frontend runs on a 64K-page kernel (e.g. arm64): there, even a single-page request may not fit in one ring slot and must be split. blkif_ring_get_request() is called twice and both shadow slots (shadow[id] and shadow[extra_id]) point at the *same* struct request, linked through associated_id. blkif_completion() collapses the pair on the normal completion path, recycling the second slot and completing the request once. The suspend/resume walk in blkfront_resume() does not: it visits every shadow slot with ->request set and calls blk_mq_end_request() or re-queues ->request. For an in-flight split request it therefore processes the shared struct request twice on resume/migration -- a double completion. Skip the secondary slot of a split request in the resume walk so each logical request is processed exactly once. The secondary slot is the linked one (associated_id != NO_ASSOCIATED_ID) that carries no scatter-gather list (num_sg == 0); the first slot always keeps the sg list. The bug is only reachable on suspend/resume or live migration of such a guest, so it has no local reproducer.

queue/wbt_lat_usec controls both the stored WBT latency target and the effective WBT enable state. The old no-op check skipped updates whenever the converted latency matched the stored min_lat_nsec. That check ignored whether the current WBT state already matched the state requested by the write. For a queue disabled by default, attempting to enable WBT by writing the default value through sysfs could return success while the enable state was left unchanged.

2026-06-26blk-mq: bound blk_hctx_poll() to one jiffyAnuj Gupta
blk_hctx_poll() can busy-poll until a completion is found or need_resched() becomes true. On preemptible kernels, the scheduler can set TIF_NEED_RESCHED on the timer tick and preempt the task at IRQ return before the loop condition re-evaluates it. After the context switch, the flag is cleared, so the poller can continue spinning instead of returning to its caller. This can happen with io_uring IOPOLL reads inside iocb_bio_iopoll(), which holds the rcu_read_lock() while calling bio_poll().

2026-06-24block: fix GFP_ flags confusion in bio_integrity_alloc_bufChristoph Hellwig
bio_integrity_alloc_buf usage of GFP_ flags is messed up. For one it mixes GFP_NOFS and GFP_NOIO for neighbouring allocations, but it also makes the allocations fail more often than needed. That code was copied from bio_alloc_bioset which needs to do that so that it can punt to the rescuer workqueue, but none of that is needed for the integrity allocations that either sits in the file system or at the very bottom of the I/O stack. Failing early means we'll do a fully waiting allocation from the mempool ->alloc callback which is usually much larger than required. Fix this by passing a gfp_t so that the file system path can pass GFP_NOFS and the auto-integrity code can pass GFP_NOIO, and don't modify the allocation type except for disabling warnings.

Fix by : - Expand the protect zone. - Use batch_head's device flag's snaphot when no held head_sh->stripe_lock. - Move sh/head_sh->batch_head = NULL to the end of protected zone , and , any concurrent add_all_stripe_bios() grabs sh->stripe_lock now either: - see batch_head != null, and , is rejected by stripe_bio_overlaps() under the lock (no R5_Overlap wait ) , or , - sees batch_head == NULL, only after dev[i].flags has already been set and the prior R5_Overlap waiters worken.

Call break_stripe_batch_list() when the batch is finished, or, a stripe has to be dropped out of the batch. break_stripe_batch_list() reads stripe state several times while request paths can update thost state words concurrently with lockless bitops, which reported by KCSAN.

2026-06-22blk-cgroup: fix UAF in __blkcg_rstat_flush()Michal Koutný
When multiple blkgs in the same blkcg are released concurrently, a use-after-free can occur. The race happens when one blkg's __blkcg_rstat_flush() removes another blkg's iostat entries via llist_del_all(). The second blkg sees an empty list and proceeds to free itself while the first is still iterating over its entries. Move the flush from __blkg_release() (RCU callback) to blkg_release() (before call_rcu). This ensures the RCU grace period waits for any concurrent flush's rcu_read_lock() section to complete before freeing.

2026-06-22block, bfq: protect async queue reset with blkcg locksCen Zhang
Writing 0 to BFQ's low_latency attribute ends weight raising for active, idle and async queues. The async cgroup path walks q->blkg_list, converts each blkg to BFQ policy data and then reads bfqg->async_bfqq and bfqg->async_idle_bfqq. That walk was protected only by bfqd->lock. blkcg release work is serialized by q->blkcg_mutex and q->queue_lock instead, and blkg_free_workfn() can call BFQ's pd_free_fn before it removes blkg->q_node from q->blkg_list. A low_latency reset can therefore still find the blkg on the queue list after the BFQ policy data has been freed. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: BFQ low_latency reset: blkcg blkg release work: 1. bfq_low_latency_store() 1. blkg_free_workfn() takes calls bfq_end_wr(). q->blkcg_mutex. 2. bfq_end_wr_async() walks 2. BFQ pd_free_fn drops the q->blkg_list. final bfq_group reference. 3. blkg_to_bfqg() returns 3. blkg->q_node remains on the stale policy data. q->blkg_list until list_del_init(). 4. bfq_end_wr_async_queues() reads async queue fields. Fix this by taking q->blkcg_mutex and q->queue_lock around the q->blkg_list walk, then taking bfqd->lock before touching BFQ async queues.

2026-06-22nbd: don't warn when reclassifying a busy socket lockDeepanshu Kartikey
nbd_reclassify_socket() warns via WARN_ON_ONCE() if the socket lock is held at the point of reclassification. That assertion was copied from nvme-tcp, where the socket is created internally by the kernel (sock_create_kern()) and is never visible to user space, so the lock is guaranteed to be free. NBD is different: the socket is looked up from a user-supplied fd in nbd_get_socket(), and user space retains that fd. A concurrent syscall on the same socket (or softirq processing taking bh_lock_sock() on a connected TCP socket) can legitimately hold the lock at the instant NBD reclassifies it. sock_allow_reclassification() then returns false and the WARN_ON_ONCE() fires, which turns into a crash under panic_on_warn. This is reachable by simply racing NBD_CMD_CONNECT against socket activity on the same fd, as reported by syzbot. Hitting a held lock here is expected for an externally owned socket and is not a kernel bug, so skip reclassification silently instead of warning. Reclassification is a lockdep-only annotation, so skipping it in the rare racing case is harmless.

2026-06-21md/raid1: honor REQ_NOWAIT when waiting for behind writesAbd-Alrhman Masalkhi
raid1 supports REQ_NOWAIT reads by avoiding waits in the barrier path through wait_read_barrier(). However, a read can still block on a WriteMostly device when the array uses a bitmap and there are outstanding behind writes. In that case raid1 unconditionally calls wait_behind_writes(), which may sleep until all behind writes complete. As a result, a REQ_NOWAIT read can block despite the caller explicitly requesting non-blocking behavior. This ensures that raid1 consistently honors REQ_NOWAIT reads across all paths that may otherwise wait for behind writes.

2026-06-21md/raid5: account discard IOYu Kuai
Raid5 handles discard bios internally through make_discard_request() and never passes them through md_account_bio(). As a result, discard IO is missing the md-device iostat accounting that normal raid5 IO and discard IO in other raid levels get from md_account_bio(). Before accounting the bio, trim the request to the full data stripes that raid5 will actually discard. The first full stripe is the ceiling of the bio start divided by data-stripe sectors, and the last full stripe is the floor of the bio end divided by data-stripe sectors. Account that exact MD logical full-stripe range, then restore the original iterator so bio completion and iostat still cover the original request.

2026-06-21md/raid1: simplify raid1_write_request() error handlingAbd-Alrhman Masalkhi
raid1_write_request() increments rdev->nr_pending before checking the badblocks and then immediately decrements it again when a device is skipped. Move the increment until after the checks succeed so the reference accounting is easier to follow. Consolidate the failure paths so that each error label releases exactly the resources acquired up to that point. err_dec_pending drops pending references and frees the r1bio, while err_allow_barrier handles the barrier release before returning. When a REQ_ATOMIC write cannot be satisfied due to a badblock range, complete the bio with BLK_STS_NOTSUPP rather than reporting an I/O error, since the operation is unsupported rather than having failed during I/O. Rename max_write_sectors to max_sectors and remove the redundant local copy.

For the incoming IOMAP_DIO_BOUNCE flag usage inside btrfs, it's pretty easy to hit short copy inside bio_iov_iter_bounce_write(). This is because btrfs has disabled page fault to avoid certain deadlock during direct writes, and instead btrfs manually fault in the pages then retry. And inside bio_iov_iter_bounce_write(), if we hit a short write, we didn't revert the iov_iter, which can cause problems like unexpected garbage for the next retry. Revert the iov_iter after a short copy. One thing to note is that, the folio is allocated then immediately queued into the bio, so the proper revert size should be (bi_size - this_len + copied).

2026-06-16block: invalidate cached plug timestamp after task switchUsama Arif
blk_time_get_ns() caches ktime_get_ns() in current->plug->cur_ktime and marks the task with PF_BLOCK_TS. That cache is only valid while the task keeps running; if the task is switched out, wall-clock time advances and the cached value must not be reused when the task runs again. The existing invalidation covers explicit plug flushes through __blk_flush_plug(), and the schedule() / rtmutex paths through sched_update_worker(). It does not cover in-kernel preemption paths such as preempt_schedule(), preempt_schedule_notrace(), and preempt_schedule_irq(), which enter __schedule(SM_PREEMPT) directly and return without calling sched_update_worker(). As a result, a task preempted while holding a plug with PF_BLOCK_TS set can reuse a stale plug->cur_ktime after it is scheduled back in. blk-iocost then consumes that stale timestamp through ioc_now(), producing stale vnow values for throttle decisions, and through ioc_rqos_done(), inflating on-queue time and feeding false missed-QoS samples into vrate adjustment. Move the schedule-side invalidation to finish_task_switch(), which runs for the scheduled-in task after every actual context switch regardless of which schedule entry point was used. Keep __blk_flush_plug() as the explicit flush/finish-plug invalidation path, and remove only the PF_BLOCK_TS handling from sched_update_worker().

Clear PF_BLOCK_TS alongside that assignment so callers can rely on "PF_BLOCK_TS set implies current->plug != NULL" and dereference current->plug unguarded.
