2015-08-12md/raid1: fix test for 'was read error from last working device'.NeilBrown
commit 34cab6f42003cb06f48f86a86652984dec338ae9 upstream. When we get a read error from the last working device, we don't try to repair it, and don't fail the device. We simple report a read error to the caller. However the current test for 'is this the last working device' is wrong. When there is only one fully working device, it assumes that a non-faulty device is that device. However a spare which is rebuilding would be non-faulty but so not the only working device. So change the test from "!Faulty" to "In_sync". If ->degraded says there is only one fully working device and this device is in_sync, this must be the one. This bug has existed since we allowed read_balance to read from a recovering spare in v3.0 Reported-and-tested-by: Alexander Lyakas <alex.bolshoy@gmail.com> Fixes: 76073054c95b ("md/raid1: clean up read_balance.")

2015-05-09dm snapshot: fix a possible invalid memory access on unloadMikulas Patocka
commit 22aa66a3ee5b61e0f4a0bfeabcaa567861109ec3 upstream. When the snapshot target is unloaded, snapshot_dtr() waits until pending_exceptions_count drops to zero. Then, it destroys the snapshot. Therefore, the function that decrements pending_exceptions_count should not touch the snapshot structure after the decrement. pending_complete() calls free_pending_exception(), which decrements pending_exceptions_count, and then it performs up_write(&s->lock) and it calls retry_origin_bios() which dereferences s->origin. These two memory accesses to the fields of the snapshot may touch the dm_snapshot struture after it is freed. This patch moves the call to free_pending_exception() to the end of pending_complete(), so that the snapshot will not be destroyed while pending_complete() is in progress.

2015-05-09dm: fix a race condition in dm_get_mdMikulas Patocka
commit 2bec1f4a8832e74ebbe859f176d8a9cb20dd97f4 upstream. The function dm_get_md finds a device mapper device with a given dev_t, increases the reference count and returns the pointer. dm_get_md calls dm_find_md, dm_find_md takes _minor_lock, finds the device, tests that the device doesn't have DMF_DELETING or DMF_FREEING flag, drops _minor_lock and returns pointer to the device. dm_get_md then calls dm_get. dm_get calls BUG if the device has the DMF_FREEING flag, otherwise it increments the reference count. There is a possible race condition - after dm_find_md exits and before dm_get is called, there are no locks held, so the device may disappear or DMF_FREEING flag may be set, which results in BUG. To fix this bug, we need to call dm_get while we hold _minor_lock. This patch renames dm_find_md to dm_get_md and changes it so that it calls dm_get while holding the lock.

2015-05-09dm io: reject unsupported DISCARD requests with EOPNOTSUPPDarrick J. Wong
commit 37527b869207ad4c208b1e13967d69b8bba1fbf9 upstream. I created a dm-raid1 device backed by a device that supports DISCARD and another device that does NOT support DISCARD with the following dm configuration: # echo '0 2048 mirror core 1 512 2 /dev/sda 0 /dev/sdb 0' | dmsetup create moo # lsblk -D NAME DISC-ALN DISC-GRAN DISC-MAX DISC-ZERO sda 0 4K 1G 0 `-moo (dm-0) 0 4K 1G 0 sdb 0 0B 0B 0 `-moo (dm-0) 0 4K 1G 0 Notice that the mirror device /dev/mapper/moo advertises DISCARD support even though one of the mirror halves doesn't. If I issue a DISCARD request (via fstrim, mount -o discard, or ioctl BLKDISCARD) through the mirror, kmirrord gets stuck in an infinite loop in do_region() when it tries to issue a DISCARD request to sdb. The problem is that when we call do_region() against sdb, num_sectors is set to zero because q->limits.max_discard_sectors is zero. Therefore, "remaining" never decreases and the loop never terminates. To fix this: before entering the loop, check for the combination of REQ_DISCARD and no discard and return -EOPNOTSUPP to avoid hanging up the mirror device. This bug was found by the unfortunate coincidence of pvmove and a discard operation in the RHEL 6.5 kernel; upstream is also affected. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

commit f2ed51ac64611d717d1917820a01930174c2f236 upstream. It may be possible that a device claims discard support but it rejects discards with -EOPNOTSUPP. It happens when using loopback on ext2/ext3 filesystem driven by the ext4 driver. It may also happen if the underlying devices are moved from one disk on another. If discard error happens, we reject the bio with -EOPNOTSUPP, but we do not degrade the array.

commit 40d43c4b4cac4c2647bf07110d7b07d35f399a84 upstream. The dm-raid superblock (struct dm_raid_superblock) is padded to 512 bytes and that size is being used to read it in from the metadata device into one preallocated page. Reading or writing this on a 512-byte sector device works fine but on a 4096-byte sector device this fails. Set the dm-raid superblock's size to the logical block size of the metadata device, because IO at that size is guaranteed too work. Also add a size check to avoid silent partial metadata loss in case the superblock should ever grow past the logical block size or PAGE_SIZE.

2014-12-14dm bufio: change __GFP_IO to __GFP_FS in shrinker callbacksMikulas Patocka
commit 9d28eb12447ee08bb5d1e8bb3195cf20e1ecd1c0 upstream. The shrinker uses gfp flags to indicate what kind of operation can the driver wait for. If __GFP_IO flag is present, the driver can wait for block I/O operations, if __GFP_FS flag is present, the driver can wait on operations involving the filesystem. dm-bufio tested for __GFP_IO. However, dm-bufio can run on a loop block device that makes calls into the filesystem. If __GFP_IO is present and __GFP_FS isn't, dm-bufio could still block on filesystem operations if it runs on a loop block device. The change from __GFP_IO to __GFP_FS supposedly fixes one observed (though unreproducible) deadlock involving dm-bufio and loop device.

2014-12-14dm bufio: update last_accessed when relinking a bufferJoe Thornber
commit eb76faf53b1ff7a77ce3f78cc98ad392ac70c2a0 upstream. The 'last_accessed' member of the dm_buffer structure was only set when the the buffer was created. This led to each buffer being discarded after dm_bufio_max_age time even if it was used recently. In practice this resulted in all thinp metadata being evicted soon after being read -- this is particularly problematic for metadata intensive workloads like multithreaded small random IO. 'last_accessed' is now updated each time the buffer is moved to the head of the LRU list, so the buffer is now properly discarded if it was not used in dm_bufio_max_age time.

2014-11-05dm crypt: fix access beyond the end of allocated spaceMikulas Patocka
commit d49ec52ff6ddcda178fc2476a109cf1bd1fa19ed upstream. The DM crypt target accesses memory beyond allocated space resulting in a crash on 32 bit x86 systems. This bug is very old (it dates back to 2.6.25 commit 3a7f6c990ad04 "dm crypt: use async crypto"). However, this bug was masked by the fact that kmalloc rounds the size up to the next power of two. This bug wasn't exposed until 3.17-rc1 commit 298a9fa08a ("dm crypt: use per-bio data"). By switching to using per-bio data there was no longer any padding beyond the end of a dm-crypt allocated memory block. To minimize allocation overhead dm-crypt puts several structures into one block allocated with kmalloc. The block holds struct ablkcipher_request, cipher-specific scratch pad (crypto_ablkcipher_reqsize(any_tfm(cc))), struct dm_crypt_request and an initialization vector. The variable dmreq_start is set to offset of struct dm_crypt_request within this memory block. dm-crypt allocates the block with this size: cc->dmreq_start + sizeof(struct dm_crypt_request) + cc->iv_size. When accessing the initialization vector, dm-crypt uses the function iv_of_dmreq, which performs this calculation: ALIGN((unsigned long)(dmreq + 1), crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) + 1). dm-crypt allocated "cc->iv_size" bytes beyond the end of dm_crypt_request structure. However, when dm-crypt accesses the initialization vector, it takes a pointer to the end of dm_crypt_request, aligns it, and then uses it as the initialization vector. If the end of dm_crypt_request is not aligned on a crypto_ablkcipher_alignmask(any_tfm(cc)) boundary the alignment causes the initialization vector to point beyond the allocated space. Fix this bug by calculating the variable iv_size_padding and adding it to the allocated size. Also correct the alignment of dm_crypt_request. struct dm_crypt_request is specific to dm-crypt (it isn't used by the crypto subsystem at all), so it is aligned on __alignof__(struct dm_crypt_request).

2014-09-13md/raid6: avoid data corruption during recovery of double-degraded RAID6NeilBrown
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().

2014-09-13md/raid1,raid10: always abort recover on write error.NeilBrown
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.

2014-08-06md: flush writes before starting a recovery.NeilBrown
commit 133d4527eab8d199a62eee6bd433f0776842df2e upstream. When we write to a degraded array which has a bitmap, we make sure the relevant bit in the bitmap remains set when the write completes (so a 're-add' can quickly rebuilt a temporarily-missing device). If, immediately after such a write starts, we incorporate a spare, commence recovery, and skip over the region where the write is happening (because the 'needs recovery' flag isn't set yet), then that write will not get to the new device. Once the recovery finishes the new device will be trusted, but will have incorrect data, leading to possible corruption. We cannot set the 'needs recovery' flag when we start the write as we do not know easily if the write will be "degraded" or not. That depends on details of the particular raid level and particular write request. This patch fixes a corruption issue of long standing and so it suitable for any -stable kernel. It applied correctly to 3.0 at least and will minor editing to earlier kernels.

Normally a resync will not be requested if ->ro is set, but if an array is stopped while a reshape is on-going, then when the array is started, the reshape will be restarted.

2014-04-02md/raid5: Fix CPU hotplug callback registrationOleg Nesterov
commit 789b5e0315284463617e106baad360cb9e8db3ac upstream. Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown below: get_online_cpus(); for_each_online_cpu(cpu) init_cpu(cpu); register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier); put_online_cpus(); This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently with CPU hotplug operations). Interestingly, the raid5 code can actually prevent double initialization and hence can use the following simplified form of callback registration: register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier); get_online_cpus(); for_each_online_cpu(cpu) init_cpu(cpu); put_online_cpus(); A hotplug operation that occurs between registering the notifier and calling get_online_cpus(), won't disrupt anything, because the code takes care to perform the memory allocations only once. So reorganize the code in raid5 this way to fix the deadlock with callback registration.

2014-04-02md/raid5: fix long-standing problem with bitmap handling on write failure.NeilBrown
commit 9f97e4b128d2ea90a5f5063ea0ee3b0911f4c669 upstream. Before a write starts we set a bit in the write-intent bitmap. When the write completes we clear that bit if the write was successful to all devices. However if the write wasn't fully successful we should not clear the bit. If the faulty drive is subsequently re-added, the fact that the bit is still set ensure that we will re-write the data that is missing. This logic is mediated by the STRIPE_DEGRADED flag - we only clear the bitmap bit when this flag is not set. Currently we correctly set the flag if a write starts when some devices are failed or missing. But we do *not* set the flag if some device failed during the write attempt. This is wrong and can result in clearing the bit inappropriately. So: set the flag when a write fails. This bug has been present since bitmaps were introduces, so the fix is suitable for any -stable kernel.

2014-04-02dm sysfs: fix a module unload raceMikulas Patocka
commit 2995fa78e423d7193f3b57835f6c1c75006a0315 upstream. This reverts commit be35f48610 ("dm: wait until embedded kobject is released before destroying a device") and provides an improved fix. The kobject release code that calls the completion must be placed in a non-module file, otherwise there is a module unload race (if the process calling dm_kobject_release is preempted and the DM module unloaded after the completion is triggered, but before dm_kobject_release returns). To fix this race, this patch moves the completion code to dm-builtin.c which is always compiled directly into the kernel if BLK_DEV_DM is selected. The patch introduces a new dm_kobject_holder structure, its purpose is to keep the completion and kobject in one place, so that it can be accessed from non-module code without the need to export the layout of struct mapped_device to that code.

2014-04-02dm: wait until embedded kobject is released before destroying a deviceMikulas Patocka
commit be35f486108227e10fe5d96fd42fb2b344c59983 upstream. There may be other parts of the kernel holding a reference on the dm kobject. We must wait until all references are dropped before deallocating the mapped_device structure. The dm_kobject_release method signals that all references are dropped via completion. But dm_kobject_release doesn't free the kobject (which is embedded in the mapped_device structure). This is the sequence of operations: * when destroying a DM device, call kobject_put from dm_sysfs_exit * wait until all users stop using the kobject, when it happens the release method is called * the release method signals the completion and should return without delay * the dm device removal code that waits on the completion continues * the dm device removal code drops the dm_mod reference the device had * the dm device removal code frees the mapped_device structure that contains the kobject Using kobject this way should avoid the module unload race that was mentioned at the beginning of this thread: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/1/4/83 Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

commit 4cb57ab4a2e61978f3a9b7d4f53988f30d61c27f upstream. Some module parameters in dm-bufio are read-only. These parameters inform the user about memory consumption. They are not supposed to be changed by the user. However, despite being read-only, these parameters can be set on modprobe or insmod command line, for example: modprobe dm-bufio current_allocated_bytes=12345 The kernel doesn't expect that these variables can be non-zero at module initialization and if the user sets them, it results in BUG.

2014-01-03dm snapshot: avoid snapshot space leak on crashMikulas Patocka
commit 230c83afdd9cd384348475bea1e14b80b3b6b1b8 upstream. There is a possible leak of snapshot space in case of crash. The reason for space leaking is that chunks in the snapshot device are allocated sequentially, but they are finished (and stored in the metadata) out of order, depending on the order in which copying finished. For example, supposed that the metadata contains the following records SUPERBLOCK METADATA (blocks 0 ... 250) DATA 0 DATA 1 DATA 2 ... DATA 250 Now suppose that you allocate 10 new data blocks 251-260. Suppose that copying of these blocks finish out of order (block 260 finished first and the block 251 finished last). Now, the snapshot device looks like this: SUPERBLOCK METADATA (blocks 0 ... 250, 260, 259, 258, 257, 256) DATA 0 DATA 1 DATA 2 ... DATA 250 DATA 251 DATA 252 DATA 253 DATA 254 DATA 255 METADATA (blocks 255, 254, 253, 252, 251) DATA 256 DATA 257 DATA 258 DATA 259 DATA 260 Now, if the machine crashes after writing the first metadata block but before writing the second metadata block, the space for areas DATA 250-255 is leaked, it contains no valid data and it will never be used in the future. This patch makes dm-snapshot complete exceptions in the same order they were allocated, thus fixing this bug. Note: when backporting this patch to the stable kernel, change the version field in the following way: * if version in the stable kernel is {1, 11, 1}, change it to {1, 12, 0} * if version in the stable kernel is {1, 10, 0} or {1, 10, 1}, change it to {1, 10, 2} Userspace reads the version to determine if the bug was fixed, so the version change is needed.

2014-01-03dm mpath: fix race condition between multipath_dtr and pg_init_doneShiva Krishna Merla
commit 954a73d5d3073df2231820c718fdd2f18b0fe4c9 upstream. Whenever multipath_dtr() is happening we must prevent queueing any further path activation work. Implement this by adding a new 'pg_init_disabled' flag to the multipath structure that denotes future path activation work should be skipped if it is set. By disabling pg_init and then re-enabling in flush_multipath_work() we also avoid the potential for pg_init to be initiated while suspending an mpath device. Without this patch a race condition exists that may result in a kernel panic: 1) If after pg_init_done() decrements pg_init_in_progress to 0, a call to wait_for_pg_init_completion() assumes there are no more pending path management commands. 2) If pg_init_required is set by pg_init_done(), due to retryable mode_select errors, then process_queued_ios() will again queue the path activation work. 3) If free_multipath() completes before activate_path() work is called a NULL pointer dereference like the following can be seen when accessing members of the recently destructed multipath: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000090 RIP: 0010:[<ffffffffa003db1b>] [<ffffffffa003db1b>] activate_path+0x1b/0x30 [dm_multipath] [<ffffffff81090ac0>] worker_thread+0x170/0x2a0 [<ffffffff81096c80>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x40 [switch to disabling pg_init in flush_multipath_work & header edits by Mike Snitzer] Signed-off-by: Shiva Krishna Merla <shivakrishna.merla@netapp.com> Reviewed-by: Krishnasamy Somasundaram <somasundaram.krishnasamy@netapp.com> Tested-by: Speagle Andy <Andy.Speagle@netapp.com> Acked-by: Junichi Nomura <j-nomura@ce.jp.nec.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com> [bwh: Backported to 3.2: - Adjust context - Bump version to 1.3.2 not 1.6.0] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>

2013-11-28dm snapshot: fix data corruptionMikulas Patocka
commit e9c6a182649f4259db704ae15a91ac820e63b0ca upstream. This patch fixes a particular type of data corruption that has been encountered when loading a snapshot's metadata from disk. When we allocate a new chunk in persistent_prepare, we increment ps->next_free and we make sure that it doesn't point to a metadata area by further incrementing it if necessary. When we load metadata from disk on device activation, ps->next_free is positioned after the last used data chunk. However, if this last used data chunk is followed by a metadata area, ps->next_free is positioned erroneously to the metadata area. A newly-allocated chunk is placed at the same location as the metadata area, resulting in data or metadata corruption. This patch changes the code so that ps->next_free skips the metadata area when metadata are loaded in function read_exceptions. The patch also moves a piece of code from persistent_prepare_exception to a separate function skip_metadata to avoid code duplication.

commit 60e356f381954d79088d0455e357db48cfdd6857 upstream. LVM2, since version 2.02.96, creates origin with zero size, then loads the snapshot driver and then loads the origin. Consequently, the snapshot driver sees the origin size zero and sets the hash size to the lower bound 64. Such small hash table causes performance degradation. This patch changes it so that the hash size is determined by the size of snapshot volume, not minimum of origin and snapshot size. It doesn't make sense to set the snapshot size significantly larger than the origin size, so we do not need to take origin size into account when calculating the hash size.

Without that fix, the following scenario could happen: - RAID1 with drives A and B; drive B was freshly-added and is rebuilding - Drive A fails - WRITE request arrives to the array. It is failed by drive A, so r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_WriteError, but the rebuilding drive B succeeds in writing it, so the same r1_bio is marked as R1BIO_Uptodate. - r1_bio arrives to handle_write_finished, badblocks are disabled, md_error()->error() does nothing because we don't fail the last drive of raid1 - raid_end_bio_io() calls call_bio_endio() - As a result, in call_bio_endio(): if (!test_bit(R1BIO_Uptodate, &r1_bio->state)) clear_bit(BIO_UPTODATE, &bio->bi_flags); this code doesn't clear the BIO_UPTODATE flag, and the whole master WRITE succeeds, back to the upper layer. So we returned success to the upper layer, even though we had written the data onto the rebuilding drive only.

2013-05-30dm bufio: avoid a possible __vmalloc deadlockMikulas Patocka
commit 502624bdad3dba45dfaacaf36b7d83e39e74b2d2 upstream. This patch uses memalloc_noio_save to avoid a possible deadlock in dm-bufio. (it could happen only with large block size, at most PAGE_SIZE << MAX_ORDER (typically 8MiB). __vmalloc doesn't fully respect gfp flags. The specified gfp flags are used for allocation of requested pages, structures vmap_area, vmap_block and vm_struct and the radix tree nodes. However, the kernel pagetables are allocated always with GFP_KERNEL. Thus the allocation of pagetables can recurse back to the I/O layer and cause a deadlock. This patch uses the function memalloc_noio_save to set per-process PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and the function memalloc_noio_restore to restore it. When this flag is set, all allocations in the process are done with implied GFP_NOIO flag, thus the deadlock can't happen. This should be backported to stable kernels, but they don't have the PF_MEMALLOC_NOIO flag and memalloc_noio_save/memalloc_noio_restore functions. So, PF_MEMALLOC should be set and restored instead.

2013-03-27dm thin: fix discard corruptionJoe Thornber
commit f046f89a99ccfd9408b94c653374ff3065c7edb3 upstream. Fix a bug in dm_btree_remove that could leave leaf values with incorrect reference counts. The effect of this was that removal of a shared block could result in the space maps thinking the block was no longer used. More concretely, if you have a thin device and a snapshot of it, sending a discard to a shared region of the thin could corrupt the snapshot. Thinp uses a 2-level nested btree to store it's mappings. This first level is indexed by thin device, and the second level by logical block. Often when we're removing an entry in this mapping tree we need to rebalance nodes, which can involve shadowing them, possibly creating a copy if the block is shared. If we do create a copy then children of that node need to have their reference counts incremented. In this way reference counts percolate down the tree as shared trees diverge. The rebalance functions were incrementing the children at the appropriate time, but they were always assuming the children were internal nodes. This meant the leaf values (in our case packed block/flags entries) were not being incremented.

2013-03-20dm: fix truncated status stringsMikulas Patocka
commit fd7c092e711ebab55b2688d3859d95dfd0301f73 upstream. Avoid returning a truncated table or status string instead of setting the DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG when the last target of a table fills the buffer. When processing a table or status request, the function retrieve_status calls ti->type->status. If ti->type->status returns non-zero, retrieve_status assumes that the buffer overflowed and sets DM_BUFFER_FULL_FLAG. However, targets don't return non-zero values from their status method on overflow. Most targets returns always zero. If a buffer overflow happens in a target that is not the last in the table, it gets noticed during the next iteration of the loop in retrieve_status; but if a buffer overflow happens in the last target, it goes unnoticed and erroneously truncated data is returned. In the current code, the targets behave in the following way: * dm-crypt returns -ENOMEM if there is not enough space to store the key, but it returns 0 on all other overflows. * dm-thin returns errors from the status method if a disk error happened. This is incorrect because retrieve_status doesn't check the error code, it assumes that all non-zero values mean buffer overflow. * all the other targets always return 0. This patch changes the ti->type->status function to return void (because most targets don't use the return code). Overflow is detected in retrieve_status: if the status method fills up the remaining space completely, it is assumed that buffer overflow happened.

commit a64685399181780998281fe07309a94b25dd24c3 upstream. You cannot resize a RAID0 array (in terms of making the devices bigger), but the code doesn't entirely stop you. So: disable setting of the available size on each device for RAID0 and Linear devices. This must not change as doing so can change the effective layout of data. Make sure that the size that raid0_size() reports is accurate, but rounding devices sizes to chunk sizes. As the device sizes cannot change now, this isn't so important, but it is best to be safe. Without this change: mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -z max mdadm --grow /dev/md0 -Z max then read to the end of the array can cause a BUG in a RAID0 array.
