5 daysblock: Make WBT latency writes honor enable stateGuzebing
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. Treat a write as a no-op only when both the stored latency and the effective WBT enabled state already match the converted value.

8 daysblock: split bdev_yield_claim() out of bdev_fput()Christian Brauner
bdev_fput() yields the holder claim and then closes the file, which is a deferred operation. Split the yield half into bdev_yield_claim() so a caller can give up the holder while the file - and therefore the block device - is still open, act on the device, and only then bdev_fput(). A filesystem that made a device unfreezable for a membership change with bdev_deny_freeze() undoes the deny on release with bdev_yield_claim(bdev_file); bdev_allow_freeze(file_bdev(bdev_file)); bdev_fput(bdev_file); Re-allowing only after the holder is yielded avoids stranding the filesystem on a racing freeze, and doing it while the file is still open avoids touching the block device after bdev_fput(). bdev_fput() yields again, which is a no-op once the claim has already been given up.

8 daysblock: allow making a block device unfreezableChristian Brauner
Add bdev_deny_freeze() and bdev_allow_freeze(), modeled on deny_write_access()/allow_write_access(). bd_fsfreeze_count becomes a signed counter: > 0 counts active freezes, < 0 counts deniers, and the two regimes are mutually exclusive. bdev_freeze() refuses with -EBUSY while a deny is held, and bdev_deny_freeze() refuses while the device is frozen. A filesystem that mutates a device's membership (a btrfs device add, remove or replace) denies freezing on the device for the duration, so a claim a freeze walk might act on is never added or torn down behind the freezer's back. The deny/allow helpers are a single atomic on bd_fsfreeze_count and take no lock, so they can be called while holding s_umount without inverting against bdev_freeze()'s bd_fsfreeze_mutex -> s_umount order.

11 daysblk-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(). If another poller on the same polled queue drains the available completions, this poller may repeatedly find no completions and remain inside the RCU read-side critical section long enough to trigger RCU stall reports: rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: rcu: Tasks blocked on level-1 rcu_node (CPUs 0-9): P3961 rcu: (detected by 3, t=60002 jiffies, g=18533, q=4943 ncpus=20) task:fio state:R running task stack:0 pid:3961 Call Trace: <TASK> ? nvme_poll+0x36/0xa0 [nvme] ? blk_hctx_poll+0x39/0x90 ? blk_mq_poll+0x30/0x60 ? bio_poll+0x87/0x170 ? iocb_bio_iopoll+0x32/0x50 ? io_uring_classic_poll+0x25/0x50 ? io_do_iopoll+0x216/0x420 ? __do_sys_io_uring_enter+0x2c7/0x7c0 Reproducible with: fio -filename=/dev/nvme0n1 -direct=1 -size=4g -rw=randread \ --numjobs=32 -bs=4K -ioengine=io_uring -hipri=1 -iodepth=1 \ --registerfiles=1 --group_reporting --thread Record the starting jiffy and exit the loop once jiffies has advanced.

13 daysblock: 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.

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. The mutex serializes against policy-data free and queue_lock stabilizes the list. Move the async reset out of bfq_end_wr()'s existing bfqd->lock critical section so the lock order matches blkcg policy callbacks.

For the incoming usage of IOMAP_DIO_BOUNCE in btrfs, btrfs has set iov_iter::nofault to prevent deadlock when a page fault is needed to read out the buffer. However bio_iov_iter_bounce_write() doesn't respect iov_iter::nofault flag, and just call a plain copy_from_iter() so it can still trigger page fault and cause deadlock in btrfs.

2026-06-16block: revert the iov_iter after a short copy in bio_iov_iter_bounce_write()Qu Wenruo
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).

2026-06-09block: propagate in_flight to whole disk on partition I/OTang Yizhou
Now when I/O is submitted to a partition, the per-CPU in_flight[] counter is incremented only on the partition's block_device, not on the underlying whole disk. This leads to a problem which can be shown by a fio test: lsblk NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINTS mydev 252:1 0 20G 0 disk └─mydev1 259:0 0 10G 0 part iostat -xp 1 Device r/s rkB/s ... aqu-sz %util mydev 128153.00 512612.00 ... 13.22 72.20 mydev1 128154.00 512616.00 ... 13.22 100.00 %util is different between mydev and mydev1, which is unexpected. This is the cumulative effect of a series of patches. The root cause is commit e016b78201a2 ("block: return just one value from part_in_flight"), which deleted the branch in part_in_flight() that aggregated the whole-disk in_flight count on top of the partition's. Then the second commit is commit 10ec5e86f9b8 ("block: merge part_{inc,dev}_in_flight into their only callers"), which folded the whole-disk in_flight accounting into generic_start_io_acct() and generic_end_io_acct(). Those two helpers were then removed by commit e722fff238bb ("block: remove generic_{start,end}_io_acct"), and from that point on the whole disk's in_flight is no longer accounted at all. In update_io_ticks(), if calling bdev_count_inflight() finds that the inflight value of the whole device is 0, the accumulation of io_ticks will be skipped, causing the reported util% value to be underestimated. Fix it by restoring the whole-disk in_flight accounting.

2026-06-08block: optimize I/O merge hot path with unlikely() hintsSteven Feng
Remove redundant '== false' comparisons and add unlikely() branch prediction hints in block I/O merge path functions. These functions (ll_new_hw_segment, ll_merge_requests_fn, and blk_rq_merge_ok) are executed on every I/O request merge attempt, making them critical hot paths. Data integrity check failures are rare events, so marking these conditions as unlikely() helps the CPU optimize the common case by improving branch prediction. Changes: - Replace 'func() == false' with 'unlikely(!func())' for better code style and branch prediction This micro-optimization reduces branch misprediction penalties in high-frequency I/O merge paths.

2026-06-08partitions: aix: bound the pp_count scan to the ppe arrayBryam Vargas
aix_partition() reads the physical volume descriptor into a fixed-size struct pvd and then scans its physical-partition-extent array: int numpps = be16_to_cpu(pvd->pp_count); ... for (i = 0; i < numpps; i += 1) { struct ppe *p = pvd->ppe + i; ... lp_ix = be16_to_cpu(p->lp_ix); pvd points at a single kmalloc()'d struct pvd whose ppe[] member holds a fixed ARRAY_SIZE(pvd->ppe) (1016) entries, but the loop runs up to the on-disk pp_count. pp_count is an unvalidated __be16 read straight from the descriptor, so a crafted AIX image with pp_count larger than 1016 drives the loop to read pvd->ppe[i] past the end of the allocation (up to 65535 entries, ~2 MB out of bounds). The partition scan runs without mounting anything, when a block device with a crafted AIX/IBM partition table appears (an attacker-supplied image attached with losetup -P, or a device auto-scanned by udev), via msdos_partition() -> aix_partition(). Clamp the scan to the number of entries the ppe[] array can hold.

2026-06-05block: Add WQ_PERCPU to alloc_workqueue usersMarco Crivellari
This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in: commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq") commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag") The refactoring is going to alter the default behavior of alloc_workqueue() to be unbound by default. With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND), any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND must now use WQ_PERCPU. For more details see the Link tag below. In order to keep alloc_workqueue() behavior identical, explicitly request WQ_PERCPU.

2026-06-03mm: simplify the mempool_alloc_bulk APIChristoph Hellwig
The mempool_alloc_bulk was modelled after the alloc_pages_bulk API, including some misunderstanding of it. Remove checking for NULL slots in the array, as alloc_pages_bulk and kmem_cache_alloc_bulk always fill the array from the beginning and thus we know the offset of the first failing allocation. This removes support for working well with alloc_pages_bulk used to refill page arrays that might have an entry removed from in the middle, but that is only used by sunrpc and hopefully on it's way out. Also remove the allocated parameter as it is redundant because the caller can simply specific and offset into the entries array.

2026-06-02block, bfq: release cgroup stats with bfq_groupYu Kuai
BFQ cgroup stats contain percpu counters embedded in struct bfq_group, but the old free path destroys them from bfq_pd_free(), which is tied to blkg policy-data teardown. That is not the same lifetime as struct bfq_group. BFQ pins bfq_group while bfq_queue entities refer to it, so bfq_pd_free() can drop the policy-data reference while other bfq_group references still exist. The following blkcg change also defers policy-data release through RCU and leaves BFQ to run the final bfqg_put() from an RCU callback. For that conversion, stats teardown must belong to the last bfq_group put, not to policy-data teardown. Move stats teardown to bfqg_put() so the embedded counters are destroyed exactly when the last bfq_group reference is released, before kfree(bfqg). Without this preparatory change, the RCU-delayed policy-data free conversion reproduced the following KASAN report: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in percpu_counter_destroy_many+0xf1/0x2e0 Write of size 8 at addr ffff88811d9409e0 by task test_blkcg/535 CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 535 Comm: test_blkcg Not tainted 7.1.0-rc2-g1e14adca0199 #1 PREEMPT ea13f83d4b74a12510d20db4a7d9a0fe8275f05c Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.17.0-5.fc42 04/01/2014 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x54/0x70 print_address_description+0x77/0x200 ? percpu_counter_destroy_many+0xf1/0x2e0 print_report+0x64/0x70 kasan_report+0x118/0x150 ? percpu_counter_destroy_many+0xf1/0x2e0 percpu_counter_destroy_many+0xf1/0x2e0 __mmdrop+0x1d8/0x350 finish_task_switch+0x3f5/0x570 __schedule+0xe8e/0x18a0 schedule+0xfe/0x1c0 schedule_timeout+0x7f/0x1d0 __wait_for_common+0x26c/0x3f0 wait_for_completion_state+0x21/0x40 call_usermodehelper_exec+0x271/0x2c0 __request_module+0x296/0x410 elv_iosched_store+0x1bc/0x2c0 queue_attr_store+0x152/0x1c0 kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x1d7/0x280 vfs_write+0x580/0x630 ksys_write+0xec/0x190 do_syscall_64+0x156/0x490 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f Allocated by task 535: kasan_save_track+0x3e/0x80 __kasan_kmalloc+0x72/0x90 bfq_pd_alloc+0x60/0x100 [bfq] blkg_create+0x3bb/0xbe0 blkg_lookup_create+0x3a2/0x460 blkg_conf_start+0x24a/0x2d0 bfq_io_set_weight+0x17f/0x430 [bfq] cgroup_file_write+0x1c5/0x4b0 kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x1d7/0x280 vfs_write+0x580/0x630 ksys_write+0xec/0x190 do_syscall_64+0x156/0x490 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f Freed by task 0: kasan_save_track+0x3e/0x80 kasan_save_free_info+0x46/0x50 __kasan_slab_free+0x3a/0x60 kfree+0x14e/0x4f0 rcu_core+0x6f3/0xcd0 handle_softirqs+0x1a0/0x550 __irq_exit_rcu+0x8c/0x150 irq_exit_rcu+0xe/0x20 sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x6e/0x80 asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x1a/0x20 Last potentially related work creation: kasan_save_stack+0x3e/0x60 kasan_record_aux_stack+0x99/0xb0 call_rcu+0x55/0x5c0 blkg_free_workfn+0x130/0x220 process_scheduled_works+0x655/0xb60 worker_thread+0x446/0x600 kthread+0x1f4/0x230 ret_from_fork+0x259/0x420 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 Signed-off-by: Yu Kuai <yukuai@fygo.io> Reviewed-by: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260601061502.899552-1-yukuai@fygo.io Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
