commit 88430ebcbc0ec637b710b947738839848c20feff upstream.

When dm_resume() and dm_destroy() are concurrent, it will
lead to UAF, as follows:

 BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __run_timers+0x173/0x710

One of the concurrency UAF can be shown as below:

        use                                  free

                                    |     atomic_read(&amp;md-&gt;holders)
                                    |     msleep(1)
  dm_resume                         |
    __dm_resume                     |

          do_waker  #add delay work |
  dm_put                            |
    atomic_dec(&amp;md-&gt;holders)        |
                                    |     dm_table_destroy
                                    |       pool_dtr
                                    |         __pool_dec
                                    |           __pool_destroy
                                    |             destroy_workqueue
                                    |             kfree(pool) # free pool
        time out
__do_softirq
  run_timer_softirq # pool has already been freed

This can be easily reproduced using:
  1. create thin-pool
  2. dmsetup suspend pool
  3. dmsetup resume pool
  4. dmsetup remove_all # Concurrent with 3

The root cause of this UAF bug is that dm_resume() adds timer after
dm_destroy() skips cancelling the timer because of suspend status.
After timeout, it will call run_timer_softirq(), however pool has
already been freed. The concurrency UAF bug will happen.

Therefore, cancelling timer again in __pool_destroy().

[ Upstream commit d377535405686f735b90a8ad4ba269484cd7c96e ]

mempool_init()/bioset_init() require that the mempools/biosets be zeroed
first; they probably should not _require_ this, but not allocating those
structs with kzalloc is a fairly nonsensical thing to do (calling
mempool_exit()/bioset_exit() on an uninitialized mempool/bioset is legal
and safe, but only works if said memory was zeroed.)

[ Upstream commit 70de2cbda8a5d788284469e755f8b097d339c240 ]

Invoking dm_get_device() twice on the same device path with different
modes is dangerous.  Because in that case, upgrade_mode() will alloc a
new 'dm_dev' and free the old one, which may be referenced by a previous
caller.  Dereferencing the dangling pointer will trigger kernel NULL
pointer dereference.

The following two cases can reproduce this issue.  Actually, they are
invalid setups that must be disallowed, e.g.:

1. Creating a thin-pool with read_only mode, and the same device as
both metadata and data.

dmsetup create thinp --table \
    "0 41943040 thin-pool /dev/vdb /dev/vdb 128 0 1 read_only"

commit 4ae280b4ee3463fa57bbe6eede26b97daff8a0f1 upstream.

When provisioning a new data block for a virtual block, either because
the block was previously unallocated or because we are breaking sharing,
if the whole block of data is being overwritten the bio that triggered
the provisioning is issued immediately, skipping copying or zeroing of
the data block.

When this bio completes the new mapping is inserted in to the pool's
metadata by process_prepared_mapping(), where the bio completion is
signaled to the upper layers.

This completion is signaled without first committing the metadata.  If
the bio in question has the REQ_FUA flag set and the system crashes
right after its completion and before the next metadata commit, then the
write is lost despite the REQ_FUA flag requiring that I/O completion for
this request must only be signaled after the data has been committed to
non-volatile storage.

Fix this by deferring the completion of overwrite bios, with the REQ_FUA
flag set, until after the metadata has been committed.

commit d445bd9cec1a850c2100fcf53684c13b3fd934f2 upstream.

Commit 00a0ea33b495 ("dm thin: do not queue freed thin mapping for next
stage processing") changed process_prepared_discard_passdown_pt1() to
increment all the blocks being discarded until after the passdown had
completed to avoid them being prematurely reused.

IO issued to a thin device that breaks sharing with a snapshot, followed
by a discard issued to snapshot(s) that previously shared the block(s),
results in passdown_double_checking_shared_status() being called to
iterate through the blocks double checking their reference count is zero
and issuing the passdown if so.  So a side effect of commit 00a0ea33b495
is passdown_double_checking_shared_status() was broken.

Fix this by checking if the block reference count is greater than 1.
Also, rename dm_pool_block_is_used() to dm_pool_block_is_shared().

[ Upstream commit 3ab91828166895600efd9cdc3a0eb32001f7204a ]

Committing a transaction can consume some metadata of it's own, we now
reserve a small amount of metadata to cover this.  Free metadata
reported by the kernel will not include this reserve.

If any of the reserve has been used after a commit we enter a new
internal state PM_OUT_OF_METADATA_SPACE.  This is reported as
PM_READ_ONLY, so no userland changes are needed.  If the metadata
device is resized the pool will move back to PM_WRITE.

These changes mean we never need to abort and rollback a transaction due
to running out of metadata space.  This is particularly important
because there have been a handful of reports of data corruption against
DM thin-provisioning that can all be attributed to the thin-pool having
ran out of metadata space.

commit 75294442d896f2767be34f75aca7cc2b0d01301f upstream.

Now both check_for_space() and do_no_space_timeout() will read &amp; write
pool-&gt;pf.error_if_no_space.  If these functions run concurrently, as
shown in the following case, the default setting of "queue_if_no_space"
can get lost.

precondition:
    * error_if_no_space = false (aka "queue_if_no_space")
    * pool is in Out-of-Data-Space (OODS) mode
    * no_space_timeout worker has been queued

CPU 0:                          CPU 1:
// delete a thin device
process_delete_mesg()
// check_for_space() invoked by commit()
set_pool_mode(pool, PM_WRITE)
    pool-&gt;pf.error_if_no_space = \
     pt-&gt;requested_pf.error_if_no_space

				// timeout, pool is still in OODS mode
				do_no_space_timeout
				    // "queue_if_no_space" config is lost
				    pool-&gt;pf.error_if_no_space = true
    pool-&gt;pf.mode = new_mode

Fix it by stopping no_space_timeout worker when switching to write mode.

commit a685557fbbc3122ed11e8ad3fa63a11ebc5de8c3 upstream.

Discards issued to a DM thin device can complete to userspace (via
fstrim) _before_ the metadata changes associated with the discards is
reflected in the thinp superblock (e.g. free blocks).  As such, if a
user constructs a test that loops repeatedly over these steps, block
allocation can fail due to discards not having completed yet:
1) fill thin device via filesystem file
2) remove file
3) fstrim

From initial report, here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2018-April/msg00022.html

"The root cause of this issue is that dm-thin will first remove
mapping and increase corresponding blocks' reference count to prevent
them from being reused before DISCARD bios get processed by the
underlying layers. However. increasing blocks' reference count could
also increase the nr_allocated_this_transaction in struct sm_disk
which makes smd-&gt;old_ll.nr_allocated +
smd-&gt;nr_allocated_this_transaction bigger than smd-&gt;old_ll.nr_blocks.
In this case, alloc_data_block() will never commit metadata to reset
the begin pointer of struct sm_disk, because sm_disk_get_nr_free()
always return an underflow value."

While there is room for improvement to the space-map accounting that
thinp is making use of: the reality is this test is inherently racey and
will result in the previous iteration's fstrim's discard(s) completing
vs concurrent block allocation, via dd, in the next iteration of the
loop.

No amount of space map accounting improvements will be able to allow
user's to use a block before a discard of that block has completed.

So the best we can really do is allow DM thinp to gracefully handle such
aggressive use of all the pool's data by degrading the pool into
out-of-data-space (OODS) mode.  We _should_ get that behaviour already
(if space map accounting didn't falsely cause alloc_data_block() to
believe free space was available).. but short of that we handle the
current reality that dm_pool_alloc_data_block() can return -ENOSPC.

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:

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 948f581a53b704b984aa20df009f0a2b4cf7f907 upstream.

dm-thin does not free the discard_parent bio after all chained sub
bios finished. The following kmemleak report could be observed after
pool with discard_passdown option processes discard bios in
linux v4.11-rc7. To fix this, we drop the discard_parent bio reference
when its endio (passdown_endio) called.
