commit a5f6a6a9c72eac38a7fadd1a038532bc8516337c upstream.

invalidate_bdev() calls cleancache_invalidate_inode() iff -&gt;nrpages != 0
which doen't make any sense.

Make sure that invalidate_bdev() always calls cleancache_invalidate_inode()
regardless of mapping-&gt;nrpages value.

<title>block: get rid of blk_integrity_revalidate()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2262a51b515a958068f8f2a289871652fbd82f64</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 19b7ccf8651df09d274671b53039c672a52ad84d upstream.

Commit 25520d55cdb6 ("block: Inline blk_integrity in struct gendisk")
introduced blk_integrity_revalidate(), which seems to assume ownership
of the stable pages flag and unilaterally clears it if no blk_integrity
profile is registered:

    if (bi-&gt;profile)
            disk-&gt;queue-&gt;backing_dev_info-&gt;capabilities |=
                    BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;
    else
            disk-&gt;queue-&gt;backing_dev_info-&gt;capabilities &amp;=
                    ~BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES;

It's called from revalidate_disk() and rescan_partitions(), making it
impossible to enable stable pages for drivers that support partitions
and don't use blk_integrity: while the call in revalidate_disk() can be
trivially worked around (see zram, which doesn't support partitions and
hence gets away with zram_revalidate_disk()), rescan_partitions() can
be triggered from userspace at any time.  This breaks rbd, where the
ceph messenger is responsible for generating/verifying CRCs.

Since blk_integrity_{un,}register() "must" be used for (un)registering
the integrity profile with the block layer, move BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES
setting there.  This way drivers that call blk_integrity_register() and
use integrity infrastructure won't interfere with drivers that don't
but still want stable pages.

<title>block_dev: don't test bdev-&gt;bd_contains when it is not stable</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bcc7f5b4bee8e327689a4d994022765855c807ff</id>
<content type='text'>
bdev-&gt;bd_contains is not stable before calling __blkdev_get().
When __blkdev_get() is called on a parition with -&gt;bd_openers == 0
it sets
  bdev-&gt;bd_contains = bdev;
which is not correct for a partition.
After a call to __blkdev_get() succeeds, -&gt;bd_openers will be &gt; 0
and then -&gt;bd_contains is stable.

When FMODE_EXCL is used, blkdev_get() calls
   bd_start_claiming() -&gt;  bd_prepare_to_claim() -&gt; bd_may_claim()

This call happens before __blkdev_get() is called, so -&gt;bd_contains
is not stable.  So bd_may_claim() cannot safely use -&gt;bd_contains.
It currently tries to use it, and this can lead to a BUG_ON().

This happens when a whole device is already open with a bd_holder (in
use by dm in my particular example) and two threads race to open a
partition of that device for the first time, one opening with O_EXCL and
one without.

The thread that doesn't use O_EXCL gets through blkdev_get() to
__blkdev_get(), gains the -&gt;bd_mutex, and sets bdev-&gt;bd_contains = bdev;

Immediately thereafter the other thread, using FMODE_EXCL, calls
bd_start_claiming() from blkdev_get().  This should fail because the
whole device has a holder, but because bdev-&gt;bd_contains == bdev
bd_may_claim() incorrectly reports success.
This thread continues and blocks on bd_mutex.

The first thread then sets bdev-&gt;bd_contains correctly and drops the mutex.
The thread using FMODE_EXCL then continues and when it calls bd_may_claim()
again in:
			BUG_ON(!bd_may_claim(bdev, whole, holder));
The BUG_ON fires.

Fix this by removing the dependency on -&gt;bd_contains in
bd_may_claim().  As bd_may_claim() has direct access to the whole
device, it can simply test if the target bdev is the whole device.

If a block device is closed while iterate_bdevs() is handling it, the
following NULL pointer dereference occurs because bdev-&gt;b_disk is NULL
in bdev_get_queue(), which is called from blk_get_backing_dev_info() (in
turn called by the mapping_cap_writeback_dirty() call in
__filemap_fdatawrite_range()):

The crash is easily reproducible by running the following command, if an

 while :; do head -c1 /dev/nullb0; done &gt; /dev/null &amp; while :; do sync; done

Fix it by holding the bd_mutex across the func() call and only calling
func() if the bdev is opened.

Some drivers often use external bvec table, so introduce
this helper for this case. It is always safe to access the
bio-&gt;bi_io_vec in this way for this case.

After converting to this usage, it will becomes a bit easier
to evaluate the remaining direct access to bio-&gt;bi_io_vec,
so it can help to prepare for the following multipage bvec
support.
