      libnvdimm/pmem: Fix blk_cleanup_disk() usage · a624eb52
      Dan Williams authored 
      

The queue_to_disk() helper can not be used after del_gendisk()
communicate @disk via the pgmap->owner.

Otherwise, queue_to_disk() returns NULL resulting in the splat below.

      rq-qos: fix missed wake-ups in rq_qos_throttle try two · 11c7aa0d
      Jan Kara authored 
      Commit 545fbd07 ("rq-qos: fix missed wake-ups in rq_qos_throttle")
tried to fix a problem that a process could be sleeping in rq_qos_wait()
without anyone to wake it up. However the fix is not complete and the
following can still happen:

CPU1 (waiter1)		CPU2 (waiter2)		CPU3 (waker)
rq_qos_wait()		rq_qos_wait()
  acquire_inflight_cb() -> fails
			  acquire_inflight_cb() -> fails

						completes IOs, inflight
						  decreased
  prepare_to_wait_exclusive()
			  prepare_to_wait_exclusive()
  has_sleeper = !wq_has_single_sleeper() -> true as there are two sleepers
			  has_sleeper = !wq_has_single_sleeper() -> true
  io_schedule()		  io_schedule()

Deadlock as now there's nobody to wakeup the two waiters. The logic
automatically blocking when there are already sleepers is really subtle
and the only way to make it work reliably is that we check whether there
are some waiters in the queue when adding ourselves there. That way, we
are guaranteed that a...

      block: return the correct bvec when checking for gaps · c9c9762d
      Long Li authored 
      After commit 07173c3e ("block: enable multipage bvecs"), a bvec can
have multiple pages. But bio_will_gap() still assumes one page bvec while
checking for merging. If the pages in the bvec go across the
seg_boundary_mask, this check for merging can potentially succeed if only
the 1st page is tested, and can fail if all the pages are tested.

Later, when SCSI builds the SG list the same check for merging is done in
__blk_segment_map_sg_merge() with all the pages in the bvec tested. This
time the check may fail if the pages in bvec go across the
seg_boundary_mask (but tested okay in bio_will_gap() earlier, so those
BIOs were merged). If this check fails, we end up with a broken SG list
for drivers assuming the SG list not having offsets in intermediate pages.
This results in incorrect pages written to the disk.

Fix this by returning the multi-page bvec when testing gaps for merging.
