drbd: Balance RCU calls in drbd_adm_dump_devices()

2026-05-23T11:08:26+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2b31e86387e60b3689339f0f0fbb4d3623d9d494 ] Make drbd_adm_dump_devices() call rcu_read_lock() before rcu_read_unlock() is called. This has been detected by the Clang thread-safety analyzer.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

drbd: always set BLK_FEAT_STABLE_WRITES

2026-02-11T17:35:56+00:00

DRBD requires stable pages because it may read the same bio data multiple times for local disk I/O and network transmission, and in some cases for calculating checksums. The BLK_FEAT_STABLE_WRITES flag is set when the device is first created, but blk_set_stacking_limits() clears it whenever a backing device is attached. In some cases the flag may be inherited from the backing device, but we want it to be enabled at all times. Unconditionally re-enable BLK_FEAT_STABLE_WRITES in drbd_reconsider_queue_parameters() after the queue parameter negotiations. Also, document why we want this flag enabled in the first place.

drbd: init queue_limits->max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors parameter

2025-09-17T14:20:49+00:00

The parameter max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors in queue_limits should be equal to max_write_zeroes_sectors if it is set to a non-zero value. However, when the backend bdev is specified, this parameter is initialized to UINT_MAX during the call to blk_set_stacking_limits(), while only max_write_zeroes_sectors is adjusted. Therefore, this discrepancy triggers a value check failure in blk_validate_limits(). Since the drvd driver doesn't yet support unmap write zeroes, so fix this failure by explicitly setting max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors to zero.

move asm/unaligned.h to linux/unaligned.h

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h; might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header. auto-generated by the following: for i in `git grep -l -w asm/unaligned.h`; do sed -i -e "s/asm\/unaligned.h/linux\/unaligned.h/" $i done for i in `git grep -l -w asm-generic/unaligned.h`; do sed -i -e "s/asm-generic\/unaligned.h/linux\/unaligned.h/" $i done git mv include/asm-generic/unaligned.h include/linux/unaligned.h git mv tools/include/asm-generic/unaligned.h tools/include/linux/unaligned.h sed -i -e "/unaligned.h/d" include/asm-generic/Kbuild sed -i -e "s/__ASM_GENERIC/__LINUX/" include/linux/unaligned.h tools/include/linux/unaligned.h

drbd: atomically update queue limits in drbd_reconsider_queue_parameters

2024-03-06T15:30:34+00:00

Switch drbd_reconsider_queue_parameters to set up the queue parameters in an on-stack queue_limits structure and apply the atomically. Remove various helpers that have become so trivial that they can be folded into drbd_reconsider_queue_parameters.
