<id>urn:sha1:78bd0c143dea4b7a4c23c13356987ca0eafb442e</id>
<content type='text'>
commit d1fef92e414433ca7b89abf85cb0df42b8d475eb upstream.

do_rbd_add() publishes the device with device_add() before calling
device_add_disk(). If device_add_disk() fails after device_add()
succeeds, the error path calls rbd_free_disk() directly and then later
falls through to rbd_dev_device_release(), which calls rbd_free_disk()
again. This double teardown can leave blk-mq cleanup operating on
invalid state and trigger a null-ptr-deref in
__blk_mq_free_map_and_rqs(), reached from blk_mq_free_tag_set().

Fix this by following the normal remove ordering: call device_del()
before rbd_dev_device_release() when device_add_disk() fails after
device_add(). That keeps the teardown sequence consistent and avoids
re-entering disk cleanup through the wrong path.

The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly
available.

We reproduced the bug on v7.0 with a real Ceph backend and a QEMU x86_64
guest booted with KASAN and CONFIG_FAILSLAB enabled. The reproducer
confines failslab injections to the __add_disk() range and injects
fail-nth while mapping an RBD image through
/sys/bus/rbd/add_single_major.

On the unpatched kernel, fail-nth=4 reliably triggered the fault:

<title>rbd: check for EOD after exclusive lock is ensured to be held</title>

commit bd3884a204c3b507e6baa9a4091aa927f9af5404 upstream.

Similar to commit 870611e4877e ("rbd: get snapshot context after
exclusive lock is ensured to be held"), move the "beyond EOD" check
into the image request state machine so that it's performed after
exclusive lock is ensured to be held.  This avoids various race
conditions which can arise when the image is shrunk under I/O (in
practice, mostly readahead).  In one such scenario

    rbd_assert(objno &lt; rbd_dev-&gt;object_map_size);

can be triggered if a close-to-EOD read gets queued right before the
shrink is initiated and the EOD check is performed against an outdated
mapping_size.  After the resize is done on the server side and exclusive
lock is (re)acquired bringing along the new (now shrunk) object map, the
read starts going through the state machine and rbd_obj_may_exist() gets
invoked on an object that is out of bounds of rbd_dev-&gt;object_map array.

commit 2237ceb71f89837ac47c5dce2aaa2c2b3a337a3c upstream.

Every time a watch is reestablished after getting lost, we need to
update the cookie which involves quiescing exclusive lock.  For this,
we transition from RBD_LOCK_STATE_LOCKED to RBD_LOCK_STATE_QUIESCING
roughly for the duration of rbd_reacquire_lock() call.  If the mapping
is exclusive and I/O happens to arrive in this time window, it's failed
with EROFS (later translated to EIO) based on the wrong assumption in
rbd_img_exclusive_lock() -- "lock got released?" check there stopped
making sense with commit a2b1da09793d ("rbd: lock should be quiesced on
reacquire").

To make it worse, any such I/O is added to the acquiring list before
EROFS is returned and this sets up for violating rbd_lock_del_request()
precondition that the request is either on the running list or not on
any list at all -- see commit ded080c86b3f ("rbd: don't move requests
to the running list on errors").  rbd_lock_del_request() ends up
processing these requests as if they were on the running list which
screws up quiescing_wait completion counter and ultimately leads to

    rbd_assert(!completion_done(&amp;rbd_dev-&gt;quiescing_wait));

being triggered on the next watch error.

commit f5c466a0fdb2d9f3650d2e3911b0735f17ba00cf upstream.

... to RBD_LOCK_STATE_QUIESCING and quiescing_wait to recognize that
this state and the associated completion are backing rbd_quiesce_lock(),
which isn't specific to releasing the lock.

While exclusive lock does get quiesced before it's released, it also
gets quiesced before an attempt to update the cookie is made and there
the lock is not released as long as ceph_cls_set_cookie() succeeds.

commit 3ceccb14f5576e02b81cc8b105ab81f224bd87f6 upstream.

Expanding on the previous commit, assuming that rbd_is_lock_owner()
always returns true (i.e. that we are either in RBD_LOCK_STATE_LOCKED
or RBD_LOCK_STATE_QUIESCING) if the mapping is exclusive is wrong too.
In case ceph_cls_set_cookie() fails, the lock would be temporarily
released even if the mapping is exclusive, meaning that we can end up
even in RBD_LOCK_STATE_UNLOCKED.

IOW, exclusive mappings are really "just" about disabling automatic
lock transitions (as documented in the man page), not about grabbing
the lock and holding on to it whatever it takes.

commit ded080c86b3f99683774af0441a58fc2e3d60cae upstream.

The running list is supposed to contain requests that are pinning the
exclusive lock, i.e. those that must be flushed before exclusive lock
is released.  When wake_lock_waiters() is called to handle an error,
requests on the acquiring list are failed with that error and no
flushing takes place.  Briefly moving them to the running list is not
only pointless but also harmful: if exclusive lock gets acquired
before all of their state machines are scheduled and go through
rbd_lock_del_request(), we trigger

    rbd_assert(list_empty(&amp;rbd_dev-&gt;running_list));

in rbd_try_acquire_lock().

<title>rbd: take header_rwsem in rbd_dev_refresh() only when updating</title>

<id>urn:sha1:77d0e7e8e58273c09efb6095661af010843c0048</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 0b207d02bd9ab8dcc31b262ca9f60dbc1822500d upstream.

rbd_dev_refresh() has been holding header_rwsem across header and
parent info read-in unnecessarily for ages.  With commit 870611e4877e
("rbd: get snapshot context after exclusive lock is ensured to be
held"), the potential for deadlocks became much more real owning to
a) header_rwsem now nesting inside lock_rwsem and b) rw_semaphores
not allowing new readers after a writer is registered.

For example, assuming that I/O request 1, I/O request 2 and header
read-in request all target the same OSD:

1. I/O request 1 comes in and gets submitted
2. watch error occurs
3. rbd_watch_errcb() takes lock_rwsem for write, clears owner_cid and
   releases lock_rwsem
4. after reestablishing the watch, rbd_reregister_watch() calls
   rbd_dev_refresh() which takes header_rwsem for write and submits
   a header read-in request
5. I/O request 2 comes in: after taking lock_rwsem for read in
   __rbd_img_handle_request(), it blocks trying to take header_rwsem
   for read in rbd_img_object_requests()
6. another watch error occurs
7. rbd_watch_errcb() blocks trying to take lock_rwsem for write
8. I/O request 1 completion is received by the messenger but can't be
   processed because lock_rwsem won't be granted anymore
9. header read-in request completion can't be received, let alone
   processed, because the messenger is stranded

Change rbd_dev_refresh() to take header_rwsem only for actually
updating rbd_dev-&gt;header.  Header and parent info read-in don't need
any locking.

<content type='text'>
commit c10311776f0a8ddea2276df96e255625b07045a8 upstream.

Unlike header read-in, parent info read-in is already decoupled in
get_parent_info(), but it's buried in rbd_dev_v2_parent_info() along
with the processing logic.

Separate the initial read-in and update read-in logic into
rbd_dev_setup_parent() and rbd_dev_update_parent() respectively and
have rbd_dev_v2_parent_info() just populate struct parent_image_info
(i.e. what get_parent_info() did).  Some existing QoI issues, like
flatten of a standalone clone being disregarded on refresh, remain.

commit 510a7330c82a7754d5df0117a8589e8a539067c7 upstream.

Make rbd_dev_header_info() populate a passed struct rbd_image_header
instead of rbd_dev-&gt;header and introduce rbd_dev_update_header() for
updating mutable fields in rbd_dev-&gt;header upon refresh.  The initial
read-in of both mutable and immutable fields in rbd_dev_image_probe()
passes in rbd_dev-&gt;header so no update step is required there.

rbd_init_layout() is now called directly from rbd_dev_image_probe()
instead of individually in format 1 and format 2 implementations.

commit 0b035401c57021fc6c300272cbb1c5a889d4fe45 upstream.

Move rbd_dev_refresh() definition further down to avoid having to
move struct parent_image_info definition in the next commit.  This
spares some forward declarations too.
