<content type='text'>
The 0day bot reports the below failure which happens occasionally, with
their randconfig testing (once every ~100 boots).  The Code points at
the private pointer -&gt;driver_data being NULL, which hints at a race of
sorts where the private driver_data descriptor has disappeared by the
time we get to run the workqueue.

So let's check that pointer before we continue with issuing the command
to the drive.

This fix is of the brown paper bag nature but considering that IDE is
long deprecated, let's do that so that random testing which happens to
enable CONFIG_IDE during randconfig builds, doesn't fail because of
this.

Besides, failing the TEST_UNIT_READY command because the drive private
data is gone is something which we could simply do anyway, to denote
that there was a problem communicating with the device.

<title>ide:ide-cd: fix kernel panic resulting from missing scsi_req_init</title>

<id>urn:sha1:79d73346ac05bc31f2e96f899c4e9aaaa616a8d4</id>
<content type='text'>
Since we split the scsi_request out of struct request, while the
standard prep_rq_fn builds 10 byte cmds, it missed to invoke
scsi_req_init() to initialize certain fields of a scsi_request
structure (.__cmd[], .cmd, .cmd_len and .sense_len but no other
members of struct scsi_request).

An example panic on virtual machines (qemu/virtualbox) to boot
from IDE cdrom:

<title>block: Make most scsi_req_init() calls implicit</title>

<content type='text'>
Instead of explicitly calling scsi_req_init() after blk_get_request(),
call that function from inside blk_get_request(). Add an
.initialize_rq_fn() callback function to the block drivers that need
it. Merge the IDE .init_rq_fn() function into .initialize_rq_fn()
because it is too small to keep it as a separate function. Keep the
scsi_req_init() call in ide_prep_sense() because it follows a
blk_rq_init() call.

<id>urn:sha1:2a842acab109f40f0d7d10b38e9ca88390628996</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently we use nornal Linux errno values in the block layer, and while
we accept any error a few have overloaded magic meanings.  This patch
instead introduces a new  blk_status_t value that holds block layer specific
status codes and explicitly explains their meaning.  Helpers to convert from
and to the previous special meanings are provided for now, but I suspect
we want to get rid of them in the long run - those drivers that have a
errno input (e.g. networking) usually get errnos that don't know about
the special block layer overloads, and similarly returning them to userspace
will usually return somethings that strictly speaking isn't correct
for file system operations, but that's left as an exercise for later.

For now the set of errors is a very limited set that closely corresponds
to the previous overloaded errno values, but there is some low hanging
fruite to improve it.

blk_status_t (ab)uses the sparse __bitwise annotations to allow for sparse
typechecking, so that we can easily catch places passing the wrong values.

<title>scsi: introduce a result field in struct scsi_request</title>

This passes on the scsi_cmnd result field to users of passthrough
requests.  Currently we abuse req-&gt;errors for this purpose, but that
field will go away in its current form.

Note that the old IDE code abuses the errors field in very creative
ways and stores all kinds of different values in it.  I didn't dare
to touch this magic, so the abuses are brought forward 1:1.

The function only returns -EIO if rq-&gt;errors is non-zero, which is not
very useful and lets a large number of callers ignore the return value.

Just let the callers figure out their error themselves.

<title>sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt;</title>

We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/task_stack.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

<title>cdrom: Make device operations read-only</title>

Since function tables are a common target for attackers, it's best to keep
them in read-only memory. As such, this makes the CDROM device ops tables
const. This drops additionally n_minors, since it isn't used meaningfully,
and sets the only user of cdrom_dummy_generic_packet explicitly so the
variables can all be const.

Inspired by similar changes in grsecurity/PaX.

<title>block: fold cmd_type into the REQ_OP_ space</title>

<id>urn:sha1:aebf526b53aea164508730427597d45f3e06b376</id>
<content type='text'>
Instead of keeping two levels of indirection for requests types, fold it
all into the operations.  The little caveat here is that previously
cmd_type only applied to struct request, while the request and bio op
fields were set to plain REQ_OP_READ/WRITE even for passthrough
operations.

Instead this patch adds new REQ_OP_* for SCSI passthrough and driver
private requests, althought it has to add two for each so that we
can communicate the data in/out nature of the request.
