commit 36369f46e9 upstream.
Since commit 10c70d95c0 ("block: remove the bd_openers checks in
blk_drop_partitions") we allow rereading of partition table although
there are users of the block device. This has an undesirable consequence
that e.g. if sda and sdb are assembled to a RAID1 device md0 with
partitions, BLKRRPART ioctl on sda will rescan partition table and
create sda1 device. This partition device under a raid device confuses
some programs (such as libstorage-ng used for initial partitioning for
distribution installation) leading to failures.
Fix the problem refusing to rescan partitions if there is another user
that has the block device exclusively open.

[ Upstream commit 8237c01f16 ]
The hctx's run_work may be racing with the elevator switch when
reinitializing hardware queues. The queue is merely frozen in this
context, but that only prevents requests from allocating and doesn't
stop the hctx work from running. The work may get an elevator pointer
that's being torn down, and can result in use-after-free errors and
kernel panics (example below). Use the quiesced elevator switch instead,
and make the previous one static since it is now only used locally.

In case of BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING, per-hctx srcu is used to protect dispatch
critical area. However, this srcu instance stays at the end of hctx, and
it often takes standalone cacheline, often cold.
Inside srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock(), WRITE is always done on
the indirect percpu variable which is allocated from heap instead of
being embedded, srcu->srcu_idx is read only in srcu_read_lock(). It
doesn't matter if srcu structure stays in hctx or request queue.
So switch to per-request-queue srcu for protecting dispatch, and this
way simplifies quiesce a lot, not mention quiesce is always done on the

We never insert flush request into scheduler queue before.
Recently commit d92ca9d834 ("blk-mq: don't handle non-flush requests in

This way has caused warning[1] in mq-deadline dd_exit_sched() or io hang in
case of kyber since RQF_ELVPRIV isn't set for flush request, then
->finish_request won't be called.
Fix the issue by inserting FUA data request with blk_mq_request_bypass_insert()
when the device supports FUA, just like what we did before.

Retain the old logic for the fops based submit, but for our internal
blk_mq_submit_bio(), move the queue entering logic into the core
function itself.
We need to be a bit careful if going into the scheduler, as a scheduler
or queue mappings can arbitrarily change before we have entered the queue.
Have the bio scheduler mapping do that separately, it's a very cheap
operation compared to actually doing merging locking and lookups.

The Concurrent Positioning Ranges VPD page (for SCSI) and data log page
(for ATA) contain parameters describing the set of contiguous LBAs that
can be served independently by a single LUN multi-actuator hard-disk.
Similarly, a logically defined block device composed of multiple disks
can in some cases execute requests directed at different sector ranges
in parallel. A dm-linear device aggregating 2 block devices together is
an example.
This patch implements support for exposing a block device independent
access ranges to the user through sysfs to allow optimizing device
accesses to increase performance.
To describe the set of independent sector ranges of a device (actuators
of a multi-actuator HDDs or table entries of a dm-linear device),
The type struct blk_independent_access_ranges is introduced. This
structure describes the sector ranges using an array of
struct blk_independent_access_range structures. This range structure
defines the start sector and number of sectors of the access range.
The ranges in the array cannot overlap and must contain all sectors
within the device capacity.
The function disk_set_independent_access_ranges() allows a device
driver to signal to the block layer that a device has multiple
independent access ranges. In this case, a struct
blk_independent_access_ranges is attached to the device request queue
by the function disk_set_independent_access_ranges(). The function
disk_alloc_independent_access_ranges() is provided for drivers to
allocate this structure.
struct blk_independent_access_ranges contains kobjects (struct kobject)
to expose to the user through sysfs the set of independent access ranges
supported by a device. When the device is initialized, sysfs
registration of the ranges information is done from blk_register_queue()
using the block layer internal function
disk_register_independent_access_ranges(). If a driver calls
disk_set_independent_access_ranges() for a registered queue, e.g. when a
device is revalidated, disk_set_independent_access_ranges() will execute
disk_register_independent_access_ranges() to update the sysfs attribute
files. The sysfs file structure created starts from the
independent_access_ranges sub-directory and contains the start sector
and number of sectors of each range, with the information for each range
grouped in numbered sub-directories.
E.g. for a dual actuator HDD, the user sees:
$ tree /sys/block/sdk/queue/independent_access_ranges/
/sys/block/sdk/queue/independent_access_ranges/
|-- 0
| |-- nr_sectors
| `-- sector
`-- 1
|-- nr_sectors
`-- sector
For a regular device with a single access range, the
independent_access_ranges sysfs directory does not exist.
Device revalidation may lead to changes to this structure and to the
attribute values. When manipulated, the queue sysfs_lock and
sysfs_dir_lock mutexes are held for atomicity, similarly to how the
blk-mq and elevator sysfs queue sub-directories are protected.
The code related to the management of independent access ranges is
added in the new file block/blk-ia-ranges.c.

Return to the normal blk_mq_submit_bio flow if the bio did not end up
actually being a flush because the device didn't support it. Note that
this is basically impossible to hit without special instrumentation given
that submit_bio_checks already clears these flags usually, so we'd need a
tight race to actually hit this code path.
With this the call to blk_mq_run_hw_queue for the flush requests can be
removed given that the actual flush requests are always issued via the
requeue workqueue which runs the queue unconditionally.
