This is just apply Kuai's patch in [1] with mirror changes.
blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs() will free the 'queue_hw_ctx'(e.g. undate
submit_queues through configfs for null_blk), while it might still be
used from other context(e.g. switch elevator to none):
t1 t2
elevator_switch
blk_mq_unquiesce_queue
blk_mq_run_hw_queues
queue_for_each_hw_ctx
// assembly code for hctx = (q)->queue_hw_ctx[i]
mov 0x48(%rbp),%rdx -> read old queue_hw_ctx
__blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues
blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs
hctxs = q->queue_hw_ctx
q->queue_hw_ctx = new_hctxs
kfree(hctxs)
movslq %ebx,%rax
mov (%rdx,%rax,8),%rdi ->uaf
This problem was found by code review, and I comfirmed that the concurrent
scenario do exist(specifically 'q->queue_hw_ctx' can be changed during
blk_mq_run_hw_queues()), however, the uaf problem hasn't been repoduced yet
without hacking the kernel.
Sicne the queue is freezed in __blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues(), fix the
problem by protecting 'queue_hw_ctx' through rcu where it can be accessed
without grabbing 'q_usage_counter'.

After commit 4e5cc99e1e ("blk-mq: manage hctx map via xarray"), we use
an xarray instead of array to store hctx, but in poll mode, each time
in blk_mq_poll, we need use xa_load to find corresponding hctx, this
introduce some costs. In my test, xa_load may cost 3.8% cpu.
This patch revert previous change, eliminates the overhead of xa_load
and can result in a 3% performance improvement.

Freezing the request queue from inside sysfs store callbacks may cause a
deadlock in combination with the dm-multipath driver and the
queue_if_no_path option. Additionally, freezing the request queue slows
down system boot on systems where sysfs attributes are set synchronously.
Fix this by removing the blk_mq_freeze_queue() / blk_mq_unfreeze_queue()
calls from the store callbacks that do not strictly need these callbacks.
Add the __data_racy annotation to request_queue.rq_timeout to suppress
KCSAN data race reports about the rq_timeout reads.
This patch may cause a small delay in applying the new settings.
For all the attributes affected by this patch, I/O will complete
correctly whether the old or the new value of the attribute is used.
This patch affects the following sysfs attributes:
* io_poll_delay
* io_timeout
* nomerges
* read_ahead_kb
* rq_affinity
Here is an example of a deadlock triggered by running test srp/002

No zone plugs are allocated when a zone is opened by calling Zone Append
on it. This makes the cached zone reporting report incorrectly empty
zones if the file system is unmounted and report zones is called after
that, e.g. by xfstests test cases using the scratch device.
Fix this by recording if zone append was used on a device, and disable
cached reporting for the device until a ZONE_RESET_ALL happens that
guarantees all zones are empty.
We could probably do even better using a per-zone flag, but the practical
use cache for zone reporting after the initial mount are rather limited,
so let's keep things simple for now.

Introduce the function blkdev_report_zones_cached() to provide a fast
report zone built using the blkdev_get_zone_info() function, which gets
zone information from a disk zones_cond array or zone write plugs.
For a large capacity SMR drive, such fast report zone can be completed
in a few milliseconds compared to several seconds completion times
when the report zone is obtained from the device.
The zone report is built in the same manner as with the regular
blkdev_report_zones() function, that is, the first zone reported is the
one containing the specified start sector and the report is limited to
the specified number of zones (nr_zones argument). The information for
each zone in the report is obtained using blkdev_get_zone_info().
For zoned devices that do not use zone write plug resources,
using blkdev_get_zone_info() is inefficient as the zone report would
be very slow, generated one zone at a time. To avoid this,
blkdev_report_zones_cached() falls back to calling
blkdev_do_report_zones() to execute a regular zone report. In this case,
the .report_active field of struct blk_report_zones_args is set to true
to report zone conditions using the BLK_ZONE_COND_ACTIVE condition in
place of the implicit open, explicit open and closed conditions.

Introduce the function blkdev_get_zone_info() to obtain a single zone
information from cached zone data, that is, either from the zone write
plug for the target zone if it exists and from the disk zones_cond
array otherwise.
Since sequential zones that do not have a zone write plug are either
full, empty or in a bad state (read-only or offline), the zone write
pointer can be inferred from the zone condition cached in the disk
zones_cond array. For sequential zones that have a zone write plug, the
zone condition and zone write pointer are obtained from the condition
and write pointer offset managed with the zone write plug. This allows
obtaining the information for a zone much more quickly than having to
execute a report zones command on the device.
blkdev_get_zone_info() falls back to using a regular zone report if the
target zone is flagged as needing an update with the
BLK_ZONE_WPLUG_NEED_WP_UPDATE flag, or if the target device does not
use zone write plugs (i.e. a device mapper device). In this case, the
new function blkdev_report_zone_fallback() is used and the zone
condition is reported consistantly with the cahced report, that is, the
BLK_ZONE_COND_ACTIVE condition is used in place of the implicit open,
explicit open and closed conditions. This is achieved by adding the
.report_active field to struct blk_report_zones_args and by having
disk_report_zone() sets the correct zone condition if .report_active is
true.
In preparation for using blkdev_get_zone_info() in upcoming file systems
changes, also export this function as a GPL symbol.

The conv_zones_bitmap field of struct gendisk is used to define a bitmap
to identify the conventional zones of a zoned block device. The bit for
a zone is set in this bitmap if the zone is a conventional one, that is,
if the zone type is BLK_ZONE_TYPE_CONVENTIONAL. For such zone, this
always corresponds to the zone condition BLK_ZONE_COND_NOT_WP.
In other words, conv_zones_bitmap tracks a single condition of the
zones of a zoned block device.
In preparation for tracking more zone conditions, change
conv_zones_bitmap into an array of zone conditions, using 1 byte per
zone. This increases the memory usage from 1 bit per zone to 1 byte per
zone, that is, from 16 KiB to about 100 KiB for a 30 TB SMR HDD with 256
MiB zones. This is a trade-off to allow fast cached report zones later
on top of this change.
Rename the conv_zones_bitmap field of struct gendisk to zones_cond. Add
a blk_revalidate_zone_cond() function to initialize the zones_cond array
of a disk during device scan and to update it on device revalidation.
Move the allocation of the zones_cond array to
disk_revalidate_zone_resources(), making sure that this array is always
allocated, even for devices that do not need zone write plugs (zone
resources), to ensure that bdev_zone_is_seq() can be re-implemented to
use the zone condition array in place of the conv zones bitmap.
Finally, the function bdev_zone_is_seq() is rewritten to use a test on
the condition of the target zone.

Commit b76b840fd9 ("dm: Fix dm-zoned-reclaim zone write pointer
alignment") introduced an indirect call for the callback function of a
report zones executed with blkdev_report_zones(). This is necessary so
that the function disk_zone_wplug_sync_wp_offset() can be called to
refresh a zone write plug zone write pointer offset after a write error.
However, this solution makes following the path of a zone information
harder to understand.
Clean this up by introducing the new blk_report_zones_args structure to
define a zone report callback and its private data and introduce the
helper function disk_report_zone() which calls both
disk_zone_wplug_sync_wp_offset() and the zone report user callback
function for all zones of a zone report. This helper function must be
called by all block device drivers that implement the report zones
block operation in order to correctly report a zone information.
All block device drivers supporting the report_zones block operation are
updated to use this new scheme.

A recent lockdep[1] splat observed while running blktest block/005
reveals a potential deadlock caused by the cpu_hotplug_lock dependency
on ->freeze_lock. This dependency was introduced by commit 033b667a82
("block: blk-rq-qos: guard rq-qos helpers by static key").
That change added a static key to avoid fetching q->rq_qos when
neither blk-wbt nor blk-iolatency is configured. The static key
dynamically patches kernel text to a NOP when disabled, eliminating
overhead of fetching q->rq_qos in the I/O hot path. However, enabling
a static key at runtime requires acquiring both cpu_hotplug_lock and
jump_label_mutex. When this happens after the queue has already been
frozen (i.e., while holding ->freeze_lock), it creates a locking
dependency from cpu_hotplug_lock to ->freeze_lock, which leads to a
potential deadlock reported by lockdep [1].
To resolve this, replace the static key mechanism with q->queue_flags:
QUEUE_FLAG_QOS_ENABLED. This flag is evaluated in the fast path before
accessing q->rq_qos. If the flag is set, we proceed to fetch q->rq_qos;
otherwise, the access is skipped.
Since q->queue_flags is commonly accessed in IO hotpath and resides in
the first cacheline of struct request_queue, checking it imposes minimal
overhead while eliminating the deadlock risk.
This change avoids the lockdep splat without introducing performance
regressions.

Instances are happier that way and it makes more sense anyway -
the only part of the result that is related to partition we are given
is the start sector, and that has been filled in by the caller.
Everything else is a function of the disk. Only one instance
(DASD) is ever looking at anything other than bdev->bd_disk and
that one is trivial to adjust.

Pull vfs 'protection info' updates from Christian Brauner:
"This adds the new FS_IOC_GETLBMD_CAP ioctl() to query metadata and
protection info (PI) capabilities. This ioctl returns information
about the files integrity profile. This is useful for userspace
applications to understand a files end-to-end data protection support
and configure the I/O accordingly.
For now this interface is only supported by block devices. However the
design and placement of this ioctl in generic FS ioctl space allows us
to extend it to work over files as well. This maybe useful when
filesystems start supporting PI-aware layouts.
A new structure struct logical_block_metadata_cap is introduced, which
contains the following fields:
- lbmd_flags:
bitmask of logical block metadata capability flags
- lbmd_interval:
the amount of data described by each unit of logical block metadata
- lbmd_size:
size in bytes of the logical block metadata associated with each
interval
- lbmd_opaque_size:
size in bytes of the opaque block tag associated with each interval
- lbmd_opaque_offset:
offset in bytes of the opaque block tag within the logical block
metadata
- lbmd_pi_size:
size in bytes of the T10 PI tuple associated with each interval
- lbmd_pi_offset:

- lbmd_pi_guard_tag_type:

- lbmd_pi_ref_tag_size:
size in bytes of the T10 PI reference tag
- lbmd_pi_storage_tag_size:
size in bytes of the T10 PI storage tag
The internal logic to fetch the capability is encapsulated in a helper
function blk_get_meta_cap(), which uses the blk_integrity profile
associated with the device. The ioctl returns -EOPNOTSUPP, if
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY is not enabled"

Merge tag 'vfs-6.17-rc1.fallocate' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull fallocate updates from Christian Brauner:
"fallocate() currently supports creating preallocated files
efficiently. However, on most filesystems fallocate() will preallocate
blocks in an unwriten state even if FALLOC_FL_ZERO_RANGE is specified.
The extent state must later be converted to a written state when the
user writes data into this range, which can trigger numerous metadata
changes and journal I/O. This may leads to significant write
amplification and performance degradation in synchronous write mode.
At the moment, the only method to avoid this is to create an empty
file and write zero data into it (for example, using 'dd' with a large
block size). However, this method is slow and consumes a considerable
amount of disk bandwidth.
Now that more and more flash-based storage devices are available it is
possible to efficiently write zeros to SSDs using the unmap write
zeroes command if the devices do not write physical zeroes to the
media.
For example, if SCSI SSDs support the UMMAP bit or NVMe SSDs support
the DEAC bit[1], the write zeroes command does not write actual data
to the device, instead, NVMe converts the zeroed range to a
deallocated state, which works fast and consumes almost no disk write
bandwidth.
This series implements the BLK_FEAT_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP feature and
BLK_FLAG_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP_DISABLED flag for SCSI, NVMe and
device-mapper drivers, and add the FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES and
STATX_ATTR_WRITE_ZEROES_UNMAP support for ext4 and raw bdev devices.
fallocate() is subsequently extended with the FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES
flag. FALLOC_FL_WRITE_ZEROES zeroes a specified file range in such a
way that subsequent writes to that range do not require further
changes to the file mapping metadata. This flag is beneficial for
subsequent pure overwriting within this range, as it can save on block
allocation and, consequently, significant metadata changes"

Introduce a new pi_tuple_size field in struct blk_integrity to
explicitly represent the size (in bytes) of the protection information
(PI) tuple. This is a prep patch.
Add validation in blk_validate_integrity_limits() to ensure that
pi size matches the expected size for known checksum types and never
exceeds the pi_tuple_size.

The tuple_size field in blk_integrity currently represents the total
size of metadata associated with each data interval. To make the meaning
more explicit, rename tuple_size to metadata_size. This is a purely

In preparation for fixing device mapper zone write handling, introduce
the inline helper function bio_needs_zone_write_plugging() to test if a
BIO requires handling through zone write plugging using the function
blk_zone_plug_bio(). This function returns true for any write
(op_is_write(bio) == true) operation directed at a zoned block device
using zone write plugging, that is, a block device with a disk that has
a zone write plug hash table.
This helper allows simplifying the check on entry to blk_zone_plug_bio()
and used in to protect calls to it for blk-mq devices and DM devices.

Back in 2015, commit d2be537c3b ("block: bump BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS to
2560") increased the default maximum size of a block device I/O to 2560
sectors (1280 KiB) to "accommodate a 10-data-disk stripe write with
chunk size 128k". This choice is rather arbitrary and since then,
improvements to the block layer have software RAID drivers correctly
advertize their stripe width through chunk_sectors and abuses of
BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS_CAP by drivers (to set the HW limit rather than the
default user controlled maximum I/O size) have been fixed.
Since many block devices can benefit from a larger value of
BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS_CAP, and in particular HDDs, increase this value to
be 4MiB, or 8192 sectors.
And given that BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS_CAP is only used in the block layer
and should not be used by drivers directly, move this macro definition
to the block layer internal header file block/blk.h.

Currently, disks primarily implement the write zeroes command (aka
REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES) through two mechanisms: the first involves
physically writing zeros to the disk media (e.g., HDDs), while the
second performs an unmap operation on the logical blocks, effectively
putting them into a deallocated state (e.g., SSDs). The first method is
generally slow, while the second method is typically very fast.
For example, on certain NVMe SSDs that support NVME_NS_DEAC, submitting
REQ_OP_WRITE_ZEROES requests with the NVME_WZ_DEAC bit can accelerate
the write zeros operation by placing disk blocks into a deallocated
state, which opportunistically avoids writing zeroes to media while
still guaranteeing that subsequent reads from the specified block range
will return zeroed data. This is a best-effort optimization, not a
mandatory requirement, some devices may partially fall back to writing
physical zeroes due to factors such as misalignment or being asked to
clear a block range smaller than the device's internal allocation unit.
Therefore, the speed of this operation is not guaranteed.
It is difficult to determine whether the storage device supports unmap
write zeroes operation. We cannot determine this by only querying
bdev_limits(bdev)->max_write_zeroes_sectors. Therefore, first, add a new
hardware queue limit parameters, max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors, to
indicate whether a device supports this unmap write zeroes operation.
Then, add two new counterpart software queue limits,
max_wzeroes_unmap_sectors and max_user_wzeroes_unmap_sectors, which
allow users to disable this operation if the speed is very slow on some
sepcial devices.
Finally, for the stacked devices cases, initialize these two parameters
to UINT_MAX. This operation should be enabled by both the stacking
driver and all underlying devices.
Thanks to Martin K. Petersen for optimizing the documentation of the
write_zeroes_unmap sysfs interface.

Add new helper disable_elv_switch() and new flag QUEUE_FLAG_NO_ELV_SWITCH
for disabling elevator switch before deleting disk:
- originally flag QUEUE_FLAG_REGISTERED is added for preventing elevator
switch during removing disk, but this flag has been used widely for
other purposes, so add one new flag for disabling elevator switch only
- for avoiding deadlock risk, we have to move elevator queue
register/unregister out of elevator lock and queue freeze, which will be
done in next patch. However, this way adds small race window between elevator
switch and deleting ->queue_kobj, in which elevator queue register/unregister
could be run concurrently. The added helper will be used for avoiding the race
in the following patch.

Merge tag 'for-6.15-rc3-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux
Pull btrfs fixes from David Sterba:
- subpage mode fixes:
- access correct object (folio) when looking up bit offset
- fix assertion condition for number of blocks per folio
- fix upper boundary of locking range in hole punch
- zoned fixes:
- fix potential deadlock caught by lockdep when zone reporting and
device freeze run in parallel
- fix zone write pointer mismatch and NULL pointer dereference when
metadata are converted from DUP to RAID1
- fix error handling when reloc inode creation fails
- in tree-checker, unify error code for header level check
- block layer: add helpers to read zone capacity
* tag 'for-6.15-rc3-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kdave/linux:
btrfs: zoned: skip reporting zone for new block group
block: introduce zone capacity helper
btrfs: tree-checker: adjust error code for header level check
btrfs: fix invalid inode pointer after failure to create reloc inode
btrfs: zoned: return EIO on RAID1 block group write pointer mismatch
btrfs: fix the ASSERT() inside GET_SUBPAGE_BITMAP()
btrfs: avoid page_lockend underflow in btrfs_punch_hole_lock_range()
btrfs: subpage: access correct object when reading bitmap start in subpage_calc_start_bit()
{bdev,disk}_zone_capacity() takes block_device or gendisk and sector position
and returns the zone capacity of the corresponding zone.
With that, move disk_nr_zones() and blk_zone_plug_bio() to consolidate them in
the same #ifdef block.

Currently bdex_statx is only called from the very high-level
vfs_statx_path function, and thus bypassing it for in-kernel calls
to vfs_getattr or vfs_getattr_nosec.
This breaks querying the block ѕize of the underlying device in the
loop driver and also is a pitfall for any other new kernel caller.
Move the call into the lowest level helper to ensure all callers get
the right results.
Fixes: 2d985f8c6b ("vfs: support STATX_DIOALIGN on block devices")
Fixes: f4774e92aa ("loop: take the file system minimum dio alignment into account")
