Mike ChristieandMartin K. Petersen 6ea68a8dc7 scsi: sd: Fix return code handling in sd_spinup_disk()
As found by smatch-ci, scsi_execute_cmd() can return negative or positve
values so we should use a int instead of unsigned int.

Yang XiuweiandMartin K. Petersen 1e111c4b3a scsi: sd: fix missing put_disk() when device_add(&disk_dev) fails
If device_add(&sdkp->disk_dev) fails, put_device() runs
scsi_disk_release(), which frees the scsi_disk but leaves the gendisk
referenced. The device_add_disk() error path in sd_probe() calls
put_disk(gd); call put_disk(gd) here to mirror that cleanup.

Swarna PrabhuandMartin K. Petersen 7179e626b7 scsi: sd: Enable sector size > PAGE_SIZE in SCSI sd driver
The WRITE SAME(16) and WRITE SAME(10) SCSI commands use a page from a
dedicated mempool (sd_page_pool) for their payload. This pool was
initialized to allocate single pages, which was sufficient as long as the
device sector size did not exceed the PAGE_SIZE.

Given that block layer now supports block size upto 64KB, i.e. beyond
PAGE_SIZE, initialize a large page pool in sd_probe() if a higher sector
device is attached, ensuring atomicity. Adapt sd_set_special_bvec() to use
large page pool when a higher sector size device is attached. Hence enable
sector sizes > PAGE_SIZE in SCSI sd driver.

Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
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 *".

and memory allocation failure. Since none of its callers use the return

drivers/scsi/sd.c:3824:1: warning: the frame size of 1160 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

This is caused by a large local struct queue_limits (~400B) allocated on
the stack. Replacing it with a heap allocation using kmalloc()
significantly reduces frame usage. Kernel stack is limited (~8 KB), and
allocating large structs on the stack is discouraged.  As the function
already performs heap allocations (e.g. for buffer), this change fits
well.

Linus Torvalds 278c7d9b5e 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"

Salomon DushimirimanaandMartin K. Petersen 8e48727c26 scsi: sd: Make sd shutdown issue START STOP UNIT appropriately
Commit aa3998dbeb ("ata: libata-scsi: Disable scsi device
manage_system_start_stop") enabled libata EH to manage device power mode
trasitions for system suspend/resume and removed the flag from
ata_scsi_dev_config. However, since the sd_shutdown() function still
relies on the manage_system_start_stop flag, a spin-down command is not
issued to the disk with command "echo 1 > /sys/block/sdb/device/delete"

sd_shutdown() can be called for both system/runtime start stop
operations, so utilize the manage_run_time_start_stop flag set in the
ata_scsi_dev_config and issue a spin-down command during disk removal
when the system is running. This is in addition to when the system is
powering off and manage_shutdown flag is set. The
manage_system_start_stop flag will still be used for drivers that still
set the flag.
