In RNBD client, for a WRITE request of size 0, with only the REQ_PREFLUSH
bit set, while converting from bio_opf to rnbd_opf, we do REQ_OP_WRITE to
RNBD_OP_WRITE, and then check if the rq is flush through function
op_is_flush. That function checks both REQ_PREFLUSH and REQ_FUA flag, and
if any of them is set, the RNBD_F_FUA is set.
On the RNBD server side, while converting the RNBD flags to req flags, if
the RNBD_F_FUA flag is set, we just set the REQ_FUA flag. This means we
have lost the PREFLUSH flag, and added the REQ_FUA flag in its place.
This commits adds a new RNBD_F_PREFLUSH flag, and also adds separate
handling for REQ_PREFLUSH flag. On the server side, if the RNBD_F_PREFLUSH
is present, the REQ_PREFLUSH is added to the bio.
Since it is a change in the wire protocol, bump the minor version of
protocol.
The change is backwards compatible, and does not change the functionality
if either the client or the server is running older/newer versions.
If the client side is running the older version, both REQ_PREFLUSH and
REQ_FUA is converted to RNBD_F_FUA. The server running newer one would
still add only the REQ_FUA flag which is what happens when both client and
server is running the older version.
If the client side is running the newer version, just like before a
RNBD_F_FUA is added, but now a RNBD_F_PREFLUSH is also added to the
rnbd_opf. In case the server is running the older version the
RNBD_F_PREFLUSH is ignored, and only the RNBD_F_FUA is processed.

Replace simple_strtol() with the recommended kstrtoul() for parsing the
'ramdisk_size=' boot parameter. Unlike simple_strtol(), which returns a
long, kstrtoul() converts the string directly to an unsigned long and
avoids implicit casting.
Check the return value of kstrtoul() and reject invalid values. This
adds error handling while preserving behavior for existing values, and
removes use of the deprecated simple_strtol() helper. The current code
silently sets 'rd_size = 0' if parsing fails, instead of leaving the
default value (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE) unchanged.

Implement async partition scan to avoid IO hang when reading partition
tables. Similar to nvme_partition_scan_work(), partition scanning is
deferred to a work queue to prevent deadlocks.
When partition scan happens synchronously during add_disk(), IO errors
can cause the partition scan to wait while holding ub->mutex, which
can deadlock with other operations that need the mutex.
Changes:
- Add partition_scan_work to ublk_device structure
- Implement ublk_partition_scan_work() to perform async scan
- Always suppress sync partition scan during add_disk()
- Schedule async work after add_disk() for trusted daemons
- Add flush_work() in ublk_stop_dev() before grabbing ub->mutex

If a ublk server process releases a ublk char device file, any requests
dispatched to the ublk server but not yet completed will retain a ref
value of UBLK_REFCOUNT_INIT. Before commit e63d2228ef ("ublk: simplify
aborting ublk request"), __ublk_fail_req() would decrement the reference
count before completing the failed request. However, that commit
optimized __ublk_fail_req() to call __ublk_complete_rq() directly
without decrementing the request reference count.
The leaked reference count incorrectly allows user copy and zero copy
operations on the completed ublk request. It also triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE(refcount_read(&io->ref)) warnings in ublk_queue_reinit()
and ublk_deinit_queue().
Commit c5c5eb24ed ("ublk: avoid ublk_io_release() called after ublk
char dev is closed") already fixed the issue for ublk devices using
UBLK_F_SUPPORT_ZERO_COPY or UBLK_F_AUTO_BUF_REG. However, the reference
count leak also affects UBLK_F_USER_COPY, the other reference-counted
data copy mode. Fix the condition in ublk_check_and_reset_active_ref()
to include all reference-counted data copy modes. This ensures that any
ublk requests still owned by the ublk server when it exits have their
reference counts reset to 0.

When one process(such as udev) opens ublk block device (e.g., to read
the partition table via bdev_open()), a deadlock[1] can occur:
1. bdev_open() grabs disk->open_mutex
2. The process issues read I/O to ublk backend to read partition table
3. In __ublk_complete_rq(), blk_update_request() or blk_mq_end_request()
runs bio->bi_end_io() callbacks
4. If this triggers fput() on file descriptor of ublk block device, the
work may be deferred to current task's task work (see fput() implementation)
5. This eventually calls blkdev_release() from the same context
6. blkdev_release() tries to grab disk->open_mutex again
7. Deadlock: same task waiting for a mutex it already holds
The fix is to run blk_update_request() and blk_mq_end_request() with bottom
halves disabled. This forces blkdev_release() to run in kernel work-queue
context instead of current task work context, and allows ublk server to make
forward progress, and avoids the deadlock.

Handling most of the ublksrv_ctrl_cmd opcodes require locking a mutex,
so ublk_ctrl_uring_cmd() bails out with EAGAIN when called with the
IO_URING_F_NONBLOCK issue flag. However, several opcodes can be handled
without blocking:
- UBLK_CMD_GET_QUEUE_AFFINITY
- UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO
- UBLK_CMD_GET_DEV_INFO2
- UBLK_U_CMD_GET_FEATURES
Handle these opcodes synchronously instead of returning EAGAIN so
io_uring doesn't need to issue the command via the worker thread pool.

Add a new helper function blk_rq_nr_bvec() that returns the number of
bvecs in a request. This count represents the number of iterations
rq_for_each_bvec() would perform on a request.
Drivers need to pre-allocate bvec arrays before iterating through
a request's bvecs. Currently, they manually count bvecs using
rq_for_each_bvec() in a loop, which is repetitive. The new helper
centralizes this logic.
This pattern exists in loop and zloop drivers, where multi-bio requests
require copying bvecs into a contiguous array before creating
an iov_iter for file operations.
Update loop and zloop drivers to use the new helper, eliminating
duplicate code.
This patch also provides a clear API to avoid any potential misuse of
blk_nr_phys_segments() for calculating the bvecs since, one bvec can
have more than one segments and use of blk_nr_phys_segments() can
lead to extra memory allocation :-
[ 6155.673749] nullb_bio: 128K bio as ONE bvec: sector=0, size=131072
[ 6155.673846] null_blk: #### null_handle_data_transfer:1375

Merge tag 'for-6.19/io_uring-20251201' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux
Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Unify how task_work cancelations are detected, placing it in the
task_work running state rather than needing to check the task state
- Series cleaning up and moving the cancelation code to where it
belongs, in cancel.c
- Cleanup of waitid and futex argument handling
- Add support for mixed sized SQEs. 6.18 added support for mixed sized
CQEs, improving flexibility and efficiency of workloads that need big
CQEs. This adds similar support for SQEs, where the occasional need
for a 128b SQE doesn't necessitate having all SQEs be 128b in size
- Introduce zcrx and SQ/CQ layout queries. The former returns what zcrx
features are available. And both return the ring size information to
help with allocation size calculation for user provided rings like
IORING_SETUP_NO_MMAP and IORING_MEM_REGION_TYPE_USER
- Zcrx updates for 6.19. It includes a bunch of small patches,
IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_CTRL and RQ flushing and David's work on sharing
zcrx b/w multiple io_uring instances
- Series cleaning up ring initializations, notable deduplicating ring
size and offset calculations. It also moves most of the checking
before doing any allocations, making the code simpler
- Add support for getsockname and getpeername, which is mostly a
trivial hookup after a bit of refactoring on the networking side
- Various fixes and cleanups

Core & protocols
----------------
- Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting
in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the
number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles.
- Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC
queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out
of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly
busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet
reordering.
- Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths.
- Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did
for Rx skbs).
- Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric.
- Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly
quite expensive on recent AMD machines.
- Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets.
- Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure,
improving the Rx performance.
- Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory.
- Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting
(using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit
for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups.
- Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection.
- Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT.
- Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily
aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low.
- Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations.
- Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload.
- Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837).
- Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449).
- Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL.
- Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock.
- Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC.
- Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length,
from Kees.
- Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers.
- Some preparations for slimming down struct page.
- YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard.
- Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly
computed derived statistics and summarized system state.

- Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x).
- Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec
and performs RSS.
- Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the default
or a user override. Allow resetting back to default.

Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Add support for 'syn'.
Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a
syntax tree of Rust source code.
Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural
macros, but contains some APIs that may be useful more generally.
'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as
'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We
will use it in the 'macros' crate too.
'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io), and
it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount of code
is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for these
crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big, e.g. +7k
-3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year.
'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'.
I only modified their code to remove a third dependency
('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be
easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided scripts.
They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other
vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while.
Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context.
- Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for doctests.
Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public items
and use names such as 'foo'.
Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code as
possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is important
for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust does not
support yet but we are stricter).
'kernel' crate:
- Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'.
Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint,
and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension trait
and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core' import.
This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the
replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who
split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here.
- Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals.
C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's
(the 'core' one), so now we can write:
c"hi"
instead of:
c_str!("hi")
- Add 'num' module for numerical features.
It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive
integer types.
It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer
value that requires only the 'N' less significant bits of the wrapped
type to be encoded:
// An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used.
let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>:🆕:<15>();
assert_eq!(v.get(), 15);
'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with
bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits.
Values can be constructed from simple non-constant expressions or,
for more complex ones, validated at runtime.
'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations (with
both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a compatible
backing type), casts to change the backing type, extending/shrinking
and infallible/fallible conversions from/to primitives as applicable.
- 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor').
It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where appropriate.
The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed to 'CursorMut'.
kallsyms:
- Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs.
'pin-init' crate:
- A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for
him this cycle).
Documentation:
- Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie).
Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released
2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough.
We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version in
Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the first
one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add entry for the new 'num' module.
- Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to contribute
for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in practice.
And a few other cleanups and improvements.

Pull Rust updates from Miguel Ojeda:
"Toolchain and infrastructure:
- Add support for 'syn'.
Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a
syntax tree of Rust source code.
Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural
macros, but contains some APIs that may be useful more generally.
'syn' allows us to greatly simplify writing complex macros such as
'pin-init' (Benno has already prepared the 'syn'-based version). We
will use it in the 'macros' crate too.
'syn' is the most downloaded Rust crate (according to crates.io),
and it is also used by the Rust compiler itself. While the amount
of code is substantial, there should not be many updates needed for
these crates, and even if there are, they should not be too big,
e.g. +7k -3k lines across the 3 crates in the last year.
'syn' requires two smaller dependencies: 'quote' and 'proc-macro2'.
I only modified their code to remove a third dependency
('unicode-ident') and to add the SPDX identifiers. The code can be
easily verified to exactly match upstream with the provided
scripts.
They are all licensed under "Apache-2.0 OR MIT", like the other
vendored 'alloc' crate we had for a while.
Please see the merge commit with the cover letter for more context.
- Allow 'unreachable_pub' and 'clippy::disallowed_names' for
doctests.
Examples (i.e. doctests) may want to do things like show public
items and use names such as 'foo'.
Nevertheless, we still try to keep examples as close to real code
as possible (this is part of why running Clippy on doctests is
important for us, e.g. for safety comments, which userspace Rust
does not support yet but we are stricter).
'kernel' crate:
- Replace our custom 'CStr' type with 'core::ffi::CStr'.
Using the standard library type reduces our custom code footprint,
and we retain needed custom functionality through an extension
trait and a new 'fmt!' macro which replaces the previous 'core'
import.
This started in 6.17 and continued in 6.18, and we finally land the
replacement now. This required quite some stamina from Tamir, who
split the changes in steps to prepare for the flag day change here.
- Replace 'kernel::c_str!' with C string literals.
C string literals were added in Rust 1.77, which produce '&CStr's
(the 'core' one), so now we can write:
c"hi"
instead of:
c_str!("hi")
- Add 'num' module for numerical features.
It includes the 'Integer' trait, implemented for all primitive
integer types.
It also includes the 'Bounded' integer wrapping type: an integer
value that requires only the 'N' least significant bits of the
wrapped type to be encoded:
// An unsigned 8-bit integer, of which only the 4 LSBs are used.
let v = Bounded::<u8, 4>:🆕:<15>();
assert_eq!(v.get(), 15);
'Bounded' is useful to e.g. enforce guarantees when working with
bitfields that have an arbitrary number of bits.
Values can also be constructed from simple non-constant expressions
or, for more complex ones, validated at runtime.
'Bounded' also comes with comparison and arithmetic operations
(with both their backing type and other 'Bounded's with a
compatible backing type), casts to change the backing type,
extending/shrinking and infallible/fallible conversions from/to
primitives as applicable.
- 'rbtree' module: add immutable cursor ('Cursor').
It enables to use just an immutable tree reference where
appropriate. The existing fully-featured mutable cursor is renamed
to 'CursorMut'.
kallsyms:
- Fix wrong "big" kernel symbol type read from procfs.
'pin-init' crate:
- A couple minor fixes (Benno asked me to pick these patches up for
him this cycle).
Documentation:
- Quick Start guide: add Debian 13 (Trixie).
Debian Stable is now able to build Linux, since Debian 13 (released
2025-08-09) packages Rust 1.85.0, which is recent enough.
We are planning to propose that the minimum supported Rust version
in Linux follows Debian Stable releases, with Debian 13 being the
first one we upgrade to, i.e. Rust 1.85.
MAINTAINERS:
- Add entry for the new 'num' module.
- Remove Alex as Rust maintainer: he hasn't had the time to
contribute for a few years now, so it is a no-op change in
practice.
And a few other cleanups and improvements"

Merge tag 'kernel-6.19-rc1.cred' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs
Pull cred guard updates from Christian Brauner:
"This contains substantial credential infrastructure improvements
adding guard-based credential management that simplifies code and
eliminates manual reference counting in many subsystems.
Features:
- Kernel Credential Guards
Add with_kernel_creds() and scoped_with_kernel_creds() guards that
allow using the kernel credentials without allocating and copying
them. This was requested by Linus after seeing repeated
prepare_kernel_creds() calls that duplicate the kernel credentials
only to drop them again later.
The new guards completely avoid the allocation and never expose the
temporary variable to hold the kernel credentials anywhere in
callers.
- Generic Credential Guards
Add scoped_with_creds() guards for the common override_creds() and
revert_creds() pattern. This builds on earlier work that made
override_creds()/revert_creds() completely reference count free.
- Prepare Credential Guards
Add prepare credential guards for the more complex pattern of
preparing a new set of credentials and overriding the current
credentials with them:
- prepare_creds()
- modify new creds
- override_creds()
- revert_creds()
- put_cred()
Cleanups:
- Make init_cred static since it should not be directly accessed
- Add kernel_cred() helper to properly access the kernel credentials
- Fix scoped_class() macro that was introduced two cycles ago
- coredump: split out do_coredump() from vfs_coredump() for cleaner
credential handling
- coredump: move revert_cred() before coredump_cleanup()
- coredump: mark struct mm_struct as const
- coredump: pass struct linux_binfmt as const

Refactor auto buffer register code and prepare for supporting batch IO
feature, and the main motivation is to put 'ublk_io' operation code
together, so that per-io lock can be applied for the code block.
The key changes are:
- Rename ublk_auto_buf_reg() as ublk_do_auto_buf_reg()
- Introduce an enum `auto_buf_reg_res` to represent the result of
the buffer registration attempt (FAIL, FALLBACK, OK).
- Split the existing `ublk_do_auto_buf_reg` function into two:
- `__ublk_do_auto_buf_reg`: Performs the actual buffer registration
and returns the `auto_buf_reg_res` status.
- `ublk_do_auto_buf_reg`: A wrapper that calls the internal function
and handles the I/O preparation based on the result.
- Introduce `ublk_prep_auto_buf_reg_io` to encapsulate the logic for
preparing the I/O for completion after buffer registration.
- Pass the `tag` directly to `ublk_auto_buf_reg_fallback` to avoid
recalculating it.
This refactoring makes the control flow clearer and isolates the different
stages of the auto buffer registration process.

When the page size exceeds 4KB, if bd_wb_limit is set to a value that is
not aligned with the page size, it will cause a numerical wrap-around
issue for bd_wb_limit. For example, when the page size is set to 16KB and
bd_wb_limit is set to 3, after one write-back operation, the value of
bd_wb_limit will become -1. More seriously, since bd_wb_limit is an
unsigned number, its value may become as large as 2^64 - 1.
The core reason for this problem is that the unit of bd_wb_limit is 4KB.
For example, when a write-back occurs on a system with a page size of
16KB, 4 needs to be subtracted from bd_wb_limit. This operation takes
place in the zram_account_writeback_submit function.
This patch fixes the issue by limiting bd_wb_limit to be an integer
multiple of PAGE_SIZE / 4096.

First, writeback bdev ->bitmap bits are set only from one context, as we
can have only one single task performing writeback, so we cannot race with
anything else. Remove retry path.
Second, we always check ZRAM_WB flag to distinguish writtenback slots, so
we should not confuse 0 bdev block index and 0 handle. We can use first
bdev block (0 bit) for writeback as well.
While at it, give functions slightly more accurate names, as we don't
alloc/free anything there, we reserve a block for async writeback or
release the block.

Patch series "zram: introduce writeback bio batching", v6.
As writeback is becoming more and more common the longstanding limitations
of zram writeback throughput are becoming more visible. Introduce
writeback bio batching so that multiple writeback bios can be processed
simultaneously.
This patch (of 6):
As was stated in a comment [1] a single page writeback IO is not
efficient, but it works. It's time to address this throughput limitation
as writeback becomes used more often. Introduce batched (multiple) bio
writeback support to take advantage of parallel requests processing and
better requests scheduling.
Approach used in this patch doesn't use a dedicated kthread like in [2],
or blk-plug like in [3]. Dedicated kthread adds complexity, which can be
avoided. Apart from that not all zram setups use writeback, so having
numerous per-device kthreads (on systems that create multiple zram
devices) hanging around is not the most optimal thing to do. blk-plug, on
the other hand, works best when request are sequential, which doesn't
particularly fit zram writebck IO patterns: zram writeback IO patterns are
expected to be random, due to how bdev block reservation/release are
handled. blk-plug approach also works in cycles: idle IO, when zram sets
up requests in a batch, is followed by bursts of IO, when zram submits the
entire batch.
Instead we use a batch of requests and submit new bio as soon as one of
the in-flight requests completes.
For the time being the writeback batch size (maximum number of in-flight
bio requests) is set to 32 for all devices. A follow up patch adds a
writeback_batch_size device attribute, so the batch size becomes run-time
configurable.

Add hint for using IOCB_NOWAIT to handle loop aio command for avoiding
to cause write(especially randwrite) perf regression on sparse backed file.
Try IOCB_NOWAIT in the following situations:
- backing file is block device
OR
- READ aio command
OR
- there isn't any queued blocking async WRITEs, because NOWAIT won't cause
contention with blocking WRITE, which often implies exclusive lock
With this simple policy, perf regression of randwrite/write on sparse
backing file is fixed.

Try to handle loop aio command via NOWAIT IO first, then we can avoid to
queue the aio command into workqueue. This is usually one big win in
case that FS block mapping is stable, Mikulas verified [1] that this way
improves IO perf by close to 5X in 12jobs sequential read/write test,
in which FS block mapping is just stable.
Fallback to workqueue in case of -EAGAIN. This way may bring a little
cost from the 1st retry, but when running the following write test over
loop/sparse_file, the actual effect on randwrite is obvious:
```
truncate -s 4G 1.img #1.img is created on XFS/virtio-scsi
losetup -f 1.img --direct-io=on
fio --direct=1 --bs=4k --runtime=40 --time_based --numjobs=1 --ioengine=libaio \
--iodepth=16 --group_reporting=1 --filename=/dev/loop0 -name=job --rw=$RW
```
- RW=randwrite: obvious IOPS drop observed
- RW=write: a little drop(%5 - 10%)
This perf drop on randwrite over sparse file will be addressed in the
following patch.
BLK_MQ_F_BLOCKING has to be set for calling into .read_iter() or .write_iter()
which might sleep even though it is NOWAIT, and the only effect is that rcu read
lock is replaced with srcu read lock.

The zone append operation processing for zloop devices is similar to any
other command, that is, the operation is processed as a command work
item, without any special serialization between the work items (beside
the zone mutex for mutually exclusive code sections).
This processing is fine and gives excellent performance. However, it has
a side effect: zone append operation are very often reordered and
processed in a sequence that is very different from their issuing order
by the user. This effect is very visible using an XFS file system on top
of a zloop device. A simple file write leads to many file extents as the
data writes using zone append are reordered and so result in the
physical order being different than the file logical order.
E.g. executing:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test bs=1M count=10 && sync
$ xfs_bmap /mnt/test
/mnt/test:
0: [0..4095]: 2162688..2166783
1: [4096..6143]: 2168832..2170879
2: [6144..8191]: 2166784..2168831
3: [8192..10239]: 2170880..2172927
4: [10240..12287]: 2174976..2177023
5: [12288..14335]: 2172928..2174975
6: [14336..20479]: 2177024..2183167
For 10 IOs, 6 extents are created.
This is fine and actually allows to exercise XFS zone garbage collection
very well. However, this also makes debugging/working on XFS data
placement harder as the underlying device will most of the time reorder
IOs, resulting in many file extents.
Allow a user to mitigate this with the new ordered_zone_append
configuration parameter. For a zloop device created with this parameter
specified, the sector of a zone append command is set early, when the
command is submitted by the block layer with the zloop_queue_rq()
function, instead of in the zloop_rw() function which is exectued later
in the command work item context. This change ensures that more often
than not, zone append operations data end up being written in the same
order as the command submission by the user.
In the case of XFS, this leads to far less file data extents. E.g., for
the previous example, we get a single file data extent for the written
file.
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/test bs=1M count=10 && sync
$ xfs_bmap /mnt/test
/mnt/test:
0: [0..20479]: 2162688..2183167
Since we cannot use a mutex in the context of the zloop_queue_rq()
function to atomically set a zone append operation sector to the target
zone write pointer location and increment that the write pointer, a new
per-zone spinlock is introduced to protect a zone write pointer access
and modifications. To check a zone write pointer location and set a zone
append operation target sector to that value, the function
zloop_set_zone_append_sector() is introduced and called from
zloop_queue_rq().

A zloop zoned block device declares to the block layer that it supports
zone append operations. That is, a zloop device ressembles an NVMe ZNS
devices supporting zone append.
This native support is fine but it does not allow exercising the block
layer zone write plugging emulation of zone append, as is done with SCSI
or ATA SMR HDDs.
Introduce the zone_append configuration parameter to allow creating a
zloop device without native support for zone append, thus relying on the
block layer zone append emulation. If not specified, zone append support
is enabled by default. Otherwise, a value of 0 disables native zone
append and a value of 1 enables it.

The function zloop_rw() already checks early that a request is fully
contained within the target zone. So this check does not need to be done
again for regular writes to sequential zones. Furthermore, since zone
append operations are always directed to the zone write pointer
location, we do not need to check for their alignment to that value
after setting it. So turn the "if" checking the write pointer alignment
into an "else if".
While at it, improve the comment describing the write pointer
modification and how this value is corrected in case of error.

zloop_rw() will fail any regular write operation that targets a full
sequential zone. The check for this is indirect and achieved by checking
the write pointer alignment of the write operation. But this check is
ineffective for zone append operations since these are alwasy
automatically directed at a zone write pointer.
Prevent zone append operations from being executed in a full zone with
an explicit check of the zone condition.

fd0: rw=0, sector=0, nr_sectors = 16 limit=8
[ 525.341991] floppy: error 10 while reading block 0
Turns out floppy.c __floppy_read_block_0 tries to read one page for
the first test read to determine the disk size and thus fails if that
is greater than 4k. Adjust minimum MAX_DISK_SIZE to PAGE_SIZE to fix
floppy on sparc64 and likely all other PAGE_SIZE != 4KB configs.

Commit 87aac3a80a ("nbd: call nbd_config_put() before notifying the

recv_work, in order to ensure that nbd_start_device_ioctl() would not
be woken up while nbd->task_recv was still uncleared.
However, in nbd_start_device_ioctl(), after being woken up it explicitly
calls flush_workqueue() to make sure all current works are finished.
Therefore, there is no need to move the config put ahead of the wakeup.
Move nbd_config_put() to the end of recv_work, so that the reference is
held for the whole lifetime of the worker thread. This makes sure the
config cannot be freed while recv_work is still running, even if clear
+ reconfigure interleave.
In addition, we don't need to worry about recv_work dropping the last

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.

Implement NUMA-friendly memory allocation for ublk driver to improve
performance on multi-socket systems.
This commit includes the following changes:
1. Rename __queues to queues, dropping the __ prefix since the field is
now accessed directly throughout the codebase rather than only through
the ublk_get_queue() helper.
2. Remove the queue_size field from struct ublk_device as it is no longer
needed.
3. Move queue allocation and deallocation into ublk_init_queue() and
ublk_deinit_queue() respectively, improving encapsulation. This
simplifies ublk_init_queues() and ublk_deinit_queues() to just
iterate and call the per-queue functions.
4. Add ublk_get_queue_numa_node() helper function to determine the
appropriate NUMA node for a queue by finding the first CPU mapped
to that queue via tag_set.map[HCTX_TYPE_DEFAULT].mq_map[] and
converting it to a NUMA node using cpu_to_node(). This function is
called internally by ublk_init_queue() to determine the allocation
node.
5. Allocate each queue structure on its local NUMA node using
kvzalloc_node() in ublk_init_queue().
6. Allocate the I/O command buffer on the same NUMA node using
alloc_pages_node().
This reduces memory access latency on multi-socket NUMA systems by
ensuring each queue's data structures are local to the CPUs that
access them.

block size, so set the queue limit to reflect that.
Unless we set up the limit based on the logical block size, we will go
out of page bounds in copy_to_nullb / copy_from_nullb.
Apparently this wasn't noticed so far because none of the tests generate
such buffers, but since commit 851c4c96db ("xfs: implement
XFS_IOC_DIOINFO in terms of vfs_getattr") xfstests generates unaligned
I/O, which now lead to memory corruption when using null_blk devices
with 4k block size.
Fixes: bf8d08532b ("iomap: add support for dma aligned direct-io")
Fixes: b1a000d3b8 ("block: relax direct io memory alignment")

Merge tag 'block-6.18-20251023' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux
Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
- Fix dma alignment for PI
- Fix selinux bogosity with nbd, where sendmsg would get rejected
* tag 'block-6.18-20251023' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/axboe/linux:
block: require LBA dma_alignment when using PI
nbd: override creds to kernel when calling sock_{send,recv}msg()
sock_{send,recv}msg() internally calls security_socket_{send,recv}msg(),
which does security checks (e.g. SELinux) for socket access against the
current task. However, _sock_xmit() in drivers/block/nbd.c may be called
indirectly from a userspace syscall, where the NBD socket access would
be incorrectly checked against the calling userspace task (which simply
tries to read/write a file that happens to reside on an NBD device).
To fix this, temporarily override creds to kernel ones before calling
the sock_*() functions. This allows the security modules to recognize
this as internal access by the kernel, which will normally be allowed.
A way to trigger the issue is to do the following (on a system with
SELinux set to enforcing):
### Create nbd device:
truncate -s 256M /tmp/testfile
nbd-server localhost:10809 /tmp/testfile
### Connect to the nbd server:
nbd-client localhost
### Create mdraid array
mdadm --create -l 1 -n 2 /dev/md/testarray /dev/nbd0 missing
After these steps, assuming the SELinux policy doesn't allow the
unexpected access pattern, errors will be visible on the kernel console:

- The 37 patch series "mm: remove nth_page()" from David Hildenbrand
makes rather a lot of adjustments at various nth_page() callsites,
eventually permitting the removal of that undesirable helper function.
- The 2 patch series "introduce kasan.write_only option in hw-tags" from

the new memdesc layer to clean up the ptdesc code a little.
- The 3 patch series "Fix va_high_addr_switch.sh test failure" from

- The 2 patch series "Minor fixes for memory allocation profiling" from
Suren Baghdasaryan addresses a couple of minor issues in relatively new
memory allocation profiling feature.
- The 3 patch series "Small cleanups" from Matthew Wilcox has a few
cleanups in preparation for more memdesc work.

warnings" from Muhammad Anjum adds that compiler check to selftests code
and fixes the fallout, by removing dead code.
- The 10 patch series "Improvements to Victim Process Thawing and OOM
Reaper Traversal Order" from zhongjinji makes a number of improvements
in the OOM killer: mainly thawing a more appropriate group of victim
threads so they can release resources.
- The 5 patch series "mm/damon: misc fixups and improvements for 6.18"
from SeongJae Park is a bunch of small and unrelated fixups for DAMON.
- The 7 patch series "mm/damon: define and use DAMON initialization
check function" from SeongJae Park implement reliability and
maintainability improvements to a recently-added bug fix.
- The 2 patch series "mm/damon/stat: expose auto-tuned intervals and
non-idle ages" from SeongJae Park provides additional transparency to
userspace clients of the DAMON_STAT information.
- The 2 patch series "Expand scope of khugepaged anonymous collapse"
from Dev Jain removes some constraints on khubepaged's collapsing of
anon VMAs. It also increases the success rate of MADV_COLLAPSE against
an anon vma.
- The 2 patch series "mm: do not assume file == vma->vm_file in
compat_vma_mmap_prepare()" from Lorenzo Stoakes moves us further towards
removal of file_operations.mmap(). This patchset concentrates upon
clearing up the treatment of stacked filesystems.
- The 6 patch series "mm: Improve mlock tracking for large folios" from
Kiryl Shutsemau provides some fixes and improvements to mlock's tracking
of large folios. /proc/meminfo's "Mlocked" field became more accurate.
- The 2 patch series "mm/ksm: Fix incorrect accounting of KSM counters
during fork" from Donet Tom fixes several user-visible KSM stats
inaccuracies across forks and adds selftest code to verify these
counters.
- The 2 patch series "mm_slot: fix the usage of mm_slot_entry" from Wei
Yang addresses some potential but presently benign issues in KSM's
mm_slot handling.

- MD pull request via Yu:
- Add support for a lockless bitmap.
A key feature for the new bitmap are that the IO fastpath is
lockless. If a user issues lots of write IO to the same bitmap
bit in a short time, only the first write has additional overhead
to update bitmap bit, no additional overhead for the following
writes.
By supporting only resync or recover written data, means in the
case creating new array or replacing with a new disk, there is no
need to do a full disk resync/recovery.
- Switch ->getgeo() and ->bios_param() to using struct gendisk rather
than struct block_device.
- Rust block changes via Andreas. This series adds configuration via
configfs and remote completion to the rnull driver. The series also
includes a set of changes to the rust block device driver API: a few
cleanup patches, and a few features supporting the rnull changes.
The series removes the raw buffer formatting logic from
`kernel::block` and improves the logic available in `kernel::string`
to support the same use as the removed logic.
- floppy arch cleanups
- Reduce the number of dereferencing needed for ublk commands
- Restrict supported sockets for nbd. Mostly done to eliminate a class
of issues perpetually reported by syzbot, by using nonsensical socket
setups.
- A few s390 dasd block fixes
- Fix a few issues around atomic writes
- Improve DMA interation for integrity requests
- Improve how iovecs are treated with regards to O_DIRECT aligment
constraints.
We used to require each segment to adhere to the constraints, now
only the request as a whole needs to.
- Clean up and improve p2p support, enabling use of p2p for metadata
payloads
- Improve locking of request lookup, using SRCU where appropriate
- Use page references properly for brd, avoiding very long RCU sections

Pull io_uring updates from Jens Axboe:
- Store ring provided buffers locally for the users, rather than stuff
them into struct io_kiocb.
These types of buffers must always be fully consumed or recycled in
the current context, and leaving them in struct io_kiocb is hence not
a good ideas as that struct has a vastly different life time.
Basically just an architecture cleanup that can help prevent issues
with ring provided buffers in the future.
- Support for mixed CQE sizes in the same ring.
Before this change, a CQ ring either used the default 16b CQEs, or it
was setup with 32b CQE using IORING_SETUP_CQE32. For use cases where
a few 32b CQEs were needed, this caused everything else to use big
CQEs. This is wasteful both in terms of memory usage, but also memory
bandwidth for the posted CQEs.
With IORING_SETUP_CQE_MIXED, applications may use request types that
post both normal 16b and big 32b CQEs on the same ring.
- Add helpers for async data management, to make it harder for opcode
handlers to mess it up.
- Add support for multishot for uring_cmd, which ublk can use. This
helps improve efficiency, by providing a persistent request type that
can trigger multiple CQEs.
- Add initial support for ring feature querying.
We had basic support for probe operations, but the API isn't great.
Rather than expand that, add support for QUERY which is easily
expandable and can cover a lot more cases than the existing probe
support. This will help applications get a better idea of what
operations are supported on a given host.
- zcrx improvements from Pavel:
- Improve refill entry alignment for better caching
- Various cleanups, especially around deduplicating normal
memory vs dmabuf setup.
- Generalisation of the niov size (Patch 12). It's still hard
coded to PAGE_SIZE on init, but will let the user to specify
the rx buffer length on setup.
- Syscall / synchronous bufer return. It'll be used as a slow
fallback path for returning buffers when the refill queue is
full. Useful for tolerating slight queue size misconfiguration
or with inconsistent load.
- Accounting more memory to cgroups.
- Additional independent cleanups that will also be useful for
mutli-area support.

ublk_setup_iod() checks first whether the request is a zoned operation
issued to a device without zoned support and returns BLK_STS_IOERR if
so. However, such a request would already hit the default case in the
subsequent switch statement and fail the ublk_queue_is_zoned() check,
which also results in a return of BLK_STS_IOERR. So remove the redundant
early check for unsupported zone ops.

Commit 79525b51ac ("io_uring: fix nvme's 32b cqes on mixed cq") split
out a separate io_uring_cmd_done32() helper for ->uring_cmd()
implementations that return 32-byte CQEs. The res2 value passed to
io_uring_cmd_done() is now unused because __io_uring_cmd_done() ignores
it when is_cqe32 is passed as false. So drop the parameter from
io_uring_cmd_done() to simplify the callers and clarify that it's not
possible to return an extra value beyond the 32-bit CQE result.

For ublk servers with many ublk queues, accessing the ublk_queue in
ublk_unmap_io() is a frequent cache miss. Pass to __ublk_complete_rq()
whether the ublk server's data buffer needs to be copied to the request.
In the callers __ublk_fail_req() and ublk_ch_uring_cmd_local(), get the
flags from the ublk_device instead, as its flags have just been read.
In ublk_put_req_ref(), pass false since all the features that require
reference counting disable copying of the data buffer upon completion.

Merge tag 'block-6.17-20250918' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux
Pull block fixes from Jens Axboe:
"A set of fixes for an issue with md array assembly and drbd for
devices supporting write zeros"
* tag 'block-6.17-20250918' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux:
drbd: init queue_limits->max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors parameter
md: init queue_limits->max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors parameter
The parameter max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors in queue_limits should be
equal to max_write_zeroes_sectors if it is set to a non-zero value.
However, when the backend bdev is specified, this parameter is
initialized to UINT_MAX during the call to blk_set_stacking_limits(),
while only max_write_zeroes_sectors is adjusted. Therefore, this
discrepancy triggers a value check failure in blk_validate_limits().
Since the drvd driver doesn't yet support unmap write zeroes, so fix
this failure by explicitly setting max_hw_wzeroes_unmap_sectors to
zero.

Parallel concurrent writes to the same zram index result in leaked

CPU0 CPU1
zram_slot_lock()
zs_free(handle)
zram_slot_lock()
zram_slot_lock()
zs_free(handle)
zram_slot_lock()
compress compress
handle = zs_malloc() handle = zs_malloc()
zram_slot_lock
zram_set_handle(handle)
zram_slot_lock
zram_slot_lock
zram_set_handle(handle)
zram_slot_lock
Either CPU0 or CPU1 zsmalloc handle will leak because zs_free() is done
too early. In fact, we need to reset zram entry right before we set its
new handle, all under the same slot lock scope.

sysfs handlers should be called under ->init_lock and are not supposed to
unlock it until return, otherwise e.g. a concurrent reset() can occur.
There is one handler that breaks that rule: recomp_algorithm_show().
Move ->init_lock handling outside of __comp_algorithm_show() (also drop it
and call zcomp_available_show() directly) so that the entire
recomp_algorithm_show() loop is protected by the lock, as opposed to
protecting individual iterations.
The patch does not need to go to -stable, as it does not fix any
runtime errors (at least I can't think of any). It makes
recomp_algorithm_show() "atomic" w.r.t. zram reset() (just like the
rest of zram sysfs show() handlers), that's a pretty minor change.

ublk_mark_io_ready() tracks whether all the ublk_device's I/Os have been
fetched by incrementing ublk_queue's nr_io_ready count and incrementing
ublk_device's nr_queues_ready count if the whole queue is ready.
Simplify the logic by just tracking the total number of fetched I/Os on
each ublk_device. When this count reaches nr_hw_queues * queue_depth,
the ublk_device is ready to receive I/O.

Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the

WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to
schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use
again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND.
This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API.
alloc_workqueue() treats all queues as per-CPU by default, while unbound
workqueues must opt-in via WQ_UNBOUND.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This default is suboptimal: most workloads benefit from unbound queues,
allowing the scheduler to place worker threads where they’re needed and
reducing noise when CPUs are isolated.
This patch adds a new WQ_PERCPU flag to explicitly request the use of
the per-CPU behavior. Both flags coexist for one release cycle to allow
callers to transition their calls.
Once migration is complete, WQ_UNBOUND can be removed and unbound will
become the implicit default.
With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU.
All existing users have been updated accordingly.

ublk_ch_uring_cmd_local() is a thin wrapper around __ublk_ch_uring_cmd()
that copies the ublksrv_io_cmd from user-mapped memory to the stack
using READ_ONCE(). This ublksrv_io_cmd is passed by pointer to
__ublk_ch_uring_cmd() and __ublk_ch_uring_cmd() is a large function
unlikely to be inlined, so __ublk_ch_uring_cmd() will have to load the
ublksrv_io_cmd fields back from the stack. Inline __ublk_ch_uring_cmd()
into ublk_ch_uring_cmd_local() and load the ublksrv_io_cmd fields into
local variables with READ_ONCE(). This allows the compiler to delay
loading the fields until they are needed and choose whether to store
them in registers or on the stack.

When running test_stress_04.sh, the following warning is triggered:
WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 135 at drivers/block/ublk_drv.c:1933 ublk_ch_release+0x423/0x4b0 [ublk_drv]
This happens when the daemon is abruptly killed:
- some references may still be held, because registering IO buffer
doesn't grab ublk char device reference
OR
- io->task_registered_buffers won't be cleared because io buffer is
released from non-daemon context
For zero-copy and auto buffer register modes, I/O reference crosses
syscalls, so IO reference may not be dropped naturally when ublk server is
killed abruptly. However, when releasing io_uring context, it is guaranteed
that the reference is dropped finally, see io_sqe_buffers_unregister() from
io_ring_ctx_free().
Fix this by adding ublk_drain_io_references() that:
- Waits for active I/O references dropped in async way by scheduling
work function, for avoiding ublk dev and io_uring file's release
dependency
- Reinitializes io->ref and io->task_registered_buffers to clean state
This ensures the reference count state is clean when ublk_queue_reinit()
is called, preventing the warning and potential use-after-free.

By default, /dev/sda is block special file from devtmpfs, getattr will
return file size as zero, causing loop failed for raw block device.
We can add bdev_statx() to return device size, however this may
introduce changes that are not acknowledged by user. Fix this problem by
reverting changes for block special file, file mapping host is set to
bdev inode while opening, and use i_size_read() directly to get device
size.

Use vfs_getattr_nosec() in lo_calculate_size() for getting the file
size, rather than just read the cached inode size via i_size_read().
This provides better results than cached inode data, particularly for
network filesystems where metadata may be stale.

Renamed get_size to lo_calculate_size and merged the logic from get_size
and get_loop_size into a single function. Update all callers to use
lo_calculate_size. This is done in preparation for improving the size

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.

Commit ab03a61c66 ("ublk: have a per-io daemon instead of a per-queue
daemon") allowed each ublk I/O to have an independent daemon task.
However, nr_privileged_daemon is only computed based on whether the last
I/O fetched in each ublk queue has an unprivileged daemon task.
Fix this by checking whether every fetched I/O's daemon is privileged.
Change nr_privileged_daemon from a count of queues to a boolean
indicating whether any I/Os have an unprivileged daemon.

ublk_ch_release currently quiesces the device's request_queue while
setting force_abort/fail_io. This avoids data races by preventing
concurrent reads from the I/O path, but is not strictly needed - at this
point, canceling is already set and guaranteed to be observed by any
concurrently executing I/Os, so they will be handled properly even if
the changes to force_abort/fail_io propagate to the I/O path later.
Remove the quiesce/unquiesce calls from ublk_ch_release. This makes the
writes to force_abort/fail_io concurrent with the reads in the I/O path,
so make the accesses atomic.
Before this change, the call to blk_mq_quiesce_queue was responsible for
most (90%) of the runtime of ublk_ch_release. With that call eliminated,
ublk_ch_release runs much faster. Here is a comparison of the total time
spent in calls to ublk_ch_release when a server handling 128 devices
exits, before and after this change:
before: 1.11s
after: 0.09s

If the network stack keeps a reference for too long, DRBD keeps
references on a higher number of pages as a consequence.
Fix all that by no longer relying on page reference counts dropping to
an expected value. Instead, DRBD gives up its reference and lets the
system handle everything else. While at it, remove the open-coded
custom page pool mechanism and use the page_pool included in the
kernel.

When a zoned loop device, or zloop device, is removed, KASAN enabled
kernel reports "BUG KASAN use-after-free" in blk_mq_free_tag_set(). The
BUG happens because zloop_ctl_remove() calls put_disk(), which invokes
zloop_free_disk(). The zloop_free_disk() frees the memory allocated for
the zlo pointer. However, after the memory is freed, zloop_ctl_remove()
calls blk_mq_free_tag_set(&zlo->tag_set), which accesses the freed zlo.
Hence the KASAN use-after-free.
zloop_ctl_remove()
put_disk(zlo->disk)
put_device()
kobject_put()
...
zloop_free_disk()
kvfree(zlo)
blk_mq_free_tag_set(&zlo->tag_set)
To avoid the BUG, move the call to blk_mq_free_tag_set(&zlo->tag_set)
from zloop_ctl_remove() into zloop_free_disk(). This ensures that
the tag_set is freed before the call to kvfree(zlo).

Pull block updates from Jens Axboe:
- MD pull request via Yu:
- call del_gendisk synchronously (Xiao)
- cleanup unused variable (John)
- cleanup workqueue flags (Ryo)
- fix faulty rdev can't be removed during resync (Qixing)
- NVMe pull request via Christoph:
- try PCIe function level reset on init failure (Keith Busch)
- log TLS handshake failures at error level (Maurizio Lombardi)
- pci-epf: do not complete commands twice if nvmet_req_init()
fails (Rick Wertenbroek)
- misc cleanups (Alok Tiwari)
- Removal of the pktcdvd driver
This has been more than a decade coming at this point, and some
recently revealed breakages that had it causing issues even for cases
where it isn't required made me re-pull the trigger on this one. It's
known broken and nobody has stepped up to maintain the code
- Series for ublk supporting batch commands, enabling the use of
multishot where appropriate
- Speed up ublk exit handling
- Fix for the two-stage elevator fixing which could leak data
- Convert NVMe to use the new IOVA based API
- Increase default max transfer size to something more reasonable
- Series fixing write operations on zoned DM devices
- Add tracepoints for zoned block device operations
- Prep series working towards improving blk-mq queue management in the
presence of isolated CPUs
- Don't allow updating of the block size of a loop device that is
currently under exclusively ownership/open
- Set chunk sectors from stacked device stripe size and use it for the
atomic write size limit
- Switch to folios in bcache read_super()
- Fix for CD-ROM MRW exit flush handling
- Various tweaks, fixes, and cleanups
