nvmet_root_discovery_nqn_store treats the subsysnqn string like a fixed
size buffer, even though it is dynamically allocated to the size of the
string.

Create a new string with kstrndup instead of using the old buffer.

<title>nvme-pci: 512 byte aligned dma pool segment quirk</title>

[ Upstream commit ebefac5647968679f6ef5803e5d35a71997d20fa ]

We initially introduced a quick fix limiting the queue depth to 1 as
experimentation showed that it fixed data corruption on 64GB steamdecks.

Further experimentation revealed corruption only happens when the last
PRP data element aligns to the end of the page boundary. The device
appears to treat this as a PRP chain to a new list instead of the data
element that it actually is. This implementation is in violation of the
spec. Encountering this errata with the Linux driver requires the host
request a 128k transfer and coincidently be handed the last small pool
dma buffer within a page.

The QD1 quirk effectly works around this because the last data PRP
always was at a 248 byte offset from the page start, so it never
appeared at the end of the page, but comes at the expense of throttling
IO and wasting the remainder of the PRP page beyond 256 bytes. Also to
note, the MDTS on these devices is small enough that the "large" prp
pool can hold enough PRP elements to never reach the end, so that pool
is not a problem either.

Introduce a new quirk to ensure the small pool is always aligned such
that the last PRP element can't appear a the end of the page. This comes
at the expense of wasting 256 bytes per small pool page allocated.

[ Upstream commit 84488282166de6b6760ada8030e87aaa08bce3aa ]

This reverts commit d06923670b5a5f609603d4a9fee4dec02d38de9c.

It was realized that the fix implemented to contain the race condition
among the keep alive task and the fabric shutdown code path in the commit
d06923670b5ia ("nvme: make keep-alive synchronous operation") is not
optimal. The reason being keep-alive runs under the workqueue and making
it synchronous would waste a workqueue context.
Furthermore, we later found that the above race condition is a regression
caused due to the changes implemented in commit a54a93d0e359 ("nvme: move
stopping keep-alive into nvme_uninit_ctrl()"). So we decided to revert the
commit d06923670b5a ("nvme: make keep-alive synchronous operation") and
then fix the regression.

Kernel will hang on destroy admin_q while we create ctrl failed, such

This due to we have quiesced admi_q before cancel requests, but forgot

pending requests, and hang on blk_mq_freeze_queue_wait() forever. Here
try to reuse nvme_rdma_teardown_admin_queue() to fix this issue and
simplify the code.

[ Upstream commit 88c23a32b851e36adc4ab36f796d9b711f47e2bb ]

The NVMe specification states that MAXCMD is mandatory
for NVMe-over-Fabrics implementations. However, some NVMe/TCP
and NVMe/FC arrays from major vendors have buggy firmware
that reports MAXCMD as zero in the Identify Controller data structure.

Currently, the implementation closes the connection in such cases,
completely preventing the host from connecting to the target.

Fix the issue by printing a clear error message about the firmware bug
and allowing the connection to proceed. It assumes that the
target supports a MAXCMD value of SQSIZE + 1. If any issues arise,
the user can manually adjust SQSIZE to mitigate them.

<title>nvme-fabrics: fix kernel crash while shutting down controller</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5416b76a8156c1b8491f78f8a728f422104bb919</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit e9869c85c81168a1275f909d5972a3fc435304be ]

The nvme keep-alive operation, which executes at a periodic interval,
could potentially sneak in while shutting down a fabric controller.
This may lead to a race between the fabric controller admin queue
destroy code path (invoked while shutting down controller) and hw/hctx
queue dispatcher called from the nvme keep-alive async request queuing
operation. This race could lead to the kernel crash shown below:

Call Trace:
    autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0xbc (unreliable)
    __blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests+0x114/0x24c
    blk_mq_sched_dispatch_requests+0x44/0x84
    blk_mq_run_hw_queue+0x140/0x220
    nvme_keep_alive_work+0xc8/0x19c [nvme_core]
    process_one_work+0x200/0x4e0
    worker_thread+0x340/0x504
    kthread+0x138/0x140
    start_kernel_thread+0x14/0x18

While shutting down fabric controller, if nvme keep-alive request sneaks
in then it would be flushed off. The nvme_keep_alive_end_io function is
then invoked to handle the end of the keep-alive operation which
decrements the admin-&gt;q_usage_counter and assuming this is the last/only
request in the admin queue then the admin-&gt;q_usage_counter becomes zero.
If that happens then blk-mq destroy queue operation (blk_mq_destroy_
queue()) which could be potentially running simultaneously on another
cpu (as this is the controller shutdown code path) would forward
progress and deletes the admin queue. So, now from this point onward
we are not supposed to access the admin queue resources. However the
issue here's that the nvme keep-alive thread running hw/hctx queue
dispatch operation hasn't yet finished its work and so it could still
potentially access the admin queue resource while the admin queue had
been already deleted and that causes the above crash.

The above kernel crash is regression caused due to changes implemented
in commit a54a93d0e359 ("nvme: move stopping keep-alive into
nvme_uninit_ctrl()"). Ideally we should stop keep-alive before destroyin
g the admin queue and freeing the admin tagset so that it wouldn't sneak
in during the shutdown operation. However we removed the keep alive stop
operation from the beginning of the controller shutdown code path in commit
a54a93d0e359 ("nvme: move stopping keep-alive into nvme_uninit_ctrl()")
and added it under nvme_uninit_ctrl() which executes very late in the
shutdown code path after the admin queue is destroyed and its tagset is
removed. So this change created the possibility of keep-alive sneaking in
and interfering with the shutdown operation and causing observed kernel
crash.

To fix the observed crash, we decided to move nvme_stop_keep_alive() from
nvme_uninit_ctrl() to nvme_remove_admin_tag_set(). This change would ensure
that we don't forward progress and delete the admin queue until the keep-
alive operation is finished (if it's in-flight) or cancelled and that would
help contain the race condition explained above and hence avoid the crash.

Moving nvme_stop_keep_alive() to nvme_remove_admin_tag_set() instead of
adding nvme_stop_keep_alive() to the beginning of the controller shutdown
code path in nvme_stop_ctrl(), as was the case earlier before commit
a54a93d0e359 ("nvme: move stopping keep-alive into nvme_uninit_ctrl()"),
would help save one callsite of nvme_stop_keep_alive().

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 5dd18f09ce7399df6fffe80d1598add46c395ae9 ]

The code currently uses list_for_each_entry_rcu() while holding an SRCU
lock, triggering false positive warnings with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y
enabled:

	drivers/nvme/host/multipath.c:168 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
	drivers/nvme/host/multipath.c:227 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!
	drivers/nvme/host/multipath.c:260 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

While the list is properly protected by SRCU lock, the code uses the
wrong list traversal primitive. Replace list_for_each_entry_rcu() with
list_for_each_entry_srcu() to correctly indicate SRCU-based protection
and eliminate the false warning.

blk_mq_flush_plug_list submits requests in the reverse order that they
were submitted, which leads to a rather suboptimal I/O pattern especially
in rotational devices.  Fix this by rewriting nvme_queue_rqs so that it
always pops the requests from the passed in request list, and then adds
them to the head of a local submit list.  This actually simplifies the
code a bit as it removes the complicated list splicing, at the cost of
extra updates of the rq_next pointer.  As that should be cache hot
anyway it should be an easy price to pay.
