dcssblk_remove_store() holds the dcssblk_devices_sem semaphore while
calling device_unregister(), which in turn tries to acquire the kernfs
kn->dev_map rwsem for the device sysfs subtree. The same rwsem is also
acquired when using the per-device sysfs attributes in the device sub-tree,
and the attribute handlers then also acquire the dcssblk_devices_sem.
This can lead to a deadlock when removing a DCSS while concurrently
reading from / writing to one of its sysfs attributes. The following
lockdep warning hinted towards the issue (CPU0 = dcssblk_remove_store,
CPU1 = dcssblk_shared_store):

Reorder lcu and device lock to get rid of the error-prone trylock
mechanism.
The locking order is lcu lock -> device lock.
This protects against changes to the lcu device lists and enables us
to iterate over the devices, take the cdev lock and make changes to
the device structures.
The complicated part is the summary unit check handler that gets an
interrupt on one device of the lcu that leads to structural changes of
the whole lcu itself. This work needs to be done even if devices on
the lcu disappear. So a device independent worker is used.
The old approach tried to update some lcu structures and set up the
lcu worker in the interrupt context with the device lock held.
But this forced the lock order "cdev lock -> lcu lock" that made it
hard to have the lcu lock held and iterate over all devices and change
them.
The new approach is to schedule a device specific worker that gets
out of the interrupt context and rid of the device lock for summary
unit checks. This worker is able to take the lcu lock and schedule the
lcu worker that updates all devices. The time between interrupt and
worker execution is no problem because the devices in the lcu reject
all I/O in this time with an appropriate error. The dasd driver can
deal with this situation and re-drive the I/O later on.

Currently, dasd_format is calling the format logic of a DASD discipline
with PAV enabled. If that fails with an error code of -EAGAIN the value
of retries is decremented and the discipline function is called with PAV
turned off.
The loop is supposed to try this up to 255 times until success. However,
-EAGAIN can only occur once here and therefore the loop will never reach
the 255 retries.
So, replace the unnecessarily complicated loop logic and simply try again
without PAV enabled in case of an -EAGAIN error.

git commit 1ec2772e0c ("s390/diag: add a statistic for diagnose
calls") added function calls to gather diagnose statistics.
In case of the dasd diag driver the function call was added between a
register asm statement which initialized register r2 and the inline
assembly itself. The function call clobbers the contents of register
r2 and therefore the diag 0x250 call behaves in a more or less random
way.
Fix this by extracting the function call into a separate function like
we do everywhere else.

The correct lock order for LCU lock and cdev lock is to take the cdev
lock first and afterwards the LCU lock. This is caused by the fact
that LCU functions are called in an interrupt context with the cdev
lock implicitly hold by CIO.
To assure the right locking order but also be able to iterate over
devices in a LCU introduce a trylock block that can be called with
the device lock for one device hold and then takes the LCU lock and
try to lock all devices accounted to this LCU. Afterwards all devices

For the purpose of communicating the optional presence of a 'struct
page' for the pfn returned from ->direct_access(), introduce a type that
encapsulates a page-frame-number plus flags. These flags contain the
historical "page_link" encoding for a scatterlist entry, but can also
denote "device memory". Where "device memory" is a set of pfns that are
not part of the kernel's linear mapping by default, but are accessed via
the same memory controller as ram.
The motivation for this new type is large capacity persistent memory
that needs struct page entries in the 'memmap' to support 3rd party DMA
(i.e. O_DIRECT I/O with a persistent memory source/target). However,
we also need it in support of maintaining a list of mapped inodes which
need to be unmapped at driver teardown or freeze_bdev() time.

Path verification is either done via dasd_eckd_read_conf() which is
triggered during online processing and resume or via
do_path_verification_work() which is triggered after path events.
The dasd_eckd_read_conf() version added paths unconditionally and did
not check if the path mask was empty. This led to devices having the
disconnected stop flag set but a valid path mask. So they where not
working although they had paths validated successfully. After a resume
this state could even not be solved with additional paths added.
Fix by checking for an empty path mask in dasd_eckd_read_conf() and

A summary unit check occurs when the lcu updates the PAV configuration
e.g. base PAV assignment or PAV mode at all. This requires the reset
of the drivers internal pavgroups. Therefore the alias devices are
flushed and moved via a temporary list to the active_devices list
where they are not associated with a pavgroup. In conjunction with
updates to the base device the pavgroup may be removed since both
base_list and alias_list are empty. Unfortunately during alias flush
and move to the active_device list from alias_list the pavgroup
pointer is not deleted in the device private structure. This leads to
a list del_corruption if another lcu_update tries to move the device
in the non existent pavgroup.
Fix by removing the pavgroup pointer after the alias device was moved
to the active_devices list.

Pull core block updates from Jens Axboe:
"This first core part of the block IO changes contains:
- Cleanup of the bio IO error signaling from Christoph. We used to
rely on the uptodate bit and passing around of an error, now we
store the error in the bio itself.
- Improvement of the above from myself, by shrinking the bio size
down again to fit in two cachelines on x86-64.
- Revert of the max_hw_sectors cap removal from a revision again,
from Jeff Moyer. This caused performance regressions in various
tests. Reinstate the limit, bump it to a more reasonable size
instead.
- Make /sys/block/<dev>/queue/discard_max_bytes writeable, by me.
Most devices have huge trim limits, which can cause nasty latencies
when deleting files. Enable the admin to configure the size down.
We will look into having a more sane default instead of UINT_MAX
sectors.
- Improvement of the SGP gaps logic from Keith Busch.
- Enable the block core to handle arbitrarily sized bios, which
enables a nice simplification of bio_add_page() (which is an IO hot
path). From Kent.
- Improvements to the partition io stats accounting, making it
faster. From Ming Lei.
- Also from Ming Lei, a basic fixup for overflow of the sysfs pending
file in blk-mq, as well as a fix for a blk-mq timeout race
condition.
- Ming Lin has been carrying Kents above mentioned patches forward
for a while, and testing them. Ming also did a few fixes around
that.
- Sasha Levin found and fixed a use-after-free problem introduced by
the bio->bi_error changes from Christoph.
- Small blk cgroup cleanup from Viresh Kumar"

The way the block layer is currently written, it goes to great lengths
to avoid having to split bios; upper layer code (such as bio_add_page())
checks what the underlying device can handle and tries to always create
bios that don't need to be split.
But this approach becomes unwieldy and eventually breaks down with
stacked devices and devices with dynamic limits, and it adds a lot of
complexity. If the block layer could split bios as needed, we could
eliminate a lot of complexity elsewhere - particularly in stacked
drivers. Code that creates bios can then create whatever size bios are
convenient, and more importantly stacked drivers don't have to deal with
both their own bio size limitations and the limitations of the
(potentially multiple) devices underneath them. In the future this will
let us delete merge_bvec_fn and a bunch of other code.
We do this by adding calls to blk_queue_split() to the various
make_request functions that need it - a few can already handle arbitrary
size bios. Note that we add the call _after_ any call to
blk_queue_bounce(); this means that blk_queue_split() and
blk_recalc_rq_segments() don't need to be concerned with bouncing
affecting segment merging.
Some make_request_fn() callbacks were simple enough to audit and verify
they don't need blk_queue_split() calls. The skipped ones are:
* nfhd_make_request (arch/m68k/emu/nfblock.c)
* axon_ram_make_request (arch/powerpc/sysdev/axonram.c)
* simdisk_make_request (arch/xtensa/platforms/iss/simdisk.c)
* brd_make_request (ramdisk - drivers/block/brd.c)
* mtip_submit_request (drivers/block/mtip32xx/mtip32xx.c)
* loop_make_request
* null_queue_bio
* bcache's make_request fns
Some others are almost certainly safe to remove now, but will be left
for future patches.

This patch adds an enhanced detection for control unit initiated
reconfiguration request scope.
The first approach assumed the scope of the reconfiguration request
to be restricted to the path on which the message was received.
The enhanced approach determines the full scope of the reconfiguration
request by evaluating additional path and device selection information
contained in the reconfiguration message.

DASD path verification requires the usage of sleep_on_immediatly to
ensure that no other I/O request is blocking the recovery of
disconnected devices. But two concurrent path verification workers for
the same device may kill each others requests due to the usage of the
immediate sleep_on function. This may lead to unsuccessful path
verifications.
Prevent that two parallel path verification workers conflict with
each other by implementing a device flag signalling a already running
worker.

Currently we have two different ways to signal an I/O error on a BIO:
(1) by clearing the BIO_UPTODATE flag
(2) by returning a Linux errno value to the bi_end_io callback
The first one has the drawback of only communicating a single possible
error (-EIO), and the second one has the drawback of not beeing persistent
when bios are queued up, and are not passed along from child to parent
bio in the ever more popular chaining scenario. Having both mechanisms
available has the additional drawback of utterly confusing driver authors
and introducing bugs where various I/O submitters only deal with one of
them, and the others have to add boilerplate code to deal with both kinds
of error returns.
So add a new bi_error field to store an errno value directly in struct
bio and remove the existing mechanisms to clean all this up.

The dasd device driver selects which (alias or base) device is used
for a given requests when the request is build. If the chosen alias
device is set offline before the request gets queued to the device
queue the starting function may use device structures that are
already freed. This might lead to a hanging offline process or a
kernel panic.
Add a check to the starting function that returns the request to the
upper layer if the device is already in offline processing.
In addition to that prevent that an alias device that's already in
offline processing gets chosen as start device.
