This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled dm snapshot: disallow the COW and origin devices from being identical to the 4.5-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: dm-snapshot-disallow-the-cow-and-origin-devices-from-being-identical.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.5 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 4df2bf466a9c9c92f40d27c4aa9120f4e8227bfc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: DingXiang <dingxiang@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 2 Feb 2016 12:29:18 +0800 Subject: dm snapshot: disallow the COW and origin devices from being identical From: DingXiang <dingxiang@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 4df2bf466a9c9c92f40d27c4aa9120f4e8227bfc upstream. Otherwise loading a "snapshot" table using the same device for the origin and COW devices, e.g.: echo "0 20971520 snapshot 253:3 253:3 P 8" | dmsetup create snap will trigger: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000098 [ 1958.979934] IP: [<ffffffffa040efba>] dm_exception_store_set_chunk_size+0x7a/0x110 [dm_snapshot] [ 1958.989655] PGD 0 [ 1958.991903] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP ...
