4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 529e71e16403830ae0d737a66c55c5f360f3576b upstream. The zram hot removal code calls idr_remove() even when zram_remove() returns an error (typically -EBUSY). This results in a leftover at the device release, eventually leading to a crash when the module is reloaded. As described in the bug report below, the following procedure would cause an Oops with zram: - provision three zram devices via modprobe zram num_devices=3 - configure a size for each device + echo "1G" > /sys/block/$zram_name/disksize - mkfs and mount zram0 only - attempt to hot remove all three devices + echo 2 > /sys/class/zram-control/hot_remove + echo 1 > /sys/class/zram-control/hot_remove + echo 0 > /sys/class/zram-control/hot_remove - zram0 removal fails with EBUSY, as expected - unmount zram0 - try zram0 hot remove again + echo 0 > /sys/class/zram-control/hot_remove - fails with ENODEV (unexpected) - unload zram kernel module + completes successfully - zram0 device node still exists - attempt to mount /dev/zram0 + mount command is killed + following BUG is encountered BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa0002ba0 IP: get_disk+0x16/0x50 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 0 PID: 252 Comm: mount Not tainted 4.9.0-rc6 #176 Call Trace: exact_lock+0xc/0x20 kobj_lookup+0xdc/0x160 get_gendisk+0x2f/0x110 __blkdev_get+0x10c/0x3c0 blkdev_get+0x19d/0x2e0 blkdev_open+0x56/0x70 do_dentry_open.isra.19+0x1ff/0x310 vfs_open+0x43/0x60 path_openat+0x2c9/0xf30 do_filp_open+0x79/0xd0 do_sys_open+0x114/0x1e0 SyS_open+0x19/0x20 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x13/0x94 This patch adds the proper error check in hot_remove_store() not to call idr_remove() unconditionally.
