6b7108712a nvdimm: preserve flush callback -ENOMEM
nvdimm_flush() maps provider flush failures to -EIO. Keep that default
because provider callbacks can report host-side or backend failures that
should remain generic I/O errors to the guest.

Guest-side allocation failures should not be reported as I/O errors. In the
virtio-pmem path, the flush request allocation can fail with -ENOMEM before
any request is submitted to the host. Mapping that to -EIO makes resource
pressure look like media failure.

Preserve -ENOMEM from provider callbacks and continue to map other non-zero
provider failures to -EIO. The generic flush path still returns 0, and
pmem_submit_bio() already converts errno values to block status for bio
completion.

dc3f1eef9a virtio_pci: fix wrong queue index for admin vq in intx path
In vp_find_vqs_intx(), the admin vq was set up using the local
queue_idx counter instead of avq->vq_index (the actual queue index
obtained from the device). This differs from vp_find_vqs_msix() which
correctly uses avq->vq_index. Using the wrong index causes the admin
virtqueue to be mapped to an incorrect hardware queue.

Fix it by using avq->vq_index consistent with the msix path.

ddf8b4388a virtio_mem: fix hardcoded 'vm' variable in bbm iteration macros
virtio_mem_bbm_for_each_bb() and virtio_mem_bbm_for_each_bb_rev()
accept a '_vm' parameter to allow callers to pass any variable name
referring to the virtio_mem instance. However, the 'for' loop
initializer and part of the loop condition use the bare name 'vm'
instead of the macro parameter '_vm'.

Fix by replacing all bare 'vm->' references inside the macros with
the '_vm' parameter, and wrap in parentheses following kernel macro
conventions.

7b411448c6 vdpa_sim: hold iommu_lock across dma_unmap passthrough transition
vdpasim_dma_map() updates the IOTLB and the passthrough (iommu_pt)
state under iommu_lock.  vdpasim_dma_unmap() clears iommu_pt and
resets the IOTLB before taking iommu_lock, then deletes the mapping
while holding the lock.

A concurrent dma_map(), dma_unmap(), or reset path that also touches
the same address space can therefore observe or modify the IOTLB and
iommu_pt state without consistent locking.

Perform the passthrough transition and range deletion under the same
iommu_lock scope, matching dma_map().

135f0abe31 vdpa_sim: clear pending_kick on device reset
vdpasim_kick_vq() sets pending_kick when a virtqueue is kicked while
the device is suspended (!running but DRIVER_OK).  vdpasim_resume()
later replays kicks for all virtqueues when pending_kick is set.

vdpasim_do_reset() clears running and status but leaves pending_kick
unchanged.  If a kick is deferred during suspend and the device is
reset before resume, a later resume can spuriously kick every
virtqueue even though no new work was queued after reset.

Clear pending_kick in vdpasim_do_reset() together with the other
device state that must not survive a reset.

d62fb5cc8a virtio_balloon: warn on failed buffer add in stats_handle_request()
Like tell_host(), stats_handle_request() ignores the return value of
virtqueue_add_outbuf() and kicks the queue regardless. The same "we

does not hold once the virtqueue has been broken (e.g. on device
shutdown), where the add fails with -EIO. Unlike tell_host() it does
not wait_event() afterwards so it cannot hang, but it still kicks a
queue with nothing queued.

7e17eef046 virtio_balloon: quiesce balloon work before device shutdown
Commit 8bd2fa086a ("virtio: break and reset virtio devices on
device_shutdown()") added a generic virtio bus .shutdown handler that
breaks and resets every virtio device during device_shutdown(), i.e. on
reboot and kexec.

virtio_balloon provides no .shutdown of its own, so that generic path
runs while the balloon's asynchronous work is still armed. Once the
device has been broken, virtqueue_add_inbuf() in
virtballoon_free_page_report() returns -EIO and trips its
WARN_ON_ONCE(). On a kernel booted with panic_on_warn that turns an
ordinary reboot, for example a kexec based upgrade, into a fatal panic
in the middle of device_shutdown(), so the machine never reaches the
new kernel.

Relaxing that single WARN_ON_ONCE() would only hide the symptom: the
inflate/deflate and OOM paths do not warn, they call
wait_event(vb->acked, ...) and would instead block forever on a broken
queue that can no longer complete. The device has to be quiesced, not
just kept quiet.

Add a .shutdown handler that quiesces the balloon via the shared
virtballoon_quiesce() helper while the device is still alive, and only
then breaks and resets it via virtio_device_shutdown(). Unlike
virtballoon_remove() the balloon workqueue is not destroyed, as shutdown
does not free the device and cancel_work_sync() together with stop_update
already prevent any further work from being queued.

0d8aebe089 virtio: add virtio_device_shutdown() helper
The generic virtio bus .shutdown handler, virtio_dev_shutdown(), breaks
and resets a device once it has established that the driver has no
.shutdown of its own. A driver that does implement .shutdown, to quiesce
its own activity first, still needs the same break and reset afterwards
and would otherwise have to open code it.

Factor the break + synchronize_cbs + reset sequence out of
virtio_dev_shutdown() into an exported virtio_device_shutdown() helper so
such drivers can reuse it instead of duplicating the core logic.

No functional change.

f77a956f6a crypto: virtio - bound the akcipher result length
virtio_crypto_dataq_akcipher_callback() sets the result length from the
device-reported response length without bounding it to the destination
buffer, which was allocated for the original request length.
sg_copy_from_buffer() then reads that many bytes from the destination
buffer; a backend reporting a larger length over-reads adjacent kernel
heap into the caller's scatterlist (an out-of-bounds read).

Clamp the reported length to the originally requested destination length.
A conforming device reports no more than that, so valid results are
unaffected.

5ab3b28c5b vsock/virtio: restore msg_iter on transmission failure
When transmission fails in virtio_transport_send_pkt_info, the msg_iter
might have been partially advanced. If we don't restore it, the next
attempt to send data will use an incorrect iterator state, leading to
desync and warnings like "send_pkt() returns 0, but X expected".

Specifically, this can happen in the following scenario, triggered by
the syzkaller repro:

1. A write-only VMA (PROT_WRITE only) is partially populated by a
   prior TUN write that failed with -EIO but still faulted in some
   pages).
2. A vsock sendmmsg call with MSG_ZEROCOPY requests transmission of a
   buffer from this VMA.
3. The first packet (64KB) is sent successfully because the pages are
   populated.
4. The second packet allocation fails because GUP fast pins the first page
   but GUP slow fails on the next unpopulated page due to PROT_WRITE-only
   permissions.
5. The iterator is advanced by the partially successful GUP (68KB total
   advanced: 64KB from first packet + 4KB from second), but the send loop
   breaks and only reports 64KB sent. This creates a 4KB desync.
6. The next retry starts with a non-zero iov_offset, disabling zerocopy
   and falling back to copy mode.
7. In copy mode, the transmission succeeds for the next packets but
   exhausts the iterator early because of the desync.
8. The final retry sees an empty iterator but zerocopy is re-enabled
   (offset resets). It attempts to send the remaining bytes with zerocopy
   but pins 0 pages, creating an empty packet.
9. The transport sends the empty packet, triggering the warning because
   the returned bytes (header only) do not match the expected payload size.
10. The loop continues to spin, allocating ubuf_info each time, eventually
    exhausting sysctl_optmem_max and returning -ENOMEM to userspace.

Restore msg_iter to its original state before the packet allocation
and transmission attempt if they fail.

bd670e5dfd vdpa_sim: fix cleanup after worker creation failure
vdpasim_create() leaves vdpasim->worker as an ERR_PTR when
kthread_run_worker() fails. The error path then drops the device
reference, which releases the partially initialized simulator.

vdpasim_free() unconditionally passes the worker pointer to
kthread_destroy_worker(), so the ERR_PTR is dereferenced and can trigger
a general protection fault.

Store the worker error, clear the pointer, and only clean up the worker
when it was successfully initialized. Also make the release path tolerate
partially initialized objects by guarding virtqueue and IOTLB cleanup,
since the same release path can be reached from other initialization
failures.

I found this bug myself, though the patch was written with AI assistance.

281eb4732a virtio_balloon: disable indirect descriptors
The page reporting callback submits an sg list to the reporting
virtqueue.  With VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC negotiated and
total_sg > 1 (which it typically is), virtqueue_add reports it to the
host by allocating an indirect descriptor via kmalloc(GFP_KERNEL).

This is not pretty: the reporting worker isolates potentially hundreds
of MB of free pages from the buddy allocator (reported pages are at
least pageblock_order, and the sg can contain up to
PAGE_REPORTING_CAPACITY entries of varying orders).  As the result,
very theoretically, the kmalloc might trigger OOM when we have in fact a
ton of free memory.

Clear VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC, to avoid using indirect descriptors.

fa8833c085 virtio-mmio: add support for transport version 3
Virtio MMIO transport version 3 allows device reset to complete
asynchronously. Unlike version 2, where writing zero to Status must
complete the reset before the write returns, version 3 requires the
driver to poll Status until it reads back zero before considering reset
complete.

Update virtio-mmio accordingly: accept transport version 3 and, during
reset, wait for Status to become zero. Keep the polling loop unbounded,
consistent with virtio-pci, since the reset callback does not return an
error code.

Keep base_ni->mrec_lock from the resident read iomap lookup through
iomap_end(). This protects both the attribute walk and the subsequent copy
from iomap->inline_data, which points into the MFT record. The non-resident
path is left alone: ntfs_lookup() already holds the directory inode's
mrec_lock when it reads an index folio through read_mapping_folio(), and
taking the lock in the shared wrapper deadlocks there with recursive locking
on mrec_lock. The comment above the read_mapping_folio() call in
fs/ntfs/dir.c notes the same hazard.

The seek path uses the same lookup helper but does not dereference
iomap->inline_data. Release the lock before returning from that path,
whereas the regular read path records base_ni in iomap->private and releases
the lock from its iomap_end() callback.

Tested with a reproducer that faults in a 16-byte resident file while
another thread runs link()/unlink() on it. Before: 40 KCSAN reports in
about one second. After: no reports in 180 seconds over 206,090 read
iterations and 423,540 link/unlink cycles. A PROVE_LOCKING build shows no
lockdep splat with the same reproducer running for 60 seconds.

A malformed NTFS image with a crafted mapping pairs array could cause

a83e82b0ec ntfs: validate non-resident attribute offsets
ntfs_attr_update_meta() shifts the attribute name when converting between
non-sparse and sparse attributes. Converting to sparse also adds the
compressed_size field before the name and mapping pairs, requiring eight
additional bytes in the attribute record.

However, the validator does not check that name_offset is within safe
boundaries for these operations or that the additional space is available.
A malicious MFT record could set name_offset such that:

1. The name is positioned at the very end of a non-sparse attribute.
   Converting to sparse would shift the name forward by 8 bytes,
   writing beyond the attribute boundary.

2. The name overlaps with the mapping pairs, causing corruption during
   conversion.

Add validation to ensure:
- For named attributes, name_offset is within valid bounds
- Name does not extend beyond the attribute or overlap with mapping pairs
- For non-sparse, non-compressed attributes, eight bytes are available
  after mapping_pairs_offset for the compressed_size field

The space check also covers unnamed attributes, for which name_offset = 0
is valid and no name range needs to be checked.

19cac7902a ntfs: bound the free-cluster bitmap scan to the volume
vol->lcn_empty_bits_per_page is sized from vol->nr_clusters at mount, but
ntfs_cluster_alloc() bounds its scan of that array by the size of $Bitmap.
Those are independent on-disk quantities and the mount-time check only
rejects a $Bitmap that is too small, so an image whose $Bitmap covers more
clusters than the volume has lets the scan index past the array.  A run
whose LCN lies in that gap takes the allocator straight there, since the
caller passes the file's own last LCN as its locality hint.  KASAN reports
a slab out-of-bounds read when a file on such a volume is extended.

Clamp the scan to what that array covers, mirroring the max_index
calculation the mount-time scan already uses, and reject a decoded LCN
at or beyond nr_clusters in the mapping pairs decoder.  Conforming
volumes are unaffected.

dc09bf79b7 ntfs: Fix index_root heap OOB write in ntfs_ir_to_ib()
ntfs_ir_to_ib copies all entries from index_root into a freshly allocated
index_block_size-byte buffer without verifying that the entries fit in the
available space. The entries in index_root may be larger than the usable
entry space in the index block.

This can cause OOB writes past the end of the allocation.

The validator ntfs_index_root_inconsistent() checks that entries are
self-consistent within the IR value, but never cross-checks them against
index_block_size. There is no bounds check in ntfs_ir_to_ib() before the
memcpy.

Fixing this at the sink in ntfs_ir_to_ib() since
ntfs_index_root_inconsistent() validates the logical consistency of
index_root as a structure and a root with large entries is a structurally
valid root. The bug is a size conflict of ntfs_ir_to_ib().
Also, the validator is called once per inode load in
ntfs_read_locked_inode() while ntfs_ir_to_ib() is only called during a
reparent, a check there adds no overhead to the common path.
Moreover, even a future call path that bypasses the validator would still
be protected.

With NULL as first parameter of ntfs_error(), the volume error flag is
never set by this call, so the device name will be absent from the error
message. In any case, that the caller, ntfs_ir_reparent(), prints an error
message that includes the device name on NULL returns.
I think this is the best solution available without adding
'struct super_block *sb' as a parameter to ntfs_ir_to_ib().

This heap out-of-bounds write is triggered by a crafted filesystem image,
which is not in the kernel threat model, anyway, fixing memory errors would
be nice to keep  things secure.

0ab6dc1ac4 ntfs: move attribute payload before shrinking its record
ntfs_new_attr_flags() resizes the non-resident attribute record before
moving its name and mapping pairs to their shorter-header offsets when
compression or sparse state is cleared.

Shrinking the record first moves the following attribute over the tail of
the old record. The subsequent memmove() therefore copies bytes from that
following attribute instead of the old mapping pairs. Re-enabling
compression on an empty file persists those bytes as a malformed mapping
pairs array, which ntfsck reports as a missing or invalid run length.

Move the payload before shrinking the record, while retaining the existing
resize-before-move ordering when growing it.

fbd74e665e ntfs: file extension before write submission
Prepare non-resident file allocation and initialized-size extension in
->write_iter() before entering the buffered or direct iomap write paths.

Previously, the iomap write callback extended initialized_size. When a
direct write started beyond initialized_size,
ntfs_extend_initialized_size() used iomap_zero_range() to zero the gap
through the page cache. This created dirty folios after iomap DIO had
invalidated its target cache range. The bsync path then had to
synchronously write back the entire zeroed gap to prevent the post-DIO
invalidation from encountering a dirty boundary folio.

Move allocation and initialized-size preparation ahead of iomap submission.
For DIO, kiocb_invalidate_pages() now sees any dirty boundary folio created
by iomap_zero_range(), writes it back when necessary, and invalidates it
before the direct I/O is issued. This removes the explicit synchronous
writeback of the zeroed gap while preserving the required boundary-folio
ordering.

Keep compressed writes out of the early initialized-size extension so their
existing write path can zero uninitialized data before compression. Move
compressed-file allocation expansion to write_iter as well, eliminating the
now-redundant expansion from ntfs_compress_write().
