[PATCH 5.1 326/371] block: Allow mapping of vmalloc-ed buffers

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Jul 24 2019 - 16:10:51 EST


From: Damien Le Moal <damien.lemoal@xxxxxxx>

commit b4c5875d36178e8df409bdce232f270cac89fafe upstream.

To allow the SCSI subsystem scsi_execute_req() function to issue
requests using large buffers that are better allocated with vmalloc()
rather than kmalloc(), modify bio_map_kern() to allow passing a buffer
allocated with vmalloc().

To do so, detect vmalloc-ed buffers using is_vmalloc_addr(). For
vmalloc-ed buffers, flush the buffer using flush_kernel_vmap_range(),
use vmalloc_to_page() instead of virt_to_page() to obtain the pages of
the buffer, and invalidate the buffer addresses with
invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() on completion of read BIOs. This last
point is executed using the function bio_invalidate_vmalloc_pages()
which is defined only if the architecture defines
ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_KERNEL_DCACHE_PAGE, that is, if the architecture
actually needs the invalidation done.

Fixes: 515ce6061312 ("scsi: sd_zbc: Fix sd_zbc_report_zones() buffer allocation")
Fixes: e76239a3748c ("block: add a report_zones method")
