Subject: linux-next: manual merge of the refactor-heap tree with the block tree

Hi all,

Today's linux-next merge of the refactor-heap tree got conflicts in:

drivers/md/bcache/bset.c
drivers/md/bcache/bset.h
drivers/md/bcache/btree.c
drivers/md/bcache/writeback.c

between commit:

3a861560ccb3 ("bcache: fix variable length array abuse in btree_iter")

from the block tree and commit:

afa5721abaaa ("bcache: Remove heap-related macros and switch to generic min_heap")

from the refactor-heap tree.

Ok, these conflicts are too extensive, so I am dropping the refactor-heap
tree for today. I suggest you all get together and sort something out.

I fixed it up (see above) and can carry the fix as necessary. This
is now fixed as far as linux-next is concerned, but any non trivial
conflicts should be mentioned to your upstream maintainer when your tree
is submitted for merging. You may also want to consider cooperating
with the maintainer of the conflicting tree to minimise any particularly
complex conflicts.

Here are the conflicts:

Coli and Kuan, you guys will need to get this sorted out quick if we
want refactor-heap to make the merge window

Hi Coli and Kent,

If I understand correctly, the reported bug is because we attempted to
point (heap)->data to a dynamically allocated memory , but at that time
(heap)->data was not a regular pointer but a fixed size array with a
length of MAX_BSETS.

In my refactor heap patch series, I introduced a preallocated array and
decided in min_heap_init() whether the data pointer should point to an
incoming pointer or to the preallocated array. Therefore, I am
wondering if my patch might have unintentionally fixed this bug?

I am unsure how to reproduce the reported issue. Could you assist me in
verifying whether my assumption is correct?

Regards,
Kuan-Wei

This is a merge conflict, not a runtime. Can you rebase onto Coli's
tree? We'll have to retest.

Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding I caused. When I mentioned "bug" [1]
earlier, I was referring to the bug addressed in
3a861560ccb3 ("bcache: fix variable length array abuse in btree_iter"),
not a merge conflict.

Here are the results after the rebase:

The ubuntu kernels build with UBSAN now, and the bug reported is just a
UBSAN warning. The original implementation's iterator has a fixed size
sets array that is indexed out of bounds when the iterator is allocated
on the heap with more space -- the patch restructures it a bit to have a
single iterator type with a flexible array and then a larger "stack"
type which embeds the iterator along with the preallocated region.

I took a brief look at the refactor-heap branch but I'm not entirely
sure what's going on with the new min heaps: in the one place where the
larger iterators are used (in bch_btree_node_read_done) it doesn't look
like the heap is ever initialized (perhaps since the old iter_init
wasn't used here because of the special case it got missed in the
refactor?) With the new heaps it should be fairly easy to fix though;
just change the fill_iter mempool to be allocating only the minheap data
arrays and setup iter->heap.data properly with that instead.

Hope that helps,
Matthew Mirvish

Thank you, Matthew.
Not initializing the heap's data pointer was indeed my mistake.
Following your advice, I made the following modifications to the code
on the refactor-heap branch in my github repo. I hope this time it
works well.

Hi Kent,

Are you still planning to send the pull request in this merge window?
I've sent the v5 patch series [1] to resolve the conflicts some time ago.
Is there anything missing from my side?

Unfortunately it's going to have to wait until next merge window, all
