From 512875bd9661368da6f993205a61213b79ba1df0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jun'ichi Nomura Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2007 14:15:25 +0000 Subject: dm: table detect io beyond device This patch fixes a panic on shrinking a DM device if there is outstanding I/O to the part of the device that is being removed. (Normally this doesn't happen - a filesystem would be resized first, for example.) The bug is that __clone_and_map() assumes dm_table_find_target() always returns a valid pointer. It may fail if a bio arrives from the block layer but its target sector is no longer included in the DM btree. This patch appends an empty entry to table->targets[] which will be returned by a lookup beyond the end of the device. After calling dm_table_find_target(), __clone_and_map() and target_message() check for this condition using dm_target_is_valid().
