2025-06-25lib/group_cpus: fix NULL pointer dereference from group_cpus_evenly()Yu Kuai
While testing null_blk with configfs, echo 0 > poll_queues will trigger following panic: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI CPU: 27 UID: 0 PID: 920 Comm: bash Not tainted 6.15.0-02023-gadbdb95c8696-dirty #1238 PREEMPT(undef) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.1-2.fc37 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:__bitmap_or+0x48/0x70 Call Trace: <TASK> __group_cpus_evenly+0x822/0x8c0 group_cpus_evenly+0x2d9/0x490 blk_mq_map_queues+0x1e/0x110 null_map_queues+0xc9/0x170 [null_blk] blk_mq_update_queue_map+0xdb/0x160 blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues+0x22b/0x560 nullb_update_nr_hw_queues+0x71/0xf0 [null_blk] nullb_device_poll_queues_store+0xa4/0x130 [null_blk] configfs_write_iter+0x109/0x1d0 vfs_write+0x26e/0x6f0 ksys_write+0x79/0x180 __x64_sys_write+0x1d/0x30 x64_sys_call+0x45c4/0x45f0 do_syscall_64+0xa5/0x240 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e Root cause is that numgrps is set to 0, and ZERO_SIZE_PTR is returned from kcalloc(), and later ZERO_SIZE_PTR will be deferenced. Fix the problem by checking numgrps first in group_cpus_evenly(), and return NULL directly if numgrps is zero.

2023-12-06lib/group_cpus.c: avoid acquiring cpu hotplug lock in group_cpus_evenlyMing Lei
group_cpus_evenly() could be part of storage driver's error handler, such as nvme driver, when may happen during CPU hotplug, in which storage queue has to drain its pending IOs because all CPUs associated with the queue are offline and the queue is becoming inactive. And handling IO needs error handler to provide forward progress. Then deadlock is caused: 1) inside CPU hotplug handler, CPU hotplug lock is held, and blk-mq's handler is waiting for inflight IO 2) error handler is waiting for CPU hotplug lock 3) inflight IO can't be completed in blk-mq's CPU hotplug handler because error handling can't provide forward progress. Solve the deadlock by not holding CPU hotplug lock in group_cpus_evenly(), in which two stage spreads are taken: 1) the 1st stage is over all present CPUs; 2) the end stage is over all other CPUs. Turns out the two stage spread just needs consistent 'cpu_present_mask', and remove the CPU hotplug lock by storing it into one local cache. This way doesn't change correctness, because all CPUs are still covered.

Also annotate the preprocessor branches for better readability.
