Subject: [PATCH v8 2/4] md: init bioset in mddev_init
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2025 14:28:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251030062807.1515356-3-linan666@huaweicloud.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251030062807.1515356-1-linan666@huaweicloud.com>

From: Li Nan <linan122@huawei.com>

IO operations may be needed before md_run(), such as updating metadata
after writing sysfs. Without bioset, this triggers a NULL pointer
dereference as below:

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020
 Call Trace:
  md_update_sb+0x658/0xe00
  new_level_store+0xc5/0x120
  md_attr_store+0xc9/0x1e0
  sysfs_kf_write+0x6f/0xa0
  kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x141/0x2a0
  vfs_write+0x1fc/0x5a0
  ksys_write+0x79/0x180
  __x64_sys_write+0x1d/0x30
  x64_sys_call+0x2818/0x2880
  do_syscall_64+0xa9/0x580
  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x4b/0x53

Reproducer
```
  mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -n2 /dev/sd[cd]
  echo inactive > /sys/block/md0/md/array_state
  echo 10 > /sys/block/md0/md/new_level
```

mddev_init() can only be called once per mddev, no need to test if bioset
has been initialized anymore.

Fixes: d981ed841930 ("md: Add new_level sysfs interface")
