Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] md/raid10: bound reused r10bio devs[] walks by used_nr_devs
Date: Fri, 15 May 2026 17:27:07 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260515092707.3436464-3-chencheng@fnnas.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260515092707.3436464-1-chencheng@fnnas.com>

From: Chen Cheng <chencheng@fnnas.com>

After reshape changes raid_disks, an in-flight r10bio from the old geometry
can still be completed or freed later. In that case, using the current
geometry to walk r10_bio->devs[] is unsafe. A failure was reproduced with a
simple write workload while reshaping a raid10 array from 4 disks to 5 disks.
e.g.:

  mdadm -C /dev/md777 -l10 -n4 /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd
  mkfs.ext4 /dev/md777
  mount /dev/md777 /mnt/test
  fsstress -d /mnt/test -n 24000 -p 8 -l 24 &
  mdadm /dev/md777 --add /dev/sde
  mdadm --grow /dev/md777 --raid-devices=5 \
    --backup-file=/tmp/md-reshape-backup

the sequence above can trigger:

  BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in free_r10bio+0x1c4/0x260 [raid10]
  Read of size 8 at addr ffff00008c2dfac8 by task ksoftirqd/0/15
  free_r10bio
  raid_end_bio_io
  one_write_done
  raid10_end_write_request

The buggy object was 200 bytes long, which matches an r10bio with space for
only four devs[] entries. However, put_all_bios() and find_bio_disk() walk
r10_bio->devs[] using the current conf->geo.raid_disks value. Once reshape
switches conf->geo.raid_disks from 4 to 5, an old 4-slot r10bio can be
completed or freed as if it had 5 slots, and the walk overruns devs[4]. The
same stale-width mismatch can also surface during a 5-disk to 4-disk reshape.

Track the number of valid devs[] entries in each reused r10bio with
used_nr_devs. Initialize it whenever an r10bio is prepared for regular I/O,
discard, or resync/recovery/reshape work, and use it to bound devs[] walks
in put_all_bios() and find_bio_disk().
