dm mpath: fix infinite recursion in ioctl when no paths and !queue_if_no_path
In multipath_prepare_ioctl(), - pgpath is a path selected from available paths - m->queue_io is true if we cannot send a request immediately to paths, either because: * there is no available path * the path group needs activation (pg_init) - pg_init is not started - pg_init is still running - m->queue_if_no_path is true if the device is configured to queue I/O if there are no available paths If !pgpath && !m->queue_if_no_path, the handler should return -EIO. However in the course of refactoring the condition check has broken and returns success in that case. Since bdev points to the dm device itself, dm_blk_ioctl() calls __blk_dev_driver_ioctl() for itself and recurses until crash. You could reproduce the problem like this: # dmsetup create mp --table '0 1024 multipath 0 0 0 0' # sg_inq /dev/mapper/mp <crash> [ 172.648615] BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffffc81b10268 [ 172.662843] PGD 19dd067 PUD 0 [ 172.666269] Thread overran stack, or stack corrupted [ 172.671808] Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP ... Fix the condition check with some clarifications.
