lib/scatterlist: Fix chaining support in sgl_alloc_order()
This patch avoids that workloads with large block sizes (megabytes) can trigger the following call stack with the ib_srpt driver (that driver is the only driver that chains scatterlists allocated by sgl_alloc_order()): BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/0:1H pfn:2423a78 page:fffffb03d08e9e00 count:-3 mapcount:0 mapping: (null) index:0x0 flags: 0x57ffffc0000000() raw: 0057ffffc0000000 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 fffffffdffffffff raw: dead000000000100 dead000000000200 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 page dumped because: nonzero _count CPU: 0 PID: 733 Comm: kworker/0:1H Tainted: G I 4.15.0-rc7.bart+ #1 Hardware name: HP ProLiant DL380 G7, BIOS P67 08/16/2015 Workqueue: ib-comp-wq ib_cq_poll_work [ib_core] Call Trace: dump_stack+0x5c/0x83 bad_page+0xf5/0x10f get_page_from_freelist+0xa46/0x11b0 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x103/0x290 sgl_alloc_order+0x101/0x180 target_alloc_sgl+0x2c/0x40 [target_core_mod] srpt_alloc_rw_ctxs+0x173/0x2d0 [ib_srpt] srpt_handle_new_iu+0x61e/0x7f0 [ib_srpt] __ib_process_cq+0x55/0xa0 [ib_core] ib_cq_poll_work+0x1b/0x60 [ib_core] process_one_work+0x141/0x340 worker_thread+0x47/0x3e0 kthread+0xf5/0x130 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 Fixes: e80a0af4759a ("lib/scatterlist: Introduce sgl_alloc() and sgl_free()") Reported-by: Laurence Oberman <loberman@redhat.com> Tested-by: Laurence Oberman <loberman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@wdc.com> Cc: Nicholas A.
