From 4f7a7beaee77275671654f7b9f3f9e73ca16ec65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Minchan Kim Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2018 17:23:10 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] zram: remove BD_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO with writeback feature If zram supports writeback feature, it's no longer a BD_CAP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO device beause zram does asynchronous IO operations for incompressible pages. Do not pretend to be synchronous IO device. It makes the system very sluggish due to waiting for IO completion from upper layers. Furthermore, it causes a user-after-free problem because swap thinks the opearion is done when the IO functions returns so it can free the page (e.g., lock_page_or_retry and goto out_release in do_swap_page) but in fact, IO is asynchronous so the driver could access a just freed page afterward. This patch fixes the problem.
