Title
block: recompute nr_integrity_segments in blk_insert_cloned_request
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: recompute nr_integrity_segments in blk_insert_cloned_request blk_insert_cloned_request() already recomputes nr_phys_segments against the bottom queue, because "the queue settings related to segment counting may differ from the original queue." The exact same reasoning applies to integrity segments: a stacked driver's underlying queue can have tighter virt_boundary_mask, seg_boundary_mask, or max_segment_size than the top queue, in which case blk_rq_count_integrity_sg() against the bottom queue produces a different count than the cached rq->nr_integrity_segments inherited from the source request by blk_rq_prep_clone(). When the cached count is lower than the bottom queue's actual count, blk_rq_map_integrity_sg() trips BUG_ON(segments > rq->nr_integrity_segments); on dispatch. The same families of stacked setups that motivated the existing nr_phys_segments recompute -- dm-multipath fanning out to nvme-rdma in particular -- can produce this. Mirror the nr_phys_segments handling: when the request carries integrity, recompute nr_integrity_segments against the bottom queue and reject the request if it exceeds the bottom queue's max_integrity_segments. blk_rq_count_integrity_sg() and queue_max_integrity_segments() are both already available via <linux/blk-integrity.h>, which blk-mq.c includes. This closes a latent gap in the stacking contract and brings the integrity-segment accounting in line with the existing phys-segment accounting.

The same families of stacked setups that motivated the\nexisting nr_phys_segments recompute -- dm-multipath fanning out to\nnvme-rdma in particular -- can produce this.\n\nMirror the nr_phys_segments handling: when the request carries\nintegrity, recompute nr_integrity_segments against the bottom queue\nand reject the request if it exceeds the bottom queue\u0027s\nmax_integrity_segments. blk_rq_count_integrity_sg() and\nqueue_max_integrity_segments() are both already available via\n\u003clinux/blk-integrity.h\u003e, which blk-mq.c includes.\n\nThis closes a latent gap in the stacking contract and brings the\nintegrity-segment accounting in line with the existing\nphys-segment accounting."
