"Abnormal" bios include discards, write zeroes and secure erase. By no
longer passing the calculated 'len' pointer, commit 7dd06a2548b2 ("dm:
allow dm_accept_partial_bio() for dm_io without duplicate bios") took a
senseless approach to disallowing dm_accept_partial_bio() from working
for duplicate bios processed using __send_duplicate_bios().
It inadvertently and incorrectly stopped the use of 'len' when
initializing a target's io (in alloc_tio). As such the resulting tio
could address more area of a device than it should.
For example, when discarding an entire DM striped device with the
following DM table:
vg-lvol0: 0 159744 striped 2 128 7:0 2048 7:1 2048
vg-lvol0: 159744 45056 striped 2 128 7:2 2048 7:3 2048
Before this fix:
device-mapper: striped: target_stripe=0, bdev=7:0, start=2048 len=102400
blkdiscard: attempt to access beyond end of device
loop0: rw=2051, sector=2048, nr_sectors = 102400 limit=81920
device-mapper: striped: target_stripe=1, bdev=7:1, start=2048 len=102400
blkdiscard: attempt to access beyond end of device
loop1: rw=2051, sector=2048, nr_sectors = 102400 limit=81920
After this fix;
device-mapper: striped: target_stripe=0, bdev=7:0, start=2048 len=79872
device-mapper: striped: target_stripe=1, bdev=7:1, start=2048 len=79872

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
