In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

dm cache: prevent BUG_ON by blocking retries on failed device resumes

A cache device failing to resume due to mapping errors should not be retried, as the failure leaves a partially initialized policy object. Repeating the resume operation risks triggering BUG_ON when reloading cache mappings into the incomplete policy object.

Reproduce steps:

1. create a cache metadata consisting of 512 or more cache blocks, with some mappings stored in the first array block of the mapping array. Here we use cache_restore v1.0 to build the metadata.

cat <> cmeta.xml <superblock uuid="" block_size="128" nr_cache_blocks="512"
policy="smq" hint_width="4"> EOF dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0" cache_restore -i cmeta.xml -o /dev/mapper/cmeta --metadata-version=2 dmsetup remove cmeta

2. wipe the second array block of the mapping array to simulate data degradations.

mapping_root=$(dd if=/dev/sdc bs=1c count=8 skip=192
2>/dev/null | hexdump -e '1/8 "%u\n"') ablock=$(dd if=/dev/sdc bs=1c count=8 skip=$((4096*mapping_root+2056))
2>/dev/null | hexdump -e '1/8 "%u\n"') dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=4k count=1 seek=$ablock

3. try bringing up the cache device. The resume is expected to fail due to the broken array block.

dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0" dmsetup create cdata --table "0 65536 linear /dev/sdc 8192" dmsetup create corig --table "0 524288 linear /dev/sdc 262144" dmsetup create cache --notable dmsetup load cache --table "0 524288 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta
/dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 writethrough smq 0" dmsetup resume cache

4. try resuming the cache again. An unexpected BUG_ON is triggered while loading cache mappings.

dmsetup resume cache

Fix by disallowing resume operations for devices that failed the initial attempt.
