Linux mainline fork with MSM8998 patches | https://mainline.space | Currently supported devices:
OnePlus 5/5T, Xiaomi Mi 6, F(x)tec Pro¹ (2019 QX1000 model) & Sony Xperia XZ Premium (UNTESTED!)
When reading unformatted tracks on ESE devices, the corresponding memory
areas are simply set to zero for each segment. This is done incorrectly
for blocksizes < 4096.
There are two problems. First, the increment of dst is done using the
counter of the loop (off), which is increased by blksize every
iteration. This leads to a much bigger increment for dst as actually
intended. Second, the increment of dst is done before the memory area
is set to 0, skipping a significant amount of bytes of memory.
This leads to illegal overwriting of memory and ultimately to a kernel
panic.
This is not a problem with 4k blocksize because
blk_queue_max_segment_size is set to PAGE_SIZE, always resulting in a
single iteration for the inner segment loop (bv.bv_len == blksize). The
incorrectly used 'off' value to increment dst is 0 and the correct
memory area is used.
In order to fix this for blksize < 4k, increment dst correctly using the
blksize and only do it at the end of the loop.

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.
