If the target device gets lost, this fix is needed, as it causes negative unintended responses on basic I/O tests. If the target device gets lost, the upstream qla2xxx driver returns SCSI_MLQUEUE_TARGET_BUSY which causes an immediate retry without drop in the number of allowed retries. This semantic change, as a result of removing FC_DEVICE_LOST check is reasonable, as it only extends a short transitional period, until the transport is called to notify that the rport as lost (fc_remote_port_delete()). Once transport notification is done, fc_remote_port_chkready() check will take over. Signed-off-by:

There's a branch at the end of this function that is supposed to normalize the return value with what the mid-layer expects. In this one case, we get it wrong. Also increase the verbosity of the INFO level printk at the end of mptscsih_abort to include the actual return value and the scmd->serial_number. The reason being success or failure is actually determined by the state of the internal tag list when a TMF is issued, and not the return value of the TMF cmd. The serial_number is also used in this decision, thus it's useful to know for debugging purposes. Cc: stable@kernel.org Reported-by:

This patch removes the legacy procfs based target_core_mib.c code, and moves the necessary scsi_index_tables functions and defines into target_core_transport.c and target_core_base.h code to allow existing fabric independent statistics to function. This includes the removal of a handful of 'atomic_t mib_ref_count' counters used in struct se_node_acl, se_session and se_hba to prevent removal while using seq_list procfs walking logic.

This patch fixes a bug introduced during the v4 control CDB emulation refactoring that broke SCF_SCSI_CONTROL_SG_IO_CDB operation within transport_map_control_cmd_to_task(). It moves the BUG_ON() into transport_do_se_mem_map() after the TRANSPORT(dev)->do_se_mem_map() RAMDISK_DR special case, and adds the proper struct se_mem assignment when !list_empty() for normal non RAMDISK_DR backend device cases.

This patch fixes two bugs uncovered during testing with slub_debug=FPUZ during module_exit() -> target_core_exit_configfs() with release of configfs subsystem consumer default groups, namely how this should be working with fs/configfs/dir.c:configfs_unregister_subsystem() release logic for struct config_group->default_group. The first issue involves configfs_unregister_subsystem() expecting to walk+drain the top-level subsys->su_group.default_groups directly in unlink_group(), and not directly from the configfs subsystem consumer for the top level struct config_group->default_groups. This patch drops the walk+drain of subsys->su_group.default_groups from TCM configfs subsystem consumer code, and moves the top-level ->default_groups kfree() after configfs_unregister_subsystem() has been called. The second issue involves calling core_alua_free_lu_gp(se_global->default_lu_gp) to release the default_lu_gp->lu_gp_group before configfs_unregister_subsystem() has been called. This patches also moves the core_alua_free_lu_gp() call to release default_lu_group->lu_gp_group after the subsys has been unregistered. Finally, this patch explictly clears the [lu_gp,alua,hba]_cg->default_groups pointers after kfree() to ensure that no stale memory is picked up from child struct config_group->default_group[] while configfs_unregister_subsystem() is called.

This patch fixes a bug in core_update_device_list_for_node() where individual demo-mode generated MappedLUN's UA + Persistent Reservations metadata where being leaked, instead of falling through and calling existing core_scsi3_ua_release_all() and core_scsi3_free_pr_reg_from_nacl() at the end of core_update_device_list_for_node().

If I create a scsi_debug device that is larger than 4GB, the multiplication of (block * scsi_debug_sector_size) can produce a 64-bit value. Unfortunately, the compiler sees two 32-bit quantities and performs a 32-bit multiplication, thus truncating the bits above 2^32. This causes the wrong memory location to be read or written. Change block and rest to be unsigned long long. Signed-off-by:

This code makes two calls to clk_get, then test both return values and fails if either failed. The problem is that in the first inner if, where the first call to clk_get has failed, it don't know if the second call has failed as well. So it don't know whether clk_get should be called on the result of the second call. Of course, it would be possible to test that value again. A simpler solution is just to test the result of calling clk_get directly after each call. The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ position p1,p2; expression e; statement S; @@ e = clk_get@p1(...) ... if@p2 (IS_ERR(e)) S @@ expression e; statement S; identifier l; position r.p1, p2 != r.p2; @@ *e = clk_get@p1(...) ... when != clk_put(e) *if@p2 (...) { ... when != clk_put(e) * return ...; }// </smpl> Signed-off-by:

Commit 3e7d3449 ("mm: vmscan: reclaim order-0 and use compaction instead of lumpy reclaim") introduced an indefinite loop in shrink_zone(). It meant to break out of this loop when no pages had been reclaimed and not a single page was even scanned. The way it would detect the latter is by taking a snapshot of sc->nr_scanned at the beginning of the function and comparing it against the new sc->nr_scanned after the scan loop. But it would re-iterate without updating that snapshot, looping forever if sc->nr_scanned changed at least once since shrink_zone() was invoked. This is not the sole condition that would exit that loop, but it requires other processes to change the zone state, as the reclaimer that is stuck obviously can not anymore. This is only happening for higher-order allocations, where reclaim is run back to back with compaction. Signed-off-by:

If the page is going to be written to, __do_page needs to break COW. However, the old page (before breaking COW) was never mapped mapped into the current pte (__do_fault is only called when the pte is not present), so vmscan can't have marked the old page as PageMlocked due to being mapped in __do_fault's VMA. Therefore, __do_fault() does not need to worry about clearing PageMlocked() on the old page. Signed-off-by:

vmscan can lazily find pages that are mapped within VM_LOCKED vmas, and set the PageMlocked bit on these pages, transfering them onto the unevictable list. When do_wp_page() breaks COW within a VM_LOCKED vma, it may need to clear PageMlocked on the old page and set it on the new page instead. This change fixes an issue where do_wp_page() was clearing PageMlocked on the old page while the pte was still pointing to it (as well as rmap). Therefore, we were not protected against vmscan immediately transfering the old page back onto the unevictable list. This could cause pages to get stranded there forever. I propose to move the corresponding code to the end of do_wp_page(), after the pte (and rmap) have been pointed to the new page. Additionally, we can use munlock_vma_page() instead of clear_page_mlock(), so that the old page stays mlocked if there are still other VM_LOCKED vmas mapping it. Signed-off-by:

However, that other ioctl blocks, waiting for the module-level mutex that replaced the BKL, and then we're stuck. This patch removes the module-level mutex altogether. It's clearly wrong, and as far as I can see, it's entirely unnecessary, since the nbd driver maintains per-device mutexes, and I don't see anything that would require a module-level (or kernel-level, for that matter) mutex.

The wake_up_process() call in ptrace_detach() is spurious and not interlocked with the tracee state. IOW, the tracee could be running or sleeping in any place in the kernel by the time wake_up_process() is called. This can lead to the tracee waking up unexpectedly which can be dangerous. The wake_up is spurious and should be removed but for now reduce its toxicity by only waking up if the tracee is in TRACED or STOPPED state. This bug can possibly be used as an attack vector. I don't think it will take too much effort to come up with an attack which triggers oops somewhere. Most sleeps are wrapped in condition test loops and should be safe but we have quite a number of places where sleep and wakeup conditions are expected to be interlocked. Although the window of opportunity is tiny, ptrace can be used by non-privileged users and with some loading the window can definitely be extended and exploited. Signed-off-by:

In commit fa0d7e3d ("fs: icache RCU free inodes"), we use rcu free inode instead of freeing the inode directly. It causes a crash when we rmmod immediately after we umount the volume[1]. So we need to call rcu_barrier after we kill_sb so that the inode is freed before we do rmmod. The idea is inspired by Aneesh Kumar. rcu_barrier will wait for all callbacks to end before preceding. The original patch was done by Tao Ma, but synchronize_rcu() is not enough here. 1. http://marc.info/?l=linux-fsdevel&m=129680863330185&w=2Tested-by:

In commit 31e6b01f ("fs: rcu-walk for path lookup") we started doing path lookup using RCU, which then falls back to a careful non-RCU lookup in case of problems (LOOKUP_REVAL). So do_filp_open() has this "re-do the lookup carefully" looping case. However, that means that we must not release the open-intent file data if we are going to loop around and use it once more! Fix this by moving the release of the open-intent data to the function that allocates it (do_filp_open() itself) rather than the helper functions that can get called multiple times (finish_open() and do_last()). This makes the logic for the lifetime of that field much more obvious, and avoids the possible double free. Reported-by:

Slight revision to this patch...use min_t() instead of conditional assignment. Also, remove the FIXME comment and replace it with the explanation that Steve gave earlier. After receiving a packet, we currently check the header. If it's no good, then we toss it out and continue the loop, leaving the caller waiting on that response. In cases where the packet has length inconsistencies, but the MID is valid, this leads to unneeded delays. That's especially problematic now that the client waits indefinitely for responses. Instead, don't immediately discard the packet if checkSMB fails. Try to find a matching mid_q_entry, mark it as having a malformed response and issue the callback. Signed-off-by:
