[PATCH 4.9 18/42] scsi: libiscsi: Fix NOP race condition

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Dec 01 2020 - 03:55:52 EST


From: Lee Duncan <lduncan@xxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit fe0a8a95e7134d0b44cd407bc0085b9ba8d8fe31 ]

iSCSI NOPs are sometimes "lost", mistakenly sent to the user-land iscsid
daemon instead of handled in the kernel, as they should be, resulting in a
message from the daemon like:

iscsid: Got nop in, but kernel supports nop handling.

This can occur because of the new forward- and back-locks, and the fact
that an iSCSI NOP response can occur before processing of the NOP send is
complete. This can result in "conn->ping_task" being NULL in
iscsi_nop_out_rsp(), when the pointer is actually in the process of being
set.

To work around this, we add a new state to the "ping_task" pointer. In
addition to NULL (not assigned) and a pointer (assigned), we add the state
"being set", which is signaled with an INVALID pointer (using "-1").
