[PATCH 5.10 038/157] nvme-tcp: fix possible hang when failing to set io queues

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Mar 22 2021 - 08:48:30 EST


From: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 72f572428b83d0bc7028e7c4326d1a5f45205e44 upstream.

We only setup io queues for nvme controllers, and it makes absolutely no
sense to allow a controller (re)connect without any I/O queues. If we
happen to fail setting the queue count for any reason, we should not
allow this to be a successful reconnect as I/O has no chance in going
through. Instead just fail and schedule another reconnect.

Fixes: 3f2304f8c6d6 ("nvme-tcp: add NVMe over TCP host driver")
