[PATCH 4.18 049/228] scsi: target: Avoid that EXTENDED COPY commands trigger lock inversion
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Oct 02 2018 - 10:12:57 EST
4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 36d4cb460bcbe2a1323732a6e4bb9dd783284368 ]
The approach for adding a device to the devices_idr data structure and for
removing it is as follows:
* &dev->dev_group.cg_item is initialized before a device is added to
devices_idr.
* If the reference count of a device drops to zero then
target_free_device() removes the device from devices_idr.
* All devices_idr manipulations are protected by device_mutex.
This means that increasing the reference count of a device is sufficient to
prevent removal from devices_idr and also that it is safe access
dev_group.cg_item for any device that is referenced by devices_idr. Use
this to modify target_find_device() and target_for_each_device() such that
these functions no longer introduce a dependency between device_mutex and
the configfs root inode mutex.
Note: it is safe to pass a NULL pointer to config_item_put() and also to
config_item_get_unless_zero().
This patch prevents that lockdep reports the following complaint:
