<id>0d68fc4f1210f8caea2bdd68f99dc6da35ee3740</id>
<content type='text'>
When we create a new infiniband link with uninfiniband device, e.g. `ip link
add link em1 type ipoib pkey 0x8001`. We will get a NULL pointer dereference
cause other dev like Ethernet don't have struct ib_device.

The code path is:
rtnl_newlink
  |-- ipoib_new_child_link
        |-- __ipoib_vlan_add
              |-- ipoib_set_dev_features
                    |-- ib_query_device

Fix this bug by make sure the src net is infiniband when create new link.

<title>iser-target: Move INIT_WORK setup into isert_create_device_ib_res</title>

<id>2853c2b6671509591be09213954d7249ca6ff224</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch moves INIT_WORK setup for cq_desc-&gt;cq_[rx,tx]_work into
isert_create_device_ib_res(), instead of being done each callback
invocation in isert_cq_[rx,tx]_callback().

This also fixes a 'INFO: trying to register non-static key' warning
when cancel_work_sync() is called before INIT_WORK has setup the
struct work_struct.

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Things have been quiet this round with mostly bugfixes, percpu
  conversions, and other minor iscsi-target conformance testing changes.

  The highlights include:

   - Add demo_mode_discovery attribute for iscsi-target (Thomas)
   - Convert tcm_fc(FCoE) to use percpu-ida pre-allocation
   - Add send completion interrupt coalescing for ib_isert
   - Convert target-core to use percpu-refcounting for se_lun
   - Fix mutex_trylock usage bug in iscsit_increment_maxcmdsn
   - tcm_loop updates (Hannes)
   - target-core ALUA cleanups + prep for v3.14 SCSI Referrals support (Hannes)

  v3.14 is currently shaping to be a busy development cycle in target
  land, with initial support for T10 Referrals and T10 DIF currently on
  the roadmap"

<id>04d9cd1224e5bc9d6146bab2866cdc81deb9b509</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch avoids a duplicate iscsit_increment_maxcmdsn() call for
ISER_IB_RDMA_WRITE within isert_map_rdma() + isert_reg_rdma_frwr(),
which will already be occuring once during isert_put_datain() -&gt;
iscsit_build_rsp_pdu() operation.

It also removes the local conn-&gt;stat_sn assignment + increment,
and changes the third parameter to iscsit_build_rsp_pdu() to
signal this should be done by iscsi_target_mode code.

<content type='text'>
This patch changes isert_reg_rdma_frwr() to not use FRMR for single
dma entry requests from small I/Os, in order to avoid the associated
memory registration overhead.

Using DMA MR is sufficient here for the single dma entry requests,
and addresses a &gt;= v3.12 performance regression.
