<title>nvme: validate controller state before rescheduling keep alive</title>

<id>86880d646122240596d6719b642fee3213239994</id>
<content type='text'>
Delete operations are seeing NULL pointer references in call_timer_fn.
Tracking these back, the timer appears to be the keep alive timer.

nvme_keep_alive_work() which is tied to the timer that is cancelled
by nvme_stop_keep_alive(), simply starts the keep alive io but doesn't
wait for it's completion. So nvme_stop_keep_alive() only stops a timer
when it's pending. When a keep alive is in flight, there is no timer
running and the nvme_stop_keep_alive() will have no affect on the keep
alive io. Thus, if the io completes successfully, the keep alive timer
will be rescheduled.   In the failure case, delete is called, the
controller state is changed, the nvme_stop_keep_alive() is called while
the io is outstanding, and the delete path continues on. The keep
alive happens to successfully complete before the delete paths mark it
as aborted as part of the queue termination, so the timer is restarted.
The delete paths then tear down the controller, and later on the timer
code fires and the timer entry is now corrupt.

Fix by validating the controller state before rescheduling the keep
alive. Testing with the fix has confirmed the condition above was hit.

<title>nvme: flush namespace scanning work just before removing namespaces</title>

nvme_stop_ctrl can be called also for reset flow and there is no need to
flush the scan_work as namespaces are not being removed. This can cause
deadlock in rdma, fc and loop drivers since nvme_stop_ctrl barriers
before controller teardown (and specifically I/O cancellation of the
scan_work itself) takes place, but the scan_work will be blocked anyways
so there is no need to flush it.

Instead, move scan_work flush to nvme_remove_namespaces() where it really
needs to flush.

When a PCIe NVMe device is not present, nvme_dev_remove_admin() calls
blk_cleanup_queue() on the admin queue, which frees the hctx for that
queue.  Moments later, on the same path nvme_kill_queues() calls
blk_mq_unquiesce_queue() on admin queue and tries to access hctx of it,
which leads to following OOPS:

Free the kobject name that was allocated for the controller device on
failure rather than its parent.

<title>nvme-fc: resolve io failures during connect</title>

<content type='text'>
If an io error occurs on an io issued while connecting, recovery
of the io falls flat as the state checking ends up nooping the error
handler.

Create an err_work work item that is scheduled upon an io error while
connecting. The work thread terminates all io on all queues and marks
the queues as not connected.  The termination of the io will return
back to the callee, which will then back out of the connection attempt
and will reschedule, if possible, the connection attempt.

The changes:
- in case there are several commands hitting the error handler, a
  state flag is kept so that the error work is only scheduled once,
  on the first error. The subsequent errors can be ignored.
- The calling sequence to stop keep alive and terminate the queues
  and their io is lifted from the reset routine. Made a small
  service routine used by both reset and err_work.
- During debugging, found that the teardown path can reference
  an uninitialized pointer, resulting in a NULL pointer oops.
  The aen_ops weren't initialized yet. Add validation on their
  initialization before calling the teardown routine.

Pull block layer fixes from Jens Axboe:

 - Two fixes for an ubd regression, one for missing locking, and one for
   a missing initialization of a field. The latter was an old latent
   bug, but it's now visible and triggers (Me, Anton Ivanov)

 - Set of NVMe fixes via Christoph, but applied manually due to a git
   tree mixup (Christoph, Sagi)

 - Fix for a discard split regression, in three patches (Ming)

 - Update libata git trees (Geert)

 - SPDX identifier for sata_rcar (Kuninori Morimoto)

 - Virtual boundary merge fix (Johannes)

 - Preemptively clear memory we are going to pass to userspace, in case
   the driver does a short read (Keith)
