[ Upstream commit bb16db8393658e0978c3f0d30ae069e878264fa3 ]

With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. A
proposed warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which
reveals:

  drivers/s390/net/lcs.c:2090:21: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'netdev_tx_t (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' (aka 'enum netdev_tx (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
          .ndo_start_xmit         = lcs_start_xmit,
                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

-&gt;ndo_start_xmit() in 'struct net_device_ops' expects a return type of
'netdev_tx_t', not 'int'. Adjust the return type of lcs_start_xmit() to
match the prototype's to resolve the warning and potential CFI failure,
should s390 select ARCH_SUPPORTS_CFI_CLANG in the future.

commit db7ba07108a48c0f95b74fabbfd5d63e924f992d upstream.

Fix Oops in dasd_alias_get_start_dev() function caused by the pavgroup
pointer being NULL.

The pavgroup pointer is checked on the entrance of the function but
without the lcu-&gt;lock being held. Therefore there is a race window
between dasd_alias_get_start_dev() and _lcu_update() which sets
pavgroup to NULL with the lcu-&gt;lock held.

Fix by checking the pavgroup pointer with lcu-&gt;lock held.

<title>scsi: zfcp: Fix missing auto port scan and thus missing target ports</title>

<id>7008a266c12c0152bb381dea45761382b179e6b7</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 4da8c5f76825269f28d6a89fa752934a4bcb6dfa upstream.

Case (1):
  The only waiter on wka_port-&gt;completion_wq is zfcp_fc_wka_port_get()
  trying to open a WKA port. As such it should only be woken up by WKA port
  *open* responses, not by WKA port close responses.

Case (2):
  A close WKA port response coming in just after having sent a new open WKA
  port request and before blocking for the open response with wait_event()
  in zfcp_fc_wka_port_get() erroneously renders the wait_event a NOP
  because the close handler overwrites wka_port-&gt;status. Hence the
  wait_event condition is erroneously true and it does not enter blocking
  state.

With non-negligible probability, the following time space sequence happens
depending on timing without this fix:

So we erroneously end up with no automatic port scan. This is a big problem
when it happens during boot. The timing is influenced by v3.19 commit
18f87a67e6d6 ("zfcp: auto port scan resiliency").

Fix it by fully mutually excluding zfcp_fc_wka_port_get() and
zfcp_fc_wka_port_offline(). For that to work, we make the latter block
until we got the response for a close WKA port. In order not to penalize
the system workqueue, we move wka_port-&gt;work to our own adapter workqueue.
Note that before v2.6.30 commit 828bc1212a68 ("[SCSI] zfcp: Set WKA-port to
offline on adapter deactivation"), zfcp did block in
zfcp_fc_wka_port_offline() as well, but with a different condition.

While at it, make non-functional cleanups to improve code reading in
zfcp_fc_wka_port_get(). If we cannot send the WKA port open request, don't
rely on the subsequent wait_event condition to immediately let this case
pass without blocking. Also don't want to rely on the additional condition
handling the refcount to be skipped just to finally return with -EIO.

commit 4da8c5f76825269f28d6a89fa752934a4bcb6dfa upstream.

Case (1):
  The only waiter on wka_port-&gt;completion_wq is zfcp_fc_wka_port_get()
  trying to open a WKA port. As such it should only be woken up by WKA port
  *open* responses, not by WKA port close responses.

Case (2):
  A close WKA port response coming in just after having sent a new open WKA
  port request and before blocking for the open response with wait_event()
  in zfcp_fc_wka_port_get() erroneously renders the wait_event a NOP
  because the close handler overwrites wka_port-&gt;status. Hence the
  wait_event condition is erroneously true and it does not enter blocking
  state.

With non-negligible probability, the following time space sequence happens
depending on timing without this fix:

Since commit a9c3f68f3cd8d (tty: Fix low_latency BUG) in 2014,
tty_flip_buffer_push() is only a wrapper to tty_schedule_flip(). We are
going to remove the latter (as it is used less), so call the former in
the rest of the users.

<content type='text'>
commit 8c9db6679be4348b8aae108e11d4be2f83976e30 upstream.

Suppose we have an environment with a number of non-NPIV FCP devices
(virtual HBAs / FCP devices / zfcp "adapter"s) sharing the same physical
FCP channel (HBA port) and its I_T nexus. Plus a number of storage target
ports zoned to such shared channel. Now one target port logs out of the
fabric causing an RSCN. Zfcp reacts with an ADISC ELS and subsequent port
recovery depending on the ADISC result. This happens on all such FCP
devices (in different Linux images) concurrently as they all receive a copy
of this RSCN. In the following we look at one of those FCP devices.

Requests other than FSF_QTCB_FCP_CMND can be slow until they get a
response.

Depending on which requests are affected by slow responses, there are
different recovery outcomes. Here we want to fix failed recoveries on port
or adapter level by avoiding recovery requests that can be slow.

We need the cached N_Port_ID for the remote port "link" test with ADISC.
Just before sending the ADISC, we now intentionally forget the old cached
N_Port_ID. The idea is that on receiving an RSCN for a port, we have to
assume that any cached information about this port is stale.  This forces a
fresh new GID_PN [FC-GS] nameserver lookup on any subsequent recovery for
the same port. Since we typically can still communicate with the nameserver
efficiently, we now reach steady state quicker: Either the nameserver still
does not know about the port so we stop recovery, or the nameserver already
knows the port potentially with a new N_Port_ID and we can successfully and
quickly perform open port recovery.  For the one case, where ADISC returns
successfully, we re-initialize port-&gt;d_id because that case does not
involve any port recovery.

This also solves a problem if the storage WWPN quickly logs into the fabric
again but with a different N_Port_ID. Such as on virtual WWPN takeover
during target NPIV failover.
[https://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/redp5477.html] In that case the
RSCN from the storage FDISC was ignored by zfcp and we could not
successfully recover the failover. On some later failback on the storage,
we could have been lucky if the virtual WWPN got the same old N_Port_ID
from the SAN switch as we still had cached.  Then the related RSCN
triggered a successful port reopen recovery.  However, there is no
guarantee to get the same N_Port_ID on NPIV FDISC.

Even though NPIV-enabled FCP devices are not affected by this problem, this
code change optimizes recovery time for gone remote ports as a side effect.
The timely drop of cached N_Port_IDs prevents unnecessary slow open port
attempts.

While the problem might have been in code before v2.6.32 commit
799b76d09aee ("[SCSI] zfcp: Decouple gid_pn requests from erp") this fix
depends on the gid_pn_work introduced with that commit, so we mark it as
culprit to satisfy fix dependencies.

Note: Point-to-point remote port is already handled separately and gets its
N_Port_ID from the cached peer_d_id. So resetting port-&gt;d_id in general
does not affect PtP.

commit 8c9db6679be4348b8aae108e11d4be2f83976e30 upstream.

Suppose we have an environment with a number of non-NPIV FCP devices
(virtual HBAs / FCP devices / zfcp "adapter"s) sharing the same physical
FCP channel (HBA port) and its I_T nexus. Plus a number of storage target
ports zoned to such shared channel. Now one target port logs out of the
fabric causing an RSCN. Zfcp reacts with an ADISC ELS and subsequent port
recovery depending on the ADISC result. This happens on all such FCP
devices (in different Linux images) concurrently as they all receive a copy
of this RSCN. In the following we look at one of those FCP devices.

Requests other than FSF_QTCB_FCP_CMND can be slow until they get a
response.

Depending on which requests are affected by slow responses, there are
different recovery outcomes. Here we want to fix failed recoveries on port
or adapter level by avoiding recovery requests that can be slow.
