commit a621bac3044ed6f7ec5fa0326491b2d4838bfa93 upstream.

When SCSI was written, all commands coming from the filesystem
(REQ_TYPE_FS commands) had data.  This meant that our signal for needing
to complete the command was the number of bytes completed being equal to
the number of bytes in the request.  Unfortunately, with the advent of
flush barriers, we can now get zero length REQ_TYPE_FS commands, which
confuse this logic because they satisfy the condition every time.  This
means they never get retried even for retryable conditions, like UNIT
ATTENTION because we complete them early assuming they're done.  Fix
this by special casing the early completion condition to recognise zero
length commands with errors and let them drop through to the retry code.

commit bc85dc500f9df9b2eec15077e5046672c46adeaa upstream.

By folding scsi_end_request into its only caller we can significantly clean
up the completion logic.  We can use simple goto labels now to only have
a single place to finish or requeue command there instead of the previous
convoluted logic.

commit 54e430bbd490e18ab116afa4cd90dcc45787b3df upstream.

If we fall back to using LSI on the Croc or Crocodile chip we need to
clear the interrupt so we don't hang the system.

<title>scsi: fix race between simultaneous decrements of -&gt;host_failed</title>

commit 72d8c36ec364c82bf1bf0c64dfa1041cfaf139f7 upstream.

sas_ata_strategy_handler() adds the works of the ata error handler to
system_unbound_wq. This workqueue asynchronously runs work items, so the
ata error handler will be performed concurrently on different CPUs. In
this case, -&gt;host_failed will be decreased simultaneously in
scsi_eh_finish_cmd() on different CPUs, and become abnormal.

It will lead to permanently inequality between -&gt;host_failed and
-&gt;host_busy, and scsi error handler thread won't start running. IO
errors after that won't be handled.

Since all scmds must have been handled in the strategy handler, just
remove the decrement in scsi_eh_finish_cmd() and zero -&gt;host_busy after
the strategy handler to fix this race.

commit fc4bf75ea300a5e62a2419f89dd0e22189dd7ab7 upstream.

Typically under error conditions, it is possible for aac_command_thread()
to miss the wakeup from kthread_stop() and go back to sleep, causing it
to hang aac_shutdown.

In the observed scenario, the adapter is not functioning correctly and so
aac_fib_send() never completes (or time-outs depending on how it was
called). Shortly after aac_command_thread() starts it performs
aac_fib_send(SendHostTime) which hangs. When aac_probe_one
/aac_get_adapter_info send time outs, kthread_stop is called which breaks
the command thread out of it's hang.

The code will still go back to sleep in schedule_timeout() without
checking kthread_should_stop() so it causes aac_probe_one to hang until
the schedule_timeout() which is 30 minutes.

Fixed by: Adding another kthread_should_stop() before schedule_timeout()

commit 07beca2be24cc710461c0b131832524c9ee08910 upstream.

aac_fib_send has a special function case for initial commands during
driver initialization using wait &lt; 0(pseudo sync mode). In this case,
the command does not sleep but rather spins checking for timeout.This
loop is calls cpu_relax() in an attempt to allow other processes/threads
to use the CPU, but this function does not relinquish the CPU and so the
command will hog the processor. This was observed in a KDUMP
"crashkernel" and that prevented the "command thread" (which is
responsible for completing the command from being timed out) from
starting because it could not get the CPU.

Fixed by replacing "cpu_relax()" call with "schedule()"

commit aeb6641f8ebdd61939f462a8255b316f9bfab707 upstream.

gcc-6 complains about the indentation of the lpfc_destroy_vport_work_array()
call in lpfc_online(), which clearly doesn't look right:

drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_init.c: In function 'lpfc_online':
drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_init.c:2880:3: warning: statement is indented as if it were guarded by... [-Wmisleading-indentation]
   lpfc_destroy_vport_work_array(phba, vports);
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_init.c:2863:2: note: ...this 'if' clause, but it is not
  if (vports != NULL)
  ^~

Looking at the patch that introduced this code, it's clear that the
behavior is correct and the indentation is wrong.

This fixes the indentation and adds curly braces around the previous
if() block for clarity, as that is most likely what caused the code
to be misindented in the first place.

commit 21b81716c6bff24cda52dc75588455f879ddbfe9 upstream.

Commit d63c7dd5bcb9 ("ipr: Fix out-of-bounds null overwrite") removed
the end of line handling when storing the update_fw sysfs attribute.
This changed the userpace API because it started refusing writes
terminated by a line feed, which broke the update tools we already have.

This patch re-adds that handling, so both a write terminated by a line
feed or not can make it through with the update.

commit d63c7dd5bcb9441af0526d370c43a65ca2c980d9 upstream.

Return value of snprintf is not bound by size value, 2nd argument.
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/htmldocs/kernel-api/API-snprintf.html).
Return value is number of printed chars, can be larger than 2nd
argument.  Therefore, it can write null byte out of bounds ofbuffer.
Since snprintf puts null, it does not need to put additional null byte.

commit 84bd64993f916bcf86270c67686ecf4cea7b8933 upstream.

In beiscsi_setup_boot_info(), the boot_kset pointer should be set to
NULL in case of failure otherwise an invalid pointer dereference may
occur later.
