commit 3fc9fb13a4b2576aeab86c62fd64eb29ab68659c upstream.

This patch fixes a se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref reference leak that can
occur when a non immediate TMR is proceeded our of command
sequence number order, and CMDSN_LOWER_THAN_EXP is returned
by iscsit_sequence_cmd().

To address this bug, call target_put_sess_cmd() during this
special case following what iscsit_process_scsi_cmd() does
upon CMDSN_LOWER_THAN_EXP.

<title>iscsi-target: Make TASK_REASSIGN use proper se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref</title>

commit ae072726f6109bb1c94841d6fb3a82dde298ea85 upstream.

Since commit 59b6986dbf fixed a potential NULL pointer dereference
by allocating a se_tmr_req for ISCSI_TM_FUNC_TASK_REASSIGN, the
se_tmr_req is currently leaked by iscsit_free_cmd() because no
iscsi_cmd-&gt;se_cmd.se_tfo was associated.

To address this, treat ISCSI_TM_FUNC_TASK_REASSIGN like any other
TMR and call transport_init_se_cmd() + target_get_sess_cmd() to
setup iscsi_cmd-&gt;se_cmd.se_tfo with se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref of 2.

This will ensure normal release operation once se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref
reaches zero and target_release_cmd_kref() is invoked, se_tmr_req
will be released via existing target_free_cmd_mem() and
core_tmr_release_req() code.

commit 59b6986dbfcdab96a971f9663221849de79a7556 upstream.

Allocate a task management request structure for all task management
requests, including task reassignment. This change avoids that the
se_tmr-&gt;response assignment dereferences an uninitialized se_tmr
pointer.

<title>target: Avoid early CMD_T_PRE_EXECUTE failures during ABORT_TASK</title>

commit 1c21a48055a67ceb693e9c2587824a8de60a217c upstream.

This patch fixes bug where early se_cmd exceptions that occur
before backend execution can result in use-after-free if/when
a subsequent ABORT_TASK occurs for the same tag.

Since an early se_cmd exception will have had se_cmd added to
se_session-&gt;sess_cmd_list via target_get_sess_cmd(), it will
not have CMD_T_COMPLETE set by the usual target_complete_cmd()
backend completion path.

This causes a subsequent ABORT_TASK + __target_check_io_state()
to signal ABORT_TASK should proceed.  As core_tmr_abort_task()
executes, it will bring the outstanding se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref count
down to zero releasing se_cmd, after se_cmd has already been
queued with error status into fabric driver response path code.

To address this bug, introduce a CMD_T_PRE_EXECUTE bit that is
set at target_get_sess_cmd() time, and cleared immediately before
backend driver dispatch in target_execute_cmd() once CMD_T_ACTIVE
is set.

Then, check CMD_T_PRE_EXECUTE within __target_check_io_state() to
determine when an early exception has occured, and avoid aborting
this se_cmd since it will have already been queued into fabric
driver response path code.

commit 978d13d60c34818a41fc35962602bdfa5c03f214 upstream.

This patch fixes a bug associated with iscsit_reset_np_thread()
that can occur during parallel configfs rmdir of a single iscsi_np
used across multiple iscsi-target instances, that would result in
hung task(s) similar to below where configfs rmdir process context
was blocked indefinately waiting for iscsi_np-&gt;np_restart_comp
to finish:

It would happen because each iscsit_reset_np_thread() sets state
to ISCSI_NP_THREAD_RESET, sends SIGINT, and then blocks waiting
for completion on iscsi_np-&gt;np_restart_comp.

However, if iscsi_np was active processing a login request and
more than a single iscsit_reset_np_thread() caller to the same
iscsi_np was blocked on iscsi_np-&gt;np_restart_comp, iscsi_np
kthread process context in __iscsi_target_login_thread() would
flush pending signals and only perform a single completion of
np-&gt;np_restart_comp before going back to sleep within transport
specific iscsit_transport-&gt;iscsi_accept_np code.

To address this bug, add a iscsi_np-&gt;np_reset_count and update
__iscsi_target_login_thread() to keep completing np-&gt;np_restart_comp
until -&gt;np_reset_count has reached zero.

      iscsi-target: Drop work-around for legacy GlobalSAN initiator

Namely, the workaround for FirstBurstLength ended up being required by
Mellanox Flexboot PXE boot ROMs as reported by Robert.

So this patch re-adds the work-around for FirstBurstLength within
iscsi_check_proposer_for_optional_reply(), and makes the key optional
to respond when the initiator does not propose, nor respond to it.

Also as requested by Arun, this patch introduces a new TPG attribute
named 'login_keys_workaround' that controls the use of both the
FirstBurstLength workaround, as well as the two other existing
workarounds for gPXE iSCSI boot client.

By default, the workaround is enabled with login_keys_workaround=1,
since Mellanox FlexBoot requires it, and Arun has verified the Qlogic
MSFT initiator already proposes FirstBurstLength, so it's uneffected
by this re-adding this part of the original work-around.

commit 1d6ef276594a781686058802996e09c8550fd767 upstream.

This patch addresses a COMPARE_AND_WRITE se_device-&gt;caw_sem leak,
that would be triggered during normal se_cmd shutdown or abort
via __transport_wait_for_tasks().

This would occur because target_complete_cmd() would catch this
early and do complete_all(&amp;cmd-&gt;t_transport_stop_comp), but since
target_complete_ok_work() or target_complete_failure_work() are
never called to invoke se_cmd-&gt;transport_complete_callback(),
the COMPARE_AND_WRITE specific callbacks never release caw_sem.

To address this special case, go ahead and release caw_sem
directly from target_complete_cmd().

(Remove '&amp;&amp; success' from check, to release caw_sem regardless
 of scsi_status - nab)

<content type='text'>
commit 73d4e580ccc5c3e05cea002f18111f66c9c07034 upstream.

This patch fixes a se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref underflow during CMD_T_ABORTED
when a fabric driver drops it's second reference from below the
target_core_tmr.c based callers of transport_cmd_finish_abort().

Recently with the conversion of kref to refcount_t, this bug was
manifesting itself as:

[705519.601034] refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
[705519.604034] INFO: NMI handler (kgdb_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 20116.512 msecs
[705539.719111] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[705539.719117] WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 26510 at lib/refcount.c:184 refcount_sub_and_test+0x33/0x51

Since the original kref atomic_t based kref_put() didn't check for
underflow and only invoked the final callback when zero was reached,
this bug did not manifest in practice since all se_cmd memory is
using preallocated tags.

To address this, go ahead and propigate the existing return from
transport_put_cmd() up via transport_cmd_finish_abort(), and
change transport_cmd_finish_abort() + core_tmr_handle_tas_abort()
callers to only do their local target_put_sess_cmd() if necessary.

commit 5e0cf5e6c43b9e19fc0284f69e5cd2b4a47523b0 upstream.

There are three timing problems in the kthread usages of iscsi_target_mod:

 - np_thread of struct iscsi_np
 - rx_thread and tx_thread of struct iscsi_conn

In iscsit_close_connection(), it calls

 send_sig(SIGINT, conn-&gt;tx_thread, 1);
 kthread_stop(conn-&gt;tx_thread);

In conn-&gt;tx_thread, which is iscsi_target_tx_thread(), when it receive
SIGINT the kthread will exit without checking the return value of
kthread_should_stop().

So if iscsi_target_tx_thread() exit right between send_sig(SIGINT...)
and kthread_stop(...), the kthread_stop() will try to stop an already
stopped kthread.

This is invalid according to the documentation of kthread_stop().

(Fix -ECONNRESET logout handling in iscsi_target_tx_thread and
 early iscsi_target_rx_thread failure case - nab)

This patch fixes a OOPs originally introduced by:

   iscsi-target: Add sk-&gt;sk_state_change to cleanup after TCP failure

which would trigger a NULL pointer dereference when a TCP connection
was closed asynchronously via iscsi_target_sk_state_change(), but only
when the initial PDU processing in iscsi_target_do_login() from iscsi_np
process context was blocked waiting for backend I/O to complete.

To address this issue, this patch makes the following changes.

First, it introduces some common helper functions used for checking
socket closing state, checking login_flags, and atomically checking
socket closing state + setting login_flags.

Second, it introduces a LOGIN_FLAGS_INITIAL_PDU bit to know when a TCP
connection has dropped via iscsi_target_sk_state_change(), but the
initial PDU processing within iscsi_target_do_login() in iscsi_np
context is still running.  For this case, it sets LOGIN_FLAGS_CLOSED,
but doesn't invoke schedule_delayed_work().

The original NULL pointer dereference case reported by MNC is now handled
by iscsi_target_do_login() doing a iscsi_target_sk_check_close() before
transitioning to FFP to determine when the socket has already closed,
or iscsi_target_start_negotiation() if the login needs to exchange
more PDUs (eg: iscsi_target_do_login returned 0) but the socket has
closed.  For both of these cases, the cleanup up of remaining connection
resources will occur in iscsi_target_start_negotiation() from iscsi_np
process context once the failure is detected.

Finally, to handle to case where iscsi_target_sk_state_change() is
called after the initial PDU procesing is complete, it now invokes
conn-&gt;login_work -&gt; iscsi_target_do_login_rx() to perform cleanup once
existing iscsi_target_sk_check_close() checks detect connection failure.
For this case, the cleanup of remaining connection resources will occur
in iscsi_target_do_login_rx() from delayed workqueue process context
once the failure is detected.
