commit 1765fe5edcb83f53fc67edeb559fcf4bc82c6460 upstream.

When NUMBER OF LOGICAL BLOCKS is 0, WRITE SAME is supposed to write
all the blocks from the specified LBA through the end of the device.
However, dev-&gt;transport-&gt;get_blocks(dev) (perhaps confusingly) returns
the last valid LBA rather than the number of blocks, so the correct
number of blocks to write starting with lba is

dev-&gt;transport-&gt;get_blocks(dev) - lba + 1

(nab: Backport roland's for-3.6 patch to for-3.5)

commit 3cc5d2a6b9a2fd1bf024aa5e52dd22961eecaf13 upstream.

This patch fixes a crash seen when large reads have their exchange
aborted by either timing out or being reset. Because the exchange
abort results in the seq pointer being set to NULL, because the
sequence is no longer valid, it must not be dereferenced. This
patch changes the function ft_get_task_tag to return ~0 if it is
unable to get the tag for this reason. Because the get_task_tag
interface provides no means of returning an error, this seems
like the best way to fix this issue at the moment.

commit 59e4f541baf728dbb426949bfa9f6862387ffd0e upstream.

The error paths in target_emulate_set_target_port_groups() are all
essentially "rc = -EINVAL; goto out;" but the code at "out:" ignores
rc and always returns success.  This means that even if eg explicit
ALUA is turned off, the initiator will always see a good SCSI status
for SET TARGET PORT GROUPS.

Fix this by returning rc as is intended.  It appears this bug was
added by the following patch:

<content type='text'>
commit a4dff3043c231d57f982af635c9d2192ee40e5ae upstream.

Convert to use O_DSYNC for all cases at FILEIO backend creation time to
avoid the extra syncing of pure timestamp updates with legacy O_SYNC during
default operation as recommended by hch.  Continue to do this independently of
Write Cache Enable (WCE) bit, as WCE=0 is currently the default for all backend
devices and enabled by user on per device basis via attrib/emulate_write_cache.

This patch drops the now unnecessary fd_buffered_io= token usage that was
originally signalling when to explictly disable O_SYNC at backend creation
time for buffered I/O operation.  This can end up being dangerous for a number
of reasons during physical node failure, so go ahead and drop this option
for now when O_DSYNC is used as the default.

Also allow explict FUA WRITEs -&gt; vfs_fsync_range() call to function in
fd_execute_cmd() independently of WCE bit setting.

commit cd9323fd68aee3c1c6b5b21e5746c9d1b586fb58 upstream.

This patch fixes a bug in the handling of FILEIO w/ underlying block_device
resize operations where the original fd_dev-&gt;fd_dev_size was incorrectly being
used in fd_get_blocks() for READ_CAPACITY response payloads.

This patch avoids using fd_dev-&gt;fd_dev_size for FILEIO devices with
an underlying block_device, and instead changes fd_get_blocks() to
get the sector count directly from i_size_read() as recommended by hch.

commit edc318d9fea6854df752ec8c645b960b0d5a1d23 upstream.

This patch addresses a bug in a special case for target core SPC-2 RELEASE
logic where the same physical client (eg: iSCSI InitiatorName) with
differing iSCSI session identifiers (ISID) is allowed to incorrectly release
the same client's SPC-2 reservation from the non reservation holding path.

Note this bug is specific to iscsi-target w/ SPC-2 reservations, and
with the default enforce_pr_isids=1 device attr setting in target-core
controls if a InitiatorName + different ISID reservations are handled
the same as a single iSCSI client entity.

commit cfebf8f42f47327fa54cf05c19b98f4bd5236a26 upstream.

This patch removes some potentially problematic legacy code within
core_clear_initiator_node_from_tpg() that was originally intended to
release left over se_lun_acl setup during dynamic NodeACL+MappedLUN
generate when running with TPG demo-mode operation.

Since we now only ever expect to allocate and release se_lun_acl from
within target_core_fabric_configfs.c:target_fabric_make_mappedlun() and
target_fabric_drop_mappedlun() context respectively, this code for
demo-mode release is incorrect and needs to be removed.

Avoid freeing a registered tpg structure if an alloc_workqueue call
fails.  This fixes a bug where the failure was leaking memory associated
with se_portal_group setup during the original core_tpg_register() call.

commit 06383f10c49f507220594a455c6491ca6f8c94ab upstream.

Avoid freeing a registered tpg structure if an alloc_workqueue call
fails.  This fixes a bug where the failure was leaking memory associated
with se_portal_group setup during the original core_tpg_register() call.
