commit 03e7848a64ed535a30f5d7fc6dede2d5a6a2534b upstream.

This patch fixes a bug where outstanding RDMA_READs with WRITE_PENDING
status require an extra target_put_sess_cmd() in isert_put_cmd() code
when called from isert_cq_tx_comp_err() + isert_cq_drain_comp_llist()
context during session shutdown.

The extra kref PUT is required so that transport_generic_free_cmd()
invokes the last target_put_sess_cmd() -&gt; target_release_cmd_kref(),
which will complete(&amp;se_cmd-&gt;cmd_wait_comp) the outstanding se_cmd
descriptor with WRITE_PENDING status, and awake the completion in
target_wait_for_sess_cmds() to invoke TFO-&gt;release_cmd().

The bug was manifesting itself in target_wait_for_sess_cmds() where
a se_cmd descriptor with WRITE_PENDING status would end up sleeping
indefinately.

<title>iser-target: Match FRMR descriptors to available session tags</title>

commit f46d6a8a01d6bbd83a97140f30a72a89b038807b upstream.

This patch changes isert_conn_create_fastreg_pool() to follow
logic in iscsi_target_locate_portal() for determining how many
FRMR descriptors to allocate based upon the number of possible
per-session command slots that are available.

This addresses an OOPs in isert_reg_rdma() where due to the
use of ISCSI_DEF_XMIT_CMDS_MAX could end up returning a bogus
fast_reg_descriptor when the number of active tags exceeded
the original hardcoded max.

Note this also includes moving isert_conn_create_fastreg_pool()
from isert_connect_request() to isert_put_login_tx() before
posting the final Login Response PDU in order to determine the
se_nacl-&gt;queue_depth (eg: number of tags) per session the target
will be enforcing.

v2 changes:
  - Move isert_conn-&gt;conn_fr_pool list_head init into
    isert_conn_request()
v3 changes:
  - Drop unnecessary list_empty() check in isert_reg_rdma()

commit b076808051f2c80d38e03fb2f1294f525c7a446d upstream.

The code was incorrectly using sg_dma_address() and
sg_dma_len() instead of ib_sg_dma_address() and
ib_sg_dma_len().

This prevents srpt from functioning with the
Intel HCA and indeed will corrupt memory
badly.

commit b2853fd6c2d0f383dbdf7427e263eb576a633867 upstream.

The code that resolves the passive side source MAC within the rdma_cm
connection request handler was both redundant and buggy, so remove it.

It was redundant since later, when an RC QP is modified to RTR state,
the resolution will take place in the ib_core module.  It was buggy
because this callback also deals with UD SIDR exchange, for which we
incorrectly looked at the REQ member of the CM event and dereferenced
a random value.

commit 37a967651caf99dd267017023737bd442f5acb3d upstream.

Commit c804f07248895ff9c moved qib_assign_ctxt() to
do_qib_user_sdma_queue_create() but dropped the braces
around the statements.

This was spotted by coccicheck (coccinelle/spatch):

$ make C=2 CHECK=scripts/coccicheck drivers/infiniband/hw/qib/

  CHECK   drivers/infiniband/hw/qib/qib_file_ops.c
drivers/infiniband/hw/qib/qib_file_ops.c:1583:2-23: code aligned with following code on line 1587

This patch adds braces back.

commit f8b6c47a44c063062317646683a73371c24c69ee upstream.

The debugfs init code was incorrectly called before the idr mechanism
is used to get the unit number, so the dd-&gt;unit hasn't been
initialized.  This caused the unit relative directory creation to fail
after the first.

This patch moves the init for the debugfs stuff until after all of the
failures and after the unit number has been determined.

A bug in unwind code in qib_alloc_devdata() is also fixed.

commit 9d194d1025f463392feafa26ff8c2d8247f71be1 upstream.

In case of error while accessing to userspace memory, function
nes_create_qp() returns NULL instead of an error code wrapped through
ERR_PTR().  But NULL is not expected by ib_uverbs_create_qp(), as it
check for error with IS_ERR().

As page 0 is likely not mapped, it is going to trigger an Oops when
the kernel will try to dereference NULL pointer to access to struct
ib_qp's fields.

In some rare cases, page 0 could be mapped by userspace, which could
turn this bug to a vulnerability that could be exploited: the function
pointers in struct ib_device will be under userspace total control.

This was caught when using spatch (aka. coccinelle)
to rewrite calls to ib_copy_{from,to}_udata().

commit a2cb0eb8a64adb29a99fd864013de957028f36ae upstream.

Guard against a potential buffer overrun.  The size to read from the
user is passed in, and due to the padding that needs to be taken into
account, as well as the place holder for the ICRC it is possible to
overflow the 32bit value which would cause more data to be copied from
user space than is allocated in the buffer.
