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.

commit ea8dc5b4cd2195ee582cae28afa4164c6dea1738 upstream.

On receiving text request iscsi-target allocates buffer for
payload in iscsit_handle_text_cmd() and assigns buffer pointer
to cmd-&gt;text_in_ptr, this buffer is currently freed in
iscsit_release_cmd(), if iscsi-target sets 'C' bit in text
response then it will receive another text request from the
initiator with ttt != 0xffffffff in this case iscsi-target
will find cmd using itt and call iscsit_setup_text_cmd()
which will set cmd-&gt;text_in_ptr to NULL without freeing
previously allocated buffer.

This patch fixes this issue by calling kfree(cmd-&gt;text_in_ptr)
in iscsit_setup_text_cmd() before assigning NULL to it.

For the first text request cmd-&gt;text_in_ptr is NULL as
cmd is memset to 0 in iscsit_allocate_cmd().

commit 105fa2f44e504c830697b0c794822112d79808dc upstream.

This patch fixes a BUG() in iscsit_close_session() that could be
triggered when iscsit_logout_post_handler() execution from within
tx thread context was not run for more than SECONDS_FOR_LOGOUT_COMP
(15 seconds), and the TCP connection didn't already close before
then forcing tx thread context to automatically exit.

This would manifest itself during explicit logout as:

[33206.974254] 1 connection(s) still exist for iSCSI session to iqn.1993-08.org.debian:01:3f5523242179
[33206.980184] INFO: NMI handler (kgdb_nmi_handler) took too long to run: 2100.772 msecs
[33209.078643] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[33209.078646] kernel BUG at drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target.c:4346!

Normally when explicit logout attempt fails, the tx thread context
exits and iscsit_close_connection() from rx thread context does the
extra cleanup once it detects conn-&gt;conn_logout_remove has not been
cleared by the logout type specific post handlers.

To address this special case, if the logout post handler in tx thread
context detects conn-&gt;tx_thread_active has already been cleared, simply
return and exit in order for existing iscsit_close_connection()
logic from rx thread context do failed logout cleanup.

commit 25cdda95fda78d22d44157da15aa7ea34be3c804 upstream.

This patch fixes a OOPs originally introduced by:

   commit bb048357dad6d604520c91586334c9c230366a14
   Author: Nicholas Bellinger &lt;nab@linux-iscsi.org&gt;
   Date:   Thu Sep 5 14:54:04 2013 -0700

   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.

commit 8f0dfb3d8b1120c61f6e2cc3729290db10772b2d upstream.

There is a iscsi-target/tcp login race in LOGIN_FLAGS_READY
state assignment that can result in frequent errors during
iscsi discovery:

      "iSCSI Login negotiation failed."

To address this bug, move the initial LOGIN_FLAGS_READY
assignment ahead of iscsi_target_do_login() when handling
the initial iscsi_target_start_negotiation() request PDU
during connection login.

As iscsi_target_do_login_rx() work_struct callback is
clearing LOGIN_FLAGS_READ_ACTIVE after subsequent calls
to iscsi_target_do_login(), the early sk_data_ready
ahead of the first iscsi_target_do_login() expects
LOGIN_FLAGS_READY to also be set for the initial
login request PDU.

As reported by Maged, this was first obsered using an
MSFT initiator running across multiple VMWare host
virtual machines with iscsi-target/tcp.

<title>iscsi-target: Always wait for kthread_should_stop() before kthread exit</title>

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)

<title>target: Avoid mappedlun symlink creation during lun shutdown</title>

commit 49cb77e297dc611a1b795cfeb79452b3002bd331 upstream.

This patch closes a race between se_lun deletion during configfs
unlink in target_fabric_port_unlink() -&gt; core_dev_del_lun()
-&gt; core_tpg_remove_lun(), when transport_clear_lun_ref() blocks
waiting for percpu_ref RCU grace period to finish, but a new
NodeACL mappedlun is added before the RCU grace period has
completed.

This can happen in target_fabric_mappedlun_link() because it
only checks for se_lun-&gt;lun_se_dev, which is not cleared until
after transport_clear_lun_ref() percpu_ref RCU grace period
finishes.

This bug originally manifested as NULL pointer dereference
OOPsen in target_stat_scsi_att_intr_port_show_attr_dev() on
v4.1.y code, because it dereferences lun-&gt;lun_se_dev without
a explicit NULL pointer check.

In post v4.1 code with target-core RCU conversion, the code
in target_stat_scsi_att_intr_port_show_attr_dev() no longer
uses se_lun-&gt;lun_se_dev, but the same race still exists.

To address the bug, go ahead and set se_lun&gt;lun_shutdown as
early as possible in core_tpg_remove_lun(), and ensure new
NodeACL mappedlun creation in target_fabric_mappedlun_link()
fails during se_lun shutdown.

<title>target: Fix COMPARE_AND_WRITE caw_sem leak during se_cmd quiesce</title>

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)

commit 138d351eefb727ab9e41a3dc5f112ceb4f6e59f2 upstream.

This patch re-introduces part of a long standing login workaround that
was recently dropped by:

  commit 1c99de981f30b3e7868b8d20ce5479fa1c0fea46
  Author: Nicholas Bellinger &lt;nab@linux-iscsi.org&gt;
  Date:   Sun Apr 2 13:36:44 2017 -0700

      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.

<title>iscsi-target: Reject immediate data underflow larger than SCSI transfer length</title>

commit abb85a9b512e8ca7ad04a5a8a6db9664fe644974 upstream.

When iscsi WRITE underflow occurs there are two different scenarios
that can happen.

Normally in practice, when an EDTL vs. SCSI CDB TRANSFER LENGTH
underflow is detected, the iscsi immediate data payload is the
smaller SCSI CDB TRANSFER LENGTH.

That is, when a host fabric LLD is using a fixed size EDTL for
a specific control CDB, the SCSI CDB TRANSFER LENGTH and actual
SCSI payload ends up being smaller than EDTL.  In iscsi, this
means the received iscsi immediate data payload matches the
smaller SCSI CDB TRANSFER LENGTH, because there is no more
SCSI payload to accept beyond SCSI CDB TRANSFER LENGTH.

However, it's possible for a malicous host to send a WRITE
underflow where EDTL is larger than SCSI CDB TRANSFER LENGTH,
but incoming iscsi immediate data actually matches EDTL.

In the wild, we've never had a iscsi host environment actually
try to do this.

For this special case, it's wrong to truncate part of the
control CDB payload and continue to process the command during
underflow when immediate data payload received was larger than
SCSI CDB TRANSFER LENGTH, so go ahead and reject and drop the
bogus payload as a defensive action.

Note this potential bug was originally relaxed by the following
for allowing WRITE underflow in MSFT FCP host environments:
