If we failed to read data from backing file (probably because some one truncate file under us), we must zerofill cmd's data, otherwise it will be returned as is. Most likely cmd's data are unitialized pages from page cache. This result in information leak.

Use the value of the BYTCHK field to determine the size of the Data-Out buffer. For VERIFY, honor the VRPROTECT, DPO and FUA fields. This patch avoids that LIO complains about a mismatch between the expected transfer length and the SCSI CDB length if the value of the BYTCHK field is 0.

For the bidirectional case, the Data-Out buffer blocks will always at the head of the tcmu_cmd's bitmap, and before gathering the Data-In buffer, first of all it should skip the Data-Out ones, or the device supporting BIDI commands won't work.

Once upon a time back in 2009, a work-around was added to support the GlobalSAN iSCSI initiator v3.3 for MacOSX, which during login did not propose nor respond to MaxBurstLength, FirstBurstLength, DefaultTime2Wait and DefaultTime2Retain keys. The work-around in iscsi_check_proposer_for_optional_reply() allowed the missing keys to be proposed, but did not require waiting for a response before moving to full feature phase operation. This allowed GlobalSAN v3.3 to work out-of-the box, and for many years we didn't run into login interopt issues with any other initiators.. Until recently, when Martin tried a QLogic 57840S iSCSI Offload HBA on Windows 2016 which completed login, but subsequently failed with: Got unknown iSCSI OpCode: 0x43 The issue was QLogic MSFT side did not propose DefaultTime2Wait + DefaultTime2Retain, so LIO proposes them itself, and immediately transitions to full feature phase because of the GlobalSAN hack. However, the QLogic MSFT side still attempts to respond to DefaultTime2Retain + DefaultTime2Wait, even though LIO has set ISCSI_FLAG_LOGIN_NEXT_STAGE3 + ISCSI_FLAG_LOGIN_TRANSIT in last login response. So while the QLogic MSFT side should have been proposing these two keys to start, it was doing the correct thing per RFC-3720 attempting to respond to proposed keys before transitioning to full feature phase. All that said, recent versions of GlobalSAN iSCSI (v5.3.0.541) does correctly propose the four keys during login, making the original work-around moot. So in order to allow QLogic MSFT to run unmodified as-is, go ahead and drop this long standing work-around.

Multiple threads could be writing to alua_access_state at the same time, or there could be multiple STPGs in flight (different initiators sending them or one initiator sending them to different ports), or a combo of both and the core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt calls will race with each other. Because from the last patches we no longer delay running core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work, there does not seem to be any point in running that in a workqueue. And, we always wait for it to complete one way or another, so we can sleep in this code path. So, this patch made over target-pending just adds a mutex and does the work core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work was doing in core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt. There is also no need to use an atomic for the tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state. In core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt we will test and set it under the transition mutex. And, it is a int/32 bits so in the other places where it is read, we will never see it partially updated.

We pre-allocate our send-queues and might overflow them in case we have multi work-request operations which tend to occur for large RDMA transfers over devices with limited allowed sg elements. When we get to a queue-full condition we might retry again later, so track our receive buffers so we don't repost them for a retry case.

This patch addresses two queue-full handling bugs in iser-target. The first is propagating isert_rdma_rw_ctx_post() return back to target-core via isert_put_datain() + isert_get_dataout() callbacks, in order to trigger queue-full logic in target-core. Note target-core expects -EAGAIN or -ENOMEM error to signal RDMA WRITE/READ data-transfer callbacks should be retried, after queue-full logic been invoked. Other types of errors propagated up from RDMA RW API will result in target-core generating internal CHECK_CONDITION status, avoiding subsequent isert_put_datain() and isert_get_dataout() iscsit_transport callback retry attempts. The second is to use transport_generic_request_failure() during T10-PI hw-offload errors in isert_rdma_write_done() and isert_rdma_read_done(), so CHECK_CONDITION queue-full is handled internally by target-core. Also add isert_put_response() T10-PI failure case fixme in isert_rdma_write_done(), which is currently not internally retried or released until session reinstatement.

This patch fixes a set of queue-full response handling bugs, where outgoing responses are leaked when a fabric driver is propagating non -EAGAIN or -ENOMEM errors to target-core. It introduces TRANSPORT_COMPLETE_QF_ERR state used to signal when CHECK_CONDITION status should be generated, when fabric driver ->write_pending(), ->queue_data_in(), or ->queue_status() callbacks fail with non -EAGAIN or -ENOMEM errors, and data-transfer should not be retried. Note all fabric driver -EAGAIN and -ENOMEM errors are still retried indefinately with associated data-transfer callbacks, following existing queue-full logic. Also fix two missing ->queue_status() queue-full cases related to CMD_T_ABORTED w/ TAS status handling.

The t_data_nents and t_bidi_data_nents are the numbers of the segments, but it couldn't be sure the block size equals to size of the segment. For the worst case, all the blocks are discontiguous and there will need the same number of iovecs, that's to say: blocks == iovs. So here just set the number of iovs to block count needed by tcmu cmd.

If there has BIDI data, its first iov[] will overwrite the last iov[] for se_cmd->t_data_sg. To fix this, we can just increase the iov pointer, but this may introuduce a new memory leakage bug: If the se_cmd->data_length and se_cmd->t_bidi_data_sg->length are all not aligned up to the DATA_BLOCK_SIZE, the actual length needed maybe larger than just sum of them. So, this could be avoided by rounding all the data lengthes up to DATA_BLOCK_SIZE.

This patch closes a race between se_lun deletion during configfs unlink in target_fabric_port_unlink() -> core_dev_del_lun() -> 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->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->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->lun_se_dev, but the same race still exists. To address the bug, go ahead and set se_lun>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.

This patch fixes a iscsi-target specific TMR reference leak during session shutdown, that could occur when a TMR was quiesced before the hand-off back to iscsi-target code via transport_cmd_check_stop_to_fabric(). The reference leak happens because iscsit_free_cmd() was incorrectly skipping the final target_put_sess_cmd() for TMRs when transport_generic_free_cmd() returned zero because the se_cmd->cmd_kref did not reach zero, due to the missing se_cmd assignment in original code. The result was iscsi_cmd and it's associated se_cmd memory would be freed once se_sess->sess_cmd_map where released, but the associated se_tmr_req was leaked and remained part of se_device->dev_tmr_list. This bug would manfiest itself as kernel paging request OOPsen in core_tmr_lun_reset(), when a left-over se_tmr_req attempted to dereference it's se_cmd pointer that had already been released during normal session shutdown. To address this bug, go ahead and treat ISCSI_OP_SCSI_CMD and ISCSI_OP_SCSI_TMFUNC the same when there is an extra se_cmd->cmd_kref to drop in iscsit_free_cmd(), and use op_scsi to signal __iscsit_free_cmd() when the former needs to clear any further iscsi related I/O state.

Instead of putting cmd_time_out under ../target/core/user_0/foo/control, which has historically been used by parameters needed for initial backend device configuration, go ahead and move cmd_time_out into a backend device attribute. In order to do this, tcmu_module_init() has been updated to create a local struct configfs_attribute **tcmu_attrs, that is based upon the existing passthrough_attrib_attrs along with the new cmd_time_out attribute. Once **tcm_attrs has been setup, go ahead and point it at tcmu_ops->tb_dev_attrib_attrs so it's picked up by target-core. Also following MNC's previous change, ->cmd_time_out is stored in milliseconds but exposed via configfs in seconds. Also, note this patch restricts the modification of ->cmd_time_out to before + after the TCMU device has been configured, but not while it has active fabric exports.

This fixes the following races: 1. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt could have read tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state and gone into this if chunk: if (!explicit && atomic_read(&tg_pt_gp->tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state) == ALUA_ACCESS_STATE_TRANSITION) { and then core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work could update the state. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt would then only set tg_pt_gp_alua_pending_state and the tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state would not get updated with the second calls state. 2. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt could be setting tg_pt_gp_transition_complete while the tg_pt_gp_transition_work is already completing. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt then waits on the completion that will never be called. To handle these issues, we just call flush_work which will return when core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work has completed so there is no need to do the complete/wait. And, if core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work was running, instead of trying to sneak in the state change, we just schedule up another core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work call. Note that this does not handle a possible race where there are multiple threads call core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt at the same time. I think we need a mutex in target_tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state_store. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <mchristi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>

If tcmu-runner is processing a STPG and needs to change the kernel's ALUA state then we cannot use the same work queue for task management requests and ALUA transitions, because we could deadlock. The problem occurs when a STPG times out before tcmu-runner is able to call into target_tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state_store-> core_alua_do_port_transition -> core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt -> queue_work. In this case, the tmr is on the work queue waiting for the STPG to complete, but the STPG transition is now queued behind the waiting tmr. Note: This bug will also be fixed by this patch: http://www.spinics.net/lists/target-devel/msg14560.html which switches the tmr code to use the system workqueues. For both, I am not sure if we need a dedicated workqueue since it is not a performance path and I do not think we need WQ_MEM_RECLAIM to make forward progress to free up memory like the block layer does.

This patch allows passthrough backends to use the core/base LIO ALUA setup and state checks, but still handle the execution of commands. This will allow the target_core_user module to execute STPG and RTPG in userspace, and not have to duplicate the ALUA state checks, path information (needed so we can check if command is executable on specific paths) and setup (rtslib sets/updates the configfs ALUA interface like it does for iblock or file). For STPG, the target_core_user userspace daemon, tcmu-runner will still execute the STPG, and to update the core/base LIO state it will use the existing configfs interface. For RTPG, tcmu-runner will loop over configfs and/or cache the state. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <mchristi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>
