[ Upstream commit 3ea3a256ed81f95ab0f3281a0e234b01a9cae605 ]

In case of an ib_fast_reg_mr allocation failure during iSER setup, the
machine hits a panic because iscsi_conn-&gt;dd_data is initialized
unconditionally, even when no memory is allocated (dd_size == 0).  This
leads invalid pointer dereference during connection teardown.

Fix by setting iscsi_conn-&gt;dd_data only if memory is actually allocated.

Panic trace:
------------
 iser: iser_create_fastreg_desc: Failed to allocate ib_fast_reg_mr err=-12
 iser: iser_alloc_rx_descriptors: failed allocating rx descriptors / data buffers

[ Upstream commit ec29d0ac29be366450a7faffbcf8cba3a6a3b506 ]

If we haven't done a unbind target call we can race where
iscsi_conn_teardown wakes up the EH thread and then frees the conn while
those threads are still accessing the conn ehwait.

We can only do one TMF per session so this just moves the TMF fields from
the conn to the session. We can then rely on the
iscsi_session_teardown-&gt;iscsi_remove_session-&gt;__iscsi_unbind_session call
to remove the target and it's devices, and know after that point there is
no device or scsi-ml callout trying to access the session.

There are a couple places where we could free the iscsi_cls_conn while it's
still in use. This adds some helpers to get/put a refcount on the struct
and converts an exiting user. Subsequent commits will then use the helpers
to fix 2 bugs in the eh code.

[ Upstream commit d28d48c699779973ab9a3bd0e5acfa112bd4fdef ]

If iscsi_prep_scsi_cmd_pdu() fails we try to add it back to the cmdqueue,
but we leave it partially setup. We don't have functions that can undo the
pdu and init task setup. We only have cleanup_task which can clean up both
parts. So this has us just fail the cmd and go through the standard cleanup
routine and then have the SCSI midlayer retry it like is done when it fails
in the queuecommand path.

commit ec98ea7070e94cc25a422ec97d1421e28d97b7ee upstream.

As the iSCSI parameters are exported back through sysfs, it should be
enforcing that they never are more than PAGE_SIZE (which should be more
than enough) before accepting updates through netlink.

Change all iSCSI sysfs attributes to use sysfs_emit().

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit fe0a8a95e7134d0b44cd407bc0085b9ba8d8fe31 ]

iSCSI NOPs are sometimes "lost", mistakenly sent to the user-land iscsid
daemon instead of handled in the kernel, as they should be, resulting in a
message from the daemon like:

  iscsid: Got nop in, but kernel supports nop handling.

This can occur because of the new forward- and back-locks, and the fact
that an iSCSI NOP response can occur before processing of the NOP send is
complete. This can result in "conn-&gt;ping_task" being NULL in
iscsi_nop_out_rsp(), when the pointer is actually in the process of being
set.

To work around this, we add a new state to the "ping_task" pointer. In
addition to NULL (not assigned) and a pointer (assigned), we add the state
"being set", which is signaled with an INVALID pointer (using "-1").

commit 5480e299b5ae57956af01d4839c9fc88a465eeab upstream.

Some time ago the block layer was modified such that timeout handlers are
called from thread context instead of interrupt context. Make it safe to
run the iSCSI timeout handler in thread context. This patch fixes the
following lockdep complaint:
