scsi: use dma_get_cache_alignment() as minimum DMA alignment

2018-03-03T15:50:38Z

commit 90addc6b3c9cda0146fbd62a08e234c2b224a80c upstream. In non-coherent DMA mode, kernel uses cache flushing operations to maintain I/O coherency, so scsi's block queue should be aligned to the value returned by dma_get_cache_alignment(). Otherwise, If a DMA buffer and a kernel structure share a same cache line, and if the kernel structure has dirty data, cache_invalidate (no writeback) will cause data corruption.

Defer processing of REQ_PREEMPT requests for blocked devices

2015-05-09T22:16:35Z

commit bba0bdd7ad4713d82338bcd9b72d57e9335a664b upstream. SCSI transport drivers and SCSI LLDs block a SCSI device if the transport layer is not operational. This means that in this state no requests should be processed, even if the REQ_PREEMPT flag has been set. This patch avoids that a rescan shortly after a cable pull sporadically triggers the following kernel oops: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc9001a6bc084 IP: [] mlx4_ib_post_send+0xd2/0xb30 [mlx4_ib] Process rescan-scsi-bus (pid: 9241, threadinfo ffff88053484a000, task ffff880534aae100) Call Trace: [] srp_post_send+0x65/0x70 [ib_srp] [] srp_queuecommand+0x1cf/0x3e0 [ib_srp] [] scsi_dispatch_cmd+0x101/0x280 [scsi_mod] [] scsi_request_fn+0x411/0x4d0 [scsi_mod] [] __blk_run_queue+0x27/0x30 [] blk_execute_rq_nowait+0x82/0x110 [] blk_execute_rq+0x62/0xf0 [] scsi_execute+0xe8/0x190 [scsi_mod] [] scsi_execute_req+0xa3/0x130 [scsi_mod] [] scsi_probe_lun+0x17a/0x450 [scsi_mod] [] scsi_probe_and_add_lun+0x156/0x480 [scsi_mod] [] __scsi_scan_target+0xdf/0x1f0 [scsi_mod] [] scsi_scan_host_selected+0x183/0x1c0 [scsi_mod] [] scsi_scan+0xdb/0xe0 [scsi_mod] [] store_scan+0x13/0x20 [scsi_mod] [] sysfs_write_file+0xcb/0x160 [] vfs_write+0xce/0x140 [] sys_write+0x53/0xa0 [] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b [<00007f611c9d9300>] 0x7f611c9d92ff Reported-by: Max Gurtuvoy Signed-off-by: Bart Van Assche Reviewed-by: Mike Christie Signed-off-by: James Bottomley Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

scsi: handle flush errors properly

2014-09-13T22:41:38Z

commit 89fb4cd1f717a871ef79fa7debbe840e3225cd54 upstream. Flush commands don't transfer data and thus need to be special cased in the I/O completion handler so that we can propagate errors to the block layer and filesystem.

Stop accepting SCSI requests before removing a device

2014-07-11T12:33:55Z

commit b485462aca7df4e32bcf7efb6f84a69e8b640243 upstream. Avoid that the code for requeueing SCSI requests triggers a crash by making sure that that code isn't scheduled anymore after a device has been removed. Also, source code inspection of __scsi_remove_device() revealed a race condition in this function: no new SCSI requests must be accepted for a SCSI device after device removal started.

Avoid dangling pointer in scsi_requeue_command()

2012-08-02T13:37:55Z

commit 940f5d47e2f2e1fa00443921a0abf4822335b54d upstream. When we call scsi_unprep_request() the command associated with the request gets destroyed and therefore drops its reference on the device. If this was the only reference, the device may get released and we end up with a NULL pointer deref when we call blk_requeue_request.

Fix device removal NULL pointer dereference

2012-08-02T13:37:54Z

commit 67bd94130015c507011af37858989b199c52e1de upstream. Use blk_queue_dead() to test whether the queue is dead instead of !sdev. Since scsi_prep_fn() may be invoked concurrently with __scsi_remove_device(), keep the queuedata (sdev) pointer in __scsi_remove_device(). This patch fixes a kernel oops that can be triggered by USB device removal. See also http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg56254.html. Other changes included in this patch: - Swap the blk_cleanup_queue() and kfree() calls in scsi_host_dev_release() to make that code easier to grasp. - Remove the queue dead check from scsi_run_queue() since the queue state can change anyway at any point in that function where the queue lock is not held. - Remove the queue dead check from the start of scsi_request_fn() since it is redundant with the scsi_device_online() check.

Fix dm-multipath starvation when scsi host is busy

2012-06-10T13:41:34Z

commit b7e94a1686c5daef4f649f7f4f839cc294f07710 upstream. block congestion control doesn't have any concept of fairness across multiple queues. This means that if SCSI reports the host as busy in the queue congestion control it can result in an unfair starvation situation in dm-mp if there are multiple multipath devices on the same host. For example: http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2012-May/msg00123.html The fix for this is to report only the sdev busy state (and ignore the host busy state) in the block congestion control call back. The host is still congested, but the SCSI subsystem will sort out the congestion in a fair way because it knows the relation between the queues and the host.

[SCSI] Silencing 'killing requests for dead queue'

2011-11-09T18:07:07Z

When we tear down a device we try to flush all outstanding commands in scsi_free_queue(). However the check in scsi_request_fn() is imperfect as it only signals that we _might start_ aborting commands, not that we've actually aborted some. So move the printk inside the scsi_kill_request function, this will also give us a hint about which commands are aborted. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke Signed-off-by: James Bottomley
