scsi: iscsi: Fix conn cleanup and stop race during iscsid restart
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
If iscsid is doing a stop_conn at the same time the kernel is starting
error recovery we can hit a race that allows the cleanup work to run on a
valid connection. In the race, iscsi_if_stop_conn sees the cleanup bit set,
but it calls flush_work on the clean_work before iscsi_conn_error_event has
queued it. The flush then returns before the queueing and so the
cleanup_work can run later and disconnect/stop a conn while it's in a
connected state.

The patch:

Commit 0ab7104 ("scsi: iscsi: Perform connection failure entirely in
kernel space")

added the late stop_conn call bug originally, and the patch:

Commit 23d6fef ("scsi: iscsi: Fix in-kernel conn failure handling")

attempted to fix it but only fixed the normal EH case and left the above
race for the iscsid restart case. For the normal EH case we don't hit the
race because we only signal userspace to start recovery after we have done
the queueing, so the flush will always catch the queued work or see it
completed.

For iscsid restart cases like boot, we can hit the race because iscsid will
call down to the kernel before the kernel has signaled any error, so both
code paths can be running at the same time. This adds a lock around the
setting of the cleanup bit and queueing so they happen together.
