[ Upstream commit 6f1d64b13097e85abda0f91b5638000afc5f9a06 ]

Bug report and analysis from Ding Hui.

During iSCSI session logout, if another task accesses the shost ipaddress
attr, we can get a KASAN UAF report like this:

We can easily reproduce by two tasks:
1. while :; do iscsiadm -m node --login; iscsiadm -m node --logout; done
2. while :; do cat \
/sys/devices/platform/host*/iscsi_host/host*/ipaddress; done

            iscsid              |        cat
--------------------------------+---------------------------------------
|- iscsi_sw_tcp_session_destroy |
  |- iscsi_session_teardown     |
    |- device_release           |
      |- iscsi_session_release  ||- dev_attr_show
        |- kfree                |  |- show_host_param_
                                |             ISCSI_HOST_PARAM_IPADDRESS
                                |    |- iscsi_sw_tcp_host_get_param
                                |      |- r/w tcp_sw_host-&gt;session (UAF)
  |- iscsi_host_remove          |
  |- iscsi_host_free            |

Fix the above bug by splitting the session removal into 2 parts:

 1. removal from iSCSI class which includes sysfs and removal from host
    tracking.

 2. freeing of session.

During iscsi_tcp host and session removal we can remove the session from
sysfs then remove the host from sysfs. At this point we know userspace is
not accessing the kernel via sysfs so we can free the session and host.

[ Upstream commit 891e2639deae721dc43764a44fa255890dc34313 ]

During ep_disconnect we have been doing iscsi_suspend_tx/queue to block new
I/O but every driver except cxgbi and iscsi_tcp can still get I/O from
__iscsi_conn_send_pdu() if we haven't called iscsi_conn_failure() before
ep_disconnect. This could happen if we were terminating the session, and
the logout timed out before it was even sent to libiscsi.

Fix the issue by adding a helper which reverses the bind_conn call that
allows new I/O to be queued. Drivers implementing ep_disconnect can use this
to make sure new I/O is not queued to them when handling the disconnect.

[ 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.

<title>scsi: libiscsi: Fix NOP race condition</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fe0a8a95e7134d0b44cd407bc0085b9ba8d8fe31</id>
<content type='text'>
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").

refcount_t type and corresponding API should be used instead of atomic_t
when the variable is used as a reference counter. This allows to avoid
accidental refcounter overflows that might lead to use-after-free
situations.

There's a rather long standing regression from the commit "libiscsi:
Reduce locking contention in fast path"

Depending on iSCSI target behavior, it's possible to hit the case in
iscsi_complete_task where the task is still on a pending list
(!list_empty(&amp;task-&gt;running)).  When that happens the task is removed
from the list while holding the session back_lock, but other task list
modification occur under the frwd_lock.  That leads to linked list
corruption and eventually a panicked system.

Rather than back out the session lock split entirely, in order to try
and keep some of the performance gains this patch adds another lock to
maintain the task lists integrity.

Major enterprise supported kernels have been backing out the lock split
for while now, thanks to the efforts at IBM where a lab setup has the
most reliable reproducer I've seen on this issue.  This patch has been
tested there successfully.

Instead define the timeout behavior purely based on the host_template
eh_timed_out method and wire up the existing transport implementations
in the host templates.  This also clears up the confusion that the
transport template method overrides the host template one, so some
drivers have to re-override the transport template one.

<content type='text'>
Drop the now unused reason argument from the -&gt;change_queue_depth method.
Also add a return value to scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and rename it to
scsi_change_queue_depth now that it can be used as the default
-&gt;change_queue_depth implementation.
