iscsi-target: Fix missed wakeup race in TX thread

2012-11-01T07:38:44Z

The sleeping code in iscsi_target_tx_thread() is susceptible to the classic missed wakeup race: - TX thread finishes handle_immediate_queue() and handle_response_queue(), thinks both queues are empty. - Another thread adds a queue entry and does wake_up_process(), which does nothing because the TX thread is still awake. - TX thread does schedule_timeout() and sleeps forever. In practice this can kill an iSCSI connection if for example an initiator does single-threaded writes and the target misses the wakeup window when queueing an R2T; in this case the connection will be stuck until the initiator loses patience and does some task management operation (or kills the connection entirely). Fix this by converting to wait_event_interruptible(), which does not suffer from this sort of race.

Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending

2012-10-10T10:52:19Z

Pull scsi target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "Things have been calm for the most part with no new fabric drivers in flight for v3.7 (we're up to eight now !), so this update is primarily focused on addressing a few long-standing items within target-core and iscsi-target fabric code. The highlights include: - target: Simplify fabric sense data length handling (roland) - qla2xxx: Fix endianness of task management response code (roland) - target: fix truncation of mode data, support zero allocation length (paolo) - target: Properly support zero-length commands in normal processing path (paolo) - iscsi-target: Correctly set 0xffffffff field within ISCSI_OP_REJECT PDU (ronnie + nab) - iscsi-target: Add explicit set of cache_dynamic_acls=1 for TPG demo-mode (ronnie + nab) - target/file: Re-enable optional fd_buffered_io=1 operation (nab + hch) - iscsi-target: Add MaxXmitDataSegmenthLength forr target -> initiator MDRSL declaration (nab) - target: Add target_submit_cmd_map_sgls for SGL fabric memory passthrough (nab + hch) - tcm_loop: Convert I/O path to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls (hch + nab) - tcm_vhost: Convert I/O path to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls (nab + hch) The last series for adding a new target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() fabric caller (as requested by hch) that accepts pre-allocated SGL memory (using existing logic), along with converting tcm_loop + tcm_vhost has only been in -next for the last days, but has gotten enough review +testing and is clear enough a mechanical change that I think it's reasonable to merge for -rc1 code. Thanks again to everyone who contributed this round! Extra special thanks to Roland (PureStorage) for tracking down the qla2xxx target TMR response code endian issue, and to Paolo (Redhat) for resolving the long standing zero-length CDB issues within target-core between virtual and pSCSI backends." * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (44 commits) iscsi-target: Bump defaults for nopin_timeout + nopin_response_timeout values iscsit: proper endianess conversions iscsit: use the itt_t abstract type iscsit: add missing endianess conversion in iscsit_check_inaddr_any iscsit: remove incorrect unlock in iscsit_build_sendtargets_resp iscsit: mark various functions static target/iscsi: precedence bug in iscsit_set_dataout_sequence_values() target/usb-gadget: strlen() doesn't count the terminator target/usb-gadget: remove duplicate initialization tcm_vhost: Convert I/O path to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls target: Add control CDB READ payload zero work-around tcm_loop: Convert I/O path to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls target: Add target_submit_cmd_map_sgls for SGL fabric memory passthrough iscsi-target: Add explicit set of cache_dynamic_acls=1 for TPG demo-mode iscsi-target: Change iscsi_target_seq_pdu_list.c to honor MaxXmitDataSegmentLength iscsi-target: Add MaxXmitDataSegmentLength connection recovery check iscsi-target: Convert incoming PDU payload checks to MaxXmitDataSegmentLength iscsi-target: Enable MaxXmitDataSegmentLength operation in login path iscsi-target: Add base MaxXmitDataSegmentLength code target/file: Re-enable optional fd_buffered_io=1 operation ...

iscsi-target: Bump defaults for nopin_timeout + nopin_response_timeout values

2012-10-03T23:38:38Z

This patch increases the default for nopin_timeout to 15 seconds (wait between sending a new NopIN ping) and nopin_response_timeout to 30 seconds (wait for NopOUT response before failing the connection) in order to avoid false positives by iSCSI Initiators who are not always able (under load) to respond to NopIN echo PING requests within the current 5 second window. False positives have been observed recently using Open-iSCSI code on v3.3.x with heavy large-block READ workloads over small MTU 1 Gb/sec ports, and increasing these values to more reasonable defaults significantly reduces the possibility of false positive NopIN response timeout events under this specific workload. Historically these have been set low to initiate connection recovery as soon as possible if we don't hear a ping back, but for modern v3.x code on 1 -> 10 Gb/sec ports these new defaults make alot more sense.

iscsit: proper endianess conversions

2012-10-03T21:39:22Z

Make sure all on the wire types are use as big endian and big endian only so that sparse can verify all the conversions are done right. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger

iscsit: use the itt_t abstract type

2012-10-03T21:21:50Z

Use the special itt_t type defined by the iscsi headers and the initiator to make sure it's an opaque value. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger

iscsi-target: Add explicit set of cache_dynamic_acls=1 for TPG demo-mode

2012-10-02T20:17:34Z

We've had reports in the past about this specific case, so it's time to go ahead and explicitly set cache_dynamic_acls=1 for generate_node_acls=1 (TPG demo-mode) operation. During normal generate_node_acls=0 operation with explicit NodeACLs -> se_node_acl memory is persistent to the configfs group located at /sys/kernel/config/target/$TARGETNAME/$TPGT/acls/$INITIATORNAME, so in the generate_node_acls=1 case we want the reservation logic to reference existing per initiator IQN se_node_acl memory (not to generate a new se_node_acl), so go ahead and always set cache_dynamic_acls=1 when TPG demo-mode is enabled.
