[SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix potential lockup with write commands
There is a race condition in iscsi_tcp.c that may cause it to forget that it received a R2T from the target. This race may cause a data-out command (such as a write) to lock up. The race occurs here: static int iscsi_send_unsol_pdu(struct iscsi_conn *conn, struct iscsi_cmd_task *ctask) { struct iscsi_tcp_cmd_task *tcp_ctask = ctask->dd_data; int rc; if (tcp_ctask->xmstate & XMSTATE_UNS_HDR) { BUG_ON(!ctask->unsol_count); tcp_ctask->xmstate &= ~XMSTATE_UNS_HDR; <---- RACE ... static int iscsi_r2t_rsp(struct iscsi_conn *conn, struct iscsi_cmd_task *ctask) { ... tcp_ctask->xmstate |= XMSTATE_SOL_HDR_INIT; <---- RACE ... While iscsi_xmitworker() (called from scsi_queue_work()) is preparing to send unsolicited data, iscsi_tcp_data_recv() (called from tcp_read_sock()) interrupts it upon receipt of a R2T from the target. Both contexts do read-modify-write of tcp_ctask->xmstate. Usually, gcc on x86 will make &= and |= atomic on UP (not guaranteed of course), but in this case iscsi_send_unsol_pdu() reads the value of xmstate before clearing the bit, which causes gcc to read xmstate into a CPU register, test it, clear the bit, and then store it back to memory. If the recv interrupt happens during this sequence, then the XMSTATE_SOL_HDR_INIT bit set by the recv interrupt will be lost, and the R2T will be forgotten. The patch below (against 2.6.24-rc1) converts accesses of xmstate to use set_bit, clear_bit, and test_bit instead of |= and &=. I have tested this patch and verified that it fixes the problem. Another possible approach would be to hold a lock during most of the rx/tx setup and post-processing, and drop the lock only for the actual rx/tx.
