The remote port is removed too late from fcloop_nports list. Remove it when port is unregistered. This prevents a busy loop in fcloop_exit, because it is possible the remote port is found in the list and thus we will never progress. The kernel log will be spammed with nvme_fcloop: fcloop_exit: Failed deleting remote port nvme_fcloop: fcloop_exit: Failed deleting target port Signed-off-by: Daniel Wagner <dwagner@xxxxxxx> --- drivers/nvme/target/fcloop.c | 7 ++----- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/nvme/target/fcloop.c b/drivers/nvme/target/fcloop.c index 4b35bdcac185..9f7530147893 100644 --- a/drivers/nvme/target/fcloop.c +++ b/drivers/nvme/target/fcloop.c @@ -995,11 +995,6 @@ fcloop_nport_free(struct kref *ref) { struct fcloop_nport *nport = container_of(ref, struct fcloop_nport, ref); - unsigned long flags; - - spin_lock_irqsave(&fcloop_lock, flags); - list_del(&nport->nport_list); - spin_unlock_irqrestore(&fcloop_lock, flags); kfree(nport); } @@ -1357,6 +1352,8 @@ __unlink_remote_port(struct fcloop_nport *nport) nport->tport->remoteport = NULL; nport->rport = NULL; + list_del(&nport->nport_list); + return rport; } -- 2.41.0
