[PATCH for 3.8 v3, resend 3/3] IB/srp: Avoid endless SCSI error handling loop

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If a SCSI command times out it is passed to the SCSI error
handler. The SCSI error handler will try to abort the commands
that timed out. If aborting failed a device reset will be
attempted. If the device reset also fails a host reset will
be attempted. If the host reset also fails the whole procedure
will be repeated.

srp_abort() and srp_reset_device() fail for a QP in the error
state. srp_reset_host() fails after host removal has started.
Hence if the SCSI error handler gets invoked after host removal
has started and with the QP in the error state an endless loop
will be triggered.

Modify the SCSI error handling functions in ib_srp as follows:
- Abort SCSI commands properly even if the QP is in the error
  state.
- Make srp_reset_host() reset SCSI requests even after host
  removal has already started or if reconnecting fails.
