The following bug was reported and debugged by wubo40@xxxxxxxxxx: When testing kernel 4.18 version, NULL pointer dereference problem occurs in iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out function. I think this bug in the upstream is still exists. The analysis reasons are as follows: 1) For some reason, I/O command did not complete within the timeout period. The block layer timer works, call scsi_times_out() to handle I/O timeout logic. At the same time the command just completes. 2) scsi_times_out() call iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out() to processing timeout logic. although there is an NULL judgment for the task, the task has not been released yet now. 3) iscsi_complete_task() call __iscsi_put_task(), The task reference count reaches zero, the conditions for free task is met, then iscsi_free_task () free the task, and let sc->SCp.ptr = NULL. After iscsi_eh_cmd_timed_out passes the task judgment check, there may be NULL dereference scenarios later.

SCp = { ptr = 0x0, <--- iscsi_task this_residual = 0, ... }, } To prevent this, we take a ref to the cmd under the back (completion) lock so if the completion side were to call iscsi_complete_task on the task while the timer/eh paths are not holding the back_lock it will not be freed from under us. Note that this requires the previous patch because bnx2i sleeps in its cleanup_task callout if the cmd is aborted. If the EH/timer and completion path are racing we don't know which path will do the last put. The previous patch moved the operations we needed to do under the forward lock to cleanup_queued_task. Once that has run we can drop the forward lock for the cmd and bnx2i no longer has to worry about if the EH, timer or completion path did the last put and if the forward lock is held or not since it won't be.
