The following v3.4-rc1 commit unmasked an existing bug in scsi_io_completion's SG_IO error handling: 47ac56d [SCSI] scsi_error: classify some ILLEGAL_REQUEST sense as a permanent TARGET_ERROR Given that certain ILLEGAL_REQUEST are now properly categorized as TARGET_ERROR the host_byte is being set (before host_byte wasn't ever set for these ILLEGAL_REQUEST). In scsi_io_completion, initialize req->errors with cmd->result _after_ the SG_IO block that calls __scsi_error_from_host_byte (which may modify the host_byte). Before this fix: cdb to send: 12 01 01 00 00 00 ioctl(3, SG_IO, {'S', SG_DXFER_NONE, cmd[6]=[12, 01, 01, 00, 00, 00], mx_sb_len=32, iovec_count=0, dxfer_len=0, timeout=20000, flags=0, status=02, masked_status=01, sb[19]=[70, 00, 05, 00, 00, 00, 00, 0b, 00, 00, 00, 00, 24, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00], host_status=0x10, driver_status=0x8, resid=0, duration=0, info=0x1}) = 0 SCSI Status: Check Condition Sense Information: sense buffer empty After: cdb to send: 12 01 01 00 00 00 ioctl(3, SG_IO, {'S', SG_DXFER_NONE, cmd[6]=[12, 01, 01, 00, 00, 00], mx_sb_len=32, iovec_count=0, dxfer_len=0, timeout=20000, flags=0, status=02, masked_status=01, sb[19]=[70, 00, 05, 00, 00, 00, 00, 0b, 00, 00, 00, 00, 24, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00, 00], host_status=0, driver_status=0x8, resid=0, duration=0, info=0x1}) = 0 SCSI Status: Check Condition Sense Information: Fixed format, current; Sense key: Illegal Request Additional sense: Invalid field in cdb Raw sense data (in hex): 70 00 05 00 00 00 00 0b 00 00 00 00 24 00 00 00 00 00 00 Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@xxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx> Tested-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [v3.4+] --- drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c | 5 ++++- 1 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c b/drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c index b583277..9377ed2 100644 --- a/drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c +++ b/drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c @@ -759,7 +759,6 @@ void scsi_io_completion(struct scsi_cmnd *cmd, unsigned int good_bytes) } if (req->cmd_type == REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC) { /* SG_IO ioctl from block level */ - req->errors = result; if (result) { if (sense_valid && req->sense) { /* @@ -775,6 +774,10 @@ void scsi_io_completion(struct scsi_cmnd *cmd, unsigned int good_bytes) if (!sense_deferred) error = __scsi_error_from_host_byte(cmd, result); } + /* + * __scsi_error_from_host_byte may have reset the host_byte + */ + req->errors = cmd->result; req->resid_len = scsi_get_resid(cmd); -- 1.7.4.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
