[PATCH 4/5] bnx2fc: Check sc_cmd device and host pointer before returning the command to the mid-layer.

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

 



When we are in connection recovery and the internal command timer on a request
pops, either the scsi_cmnd->device or scsi_cmnd->device->host back pointers may
be NULL as the device that the command that the request was submitted on may
have been subsequently reaped due to the connection recovery. This can cause
one or both of the pointers above to be NULL and cause a system crash if we try
to return the command to the midlayer.

Instead, double check the pointers before the return to the midlayer so as to
prevent the crash and let the upper layers finish the session recovery and
rediscover the device.
