If a command with a Simple task attribute is failed due to a Unit
Attention, then a subsequent command with an Ordered task attribute will
hang forever. The reason for this is that the Unit Attention status is
checked for in target_setup_cmd_from_cdb, before the call to
target_execute_cmd, which calls target_handle_task_attr, which in turn
increments dev->simple_cmds. However, transport_generic_request_failure
still calls transport_complete_task_attr, which will decrement
dev->simple_cmds. In this case, simple_cmds is now -1. So when a
command with the Ordered task attribute is sent, target_handle_task_attr
sees that dev->simple_cmds is not 0, so it decides it can't execute the
command until all the (nonexistent) Simple commands have completed.
Thanks for reporting this bug. Comments below.
The solution I've implemented is to move target_scsi3_ua_check, as well as
target_alua_state_check and target_check_reservation, into
target_execute_cmd, after the call to target_handle_task_attr. I believe
this is actually the correct way this should be handled. According to
SAM-4 r14, under section 5.14:
"h) if a command other than INQUIRY, REPORT LUNS, REQUEST SENSE, or NOTIFY
DATA TRANSFER DEVICE enters the enabled command state while a unit
attention condition exists for the SCSI initiator port associated with
the I_T nexus on which the command was received, the device server shall
terminate the command with a CHECK CONDITION status. The device server
shall provide sense data that reports a unit attention condition for the
SCSI initiator port that sent the command on the I_T nexus."
But according to section 8.5 and 8.6, a command which is not yet executed
because of the presence of other tasks in the task set (i.e., one for
which target_handle_task_attr returns true) would not enter the enabled
command state; it would be in the dormant command state.
target_execute_cmd would get called when a command entered the enabled
command state, and thus that is the appropriate place to check for Unit
Attenion. Similarly, though not quite as explicit, section 5.3.3 tells
us that a Reservation Conflict status has a lower precedence than a Unit
Attention, and so this would also seem to be the appropriate place to
call target_check_reservation. I'm less sure about
target_alua_state_check, since I'm not very familiar with ALUA.

So AFAICT for delayed commands, the above patch ends up skipping these
three checks subsequently when doing __target_execute_cmd() directly
from target_restart_delayed_cmds(), no..?
After pondering this some more, what about moving these checks into
__target_execute_cmd() to handle both target_core_transport.c cases
instead..?
You're right, __target_execute_cmd is clearly the right place for the
checks.
We'll also need a parameter for internal COMPARE_AND_WRITE usage
within compare_and_write_callback(), to bypass checks upon secondary
->execute_cmd() WRITE payload submission after READ + COMPARE has
completed successfully.
I'm still learning about the target code, and I was unaware of
COMPARE_AND_WRITE. Thanks for pointing this out to me. You're right
here too, we need to make sure we only make the tests when the Compare
and Write is first executed (to do the read), and not later when the
write is done.
WDYT..?
You've covered all the places that call __target_execute_cmd, so I think
it's good.
