This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: libiscsi: Fix iscsi_prep_scsi_cmd_pdu() error handling to the 4.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: scsi-libiscsi-fix-iscsi_prep_scsi_cmd_pdu-error-hand.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 365df0068bafc2bb4ef7b6b66c5a3bbf973bfb1d Author: Mike Christie <michael.christie@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Feb 6 22:46:00 2021 -0600 scsi: libiscsi: Fix iscsi_prep_scsi_cmd_pdu() error handling [ Upstream commit d28d48c699779973ab9a3bd0e5acfa112bd4fdef ] If iscsi_prep_scsi_cmd_pdu() fails we try to add it back to the cmdqueue, but we leave it partially setup. We don't have functions that can undo the pdu and init task setup. We only have cleanup_task which can clean up both parts. So this has us just fail the cmd and go through the standard cleanup routine and then have the SCSI midlayer retry it like is done when it fails in the queuecommand path.
