This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: lpfc: Fix list_add() corruption in lpfc_drain_txq() to the 5.4-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-lpfc-fix-list_add-corruption-in-lpfc_drain_txq.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d49e1cdcaa6b0a9c6bf704fc317ad3d01b5ad059 Author: James Smart <jsmart2021@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Sep 10 16:31:46 2021 -0700 scsi: lpfc: Fix list_add() corruption in lpfc_drain_txq() [ Upstream commit 99154581b05c8fb22607afb7c3d66c1bace6aa5d ] When parsing the txq list in lpfc_drain_txq(), the driver attempts to pass the requests to the adapter. If such an attempt fails, a local "fail_msg" string is set and a log message output. The job is then added to a completions list for cancellation. Processing of any further jobs from the txq list continues, but since "fail_msg" remains set, jobs are added to the completions list regardless of whether a wqe was passed to the adapter. If successfully added to txcmplq, jobs are added to both lists resulting in list corruption. Fix by clearing the fail_msg string after adding a job to the completions list. This stops the subsequent jobs from being added to the completions list unless they had an appropriate failure.
