This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: iscsi: Exclude zero from the endpoint ID range to the 5.18-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-iscsi-exclude-zero-from-the-endpoint-id-range.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.18 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 77aa3698baae035538cfc868685c282f340ba903 Author: Sergey Gorenko <sergeygo@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jun 13 15:38:54 2022 +0300 scsi: iscsi: Exclude zero from the endpoint ID range [ Upstream commit f6eed15f3ea76596ccc689331e1cc850b999133b ] The kernel returns an endpoint ID as r.ep_connect_ret.handle in the iscsi_uevent. The iscsid validates a received endpoint ID and treats zero as an error. The commit referenced in the fixes line changed the endpoint ID range, and zero is always assigned to the first endpoint ID. So, the first attempt to create a new iSER connection always fails.
