This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled nfs/blocklayout: Don't attempt unregister for invalid block device to the 6.12-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: nfs-blocklayout-don-t-attempt-unregister-for-invalid.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.12 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 52931321544a8bd6473f22eaf886ba076342e536 Author: Benjamin Coddington <bcodding@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Nov 22 10:11:11 2024 -0500 nfs/blocklayout: Don't attempt unregister for invalid block device [ Upstream commit 3a4ce14d9a6b868e0787e4582420b721c04ee41e ] Since commit d869da91cccb ("nfs/blocklayout: Fix premature PR key unregistration") an unmount of a pNFS SCSI layout-enabled NFS may dereference a NULL block_device in: bl_unregister_scsi+0x16/0xe0 [blocklayoutdriver] bl_free_device+0x70/0x80 [blocklayoutdriver] bl_free_deviceid_node+0x12/0x30 [blocklayoutdriver] nfs4_put_deviceid_node+0x60/0xc0 [nfsv4] nfs4_deviceid_purge_client+0x132/0x190 [nfsv4] unset_pnfs_layoutdriver+0x59/0x60 [nfsv4] nfs4_destroy_server+0x36/0x70 [nfsv4] nfs_free_server+0x23/0xe0 [nfs] deactivate_locked_super+0x30/0xb0 cleanup_mnt+0xba/0x150 task_work_run+0x59/0x90 syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x217/0x220 do_syscall_64+0x8e/0x160 This happens because even though we were able to create the nfs4_deviceid_node, the lookup for the device was unable to attach the block device to the pnfs_block_dev. If we never found a block device to register, we can avoid this case with the PNFS_BDEV_REGISTERED flag. Move the deref behind the test for the flag.
