This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled target: Don't BUG_ON during NodeACL dynamic -> explicit conversion 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: target-don-t-bug_on-during-nodeacl-dynamic-explicit-conversion.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. >From 391e2a6de9781e4906dd7e0b1cc097050bf43e11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun, 23 Oct 2016 14:28:15 -0700 Subject: target: Don't BUG_ON during NodeACL dynamic -> explicit conversion From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 391e2a6de9781e4906dd7e0b1cc097050bf43e11 upstream. After the v4.2+ RCU conversion to se_node_acl->lun_entry_hlist, a BUG_ON() was added in core_enable_device_list_for_node() to detect when the located orig->se_lun_acl contains an existing se_lun_acl pointer reference. However, this scenario can happen when a dynamically generated NodeACL is being converted to an explicit NodeACL, when the explicit NodeACL contains a different LUN mapping than the default provided by the WWN endpoint. So instead of triggering BUG_ON(), go ahead and fail instead following the original pre RCU conversion logic.
