3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 7cbfcc953789ff864c2bf8365a82a3fba4869649 upstream. This patch changes an incorrect use of BUG_ON to instead generate a REJECT + PROTOCOL_ERROR in iscsit_process_nop_out() code. This case can occur with traditional TCP where a flood of zeros in the data stream can reach this block for what is presumed to be a NOP-OUT with a solicited reply, but without a valid iscsi_cmd pointer. This incorrect BUG_ON was introduced during the v3.11-rc timeframe with the following commit: commit 778de368964c5b7e8100cde9f549992d521e9c89 Author: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jun 14 16:07:47 2013 -0700 iscsi/isert-target: Refactor ISCSI_OP_NOOP RX handling Reported-by: Arshad Hussain <arshad.hussain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target.c +++ b/drivers/target/iscsi/iscsi_target.c @@ -1564,7 +1564,9 @@ int iscsit_process_nop_out(struct iscsi_ * Initiator is expecting a NopIN ping reply.. */ if (hdr->itt != RESERVED_ITT) { - BUG_ON(!cmd); + if (!cmd) + return iscsit_add_reject(conn, ISCSI_REASON_PROTOCOL_ERROR, + (unsigned char *)hdr); spin_lock_bh(&conn->cmd_lock); list_add_tail(&cmd->i_conn_node, &conn->conn_cmd_list); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
