6.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit c3326a61cdbf3ce1273d9198b6cbf90965d7e029 upstream. We introduced a helper function to be used by non-cifsd threads to mark the connection for reconnect. For multichannel, when only a particular channel needs to be reconnected, this had a bug. This change fixes that by marking that particular channel for reconnect. Fixes: dca65818c80c ("cifs: use a different reconnect helper for non-cifsd threads") Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Shyam Prasad N <sprasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Paulo Alcantara (SUSE) <pc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Steve French <stfrench@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- fs/smb/client/connect.c | 9 +++++---- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) --- a/fs/smb/client/connect.c +++ b/fs/smb/client/connect.c @@ -156,13 +156,14 @@ cifs_signal_cifsd_for_reconnect(struct T /* If server is a channel, select the primary channel */ pserver = CIFS_SERVER_IS_CHAN(server) ? server->primary_server : server; - spin_lock(&pserver->srv_lock); + /* if we need to signal just this channel */ if (!all_channels) { - pserver->tcpStatus = CifsNeedReconnect; - spin_unlock(&pserver->srv_lock); + spin_lock(&server->srv_lock); + if (server->tcpStatus != CifsExiting) + server->tcpStatus = CifsNeedReconnect; + spin_unlock(&server->srv_lock); return; } - spin_unlock(&pserver->srv_lock); spin_lock(&cifs_tcp_ses_lock); list_for_each_entry(ses, &pserver->smb_ses_list, smb_ses_list) {
