4.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sagi Grimberg <sagig@xxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 524630d5824c7a75aab568c6bd1423fd748cd3bb upstream. iser connection termination process happens in 2 stages: - isert_wait_conn: - resumes rdma disconnect - wait for session commands - wait for flush completions (post a marked wr to signal we are done) - wait for logout completion - queue work for connection cleanup (depends on disconnected/timewait events) - isert_free_conn - last reference put on the connection In case we are terminating during IOs, we might be posting send/recv requests after we posted the last work request which might lead to a use-after-free condition in isert_handle_wc. After we posted the last wr in isert_wait_conn we are guaranteed that no successful completions will follow (meaning no new work request posts may happen) but other flush errors might still come. So before we put the last reference on the connection, we repeat the process of posting a marked work request (isert_wait4flush) in order to make sure all pending completions were flushed.
