This does seem to make the list corruption go away.

Thanks for the test feedback.

This patch is queued in target-pending/master.

I increased the
session count to ~120 doing login/logout loop and at some point I am in
a point where I have 16066 iscsi_ttx and 16064 iscsi_trx threads
causing me to fail any other kthread creation (see dump_stack).

For some reason the iscsi extra thread sets are not cleaned up well
and/or not reused from inactive list...


Please revert commit 72859d91, as it's incorrect per your earlier
comments wrt iscsit_close_connection() never being called more than once
during explicit shutdown.

This reproduces with commit 72859d91 reverted.

As per the off-list discussion, here's the long overdue patch to avoid
thread_sets all together, and just perform kthread creation + deletion
at login + shutdown time instead re-using existing kthreads across
different connections.

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending.git/commit/?id=7a7625e6ecbfc60826fb96a75dc2891b7145176e

So far it's surviving initial login/logout + /etc/init.d/target restart
tests with ISCSI_TCP.

Please have a look.


Any feedback on this patch to do kthread_run + kthread_stop at
connection creation + deletion time, to avoid the iscsi_target_tq.c
stuff all-together..?


Sorry but I didn't get a chance to look at this and it will have to wait
for after LSF :(  sorry. I'll get in touch with Slava and see if he has
time to start testing this patch next week.

I'd really like to get some test-feedback on this one with iser-target,
and traditional iscsi-target too if possible.

Of course...
