For the error path, I think you could also move the cancel_delayed_work_sync from them and put it in here. If we leave it to the callers, in iscsi_target_do_login_rx in the "goto err" handling should this be reversed and do you want to use the _sync call like above? iscsi_target_restore_sock_callbacks(conn); cancel_delayed_work(&conn->login_work); > if (iscsi_target_do_tx_login_io(conn, > login) < 0) > return -1;
