commit 1c21a48055a67ceb693e9c2587824a8de60a217c upstream.

This patch fixes bug where early se_cmd exceptions that occur
before backend execution can result in use-after-free if/when
a subsequent ABORT_TASK occurs for the same tag.

Since an early se_cmd exception will have had se_cmd added to
se_session-&gt;sess_cmd_list via target_get_sess_cmd(), it will
not have CMD_T_COMPLETE set by the usual target_complete_cmd()
backend completion path.

This causes a subsequent ABORT_TASK + __target_check_io_state()
to signal ABORT_TASK should proceed.  As core_tmr_abort_task()
executes, it will bring the outstanding se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref count
down to zero releasing se_cmd, after se_cmd has already been
queued with error status into fabric driver response path code.

To address this bug, introduce a CMD_T_PRE_EXECUTE bit that is
set at target_get_sess_cmd() time, and cleared immediately before
backend driver dispatch in target_execute_cmd() once CMD_T_ACTIVE
is set.

Then, check CMD_T_PRE_EXECUTE within __target_check_io_state() to
determine when an early exception has occured, and avoid aborting
this se_cmd since it will have already been queued into fabric
driver response path code.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd</id>
<content type='text'>
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

<title>iscsi-target: Fix iscsi_np reset hung task during parallel delete</title>

<id>urn:sha1:978d13d60c34818a41fc35962602bdfa5c03f214</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes a bug associated with iscsit_reset_np_thread()
that can occur during parallel configfs rmdir of a single iscsi_np
used across multiple iscsi-target instances, that would result in
hung task(s) similar to below where configfs rmdir process context
was blocked indefinately waiting for iscsi_np-&gt;np_restart_comp
to finish:

It would happen because each iscsit_reset_np_thread() sets state
to ISCSI_NP_THREAD_RESET, sends SIGINT, and then blocks waiting
for completion on iscsi_np-&gt;np_restart_comp.

However, if iscsi_np was active processing a login request and
more than a single iscsit_reset_np_thread() caller to the same
iscsi_np was blocked on iscsi_np-&gt;np_restart_comp, iscsi_np
kthread process context in __iscsi_target_login_thread() would
flush pending signals and only perform a single completion of
np-&gt;np_restart_comp before going back to sleep within transport
specific iscsit_transport-&gt;iscsi_accept_np code.

To address this bug, add a iscsi_np-&gt;np_reset_count and update
__iscsi_target_login_thread() to keep completing np-&gt;np_restart_comp
until -&gt;np_reset_count has reached zero.

This patch re-introduces part of a long standing login workaround that
was recently dropped by:

  commit 1c99de981f30b3e7868b8d20ce5479fa1c0fea46
  Author: Nicholas Bellinger &lt;nab@linux-iscsi.org&gt;
  Date:   Sun Apr 2 13:36:44 2017 -0700

      iscsi-target: Drop work-around for legacy GlobalSAN initiator

Namely, the workaround for FirstBurstLength ended up being required by
Mellanox Flexboot PXE boot ROMs as reported by Robert.

So this patch re-adds the work-around for FirstBurstLength within
iscsi_check_proposer_for_optional_reply(), and makes the key optional
to respond when the initiator does not propose, nor respond to it.

Also as requested by Arun, this patch introduces a new TPG attribute
named 'login_keys_workaround' that controls the use of both the
FirstBurstLength workaround, as well as the two other existing
workarounds for gPXE iSCSI boot client.

By default, the workaround is enabled with login_keys_workaround=1,
since Mellanox FlexBoot requires it, and Arun has verified the Qlogic
MSFT initiator already proposes FirstBurstLength, so it's uneffected
by this re-adding this part of the original work-around.

In the next patches we will add tcmu netlink support that allows
userspace to send commands to target_core_user. To execute operations
on a se_device/tcmu_dev we need to be able to look up a dev by any old
id. This patch replaces the se_device-&gt;dev_index with a idr created
id.

The next patches will also remove the g_device_list and replace it with
the idr.

With this patch free_device is now used to free what is allocated in the
alloc_device callback and destroy_device tears down the resources that are
setup in the configure_device callback.

This patch will be needed in the next patch where tcmu needs
to be able to look up the device in the destroy callback.
