Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y 1/3] scsi: qla2xxx: Hold qpair lock when sending NVMe LS reject
Date: Fri, 11 Sep 2026 14:21:49 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260911182151.1324762-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026090902-deacon-ambiguity-eafe@gregkh>
From: Nilesh Javali <njavali@marvell.com>
[ Upstream commit f743488e4a203049f27ec5d8cd0caccc483af01e ]
qla_nvme_ls_reject_iocb() allocates from and advances the request ring
through __qla2x00_alloc_iocbs() (which assumes the hardware_lock is
held) and qla2x00_start_iocbs() (which advances the ring and rings the
request-in doorbell), but takes no lock itself. Two of its callers
invoke it without the producer lock held:
- qla_nvme_xmt_ls_rsp(), the NVMe-FC .xmt_ls_rsp transport callback, on
its error path, and
- qla2xxx_process_purls_pkt(), run from the purex work/DPC context.
Both use ha->base_qpair, whose qp_lock_ptr is hardware_lock, so they can
run concurrently with normal I/O submission on the base ring and corrupt
the ring producer state, leading to duplicated or dropped commands. The
third caller, qla2xxx_process_purls_iocb(), runs inside
qla24xx_process_response_queue() with the qpair lock already held and is
safe; that is also why the lock cannot be taken inside the helper itself
(it would recursively re-acquire hardware_lock on the response path).
Take qp_lock_ptr around the two unlocked callers and document the helper
as caller-locked. Both run in process context, so spin_lock_irqsave() is
used and nothing in the locked region sleeps.
