Tyrel Datwyler 2149aa5830 scsi: ibmvscsi: Fix potential race after loss of transport
[ Upstream commit 665e0224a3d76f36da40bd9012270fa629aa42ed ]

After a loss of transport due to an adapter migration or crash/disconnect
from the host partner there is a tiny window where we can race adjusting
the request_limit of the adapter. The request limit is atomically
increased/decreased to track the number of inflight requests against the
allowed limit of our VIOS partner.

After a transport loss we set the request_limit to zero to reflect this
state.  However, there is a window where the adapter may attempt to queue a
command because the transport loss event hasn't been fully processed yet
and request_limit is still greater than zero.  The hypercall to send the
event will fail and the error path will increment the request_limit as a
result.  If the adapter processes the transport event prior to this
increment the request_limit becomes out of sync with the adapter state and
can result in SCSI commands being submitted on the now reset connection
prior to an SRP Login resulting in a protocol violation.

Fix this race by protecting request_limit with the host lock when changing
the value via atomic_set() to indicate no transport.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
