      [SCSI] SCSI core: fix leakage of scsi_cmnd's · e91442b6
      由 James Bottomley 提交于 
      From: 	Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

This patch (as559b) adds a new routine, scsi_unprep_request, which
gets called every place a request is requeued.  (That includes
scsi_queue_insert as well as scsi_requeue_command.)  It also changes
scsi_kill_requests to make it call __scsi_done with result equal to
DID_NO_CONNECT << 16.  (I'm not sure if it's necessary to call
scsi_init_cmd_errh here; maybe you can check on that.)  Finally, the
patch changes the return value from scsi_end_request, to avoid
returning a stale pointer in the case where the request was requeued.
Fortunately the return value is used in only place, and the change
actually simplified it.

      [SCSI] fix possible deadlock in scsi_lib.c · 286f3e13
      由 Neil Brown 提交于 
        If a filesystem, while writing out data, decides that it is good
to issue a cache flush on a SCSI drive (or other 'sd' device), it will
call blkdev_issue_flush which calls ->issue_flush_fn which is
scsi_issue_flush_fn.
This calls sd_issue_flush which calls sd_sync_cache, which calls
scsi_execute_request.
This will (as sshdr != NULL) call
    kmalloc(SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, GFP_KERNEL)

If memory is tight, the presence of GFP_KERNEL may cause write
requests to be sent to some filesystem to free up memory, however if
that filesystem is waiting for the issue_flush_fn to complete, you
could get a deadlock.

I wonder if it might be more appropriate to use GFP_NOIO as in the
following patch.

I wonder if it might be even more appropriate to cope better with a
kmalloc failure, especially as in this use, sd_sync_cache only will
use the sense information to print out a more informative error
message.

      [SCSI] fix callers of scsi_remove_device() who already hold the scan muted · 903f4fed
      由 Alan Stern 提交于 
      This patch (as544) adds a private entry point to scsi_remove_device, for
use when callers already own the scan_mutex.  The appropriate callers are
modified to use the new entry point.

      [SCSI] add missing scan mutex to scsi_scan_target() · e517d313
      由 Alan Stern 提交于 
      This patch (as543) adds a private entry point to scsi_scan_target, for use
when the caller already owns the scan_mutex, and updates the kerneldoc for
that routine (which was badly out-of-date).  It converts scsi_scan_channel
to use the new entry point.  Lastly, it modifies scsi_get_host_dev to make
it acquire the scan_mutex, necessary since the routine adds a new
scsi_device even if it doesn't do any actual scanning.
