#1366937 — [RESEND PATCH v2 0/2] Update SCSI target removal path

[resend with linux-scsi@ in Cc, my apologies]

This is a follow up to "scsi: Add intermediate STARGET_REMOVE state to 
scsi_target_state".

If anyone has an idea how to create a regression test suite for the target
removal path I'd be all ears, given the fact that this is the 3rd or 4th patch
targeting it.

Changes to v1:
* Fix error (hit BUG_ON()) discovered by the 0-Day bot.
* Revert "scsi: fix soft lockup in scsi_remove_target() on module removal"

#1366941 — [RESEND PATCH v2 2/2] scsi: Add intermediate STARGET_REMOVE state to scsi_target_state

Add intermediate STARGET_REMOVE state to scsi_target_state to avoid running
into the BUG_ON() in scsi_target_reap().

This intermediate state is only valid in the path from scsi_remove_target() to
scsi_target_destroy() indicating this target is going to be removed.

Actually, could you reverse the order of these patches, please.  It's
not safe to revert the soft lockup fix until after the intermediate
state is introduced.  I'd rather we didn't go through a point in the
tree where the bug exists again.

Thanks,

This is yet another attempt to fix 40998193560d. Can you please explain how
it is "superior" to the one proposed by Bart before [1] ?

First of all I didn't oppose Bart's patch.
But let me try explaining mine (in contrast to Bart's).

The patch above expands the current SCSI target state machine, whereas 
Bart's patch removed the target state machine and tied the target states 
to their sysfs representaion, like his patch description explains

[quote]
Instead of representing the states "visible in sysfs" and
"has been removed from the target list" by a single state
variable, use two variables to represent this information.
[/quote]

It is actually the other way round to my patch. The above expands the 
target state machine from (simplified)

CREATED -> RUNNING -> DEL
         \_____________^

to:
CREATED -> RUNNING -> REMOVE -> DEL
         \_______________________^

This intermediate step ensures that scsi_target_reap() is not called 
with a target in the STARGET_DEL state (which causes the BUG_ON() to 
trigger).

As said above, both patches do the same (eliminate the race in the 
target removal path) but differently.

I hope I could answer your questions.

Byte,
     Johannes
