[ Upstream commit 2a737d3b8c792400118d6cf94958f559de9c5e59 ] The tpg->np_login_sem is a semaphore that is used to serialize the login process when multiple login threads run concurrently against the same target portal group. The iscsi_target_locate_portal() function finds the tpg, calls iscsit_access_np() against the np_login_sem semaphore and saves the tpg pointer in conn->tpg; If iscsi_target_locate_portal() fails, the caller will check for the conn->tpg pointer and, if it's not NULL, then it will assume that iscsi_target_locate_portal() called iscsit_access_np() on the semaphore. Make sure that conn->tpg gets initialized only if iscsit_access_np() was successful, otherwise iscsit_deaccess_np() may end up being called against a semaphore we never took, allowing more than one thread to access the same tpg.

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.
