The sgl is freed in the target stack in target_release_cmd_kref() before calling qlt_free_cmd() but there is an unmap of sgl in qlt_free_cmd() that causes a panic if sgl is not yet DMA unmapped: NIP dma_direct_unmap_sg+0xdc/0x180 LR dma_direct_unmap_sg+0xc8/0x180 Call Trace: ql_dbg_prefix+0x68/0xc0 [qla2xxx] (unreliable) dma_unmap_sg_attrs+0x54/0xf0 qlt_unmap_sg.part.19+0x54/0x1c0 [qla2xxx] qlt_free_cmd+0x124/0x1d0 [qla2xxx] tcm_qla2xxx_release_cmd+0x4c/0xa0 [tcm_qla2xxx] target_put_sess_cmd+0x198/0x370 [target_core_mod] transport_generic_free_cmd+0x6c/0x1b0 [target_core_mod] tcm_qla2xxx_complete_free+0x6c/0x90 [tcm_qla2xxx] The sgl may be left unmapped in error cases of response sending. For instance, qlt_rdy_to_xfer() maps sgl and exits when session is being deleted keeping the sgl mapped. This patch removes use-after-free of the sgl and ensures that the sgl is unmapped for any command that was not sent to firmware.

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.
