commit 197b806ae5db60c6f609d74da04ddb62ea5e1b00 upstream. While testing modification of per se_node_acl queue_depth forcing session reinstatement via lio_target_nacl_cmdsn_depth_store() -> core_tpg_set_initiator_node_queue_depth(), a hung task bug triggered when changing cmdsn_depth invoked session reinstatement while an iscsi login was already waiting for session reinstatement to complete. This can happen when an outstanding se_cmd descriptor is taking a long time to complete, and session reinstatement from iscsi login or cmdsn_depth change occurs concurrently. To address this bug, explicitly set session_fall_back_to_erl0 = 1 when forcing session reinstatement, so session reinstatement is not attempted if an active session is already being shutdown. This patch has been tested with two scenarios. The first when iscsi login is blocked waiting for iscsi session reinstatement to complete followed by queue_depth change via configfs, and second when queue_depth change via configfs us blocked followed by a iscsi login driven session reinstatement. Note this patch depends on commit d36ad77f702 to handle multiple sessions per se_node_acl when changing cmdsn_depth, and for pre v4.5 kernels will need to be included for stable as well.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
