Subject: [PATCH] virtio-scsi: Fix the race condition in virtscsi_handle_event
Date: Mon,  5 Jan 2015 14:04:58 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1420437898-32419-1-git-send-email-famz@redhat.com> (raw)

There is a race condition in virtscsi_handle_event, when many device
hotplug/unplug events flush in quickly.

The scsi_remove_device in virtscsi_handle_transport_reset may trigger
the BUG_ON in scsi_target_reap, because the state is altered behind it,
probably by scsi_scan_host of another event. I'm able to reproduce it by
repeatedly plugging and unplugging a scsi disk with the same lun number.

To make is safe, the mutex added in struct virtio_scsi is held in
virtscsi_handle_event, so that all the events are processed in a
synchronized way. With this lock, the panic goes away.
