Subject: [PATCH] nvmet-fcloop: fail LS request synchronously when remote port is gone
Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2026 23:38:04 +0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260920163804.67858-1-ngocthang2710.1999@gmail.com> (raw)
fcloop_t2h_ls_req() handles a missing remoteport by queueing the request
on tport->ls_list and completing it with -ECONNREFUSED from a work item.
nvmet_fc_delete_assoc_work() sends the Disconnect Association LS this
way. When it runs during nvmet_fc_unregister_targetport(), the work is
queued after flush_workqueue() has started, so it is not waited for.
nvmet_fc_free_pending_reqs() then frees the still-pending lsop and the
late work item calls lsreq->done() on freed memory:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in fcloop_rport_lsrqst_work+0x242/0x2e0
Workqueue: nvmet-wq fcloop_tport_lsrqst_work
Allocated by nvmet_fc_xmt_disconnect_assoc
Freed by nvmet_fc_free_pending_reqs
nvmet_fc_unregister_targetport
fcloop_delete_target_port
Return -ECONNREFUSED directly instead. __nvmet_fc_send_ls_req() unwinds
and nvmet_fc_xmt_disconnect_assoc() frees the lsop, so no completion is
left outstanding.
