This fixes the following races: 1. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt could have read tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state and gone into this if chunk: if (!explicit && atomic_read(&tg_pt_gp->tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state) == ALUA_ACCESS_STATE_TRANSITION) { and then core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work could update the state. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt would then only set tg_pt_gp_alua_pending_state and the tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state would not get updated with the second calls state. 2. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt could be setting tg_pt_gp_transition_complete while the tg_pt_gp_transition_work is already completing. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt then waits on the completion that will never be called. To handle these issues, we just call flush_work which will return when core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work has completed so there is no need to do the complete/wait. And, if core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work was running, instead of trying to sneak in the state change, we just schedule up another core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work call. Note that this does not handle a possible race where there are multiple threads call core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt at the same time. I think we need a mutex in target_tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state_store. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <mchristi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> |

README
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.
