<content type='text'>
The conn_send_pdu API is evil in that it returns a pointer to an
iscsi_task, but that task might have been freed already so you can't touch
it. This patch splits the task allocation and transmission, so functions
like iscsi_send_nopout() can access the task before its sent and do
whatever bookkeeping is needed before it is sent.

<title>scsi: iscsi: Remove iscsi_get_task back_lock requirement</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e1c6a7ec14290a0e371b09300685638f9009f2ab</id>
<content type='text'>
We currently require that the back_lock is held when calling the functions
that manipulate the iscsi_task refcount. The only reason for this is to
handle races where we are handling SCSI-ml EH callbacks and the cmd is
completing at the same time the normal completion path is running, and we
can't return from the EH callback until the driver has stopped accessing
the cmd. Holding the back_lock while also accessing the task-&gt;state made it
simple to check that a cmd is completing and also get/put a refcount at the
same time, and at the time we were not as concerned about performance.

The problem is that we don't want to take the back_lock from the xmit path
for normal I/O since it causes contention with the completion path if the
user has chosen to try and split those paths on different CPUs (in this
case abusing the CPUs and ignoring caching improves perf for some uses).

Begins to remove the back_lock requirement for iscsi_get/put_task by
removing the requirement for the get path. Instead of always holding the
back_lock we detect if something has done the last put and is about to call
iscsi_free_task(). A subsequent commit will then allow iSCSI code to do the
last put on a task and only grab the back_lock if the refcount is now zero
and it's going to call iscsi_free_task().

<title>scsi: iscsi: Fix session removal on shutdown</title>

<content type='text'>
When the system is shutting down, iscsid is not running so we will not get
a response to the ISCSI_ERR_INVALID_HOST error event. The system shutdown
will then hang waiting on userspace to remove the session.

This has libiscsi force the destruction of the session from the kernel when
iscsi_host_remove() is called from a driver's shutdown callout.

This fixes a regression added in qedi boot with commit d1f2ce77638d ("scsi:
qedi: Fix host removal with running sessions") which made qedi use the
common session removal function that waits on userspace instead of rolling
its own kernel based removal.

<id>urn:sha1:bb42856bfd54fda1cbc7c470fcf5db1596938f4f</id>
<content type='text'>
During qedi shutdown we need to stop the iSCSI layer from sending new nops
as pings and from responding to target ones and make sure there is no
running connection cleanups. Commit d1f2ce77638d ("scsi: qedi: Fix host
removal with running sessions") converted the driver to use the libicsi
helper to drive session removal, so the above issues could be handled. The
problem is that during system shutdown iscsid will not be running so when
we try to remove the root session we will hang waiting for userspace to
reply.

Add a helper that will drive the destruction of sessions like these during
system shutdown.

This function always returns 0. We can make it return void to simplify the
code. Also, no caller ever checks the return value of this function.

<content type='text'>
Similarly to sas report general and discovery responses, define the
structure struct smp_rps_resp to handle SATA PHY report responses using a
structure with a size that is exactly equal to the sas defined response
size.

With this change, struct smp_resp becomes unused and is removed.

When compiling with gcc 12, several warnings are thrown by gcc when
compiling drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c, e.g.:

In function ‘sas_get_ex_change_count’,
    inlined from ‘sas_find_bcast_dev’ at
    drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c:1816:8:
drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_expander.c:1781:20: warning: array subscript

 1781 |         if (rg_resp-&gt;result != SMP_RESP_FUNC_ACC) {
      |             ~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~

This is due to the use of the struct smp_resp to aggregate all possible
response types using a union but allocating a response buffer with a size
exactly equal to the size of the response type needed. This leads to access
to fields of struct smp_resp from an allocated memory area that is smaller
than the size of struct smp_resp.

Fix this by defining struct smp_rg_resp for sas report general responses.
