Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.

In iscsi_if_rx func, after receiving one request through
iscsi_if_recv_msg func, iscsi_if_send_reply will be called to try to
reply to the request in a do-while loop. If the iscsi_if_send_reply
function keeps returning -EAGAIN, a deadlock will occur.
For example, a client only send msg without calling recvmsg func, then
it will result in the watchdog soft lockup. The details are given as
follows:
sock_fd = socket(AF_NETLINK, SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_ISCSI);
retval = bind(sock_fd, (struct sock addr*) & src_addr, sizeof(src_addr);
while (1) {
state_msg = sendmsg(sock_fd, &msg, 0);
//Note: recvmsg(sock_fd, &msg, 0) is not processed here.
}
close(sock_fd);

The discovering of sas port is driven by workqueue in libsas. When libsas
is processing port events or phy events in workqueue, new events may rise
up and change the state of some structures such as asd_sas_phy. This may
cause some problems such as follows:
==>thread 1 ==>thread 2
==>phy up
==>phy_up_v3_hw()
==>oob_mode = SATA_OOB_MODE;
==>phy down quickly
==>hisi_sas_phy_down()
==>sas_ha->notify_phy_event()
==>sas_phy_disconnected()
==>oob_mode = OOB_NOT_CONNECTED
==>workqueue wakeup
==>sas_form_port()
==>sas_discover_domain()
==>sas_get_port_device()
==>oob_mode is OOB_NOT_CONNECTED and device
is wrongly taken as expander
This at last lead to the panic when libsas trying to issue a command to
discover the device.

Considering there can be multiple UFS hosts in SoC, give each ufs-bsg an
unique ID by appending the scsi host number to its device name.

PORT UPDATE asynchronous event is generated on the host that issues PLOGI
ELS (in the case of higher WWPN). In that case, the event shouldn't be
handled as it sets unwanted DPC flags (i.e. LOOP_RESYNC_NEEDED) that
trigger link flap.
Ignore the event if the host has higher WWPN, but handle otherwise.

qla2x00_configure_local_loop sets RELOGIN_NEEDED bit and calls
qla24xx_fcport_handle_login to perform the login. This bit triggers a wake
up of DPC later after a successful login.
The deferred call is not needed if login succeeds, and it's set in
qla24xx_fcport_handle_login in case of errors, hence it should be safe to
drop.
