The iSCSI target login thread might get stuck with the following stack:
cat /proc/`pidof iscsi_np`/stack
[<0>] down_interruptible+0x42/0x50
[<0>] iscsit_access_np+0xe3/0x167
[<0>] iscsi_target_locate_portal+0x695/0x8ac
[<0>] __iscsi_target_login_thread+0x855/0xb82
[<0>] iscsi_target_login_thread+0x2f/0x5a
[<0>] kthread+0xfa/0x130
[<0>] ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30
This can be reproduced via the following steps:
1. Initiator A tries to log in to iqn1-tpg1 on port 3260. After finishing
PDU exchange in the login thread and before the negotiation is finished
the the network link goes down. At this point A has not finished login
and tpg->np_login_sem is held.
2. Initiator B tries to log in to iqn2-tpg1 on port 3260. After finishing
PDU exchange in the login thread the target expects to process remaining
login PDUs in workqueue context.
3. Initiator A' tries to log in to iqn1-tpg1 on port 3260 from a new
socket. A' will wait for tpg->np_login_sem with np->np_login_timer
loaded to wait for at most 15 seconds. The lock is held by A so A'
eventually times out.
4. Before A' got timeout initiator B gets negotiation failed and calls
iscsi_target_login_drop()->iscsi_target_login_sess_out(). The
np->np_login_timer is canceled and initiator A' will hang forever.
Because A' is now in the login thread, no new login requests can be
serviced.
Fix this by moving iscsi_stop_login_thread_timer() out of
iscsi_target_login_sess_out(). Also remove iscsi_np parameter from
iscsi_target_login_sess_out().
