Subject: [PATCH] scsi: message: fusion: Fix a possible data race in mpt_ioc_reset()
The variable ioc->taskmgmt_quiesce_io is often protected by the lock
ioc->taskmgmt_lock when is accessed. Here is an example in
mpt_SoftResetHandler():
spin_lock_irqsave(&ioc->taskmgmt_lock, flags);
...
ioc->taskmgmt_quiesce_io = 0;
...
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&ioc->taskmgmt_lock, flags);
However, ioc->taskmgmt_quiesce_io is set to 1 without holding the lock
ioc->taskmgmt_lock in mpt_ioc_reset():
case MPT_IOC_SETUP_RESET:
ioc->taskmgmt_quiesce_io = 1;
In my opinion, this may be a harmful race, because the value of
ioc->taskmgmt_quiesce_io can be rewritten by mpt_ioc_reset() when another
thread is accessing it.
To fix this possible data race, a lock and unlock pair is added when
accessing the variable ioc->taskmgmt_quiesce_io.
