scsi: lpfc: fix oops/BUG in lpfc_sli_ringtxcmpl_put()
The BUG_ON() recently introduced in lpfc_sli_ringtxcmpl_put() is hit in the lpfc_els_abort() > lpfc_sli_issue_abort_iotag() > lpfc_sli_abort_iotag_issue() function path [similar names], due to 'piocb->vport == NULL': BUG_ON(!piocb || !piocb->vport); This happens because lpfc_sli_abort_iotag_issue() doesn't set the 'abtsiocbp->vport' pointer -- but this is not the problem. Previously, lpfc_sli_ringtxcmpl_put() accessed 'piocb->vport' only if 'piocb->iocb.ulpCommand' is neither CMD_ABORT_XRI_CN nor CMD_CLOSE_XRI_CN, which are the only possible values for lpfc_sli_abort_iotag_issue(): lpfc_sli_ringtxcmpl_put(): if ((unlikely(pring->ringno == LPFC_ELS_RING)) && (piocb->iocb.ulpCommand != CMD_ABORT_XRI_CN) && (piocb->iocb.ulpCommand != CMD_CLOSE_XRI_CN) && (!(piocb->vport->load_flag & FC_UNLOADING))) lpfc_sli_abort_iotag_issue(): if (phba->link_state >= LPFC_LINK_UP) iabt->ulpCommand = CMD_ABORT_XRI_CN; else iabt->ulpCommand = CMD_CLOSE_XRI_CN; So, this function path would not have hit this possible NULL pointer dereference before. In order to fix this regression, move the second part of the BUG_ON() check prior to the pointer dereference that it does check for. For reference, this is the stack trace observed. The problem happened because an unsolicited event was received - a PLOGI was received after our PLOGI was issued but not yet complete, so the discovery state machine goes on to sw-abort our PLOGI. kernel BUG at drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_sli.c:1326!
