Add an internal_portal parameter to allow specified portals to
bypass CHAP controls for both discovery and target login. If not
populated, then the current behavior will be preserved.
Add a link_local parameter to control whether an IPv6 SendTargets
response includes link local addresses. The default is to preserve
the existing behavior and include them.
According to kernel documentation, this flag should be set if the
workqueue will be involved in the kernel's memory reclamation flow.
Since it is not, there is no need for the driver's WQ to have this
flag set so remove it.
create_workqueue() was replaced with alloc_workqueue() with max_active set
to 0. However, the original create_workqueue() implicitly set max_active
to 1.
This change has led to unexpected bugs because previously, work items
could only be executed one by one. With the change, they can now be
executed simultaneously.
This patch fixes the issue by restoring max_active to 1.

strlcpy() reads the entire source buffer first. This read may exceed the
destination size limit. This is both inefficient and can lead to linear
read overflows if a source string is not NULL-terminated [1].

Use sendmsg() conditionally with MSG_SPLICE_PAGES in write_data()
rather than calling sendpage().
Support for the following net layer changes in the Linux kernel v6.5:
- dc97391e6610 ("sock: Remove ->sendpage*() in favour of
sendmsg(MSG_SPLICE_PAGES)")
This patch carries out a refactoring of the sendpage functionality in
the write_data() function:
1. Reorganize the logic used to select the sock_sendpage function.
2. Streamline the data sending loop by reducing conditional branches and
eliminating labels.
3. Adjust the error handling for -EINTR and -EAGAIN to make the code
cleaner and easier to follow.
This patch doesn't change any functionality.
This patch introduces several improvements to the 'write iop loop' in
the write_data() function:
1. Move iop-related variables under the scope of the 'write iop loop'.
2. Eliminate the 'retry' label, use 'continue' instead for simplicity.
3. Remove the redundant 'rest' variable, use just 'res' instead.
This patch doesn't change any functionality.
This patch introduces several improvements to the write_data() function:
1. Remove the redundant 'sendpage' function pointer variable.
2. Update variables related to size to use the size_t type for better
type correctness and safety.
3. Introduce a new variable, 'parent_req', to store the
'write_cmnd->parent_req' pointer and reduce redundant accesses.
4. Fix several checkpatch warnings.
This patch doesn't change any functionality.
This patch changes the processing threads to use INTERRUPTIBLE sleep
states in the scst_wait_event_...() functions. This aims to avoid
warnings from the hung task detection checker and to prevent
unnecessary load counting.
Fixes: d8894cbd11 ("scst.h: Refactor wait_event_locked() to enhance usability and clarity")
1. Set the default process state to TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE during sleep.
This change is made because our current code does not check whether a
process was interrupted by a signal.
2. Prefix all SCST wait_event-related macros with 'scst_'. This helps to
distinguish SCST-specific macros from those provided by the Linux
kernel itself.
3. Add the capability to return an error code when a process in a
non-TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE state is interrupted by a signal.
4. Divide the wait_event_locked function based on each lock type,
resulting in the following new functions: scst_wait_event_lock(),
scst_wait_event_lock_bh(), and scst_wait_event_lock_irq().
This patch fixes the installation process for Linux kernels where the
default value of INSTALL_MOD_DIR differs from `extra`.
For instance, it unbreaks `make rpm` against Fedora's kernels, where
INSTALL_MOD_DIR is set to `updates`.
Support for the following driver core changes in the Linux kernel v6.4:
- 1aaba11da9aa ("driver core: class: remove module * from class_create()")
- 2243acd50ac4 ("driver core: class: remove struct class_interface * from callbacks")
Remove the else because the if statement has a break or return statement.
This patch fixes the following checkpatch warnings:
WARNING:UNNECESSARY_ELSE: else is not generally useful after a break
or return.
kmem_cache_destroy() can handle NULL pointer correctly, so there is no need
to check NULL pointer before calling kmem_cache_destroy().
For kernel versions before v4.3 there is a backport of
kmem_cache_destroy() that checks for a null pointer.
This patch fixes the following checkpatch warnings:
WARNING:NEEDLESS_IF: kmem_cache_destroy(NULL) is safe and this check
is probably not required
Change 'compability' to 'compatibility'.
This patch fixes the following checkpatch warning:
WARNING: 'compability' may be misspelled - perhaps 'compatibility'?
This patch should fix the following bug:

-------------------------------------
What happens:
- istwr() calls scst_do_job_wr().
- scst_do_job_wr() calls iscsi_send().
- iscsi_send() sets the 'res' variable to 0 during error
in one of three possible places:
iscsi_do_send(), tx_padding(), tx_ddigest().
- All of these functions call exit_tx() which sets conn->write_state to TX_END.
- After iscsi_send() has completed for the current iteration, the next time
it processes iscsi_conn with conn->write_state == TX_END,
which will call BUG() in the switch default case.
Therefore, remove the res == 0 check in iscsi_send() to handle TX_END state.

Suppress the following (false positive) Coverity complaint:
CID 271578 (#1 of 1): Dereference after null check (FORWARD_NULL)
var_deref_model: Passing null pointer (*ref_cmd).scst_cmd to
scst_set_delivery_status, which dereferences it
(*ref_cmd).scst_aen is set when (*ref_cmd).scst_state == ISCSI_CMD_STATE_AEN
and vice versa, so the Coverity complaint is a false positive. Hence rewrite
the code to suppress this complaint and make the code cleaner.
This patch fixes the following Coverity complaint:
CID 271601 (#1 of 1): Uninitialized scalar variable (UNINIT)
uninit_use_in_call: Using uninitialized value req.
Field req.cid is uninitialized when calling iscsid_request.
This patch fixes the following Coverity complaint:
CID 271606 (#1 of 1): Uninitialized scalar variable (UNINIT)
uninit_use_in_call: Using uninitialized value event.
Field event.target_name is uninitialized when calling __event_send.
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].
This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle:
($ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . > output.patch)
@@
identifier S, member, array;
type T1, T2;

Add the opportunity to globally specify multiple addresses, which
iSCSI/iSER portal will listen on.
There is a way to specify the addresses for a target, on which
portals it will be available, using the allowed_portal parameter.
There is also a way to set this globally via the iscsi-scstd
--address parameter. The problem is that the last option allows
you to specify only one local address. So extend this functionality
to specify more then one address.
Also increase the maximum number of listening addresses to 32.

During processing RDMA_CM_EVENT_ADDR_CHANGE event rdma_bind_addr in isert_setup_id function from isert_cm_evt_listener_handler returns error -98 [EADDRINUSE].
In principle, it is logical, because at that time the socket address was still bound to the old cma_id which will be destroyed via rdma_destroy_id only after processing the RDMA_CM_EVENT_ADDR_CHANGE event.
Move the creation of the cma_id in workqueue context and delete old cma_id directly, not through returning the error code to the upper level.
