When the low level driver exercises the hot unplug they would call
rdma_cm cma_remove_one which would fire DEVICE_REMOVAL event to all cma
consumers. Now, if consumer doesn't make sure they destroy all IB
objects created on that IB device instance prior to finalizing all
processing of DEVICE_REMOVAL callback, rdma_cm will let the lld to
de-register with IB core and destroy the IB device instance. And if the
consumer calls (say) ib_dereg_mr(), it will crash since that dev object
is NULL.
In the current implementation, iser-target just initiates the cleanup
and returns from DEVICE_REMOVAL callback. This deferred work creates a
race between iser-target cleaning IB objects(say MR) and lld destroying
IB device instance.
This patch includes the following fixes
-> make sure that consumer frees all IB objects associated with device
instance
-> return non-zero from the callback to destroy the rdma_cm id

Overview
This is the source code repository of the SCST project. SCST is a collection of Linux kernel drivers that implement SCSI target functionality. The SCST project includes:
- The SCST core in the scst/ subdirectory.
- A tool for loading, saving and modifying the SCST configuration in directory scstadmin/.
- Several SCSI target drivers in the directories iscsi-scst/, qla2x00t/, srpt/, scst_local/ and fcst/.
- User space programs in the usr/ subdirectory, e.g. fileio_tgt.
- Various documentation in the doc/ subdirectory.
Instructions for building and installing SCST are available in the INSTALL.md file.
QLogic target driver
Two QLogic target drivers are included in the SCST project.
The default driver is located in qla2x00t-32gbit directory and it supports up to 32 Gb/s FC. It is the newer one.
May anyone wish to switch back to the older driver that only supported up to
16 Gb/s adapters, it is located in qla2x00t directory. To make use of the
older driver build scst with environment variable QLA_32GBIT=no set.
