From 5c10e63c943b4c67561ddc6bf61e01d4141f881f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takahiro Yasui Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2009 12:13:02 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] limit state transitions in scsi_internal_device_unblock scsi timeout on two or more devices may cause extremely long execution time for user applications because SDEV_OFFLINE state is changed to SDEV_RUNNING state during scsi error recovery procedures triggered by a bus reset or a host reset of scsi LLD, and scsi timeout can happens on the same devices many times. This happens because scsi_internal_device_unblock() changes device's state to SDEV_RUNNING even if a device in other states than SDEV_BLOCK, while the following two transitions are required in this function. SDEV_BLOCK -> SDEV_RUNNING SDEV_CREATED_BLOCK -> SDEV_CREATED Otherwise, it returns -EINVAL.
