From db196935d9562abec4510f48d887bc1f1e054fcf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hiral Shah Date: Tue, 14 Jul 2015 07:08:57 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fnic: Use the local variable instead of I/O flag to acquire io_req_lock in fnic_queuecommand() to avoid deadloack We added changes in fnic driver patch 1.6.0.16 to acquire io_req_lock in fnic_queuecommand() before issuing I/O so that io completion is serialized. But when releasing the lock we check for the I/O flag and this could be modified if IO abort occurs before I/O completion. In this case we wont release the lock and causes deadlock in some scenerios. Using the local variable to check the IO lock status will resolve the problem.
