[PATCH v2 1/2] scsi: core: avoid leaving shost->last_reset with stale value if EH does not run

From: Ewan D. Milne <hidden>
Date: 2021-10-29 19:43:17
Subsystem: scsi subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: "James E.J. Bottomley", "Martin K. Petersen", Linus Torvalds

The changes to issue the abort from the scmd->abort_work instead of the EH
thread introduced a problem if eh_deadline is used.  If aborting the command(s)
is successful, and there are never any scmds added to the shost->eh_cmd_q,
there is no code path which will reset the ->last_reset value back to zero.

The effect of this is that after a successful abort with no EH thread activity,
a subsequent timeout, perhaps a long time later, might immediately be considered
past a user-set eh_deadline time, and the host will be reset with no attempt at
recovery.

Fix this by resetting ->last_reset back to zero in scmd_eh_abort_handler()
if it is determined that the EH thread will not run to do this.

Thanks to Gopinath Marappan for investigating this problem.

Fixes: e494f6a72839 ("[SCSI] improved eh timeout handler")
