      iscsi-target: fix iscsit_del_np deadlock on unload · 81a9c5e7
      Mikulas Patocka authored
      On uniprocessor preemptible kernel, target core deadlocks on unload. The
      following events happen:
      * iscsit_del_np is called
      * it calls send_sig(SIGINT, np->np_thread, 1);
      * the scheduler switches to the np_thread
      * the np_thread is woken up, it sees that kthread_should_stop() returns
        false, so it doesn't terminate
      * the np_thread clears signals with flush_signals(current); and goes back
        to sleep in iscsit_accept_np
      * the scheduler switches back to iscsit_del_np
      * iscsit_del_np calls kthread_stop(np->np_thread);
      * the np_thread is waiting in iscsit_accept_np and it doesn't respond to
        kthread_stop
      
      The deadlock could be resolved if the administrator sends SIGINT signal to
      the np_thread with killall -INT iscsi_np
      
      The reproducible deadlock was introduced in commit
      db6077fd
      
      , but the thread-stopping code was
      racy even before.
      
      This patch fixes the problem. Using kthread_should_stop to stop the
      np_thread is unreliable, so we test np_thread_state instead. If
      np_thread_state equals ISCSI_NP_THREAD_SHUTDOWN, the thread exits.

      Pull x86 fixes from Peter Anvin:
       "A pile of fixes related to the VDSO, EFI and 32-bit badsys handling.
      
        It turns out that removing the section headers from the VDSO breaks
        gdb, so this puts back most of them.  A very simple typo broke
        rt_sigreturn on some versions of glibc, with obviously disastrous
        results.  The rest is pretty much fixes for the corresponding fallout.
      
        The EFI fixes fixes an arithmetic overflow on 32-bit systems and
        quiets some build warnings.
      
        Finally, when invoking an invalid system call number on x86-32, we
        bypass a bunch of handling, which can make the audit code oops"
