target/iscsi: Fix network portal creation race
commit ee291e63293146db64668e8d65eb35c97e8324f4 upstream. When creating network portals rapidly, such as when restoring a configuration, LIO's code to reuse existing portals can return a false negative if the thread hasn't run yet and set np_thread_state to ISCSI_NP_THREAD_ACTIVE. This causes an error in the network stack when attempting to bind to the same address/port. This patch sets NP_THREAD_ACTIVE before the np is placed on g_np_list, so even if the thread hasn't run yet, iscsit_get_np will return the existing np. Also, convert np_lock -> np_mutex + hold across adding new net portal to g_np_list to prevent a race where two threads may attempt to create the same network portal, resulting in one of them failing. (nab: Add missing mutex_unlocks in iscsit_add_np failure paths) (DanC: Fix incorrect spin_unlock -> spin_unlock_bh) Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <agrover@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
