Subject: [PATCH v4] scsi:iscsi: Fix multiple iscsi session unbind event sent to userspace

I found an issue that kernel would send ISCSI_KEVENT_UNBIND_SESSION
for multiple times which should be fixed.

This patch introduce target_state in iscsi_cls_session to make
sure session would send only one ISCSI_KEVENT_UNBIND_SESSION.

But this would break issue fixed in commit 13e60d3ba287 ("scsi: iscsi:
Report unbind session event when the target has been removed"). The issue
is iscsid died for any reason after it send unbind session to kernel, once
iscsid restart again, it loss kernel's ISCSI_KEVENT_UNBIND_SESSION event.

Now kernel think iscsi_cls_session has already sent an
ISCSI_KEVENT_UNBIND_SESSION event and would not send it any more. Which
would cause userspace unable to logout. Actually the session is in
invalid state(it's target_id is INVALID), iscsid should not sync this
session in it's restart.

So we need to check session's target state during iscsid restart,
if session is in unbound state, do not sync this session and perform
session teardown. It's reasonable because once a session is unbound, we
can not recover it any more(mainly because it's target id is INVALID)

V4:
- Move debug print out of spinlock critical section

V3:
- Make target bind state to a state kind rather than a bool.

V2:
- Using target_unbound rather than state to indicate session has been
unbound

Hey,

Sorry for the late reply.

For the initial login we have not scanned the session above, so there
is no target yet. If iscsid is restarted at this time, then iscsid wants
to sync the session and also do the initial scan.

To handle that case and also better match the state names with the
session's target state we can:

1. Move the above line to iscsi_user_scan_session after we have scanned
the target.
2. Add a new state ISCSI_SESSION_TARGET_ALLOCATED to reflect we have
allocated the target_id, but not yet scanned.

It doesn't matter.

I have some wonder about the target_id like be2iscsi which allocated from
iscsi_sess_ida. Should not we get the target_id from iSCSI target?
If they allocate target_id with an random value, how to handle the
iscsi_user_scan_session which would check the session's target_id.

I have no environment which deployed these iSCSI drivers like be2iscsi, so I
can not valid my guess.

For iscsi, that target id is only a number that's used on the initiator side
to track the target. The target has no idea what it is and it's never
sent/used/passed to the target.

For example, the qla4xxx driver uses it to lookup persistent target info it
has stored on it's flash. The other use is that we need a unique name for
the target in sysfs and that target id is used as part of that name.

Thanks for your answer, I would update this patch and open-iscsi's PR.
