[PATCH] sd: sd_open: prevent device removal during sd_open - Linux-stable-mirror

2 Sep 2021

sd and parent devices must not be removed as sd_open checks for events
sd_need_revalidate and sd_revalidate_disk traverse the device path
to check for event changes. If during this, e.g. the scsi host is being
removed and its resources freed, this traversal crashes.
Locking with scan_mutex for just a scsi disk open may seem blunt, but there
does not seem to be a more granular option. Also opening /dev/sdX directly
happens rarely enough that this shouldn't cause any issues.
The issue occurred on an older kernel with the following trace:
stack segment: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
CPU: 1 PID: 121457 Comm: python3 Not tainted 4.14.238hyLinux #1
Hardware name: ASUS All Series/H81M-D, BIOS 0601 02/20/2014

and this commit fixed that issue, as there has been no other such
synchronization in place since then, the issue should still be present in
recent kernels.
