In sg_common_write(), we free the block request and return -ENODEV if
the device is detached in the middle of the SG_IO ioctl().
Unfortunately, sg_finish_rem_req() also tries to free srp->rq, so we
end up freeing rq->cmd in the already free rq object, and then free
the object itself out from under the current user.
This ends up corrupting random memory via the list_head on the rq
object. The most common crash trace I saw is this:
------------[ cut here ]------------

The solution is straightforward: just set srp->rq to NULL in the
failure branch so that sg_finish_rem_req() doesn't attempt to re-free
it.
Additionally, since sg_rq_end_io() will never be called on the object
when this happens, we need to free memory backing ->cmd if it isn't
embedded in the object itself.
KASAN was extremely helpful in finding the root cause of this bug.

unfortunately, allowing an arbitrary 16bit value means a possibility of
overflow in the calculation of total number of pages in bio_map_user_iov() -
we rely on there being no more than PAGE_SIZE members of sum in the
first loop there. If that sum wraps around, we end up allocating
too small array of pointers to pages and it's easy to overflow it in
the second loop.

With scsi-mq enabled, userspace programs can get unexpected EWOULDBLOCK

driver. Fix by calling blk_get_request() with GFP_KERNEL instead of
GFP_ATOMIC.

When using the write()/read() interface for submitting commands, the
SCSI generic driver does not call blk_put_request() on a completed SCSI
command until userspace calls read() to get the command completion.
Since scsi-mq uses a fixed number of preallocated requests, this makes
it possible for userspace to exhaust the entire preallocated supply of
requests. For places in the kernel that call blk_get_request() with
GFP_KERNEL, this can cause the calling process to deadlock in a
permanent unkillable I/O wait in blk_get_request() -> ... -> bt_get().
For places in the kernel that call blk_get_request() with GFP_ATOMIC,
this can cause blk_get_request() always to return -EWOULDBLOCK. Note
that these problems happen only if scsi-mq is enabled. Prevent the
problems by calling blk_put_request() as soon as the SCSI command
completes instead of waiting for userspace to call read().

Avoid taking the queue_lock to check the per-device queue limit. Instead
we do an atomic_inc_return early on to grab our slot in the queue,
and if necessary decrement it after finishing all checks.
Unlike the host and target busy counters this doesn't allow us to avoid the
queue_lock in the request_fn due to the way the interface works, but it'll
allow us to prepare for using the blk-mq code, which doesn't use the
queue_lock at all, and it at least avoids a queue_lock round trip in
scsi_device_unbusy, which is still important given how busy the queue_lock
is.

This addresses a problem reported by Vaughan Cao concerning
the correctness of the O_EXCL logic in the sg driver. POSIX
doesn't defined O_EXCL semantics on devices but "allow only
one open file descriptor at a time per sg device" is a rough
definition. The sg driver's semantics have been to wait
on an open() when O_NONBLOCK is not given and there are
O_EXCL headwinds. Nasty things can happen during that wait
such as the device being detached (removed). So multiple
locks are reworked in this patch making it large and hard
to break down into digestible bits.
This patch is against Linus's current git repository which
doesn't include any sg patches sent in the last few weeks.
Hence this patch touches as little as possible that it
doesn't need to and strips out most SCSI_LOG_TIMEOUT()
changes in v3 because Hannes said he was going to rework all
that stuff.
The sg3_utils package has several test programs written to
test this patch. See examples/sg_tst_excl*.cpp .
Not all the locks and flags in sg have been re-worked in
this patch, notably sg_request::done . That can wait for
a follow-up patch if this one meets with approval.

When the SG_IO ioctl was copied into the block layer and
later into the bsg driver, subtle differences emerged.
One difference is the way injected commands are queued through
the block layer (i.e. this is not SCSI device queueing nor SATA
NCQ). Summarizing:
- SG_IO in the block layer: blk_exec*(at_head=false)
- sg SG_IO: at_head=true
- bsg SG_IO: at_head=true
Some time ago Boaz Harrosh introduced a sg v4 flag called
BSG_FLAG_Q_AT_TAIL to override the bsg driver default.
This patch does the equivalent for the sg driver.
ChangeLog:
Introduce SG_FLAG_Q_AT_TAIL flag to cause commands
to be injected into the block layer with
at_head=false.

A race condition may happen if two threads are both trying to open the same sg
with O_EXCL simultaneously. It's possible that they both find fsds list is
empty and get_exclude(sdp) returns 0, then they both call set_exclude() and
break out from wait_event_interruptible and resume open.
Now use rwsem to protect this process. Exclusive open gets write lock and
others get read lock. The lock will be held until file descriptor is closed.
This also leads 'exclude' only a status rather than a check mark.

With the exception of the detached field, sg_mutex no longer adds any
locking. detached handling has been broken before and is still broken
and this patch does not seem to make things worse than they were to
begin with.
However, I have observed cases of tasks being blocked for >200s waiting
for sg_mutex. So the removal clearly adds value for very little cost.

sfds is protected by sg_index_lock - except for sg_open(), where it
isn't. Change that and add some documentation.

Changes since v1: set_exclude now returns the new value, which gets
rid of the comma expression and the operator precedence bug. Thanks
to Douglas for spotting it.
sdp->exclude was previously protected by the BKL. The sg_mutex, which
replaced the BKL, only semi-protected it, as it was missing from
sg_release() and sg_proc_seq_show_debug(). Take an explicit spinlock
for it.

srp->done is protected by sfp->rq_list_lock everywhere, except for this
one case. Result can be that the wake-up happens before the cacheline
with the changed srp->done has arrived, so the waiter can go back to
sleep and never be woken up again.
The wait_event_interruptible() means that anyone trying to debug this
unlikely race will likely notice everything working fine again, as the
next signal will unwedge things. Evil.

After sg_release() has been called, noone should be able to actually use
that filedescriptor anymore. So if closed ever made a difference in the
past five years or so, it would have meant a bug. Remove it.

Afaics the use of __wait_event_interruptible() as opposed to
wait_event_interruptible() is purely historic. So let's follow the rest
of the kernel and check the condition before prepare_to_wait() - and
also make the code a bit nicer.

The while (1) construct isn't actually a loop at all. So let's not
pretent and obfuscate the code.

blocking is de-facto a constant and the now-removed comment wasn't all
that useful either. Without them and the resulting indentation the code
is a bit nicer to read.
