scsi: qla2xxx: Fix NULL pointer crash due to active timer for ABTS
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch fixes NULL pointer crash due to active timer running for abort
IOCB.

From crash dump analysis it was discoverd that get_next_timer_interrupt()
encountered a corrupted entry on the timer list.

Looking at the assembly of get_next_timer_interrupt(), address came
from %r8 (ffff95e1f6451188) which is pointing to list_head with single
entry at ffff95e5ff621178.

Examining the contents of that memory reveals a pointer to a constant string
in the driver, "abort\0", which is set by qla24xx_async_abort_cmd().

The object is a srb_t, and at offset 0xf8 within that structure
(i.e. ffff95e5ff621080 + f8 -> ffff95e5ff621178) is a struct timer_list.
