Minimal supplement to upstream Kernel Self Protection Project changes. Features already provided by SELinux + Yama and archs other than multiarch arm64 / x86_64 aren't in scope. Only tags have stable history. Shared IRC channel with KSPP: irc.libera.chat #linux-hardening

After a successful SRP login response we call scsi_unblock_requests() to kick any pending IOs. The callback to process this SRP response happens in a tasklet and therefore is in softirq context. The result of such is that when blk-mq is enabled, it is no longer safe to call scsi_unblock_requests() from this context. The result of duing so triggers the following WARN_ON splat in dmesg after a host reset or CRQ reenablement. WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at block/blk-mq.c:1375 __blk_mq_run_hw_queue+0x120/0x180 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.0.0-rc8 #4 NIP [c0000000009771e0] __blk_mq_run_hw_queue+0x120/0x180 LR [c000000000977484] __blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue+0x244/0x250 Call Trace: __blk_mq_delay_run_hw_queue+0x244/0x250 blk_mq_run_hw_queue+0x8c/0x1c0 blk_mq_run_hw_queues+0x60/0x90 scsi_run_queue+0x1e4/0x3b0 scsi_run_host_queues+0x48/0x80 login_rsp+0xb0/0x100 ibmvscsi_handle_crq+0x30c/0x3e0 ibmvscsi_task+0x54/0xe0 tasklet_action_common.isra.3+0xc4/0x1a0 __do_softirq+0x174/0x3f4 irq_exit+0xf0/0x120 __do_irq+0xb0/0x210 call_do_irq+0x14/0x24 do_IRQ+0x9c/0x130 hardware_interrupt_common+0x14c/0x150 This patch fixes the issue by introducing a new host action for unblocking the scsi requests in our seperate work thread.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
