iscsi-target: Drop bogus struct file usage for iSCSI/SCTP
commit bf6932f44a7b3fa7e2246a8b18a44670e5eab6c2 upstream. From Al Viro: BTW, speaking of struct file treatment related to sockets - there's this piece of code in iscsi: /* * The SCTP stack needs struct socket->file. */ if ((np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_TCP) || (np->np_network_transport == ISCSI_SCTP_UDP)) { if (!new_sock->file) { new_sock->file = kzalloc( sizeof(struct file), GFP_KERNEL); For one thing, as far as I can see it'not true - sctp does *not* depend on socket->file being non-NULL; it does, in one place, check socket->file->f_flags for O_NONBLOCK, but there it treats NULL socket->file as "flag not set". Which is the case here anyway - the fake struct file created in __iscsi_target_login_thread() (and in iscsi_target_setup_login_socket(), with the same excuse) do *not* get that flag set. Moreover, it's a bloody serious violation of a bunch of asserts in VFS; all struct file instances should come from filp_cachep, via get_empty_filp() (or alloc_file(), which is a wrapper for it). FWIW, I'm very tempted to do this and be done with the entire mess: Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Andy Grover <agrover@redhat.com> Cc: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Cc: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
