---[ end trace 43f5eefb64627eff ]---

scsi-mq uses a host-wide tag map shared among all devices with some integer tag values >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. These unexpectedly high tag values cause __ata_qc_from_tag() to return NULL, which is then dereferenced in ata_qc_new_init(), causing the oops above.

Due to conflicts, it is also necessary to revert commit 98bd4be1ba95 ("libata: move sas ata tag allocation to libata-scsi.c"), which appears to have been a follow-on cleanup to the commit that caused the problem.

Fixes 12cb5ce101ab ("libata: use blk taging")

---

Note: when reverting the two commits above, I had to fixup conflicts with the following commit:
72dd299d5039a336493993dcc63413cf31d0e662 ("libata: allow sata_sil24 to opt-out of tag ordered submission")

If anyone else can suggest a fix that does not involve reverting the commits, then I would be happy to test.

The oops output was generated using the SCSI generic driver (sg) to send commands to SATA disks connected to a pm80xx HBA.

Here is the code relevant to the oops:

	ATA_MAX_QUEUE = 32,
};

	return (tag < ATA_MAX_QUEUE) ? 1 : 0;

Wait, something is missing here. We should not be getting tag values that are >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. Instead of reverting this, we need to figure out why this is happening, and fix it. That is correct way forward here. What setup is this being reproduced on?

scsi-mq uses a host-wide tag map shared among all devices with some integer tag values >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. These unexpectedly high tag values cause __ata_qc_from_tag() to return NULL, which is then dereferenced in ata_qc_new_init(), causing the oops above.

Wait, something is missing here. We should not be getting tag values that are >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. Instead of reverting this, we need to figure out why this is happening, and fix it. That is correct way forward here. What setup is this being reproduced on?

Hardware:
PMC 8001 SAS HBA (PCI ID 117c:0042, PCI sub-ID 117c:0043) using pm80xx driver
4 SATA disks directly connected (no expander)

Test procedure:
Send disk read/write commands to SATA disks using the SCSI generic (sg) driver.

Analysis:

shost->can_queue is 508

With my patch applied to revert the problematic commits, I added the following code to ata_scsi_qc_new():

    int tag = cmd->request->tag;
    static int max_tag;
    if (tag > max_tag) {
        max_tag = tag;
        printk(KERN_DEBUG "max tag %d\n", tag);
    }

Testing one SATA disk at a time with scsi-mq enabled, I get a max tag of
64. Testing 4 disks at a time with scsi-mq enabled gives a max tag of
194. With scsi-mq disabled, I get a max tag of 30 no matter how many disks I test.

ata_qc_new_init() has a check, if !ap->scsi_host, request tag will not be used and fallback to original tag allocation. you are using sas controller, so the problem is why ap->scsi_host is set in your case.

scsi-mq uses a host-wide tag map shared among all devices with some integer tag values >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. These unexpectedly high tag values cause __ata_qc_from_tag() to return NULL, which is then dereferenced in ata_qc_new_init(), causing the oops above.

Wait, something is missing here. We should not be getting tag values that are >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. Instead of reverting this, we need to figure out why this is happening, and fix it. That is correct way forward here. What setup is this being reproduced on?

Hardware:
PMC 8001 SAS HBA (PCI ID 117c:0042, PCI sub-ID 117c:0043) using pm80xx driver
4 SATA disks directly connected (no expander)

Test procedure:
Send disk read/write commands to SATA disks using the SCSI generic (sg) driver.

Analysis:

shost->can_queue is 508

With my patch applied to revert the problematic commits, I added the following code to ata_scsi_qc_new():

    int tag = cmd->request->tag;
    static int max_tag;
    if (tag > max_tag) {
        max_tag = tag;
        printk(KERN_DEBUG "max tag %d\n", tag);
    }
Quoted 4 lines

Testing one SATA disk at a time with scsi-mq enabled, I get a max tag of
64. Testing 4 disks at a time with scsi-mq enabled gives a max tag of
194. With scsi-mq disabled, I get a max tag of 30 no matter how many disks I test.

Can you please try this debug patch:

PATCH 1/1 ata: Add a new flag to destinguish sas controller

Quoted 1 line

From 5067c0469c643512f24786990e315f9c15cc7d24 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

From: Shaohua Li <[email protected]>

SAS controller has its own tag allocation, which doesn't directly match to ATA tag, so SAS and SATA have different code path for ata tags. Originally we use port->scsi_host (98bd4be1) to destinguish SAS controller, but libsas set ->scsi_host too, so we can't use it for the destinguish, we add a new flag for this purpose.

Without this patch, the following oops can happen because scsi-mq uses a host-wide tag map shared among all devices with some integer tag values >= ATA_MAX_QUEUE. These unexpectedly high tag values cause __ata_qc_from_tag() to return NULL, which is then dereferenced in ata_qc_new_init().
