alua_bus_detach() might be running concurrently with alua_rtpg_work(),
so we might trip over h->sdev == NULL and call BUG_ON().
The correct way of handling it would be to not set h->sdev to NULL
in alua_bus_detach(), and call rcu_synchronize() before the final
delete to ensure that all concurrent threads have left the critical
section.
Then we can get rid of the BUG_ON(), and replace it with a simple
if condition.

Hi Hannes,

Do you agree that the changes in alua_bus_detach() make the changes in
alua_rtpg() superfluous?

How about freezing command processing for 'sdev' while detaching a
device handler instead of inserting a synchronize_rcu() call in
alua_bus_detach()? I'm concerned that the alua_bus_detach() changes are
not sufficient to fix all possible races between detaching a device
handler and the following code from the SCSI error handler:

	if (sdev->handler && sdev->handler->check_sense) {
		int rc;

		rc = sdev->handler->check_sense(sdev, &sshdr);
		if (rc != SCSI_RETURN_NOT_HANDLED)
			return rc;
		/* handler does not care. Drop down to default handling */
	}

Thanks,

Bart.

I agree that the "if (!h->sdev)   continue;" should not be needed in
alua_rtpg() if the h->sdev remains valid while in the list.

I'm a little concerned about adding the synchronize_rcu() as this is
called in the scsi_device_dev_release_usercontext() path, with a lot
of LUNs it could take a while to remove all the devices, see e.g.:

f983622ae605 scsi: core: Avoid calling synchronize_rcu() for each
               device in scsi_host_block()

It doesn't look like we ever NULL sdev->handler on detach even though
we do a module_put() on the DH.  But we have already called the
release() function so perhaps this doesn't cause a problem in
practice.

Applied to 5.10/scsi-fixes, thanks!
