Hi,
Regarding debug prints in "__scsi_scan_target", here is what I added:
{{{
static void __scsi_scan_target(struct device *parent, unsigned int channel,
...
printk(KERN_INFO "__scsi_scan_target -->
scsi_probe_and_add_lun: lun (%d) != SCAN_WILD_CARD, rescan=%d \n", lun, rescan);
scsi_probe_and_add_lun(starget, lun, NULL, NULL, rescan, NULL);
...
/*
* Scan LUN 0, if there is some response, scan further. Ideally, we
* would not configure LUN 0 until all LUNs are scanned.
*/
printk(KERN_INFO "__scsi_scan_target --> scsi_probe_and_add_lun: before
scanning LUN 0, rescan=%d \n", rescan);
res = scsi_probe_and_add_lun(starget, 0, &bflags, NULL, rescan, NULL);
printk(KERN_INFO "__scsi_scan_target --> scsi_probe_and_add_lun:
scanning LUN 0: rescan=%d, res=%d \n", lun, res);
...
}}}
The output contains the following messages (a few times) (the first+last prints
here are new, the third one I'll explain in a moment..):
{
dmesg.0:__scsi_scan_target --> scsi_probe_and_add_lun: before scanning LUN 0,
rescan=0
dmesg.0:caley debug: scsi_probe_and_add_lun start, lun=0, rescan=0
dmesg.0:caley debug: scsi_probe_and_add_lun out_free_sdev, res=0
dmesg.0:__scsi_scan_target --> scsi_probe_and_add_lun: scanning LUN 0:
rescan=-1, res=0
}
Regarding the third print ("...scsi_probe_and_add_lun out_free_sdev..."), I
added it just before the LAST return at the bottom line of "
scsi_probe_and_add_lun". Since it always appears in the log right after "
scsi_probe_and_add_lun start", I concluded that the function always finished.
I agree that this does not add up very well with having the trace *currently in
side* of "scsi_probe_and_add_lun".
Perhaps a timing issue of "when were the logs taken vs when was the trace
taken" ? It would be more likely if we'd have an infinite loop (that is half
time in the function and half time out of it)
Perhaps a bad stack trace? I don't think so, the "scsi_probe_and_add_lun" keeps
appearing in stack traces I'm getting.
Regarding having "max_dev_lun=1":
MAX_SCSI_LUNS is defined as 512, as usual.
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN - I'm not sure, I doubt we changed the default to "don't
work with multi lun". I think that this "max_dev_lun=1" might be coming from
earlier in the function, a lot of code there changes it. Anyway it seems to be
less relevant since it's not causing an infinite loop as was expected and also
because "scsi_sequential_lun_scan" doesn't even appear in the stack trace. (If
you'd like, I'll run a test to check what it is defined to anyway).

How are you getting max_dev_lun=1? Do you build your kernel without
CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN, or did you modify iscsi_tcp's max lun?

I am not sure how you can say it always completes when in the above trace we
are stuck in scsi_probe_and_add_lun. If we are not really stuck in there (not
sure if it is just a bad trace because you said you saw the sequential scan
printk so we must have moved past that initial probe and add lun call), then
where are we stuck in the scsi_scan_target/__scsi_scan_target code path? Did
you already stick some printks in there to narrow it down? If not, then do that.
During this test, before you do the rescan command, are there luns/devices
setup on the initiator side? I mean is there a scsi_device for LUN0 already
setup or did you delete the luns/scsi_devices at some time before you did the
rescan?
If there is a lun0 already present, then you should add printks to
scsi_probe_and_add_lun to see why it was not found and we are going down the
code path to add it. scsi_probe_and_add_lun should have returned
SCSI_SCAN_LUN_PRESENT.
