[PATCH-v2 3/3] iscsi-target: Fix connection reset hang with percpu_ida_alloc

From: Nicholas A. Bellinger
Date: Sun Jan 19 2014 - 23:05:56 EST


From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch addresses a bug where connection reset would hang
indefinately once percpu_ida_alloc() was starved for tags, due
to the fact that it always assumed uninterruptible sleep mode.

So now make percpu_ida_alloc() check for signal_pending_state() for
making interruptible sleep optional, and convert iscsit_allocate_cmd()
to set TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE for GFP_KERNEL, or TASK_RUNNING for
GFP_ATOMIC.
