Hi Damien,

From testing mainline, I can see a hang on my arm64 system for SAS
disks. I think that the reason is the we don't finish some commands in
EH properly for pm8001:
- In EH, we attempt to abort the task in sas_scsi_find_task() ->
lldd_abort_task()
The default return from pm8001_exec_internal_tmf_task() is
-TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED, so if the TMF does not execute properly we return
this value
- sas_scsi_find_task() cannot handle -TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED, and returns
-TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED directly to sas_eh_handle_sas_errors(), which,
again, does not handle -TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED. So we don't progress to
ever finish the comand.

This looks like the correct fix for mainline:

--- a/drivers/scsi/pm8001/pm8001_sas.c
+++ b/drivers/scsi/pm8001/pm8001_sas.c
@@ -766,7 +766,7 @@ static int pm8001_exec_internal_tmf_task(struct
domain_device *dev,
pm8001_dev, DS_OPERATIONAL);
wait_for_completion(&completion_setstate);
}
- res = -TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED;
+ res = TMF_RESP_FUNC_FAILED;

That's effectively the same as what I have in this series in
sas_execute_tmf().

However your testing is a SATA device, which I'll check further.

Thanks,
John
