There are three timing problems in the kthread usages of iscsi_target_mod: - np_thread of struct iscsi_np - rx_thread and tx_thread of struct iscsi_conn In iscsit_close_connection(), it calls send_sig(SIGINT, conn->tx_thread, 1); kthread_stop(conn->tx_thread); In conn->tx_thread, which is iscsi_target_tx_thread(), when it receive SIGINT the kthread will exit without checking the return value of kthread_should_stop(). So if iscsi_target_tx_thread() exit right between send_sig(SIGINT...) and kthread_stop(...), the kthread_stop() will try to stop an already stopped kthread. This is invalid according to the documentation of kthread_stop().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
