As part of firmware download, the adapter is reset. On the adapter the reset causes the function to stop and all outstanding io is terminated (without responses). The reset path then starts teardown of the adapter, starting with deregistration of the remote ports with the nvme-fc transport. The local port is then deregistered and the driver waits for local port deregistration. This never finishes. The remote port deregistrations terminated the nvme controllers, causing them to send aborts for all the outstanding io. The aborts were serviced in the driver, but stalled due to its state. The nvme layer then stops to reclaim it's outstanding io before continuing. The io must be returned before the reset on the controller is deemed complete and the controller delete performed. The remote port deregistration won't complete until all the controllers are terminated. And the local port deregistration won't complete until all controllers and remote ports are terminated. Thus things hang. The issue is the reset which stopped the adapter also stopped all the responses that would drive i/o completions, and the aborts were also stopped that stopped i/o completions. The driver, when resetting the adapter like this, needs to be generating the completions as part of the adapter reset so that I/O complete (in error), and any aborts are not queued. Fix by adding flush routines whenever the adapter port has been reset or discovered in error. The flush routines will generate the completions for the scsi and nvme outstanding io. The abort ios, if waiting, will be caught and flushed as well. Signed-off-by: Dick Kennedy <dick.kennedy@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: James Smart <jsmart2021@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
