pscsi_map_sg() uses the variable nr_pages as a hint for bio_kmalloc() how many vector elements to allocate. If nr_pages is < BIO_MAX_PAGES, it will be reset to 0 after successful allocation of the bio. If bio_add_pc_page() fails later for whatever reason, pscsi_map_sg() tries to allocate another bio, passing nr_vecs = 0. This causes bio_add_pc_page() to fail immediately in the next call. pci_map_sg() continues to allocate zero-length bios until memory is exhausted and the kernel crashes with OOM. This can be easily observed by exporting a SATA DVD drive via pscsi. The target crashes as soon as the client tries to access the DVD LUN. In the case I analyzed, bio_add_pc_page() would fail because the DVD device's max_sectors_kb (128) was exceeded. Avoid this by simply not resetting nr_pages to 0 after allocating the bio. This way, the client receives an I/O error when it tries to send requests exceeding the devices max_sectors_kb, and eventually gets it right. The client must still limit max_sectors_kb e.g. by an udev rule if (like in my case) the driver doesn't report valid block limits, otherwise it encounters I/O errors.
