[Regression Potential]

 * None expected, the patch comes from tgt upstream repo and it is already implemented in Ubuntu Wily and Debian.

[Other Info]

 * The fix has been tested by the community and the fix resolved the issue. For more details see Comment #4

[Original Description]

With a large number of targets tgtadm --mode target --op show returns inconsistent results. Some targets are not listed during one run, but are shown by a run immediately after.

I grabbed the binary from the wily package and I am getting consistent results, so somewhere between 1.0.43 and 1.0.57 upstream seems to have patched the bug.

Can we get 1.0.57 (or whatever version has the fix) backported to trusty?

Thanks Eric!

A quick test by @jcallicoat shows that the package seems to have resolved the issue.

Hi Brian,

I got a discussion with arges yesterday about it.

vivid version of tgt didn't build with this error :
sbuild-build-depends-tgt-dummy : Depends: libibverbs-dev (>= 1.1.8-1ubuntu1.1) but 1.1.8-1ubuntu1 is to be installed

I think it has something to do with this LP patch :

LP: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1409904

This is why the version of libibverbs-dev changed in the Vivid upload.

Hello Jordan, or anyone else affected,

Accepted tgt into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tgt/1:1.0.17-1ubuntu2.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!
