* [SCSI] zfcp: fix: avoid removal of fsf reqs before qdio queues are downAndreas Herrmann2006-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | Fix the fix ... One of my previous fixes introduced removal of all fsf requests in zfcp's eh_host_reset_handler. But this must not happen before qdio queues are shut down. So, I revert the changes of zfcp_scsi_eh_host_reset_handler. Signed-off-by: Andreas Herrmann <aherrman@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | zfcp's eh_abort_handler used the wrong request ID to identify the request to be aborted. The bug was introduced with commit fea9d6c7bcd8ff1d60ff74f27ba483b3820b18a3 for improved management of request IDs. The bug is fixed with this patch.

* [SCSI] scsi_debug version 1.80Douglas Gilbert2006-09-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | See http://www.torque.net/sg/sdebug26.html for more information on the scsi_debug driver. ChangeLog: - add 'vpd_use_hostno' parameter to allow simulated hosts to see the same set of targets (and luns). For testing multipath software. - add 'fake_rw' parameter to ignore the data in READ and WRITE commands - add support for log subpages (new in SPC-4) - yield appropriate block descriptor for MODE SENSE commands (only for pdt=0 (i.e. disks)) - REQUEST SENSE response no longer shows the stopped power condition (SAT changed to agree with SPC-3) Signed-off-by: Douglas Gilbert <dougg@torque.net> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | callback This patch adds the following functionality to the FC transport: - dev_loss_tmo LLDD callback : Called to essentially confirm the deletion of an rport. Thus, it is called whenever the dev_loss_tmo fires, or when the rport is deleted due to other circumstances (module unload, etc). It is expected that the callback will initiate the termination of any outstanding i/o on the rport. - fast_io_fail_tmo and LLD callback: There are some cases where it may take a long while to truly determine device loss, but the system is in a multipathing configuration that if the i/o was failed quickly (faster than dev_loss_tmo), it could be redirected to a different path and completed sooner.

It is a followup to the original RFC at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=114530667923464&w=2 and the initial posting at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115507374832500&w=2 The patch has been updated to optimize the send path, per the discussions in the initial posting. Per discussions at the Storage Summit and at OLS, we are to use netlink for async events from transports. Also per discussions, to avoid a netlink protocol per transport, I've create a single NETLINK_SCSITRANSPORT protocol, which can then be used by all transports. This patch: - Creates new files scsi_netlink.c and scsi_netlink.h, which contains the single and shared definitions for the SCSI Transport. It is tied into the base SCSI subsystem intialization. Contains a single interface routine, scsi_send_transport_event(), for a transport to send an event (via multicast to a protocol specific group). - Creates a new scsi_netlink_fc.h file, which contains the FC netlink event messages - Adds 3 new routines to the fc transport: fc_get_event_number() - to get a FC event # fc_host_post_event() - to send a simple FC event (32 bits of data) fc_host_post_vendor_event() - to send a Vendor unique event, with arbitrary amounts of data. Note: the separation of event number allows for a LLD to send a standard event, followed by vendor-specific data for the event. Note: This patch assumes 2 prior fc transport patches have been installed: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115555807316329&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115581614930261&w=2 Sorry - next time I'll do something like making these individual patches of the same posting when I know they'll be posted closely together.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | iscsi_tcp calculates padding by using the expected transfer length. This has the problem where if we have immediate data = no and initial R2T = yes, and the transfer length ended up needing padding then we send: 1. header 2. padding which should have gone after data 3. data Besides this bug, we also assume the target will always ask for nice transfer lengths and the first burst length will always be a nice value. As far as I can tell form the RFC this is not a requirement. It would be silly to do this, but if someone did it we will end doing bad things. Finally the last bug in that bit of code is in our handling of the recalculation of data digests when we do not send a whole iscsi_buf in one try. The bug here is that we call crypto_digest_final on a iscsi_sendpage error, then when we send the rest of the iscsi_buf, we doiscsi_data_digest_init and this causes the previous data digest to be lost. And to make matters worse, some of these bugs are replicated over and over and over again for immediate data, solicited data and unsolicited data. So the attached patch made over the iscsi git tree (see kernel.org/git for details) which I updated today to include the patches I said I merged, consolidates the sending of data, padding and digests and calculation of data digests and fixes the above bugs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It is possible that a ctask could be completing and getting cleaned up at the same time, we are finishing up the last data transfer. This could then result in the data transfer code using stale or invalid values. This patch adds a refcount to the ctask. When the count goes to zero then we know the transmit thread and recv thread or softirq are not touching it and we can safely release it. The eh should not need to grab a reference because it only cleans up a task if it has both the xmit mutex and recv lock (or recv side suspended).

They are taken as string terminators; they and all the following characters are set to ' '. If some valid characters get erased as a result... well, we weren't seeing them before so we haven't lost anything. The primary purpose of this change is to allow blacklist entries to match devices with illegal Vendor or Product strings.

This means that the device_remove_driver, which occurs in device_del() in scsi_remove_device() after the device has gone into SDEV_CANCEL is now effective at flushing the cache.

| * [SCSI] add shared tag map helpersJames Bottomley2006-08-31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for sharing tag maps at the host level (i.e. either every queue [LUN] has its own tag map or there's a single one for the entire host). This formulation is primarily intended to help single issue queue hardware, like the aic7xxx Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
| * [SCSI] aic94xx: Increase can_queue for better performanceDarrick J. Wong2006-08-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch sets can_queue in the aic94xx driver's scsi_host to better performing values than what's there currently. It seems that asd_ha->seq.can_queue reflects the number of requests that can be queued per controller; so long as there's one scsi_host per controller, it seems logical that the scsi_host ought to have the same can_queue value. To the best of my (still limited) knowledge, this method provides the correct value. The effect of leaving this value set to 1 is terrible performance in the case of either (a) certain Maxtor SAS drives flying solo or (b) flooding several disks with I/O simultaneously (md-raid). There may be more scenarios where we see similar problems that I haven't uncovered. Signed-off-by: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
