git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of different areas. The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric drivers tree-wide. There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a completely lockless code-path. It also removes the original hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint. The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes. The highlights include: - Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi) - Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker (Christophe Vu-Brugier) - Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover) - Move se_node_acl allocation into target-core code (hch) - Add crc_t10dif_update common helper (akinobu + mkp) - Handle target-core odd SGL mapping for data transfer memory (akinobu) - Move transport ID handling into target-core (hch) - Move task tag into struct se_cmd + support 64-bit tags (bart) - Convert se_node_acl->device_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch + paulmck) - Convert se_portal_group->tpg_lun_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch + paulmck) - Simplify target backend driver registration (hch) - Consolidate + simplify target backend attribute implementations (hch + nab) - Subsume se_port + t10_alua_tg_pt_gp_member into se_lun (hch) - Drop lun_sep_lock for se_lun->lun_se_dev RCU usage (hch + nab) - Drop unnecessary core_tpg_register TFO parameter (nab) - Use 64-bit LUNs tree-wide (hannes) - Drop left-over TARGET_MAX_LUNS_PER_TRANSPORT limit (hannes)" * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (76 commits) target: Bump core version to v5.0 target: remove target_core_configfs.h target: remove unused TARGET_CORE_CONFIG_ROOT define target: consolidate version defines target: implement WRITE_SAME with UNMAP bit using ->execute_unmap target: simplify UNMAP handling target: replace se_cmd->execute_rw with a protocol_data field target/user: Fix inconsistent kmap_atomic/kunmap_atomic target: Send UA when changing LUN inventory target: Send UA upon LUN RESET tmr completion target: Send UA on ALUA target port group change target: Convert se_lun->lun_deve_lock to normal spinlock target: use 'se_dev_entry' when allocating UAs target: Remove 'ua_nacl' pointer from se_ua structure target_core_alua: Correct UA handling when switching states xen-scsiback: Fix compile warning for 64-bit LUN target: Remove TARGET_MAX_LUNS_PER_TRANSPORT target: use 64-bit LUNs target: Drop duplicate + unused se_dev_check_wce target: Drop unnecessary core_tpg_register TFO parameter ...

2015-05-02target/user: Disallow full passthrough (pass_level=0)Andy Grover
TCMU requires more work to correctly handle both user handlers that want all SCSI commands (pass_level=0) for a se_device, and also handlers that just want I/O commands and let the others be emulated by the kernel (pass_level=1). Only support the latter for now. For full passthrough, we will need to support a second se_subsystem_api template, due to configfs attributes being different between the two modes. Thus pass_level is extraneous, and we can remove it. The ABI break for TCMU v2 is already applied for this release, so it's best to do this now to avoid another ABI break in the future.

2015-04-19target: Version 2 of TCMU ABIAndy Grover
The initial version of TCMU (in 3.18) does not properly handle bidirectional SCSI commands -- those with both an in and out buffer. In looking to fix this it also became clear that TCMU's support for adding new types of entries (opcodes) to the command ring was broken. We need to fix this now, so that future issues can be handled properly by adding new opcodes. We make the most of this ABI break by enabling bidi cmd handling within TCMP_OP_CMD opcode. Add an iov_bidi_cnt field to tcmu_cmd_entry.req. This enables TCMU to describe bidi commands, but further kernel work is needed for full bidi support. Enlarge tcmu_cmd_entry_hdr by 32 bits by pulling in cmd_id and __pad1. Turn __pad1 into two 8 bit flags fields, for kernel-set and userspace-set flags, "kflags" and "uflags" respectively. Update version fields so userspace can tell the interface is changed. Update tcmu-design.txt with details of how new stuff works: - Specify an additional requirement for userspace to set UNKNOWN_OP (bit 0) in hdr.uflags for unknown/unhandled opcodes. - Define how Data-In and Data-Out fields are described in req.iov[] Changed in v2: - Change name of SKIPPED bit to UNKNOWN bit - PAD op does not set the bit any more - Change len_op helper functions to take just len_op, not the whole struct - Change version to 2 in missed spots, and use defines - Add 16 unused bytes to cmd_entry.req, in case additional SAM cmd parameters need to be included - Add iov_dif_cnt field to specify buffers used for DIF info in iov[] - Rearrange fields to naturally align cdb_off - Handle if userspace sets UNKNOWN_OP by indicating failure of the cmd - Wrap some overly long UPDATE_HEAD lines (Add missing req.iov_bidi_cnt + req.iov_dif_cnt zeroing - Ilias) Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <agrover@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Ilias Tsitsimpis <iliastsi@arrikto.com> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>

Instead of calling target_fabric_configfs_init() + target_fabric_configfs_register() / target_fabric_configfs_deregister() target_fabric_configfs_free() from every target driver, rewrite the API so that we have simple register/unregister functions that operate on a const operations vector. This patch also fixes a memory leak in several target drivers. Several target drivers namely called target_fabric_configfs_deregister() without calling target_fabric_configfs_free(). A large part of this patch is based on earlier changes from Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@sandisk.com>.

2012-09-17target: Simplify fabric sense data length handlingRoland Dreier
Every fabric driver has to supply a se_tfo->set_fabric_sense_len() method, just so iSCSI can return an offset of 2. However, every fabric driver is already allocating a sense buffer and passing it into the target core, either via transport_init_se_cmd() or target_submit_cmd(). So instead of having iSCSI pass the start of its sense buffer into the core and then later tell the core to skip the first 2 bytes, it seems easier for iSCSI just to do the offset of 2 when it passes the sense buffer into the core. Then we can drop the se_tfo->set_fabric_sense_len() everywhere, and just add a couple of lines of code to iSCSI to set the sense data length to the beginning of the buffer right before it sends it over the network.
