2014-10-06xen: remove DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() macroDavid Vrabel
The DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() macro looks a bit weird and causes sparse errors. Replace the uses with standard structure definitions instead. This is similar to pci and usb device registration. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>
2014-10-03xen-scsifront: don't deadlock if the ring becomes fullDavid Vrabel
scsifront_action_handler() will deadlock on host->host_lock, if the ring is full and it has to wait for entries to become available. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Reviewed-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>
2014-09-23xen-scsifront: use GFP_ATOMIC under spin_lockDan Carpenter
This function is only called with a spin_lock held and IRQs disabled. The allocation is not allowed to sleep and NOIO is not sufficient, it has to be ATOMIC.

2014-09-23xen-scsifront: Add Xen PV SCSI frontend driverJuergen Gross
Introduces the Xen pvSCSI frontend. With pvSCSI it is possible for a Xen domU to issue SCSI commands to a SCSI LUN assigned to that domU. The SCSI commands are passed to the pvSCSI backend in a driver domain (usually Dom0) which is owner of the physical device. This allows e.g. to use SCSI tape drives in a Xen domU. The code is taken from the pvSCSI implementation in Xen done by Fujitsu based on Linux kernel 2.6.18. Changes from the original version are: - port to upstream kernel - put all code in just one source file - move module to appropriate location in kernel tree - adapt to Linux style guide - some minor code simplifications - replace constants with defines - remove not used defines - add support for larger SG lists by putting them in a granted page Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Acked-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>
