2006-06-05[SCSI] iscsi: fix writepsace raceMike Christie
We can race and misset the suspend bit if iscsi_write_space is called then iscsi_send returns with a failure indicating there is no space. To handle this this patch returns a error upwards allowing xmitworker to decide if we need to try and transmit again. For the no write space case xmitworker will not retry, and instead let iscsi_write_space queue it back up if needed (this relies on the work queue code to properly requeue us if needed).

2006-06-05[SCSI] iscsi: don't switch states when just cleaning upMike Christie
If recovery failed or we are in recovery only overwrite the state if we are going to terminate the session or if we logged back in. STOP_CONN_SUSPEND and conn_cnt are not used. We only support a single connection session ATM, so cleanup that code while we are working around it.

2006-05-20[SCSI] iscsi: fix command requeues during iscsi recoveryMike Christie
Do not flush queues then block session. This will cause commands to needlessly swing around on us and remove goofy recovery_failed field and replace with state value. And do not start recovery from within the host reset function. This causeis too many problems becuase open-iscsi was desinged to call out to userspace then have userpscae decide if we should go into recovery or kill the session.

2006-05-10[SCSI] iscsi: increment expstatsn during loginMike Christie
debugged by Ming and Rohan: The problem Ming and Rohan debugged was that during a normal session login, open-iscsi is not incrementing the exp_statsn counter. It was stuck at zero. From the RFC, it looks like if the login response PDU has a successful status then we should be incrementing that value. Also from the RFC, it looks like if when we drop a connection then reconnect, we should be using the exp_statsn from the old connection in the next relogin attempt.

2006-04-14[SCSI] dc395x: dynamically map scatter-gather for PIOGuennadi Liakhovetski
The current dc395x driver uses PIO to transfer up to 4 bytes which do not get transferred by DMA (under unclear circumstances). For this the driver uses page_address() which is broken on highmem. Apart from this the actual calculation of the virtual address is wrong (even without highmem). So, e.g., for reading it reads bytes from the driver to a wrong address and returns wrong data, I guess, for writing it would just output random data to the device. The proper fix, as suggested by many, is to dynamically map data using kmap_atomic(page, KM_BIO_SRC_IRQ) / kunmap_atomic(virt). The reason why it has not been done until now, although I've done some preliminary patches more than a year ago was that nobody interested in fixing this problem was able to reliably reproduce it. Now it changed - with the help from Sebastian Frei (CC'ed) I was able to trigger the PIO path. Thus, I was also able to test and debug it. There are 4 cases when PIO is used in dc395x - data-in / -out with and without scatter-gather. I was able to reproduce and test only data-in with and without SG. So, the data-out path is still untested, but it is also somewhat simpler than the data-in. Fredrik Roubert (also CC'ed) also had PIO triggering on his system, and in his case it was data-out without SG. It would be great if he could test the attached patch on his system, but even if he cannot, I would still request to apply the patch and just wait if anybody cries... Implementation: I put 2 new functions in scsi_lib.c and their declarations in scsi_cmnd.h. I exported them without _GPL, although, I don't feel strongly about that - not many drivers are likely to use them. But there is at least one more - I want to use them in tmscsim.c. Whether these are the right files for the functions and their declarations - not sure either. Actually, they are not scsi-specific, so, might go somewhere around other scattergather magic? They are not platform specific either, and most SG functions are defined under arch/*/... As these issues were discussed previously there were some more routines suggested to manipulate scattergather buffers, I think, some of them were needed around crypto code... So, might be a common place reasonable, like lib/scattergather.c? I am open here. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

2006-04-14[SCSI] iscsi: add libiscsiMike Christie
There is a lot of code duplcited between iscsi_tcp and the upcoming iscsi_iser driver. This patch puts the duplicated code in a lib. There is more code to move around but this takes care of the basics. For iscsi_offload if they use the lib we will probably move some things around. For example in the queuecommand we will not assume that the LLD wants to do queue_work, but it is better to handle that later when we know for sure what iscsi_offload looks like (we could probably do this for iscsi_iser though to). Ideally I would like to get the iscsi_transports modules to a place where all they really have to do is put data on the wire, but how to do that will hopefully be more clear when we see other modules like iscsi_offload. Or maybe iscsi_offload will not use the lib and it will just be iscsi_iser and iscsi_tcp and maybe the iscsi_tcp_tgt if that is allowed in mainline.

2006-04-14[SCSI] iscsi: fix up iscsi ehMike Christie
The current iscsi_tcp eh is not nicely setup for dm-multipath and performs some extra task management functions when they are not needed. The attached patch: - Fixes the TMF issues. If a session is rebuilt then we do not send aborts. - Fixes the problem where if the host reset fired, we would return SUCCESS even though we had not really done anything yet. This ends up causing problem with scsi_error.c's TUR. - If someone has turned on the userspace nop daemon code to try and detect network problems before the scsi command timeout we can now drop and clean up the session before the scsi command timesout and fires the eh speeding up the time it takes for a command to go from one patch to another. For network problems we fail the command with DID_BUS_BUSY so if failfast is set scsi_decide_disposition fails the command up to dm for it to try on another path. - And we had to add some basic iscsi session block code. Previously if we were trying to repair a session we would retrun a MLQUEUE code in the queuecommand. This worked but it was not the most efficient or pretty thing to do since it would take a while to relogin to the target. For iscsi_tcp/open-iscsi a lot of the iscsi error handler is in userspace the block code is pretty bare. We will be adding to that for qla4xxx.

2006-04-14[SCSI] iscsi: add sysfs attrs for uspace sync upMike Christie
For iscsi boot when going from initramfs to the real root we need to stop the userpsace iscsi daemon. To later restart it iscsid needs to be able to rebuild itself and part of that process is matching a session running the kernel with the iscsid representation. To do this the attached patch adds several required iscsi values. If the LLD does not provide them becuase, login is done in userspace, then the transport class and userspace set ths up for the LLD.

2006-04-14[SCSI] iscsi: rm kernel iscsi handles usage for session and connectionMike Christie
from hare@suse.de and michaelc@cs.wisc.edu hw iscsi like qla4xxx does not allocate a host per session and for userspace it is difficult to restart iscsid using the "iscsi handles" for the session and connection, so this patch just has the class or userspace allocate the id for the session and connection. Note: this breaks userspace and requires users to upgrade to the newest open-iscsi tools. Sorry about his but open-iscsi is still too new to say we have a stable user-kernel api and we were not good nough designers to know that other hw iscsi drivers and iscsid itself would need such changes. Actually we sorta did but at the time we did not have the HW available to us so we could only guess. Luckily, the only tools hooking into the class are the open-iscsi ones or other tools like iscsitart hook into the open-iscsi engine from userspace or prgroams like anaconda call our tools so they are not affected.

2006-04-14[SCSI] BLIST_ATTACH_PQ3 flagsKurt Garloff
Some devices report a peripheral qualifier of 3 for LUN 0; with the original code, we would still try a REPORT_LUNS scan (if SCSI level is >= 3 or if we have the BLIST_REPORTLUNS2 passed in), but NOT any sequential scan. Also, the device at LUN 0 (which is not connected according to the PQ) is not registered with the OS. Unfortunately, SANs exist that are SCSI-2 and do NOT support REPORT_LUNS, but report a unknown device with PQ 3 on LUN 0. We still need to scan them, and most probably we even need BLIST_SPARSELUN (and BLIST_LARGELUN). See the bug reference for an infamous example. This is patch 3/3: 3. Implement the blacklist flag BLIST_ATTACH_PQ3 that makes the scsi scanning code register PQ3 devices and continues scanning; only sg will attach thanks to scsi_bus_match().

2006-04-13[SCSI] FC transport: fixes for workq deadlocksJames Smart
As previously reported via Michael Reed, the FC transport took a hit in 2.6.15 (perhaps a little earlier) when we solved a recursion error. There are 2 deadlocks occurring: - With scan and the delete items sharing the same workq, flushing the workq for the delete code was getting it stalled behind a very long running scan code path. - There's a deadlock where scsi_remove_target() has to sit behind scsi_scan_target() due to contention over the scan_lock(). This patch resolves the 1st deadlock and significantly reduces the odds of the second. So far, we have only replicated the 2nd deadlock on a highly-parallel SMP system. More on the 2nd deadlock in a following email. This patch reworks the transport to: - Only use the scsi host workq for scanning - Use 2 other workq's internally. One for deletions, the other for scheduled deletions. Originally, we tried this with a single workq, but the occassional flushes of the scheduled queues was hitting the second deadlock with a slightly higher frequency. In the future, we'll look at the LLDD's and the transport to see if we can get rid of this extra overhead. - When moving to the other workq's we tightened up some object states and some lock handling. - Properly syncs adds/deletes - minor code cleanups - directly reference fc_host_attrs, rather than through attribute macros - flush the right workq on delayed work cancel failures. Large kudos to Michael Reed who has been working this issue for the last month. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

2006-02-14[PATCH] add scsi_execute_in_process_context() APIJames Bottomley
We have several points in the SCSI stack (primarily for our device functions) where we need to guarantee process context, but (given the place where the last reference was released) we cannot guarantee this. This API gets around the issue by executing the function directly if the caller has process context, but scheduling a workqueue to execute in process context if the caller doesn't have it. Unfortunately, it requires memory allocation in interrupt context, but it's better than what we have previously.

This is the second version of the patch to address Christoph's comments. Instead of doing the lib, I just kept everything in scsi_trnapsort_iscsi.c like the FC and SPI class. This was becuase the driver model and sysfs class is tied to the session and connection setup so separating did not buy very much at this time. The reason for this patch was becuase HW iscsi LLDs like qla4xxx cannot use the iscsi class becuase the scsi_host was tied to the interface and class code. This patch just seperates the session from scsi host so that LLDs that allocate the host per some resource like pci device can still use the class. This is also fixes a couple refcount bugs that can be triggered when users have a sysfs file open, close the session, then read or write to the file.

2006-01-14[SCSI] remove target parent limitiationChristoph Hellwig
When James Smart fixed the issue of the userspace scan atributes crashing the system with the FC transport class he added a patch to let the transport class check if the parent is valid for a given transport class. When adding support for the integrated raid of fusion sas devices we ran into a problem with that, as it didn't allow adding virtual raid volumes without the transport class knowing about it. So this patch adds a user_scan attribute instead, that takes over from scsi_scan_host_selected if the transport class sets it and thus lets the transport class control the user-initiated scanning. As this plugs the hole about user-initiated scanning the target_parent hook goes away and we rely on callers of the scanning routines to do something sensible. For SAS this meant I had to switch from a spinlock to a mutex to synchronize the topology linked lists, in FC they were completely unsynchronized which seems wrong.
