2008-10-13[SCSI] scsi_dh_alua: remove REQ_NOMERGEMike Christie
We do not need to set REQ_NOMERGE because when the module calls blk_execute_rq -> blk_execute_rq_nowait, blk_execute_rq_nowait sets it for us. This brings all the modules in sync for those bits.

2008-10-13[SCSI] block: separate failfast into multiple bits.Mike Christie
Multipath is best at handling transport errors. If it gets a device error then there is not much the multipath layer can do. It will just access the same device but from a different path. This patch breaks up failfast into device, transport and driver errors. The multipath layers (md and dm mutlipath) only ask the lower levels to fast fail transport errors. The user of failfast, read ahead, will ask to fast fail on all errors. Note that blk_noretry_request will return true if any failfast bit is set. This allows drivers that do not support the multipath failfast bits to continue to fail on any failfast error like before. Drivers like scsi that are able to fail fast specific errors can check for the specific fail fast type. In the next patch I will convert scsi.

2008-07-26[SCSI] scsi_dh: attach to hardware handler from dm-mpathHannes Reinecke
multipath keeps a separate device table which may be more current than the built-in one. So we should make sure to always call ->attach whenever a multipath map with hardware handler is instantiated. And we should call ->detach on removal, too.

This patch converts the EMC device handler to use a proper state machine. We now also parse the extended INQUIRY information to determine if long trespass commands are supported. And we're now using the long trespass command correctly. And finally there's now an check at init time to refuse to attach to devices not supporting EMC-specific VPD pages.

2008-07-26[SCSI] scsi_dh: Add 'dh_state' sysfs attributeHannes Reinecke
Implement a 'dh_state' sdev attribute for dynamic device handler manipulation. A read on the attribute will return the name of the currently attached device handler or 'detached' if no handler is attached. The attribute allows the following strings to be written: - The name of the device handler to be attached if the state is 'detached'. - 'activate' to trigger path activation if a device handler is attached. - 'detach' to detach the currently attached device handler.

2008-07-26[SCSI] scsi_dh: Implement common device table handlingHannes Reinecke
Instead of having each and every driver implement its own device table scanning code we should rather implement a common routine and scan the device tables there. This allows us also to implement a general notifier chain callback for all device handler instead for one per handler.

2008-06-05[SCSI] scsi_dh: add infrastructure for SCSI Device HandlersChandra Seetharaman
Some of the storage devices (that can be accessed through multiple paths), do need some special handling for 1. Activating the passive path of the storage access. 2. Decode and handle the special sense codes returned by the devices. 3. Handle the I/Os being sent to the passive path, especially during the device probe time. when accessed through multiple paths. As of today this special device handling is done at the dm-multipath layer using dm-handlers. That works well for (1); for (2) to be handled at dm layer, scsi sense information need to be exported from SCSI to dm-layer, which is not very attractive; (3) cannot be done at all at the dm layer. Device handler has been moved to SCSI mainly to handle (2) and (3) properly.
