2008-10-13[SCSI] scsi_error: fix target reset handlingJames Bottomley
There's a target reset bug. This loop: for (id = 0; id <= shost->max_id; id++) { Never terminates if shost->max_id is set to ~0, like aic94xx does. It's also pretty inefficient since you mostly have compact target numbers, but the max_id can be very high. The best way would be to sort the recovery list by target id and skip them if they're equal, but even a worst case O(N^2) traversal is probably OK here, so fix it by finding the next highest target number (assuming n+1) and terminating when there isn't one.

2008-10-13[SCSI] modify scsi to handle new fail fast flags.Mike Christie
This checks the errors the scsi-ml determined were retryable and returns if we should fast fail it based on the request fail fast flags. Without the patch, drivers like lpfc, qla2xxx and fcoe would return DID_ERROR for what it determines is a temporary communication problem. There is no loss of connectivity at that time and the driver thinks that it would be fast to retry at the driver level. SCSI-ml will however sees fast fail on the request and DID_ERROR and will fast fail the io. This will then cause dm-multipath to fail the path and possibley switch target controllers when we should be retrying at the scsi layer. We also were fast failing device errors to dm multiapth when unless the scsi_dh modules think otherwis we want to retry at the scsi layer because multipath can only retry the IO like scsi should have done. multipath is a little dumber though because it does not what the error was for and assumes that it should fail the paths.

2008-10-13[SCSI] scsi: add transport host byte errors (v3)Mike Christie
Currently, if there is a transport problem the iscsi drivers will return outstanding commands (commands being exeucted by the driver/fw/hw) with DID_BUS_BUSY and block the session so no new commands can be queued. Commands that are caught between the failure handling and blocking are failed with DID_IMM_RETRY or one of the scsi ml queuecommand return values. When the recovery_timeout fires, the iscsi drivers then fail IO with DID_NO_CONNECT. For fcp, some drivers will fail some outstanding IO (disk but possibly not tape) with DID_BUS_BUSY or DID_ERROR or some other value that causes a retry and hits the scsi_error.c failfast check, block the rport, and commands caught in the race are failed with DID_IMM_RETRY. Other drivers, may hold onto all IO and wait for the terminate_rport_io or dev_loss_tmo_callbk to be called. The following patches attempt to unify what upper layers will see drivers like multipath can make a good guess. This relies on drivers being hooked into their transport class. This first patch just defines two new host byte errors so drivers can return the same value for when a rport/session is blocked and for when the fast_io_fail_tmo fires. The idea is that if the LLD/class detects a problem and is going to block a rport/session, then if the LLD wants or must return the command to scsi-ml, then it can return it with DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED. This will requeue the IO into the same scsi queue it came from, until the fast io fail timer fires and the class decides what to do. When using multipath and the fast_io_fail_tmo fires then the class can fail commands with DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST or drivers can use DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST in their terminate_rport_io callbacks or the equivlent in iscsi if we ever implement more advanced recovery methods. A LLD, like lpfc, could continue to return DID_ERROR and then it will hit the normal failfast path, so drivers do not have fully be ported to work better. The point of the patches is that upper layers will not see a failure that could be recovered from while the rport/session is blocked until fast_io_fail_tmo/recovery_timeout fires. V3 Remove some comments. V2 Fixed patch/diff errors and renamed DID_TRANSPORT_BLOCKED to DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED. V1 initial patch.

2008-10-09block: unify request timeout handlingJens Axboe
Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling. Move those bits to the block layer. Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot less timer fiddling.

2008-07-26[SCSI] Command protection operationMartin K. Petersen
Controllers that support DMA of protection information must be told explicitly how to handle the I/O. The controller has no knowledge of the protection capabilities of the target device so this information must be passed in the scsi_cmnd. - The protection operation tells the HBA whether to generate, strip or verify protection information. - The protection type tells the HBA which layout the target is formatted with. This is necessary because the controller must be able to correctly interpret the included protection information in order to verify it. - When a scsi_cmnd is reused for error handling the protection operation must be cleared and saved while error handling is in progress. - prot_op and prot_type are placed in an existing hole in scsi_cmnd and don't cause the structure to grow.

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.

2008-05-02[SCSI] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd bufferBoaz Harrosh
- struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own. This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd could function without a request attached. So clean that up. - Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd->cmnd. - Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it and is reflected in the patch below is. MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB as per the SCSI standard and is not related to the implementation. BLK_MAX_CDB. - The allocated space at the request level - I have audit all ISA drivers and made sure none use ->cmnd in a DMA Operation. Same audit was done by Andi Kleen. (*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, (unlike the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command). This is actually not exactly true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's. So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

2008-04-07[SCSI] scsi_error: add target reset handlerMike Christie
The problem is that serveral drivers are sending a target reset from the device reset handler, and if we have multiple devices a target reset gets sent for each device when only one would be sufficient. And if we do a target reset it affects all the commands on the target so the device reset handler code only cleaning up one devices's commands makes programming the driver a little more difficult than it should be. This patch adds a target reset handler, which drivers can use to send a target reset. If successful it cleans up the commands for a devices accessed through that starget.

2008-01-30[SCSI] bidirectional command supportBoaz Harrosh
At the block level bidi request uses req->next_rq pointer for a second bidi_read request. At Scsi-midlayer a second scsi_data_buffer structure is used for the bidi_read part. This bidi scsi_data_buffer is put on request->next_rq->special. Struct scsi_cmnd is not changed. - Define scsi_bidi_cmnd() to return true if it is a bidi request and a second sgtable was allocated. - Define scsi_in()/scsi_out() to return the in or out scsi_data_buffer from this command This API is to isolate users from the mechanics of bidi. - Define scsi_end_bidi_request() to do what scsi_end_request() does but for a bidi request. This is necessary because bidi commands are a bit tricky here. (See comments in body) - scsi_release_buffers() will also release the bidi_read scsi_data_buffer - scsi_io_completion() on bidi commands will now call scsi_end_bidi_request() and return. - The previous work done in scsi_init_io() is now done in a new scsi_init_sgtable() (which is 99% identical to old scsi_init_io()) The new scsi_init_io() will call the above twice if needed also for the bidi_read command. Only at this point is a command bidi. - In scsi_error.c at scsi_eh_prep/restore_cmnd() make sure bidi-lld is not confused by a get-sense command that looks like bidi. This is done by puting NULL at request->next_rq, and restoring.

2008-01-06Revert "scsi: revert "[SCSI] Get rid of scsi_cmnd->done""Linus Torvalds
This reverts commit ac40532ef0b8649e6f7f83859ea0de1c4ed08a19, which gets us back the original cleanup of 6f5391c283d7fdcf24bf40786ea79061919d1e1d. It turns out that the bug that was triggered by that commit was apparently not actually triggered by that commit at all, and just the testing conditions had changed enough to make it appear to be due to it. The real problem seems to have been found by Peter Osterlund: "pktcdvd sets it [block device size] when opening the /dev/pktcdvd device, but when the drive is later opened as /dev/scd0, there is nothing that sets it back. (Btw, 40944 is possible if the disk is a CDRW that was formatted with "cdrwtool -m 10236".) The problem is that pktcdvd opens the cd device in non-blocking mode when pktsetup is run, and doesn't close it again until pktsetup -d is run. The effect is that if you meanwhile open the cd device, blkdev.c:do_open() doesn't call bd_set_size() because bdev->bd_openers is non-zero." In particular, to repeat the bug (regardless of whether commit 6f5391c283d7fdcf24bf40786ea79061919d1e1d is applied or not): " 1. Start with an empty drive. 2. pktsetup 0 /dev/scd0 3. Insert a CD containing an isofs filesystem. 4. mount /dev/pktcdvd/0 /mnt/tmp 5. umount /mnt/tmp 6. Press the eject button. 7. Insert a DVD containing a non-writable filesystem. 8. mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/tmp 9. find /mnt/tmp -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sha1sum >/dev/null 10. If the DVD contains data beyond the physical size of a CD, you get I/O errors in the terminal, and dmesg reports lots of "attempt to access beyond end of device" errors." which in turn is because the nested open after the media change won't cause the size to be set properly (because the original open still holds the block device, and we only do the bd_set_size() when we don't have other people holding the device open). The proper fix for that is probably to just do something like bdev->bd_inode->i_size = (loff_t)get_capacity(disk)<<9; in fs/block_dev.c:do_open() even for the cases where we're not the original opener (but *not* call bd_set_size(), since that will also change the block size of the device).

2007-07-17Freezer: make kernel threads nonfreezable by defaultRafael J. Wysocki
Currently, the freezer treats all tasks as freezable, except for the kernel threads that explicitly set the PF_NOFREEZE flag for themselves. This approach is problematic, since it requires every kernel thread to either set PF_NOFREEZE explicitly, or call try_to_freeze(), even if it doesn't care for the freezing of tasks at all. It seems better to only require the kernel threads that want to or need to be frozen to use some freezer-related code and to remove any freezer-related code from the other (nonfreezable) kernel threads, which is done in this patch. The patch causes all kernel threads to be nonfreezable by default (ie. to have PF_NOFREEZE set by default) and introduces the set_freezable() function that should be called by the freezable kernel threads in order to unset PF_NOFREEZE. It also makes all of the currently freezable kernel threads call set_freezable(), so it shouldn't cause any (intentional) change of behaviour to appear. Additionally, it updates documentation to describe the freezing of tasks more accurately. [akpm@linux-foundation.org: build fixes] Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Currently, the scsi error handler will issue a START_UNIT command if the drive indicates it needs its motor started and the allow_restart flag is set in the scsi_device. If, after the scsi error handler invokes a host adapter reset due to error recovery, a device is in a unit attention state AND also needs a START_UNIT, that device will be placed offline. The disk array devices on an ipr RAID adapter will do exactly this when in a dual initiator configuration. This patch adds a single retry to the EH initiated START_UNIT.

2007-04-02[SCSI]: Fix scsi_send_eh_cmnd scatterlist handlingDavid S. Miller
This fixes a regression caused by commit: 2dc611de5a3fd955cd0298c50691d4c05046db97 The sense buffer code in scsi_send_eh_cmnd was changed to use alloc_page() and a scatter list, but the sense data copy was not updated to match so what we actually get in the sense buffer is total grabage starting with the kernel address of the struct page we got. Basically the stack frame of scsi_send_eh_cmd() is what ends up in the sense buffer. Depending upon how pointers look on a given platform, you can end up getting sr_ioctl.c errors when you mount a cdrom. If the CDROM gives a check condition for GPCMD_GET_CONFIGURATION issued by drivers/cdrom/cdrom.c:cdrom_mmc_profile(), sr_ioctl will spit out this error message in sr_do_ioctl() with the way pointers are on sparc64: default: printk(KERN_ERR "%s: CDROM (ioctl) error, command: ", cd->cdi.name); __scsi_print_command(cgc->cmd); scsi_print_sense_hdr("sr", &sshdr); err = -EIO; This is the error Tom Callaway reported in: http://marc.info/?l=linux-sparc&m=117407453208101&w=2 Anyways, fix this by using page_address(sgl.page) which is OK because we know this is low-mem due to GFP_ATOMIC.

2007-03-20[SCSI] expose eh_timed_out to the host templateJames Bottomley
It looks like megaraid_sas at least needs this to throttle its commands as they begin to time out. The code keeps the existing transport template use of eh_timed_out (and allows the transport to override the host if they both have this callback).

2007-02-03[SCSI] scsi_error: Fix lost EH commandsBrian King
If an EH command times out today, the LLDD's abort handler will be called to abort the command. It is assumed that this completes successfully, which can result in the command getting completed later resulting in an oops. Improve the current implementation by escalating all the way to host reset if necessary in order to clean up the EH command.

2006-08-26[SCSI] fix scsi_send_eh_cmnd regressionMike Christie
The callers of scsi_send_eh_cmnd are setting the cmnd buffer, and then scsi_send_eh_cmnd is copying that updated buffer to the old_cmnd variable. Then after the command runs, we end up copying that old_cmnd var which has the new cmnd to the scsi command buffer. When this command gets recent, all types of fun things happen like getting TUR or START_STOP commands with data and scatterlists. This patch made against scsi-rc-fixes, has the callers of scsi_send_eh_cmnd pass in the command so scsi_send_eh_cmnd can do the right thing. This should go into 2.6.18 since this fixes a regression added when we removed some of the scsi_cmnd fields and replaced them with local variables.

2006-07-09[SCSI] hide EH backup data outside the scsi_cmndChristoph Hellwig
Currently struct scsi_cmnd has various fields that are used to backup original data after the corresponding fields have been overridden for EH commands. This means drivers can easily get at it and misuse it. Due to the old_ naming this doesn't happen for most of them, but two that have different names have been used wrong a lot (see previous patch). Another downside is that they unessecarily bloat the scsi_cmnd size. This patch moves them onstack in scsi_send_eh_cmnd to fix those two issues aswell as allowing future EH fixes like moving the EH command submissions to use SG lists like everything else.

2006-06-10[SCSI] remove RQ_SCSI_* flagsChristoph Hellwig
The RQ_SCSI_* flags are a vestiage of a long past history. The EH code still sets them but we never make use of that information. The other users is pluto.c which never had a chance to work but needs to be kept compiling to keep Davem happy, so copy over the definition there. We could probably get rid of RQ_ACTIVE/RQ_INACTIVE aswell with some work, there's only two more or less bogus looking uses in ubd and scsi.

2006-05-20[PATCH] SCSI: make scsi_implement_eh() generic API for SCSI transportsTejun Heo
libata implemented a feature to schedule EH without an associated EH by manipulating shost->host_eh_scheduled in ata_scsi_schedule_eh() directly. Move this function to scsi_error.c and rename it to scsi_schedule_eh(). It is now an exported API for SCSI transports and exported via new header file drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_api.h This patch also de-export scsi_eh_wakeup() which was exported specifically for ata_scsi_schedule_eh().

2006-05-15[PATCH] SCSI: implement shost->host_eh_scheduledTejun Heo
libata needs to invoke EH without scmd. This patch adds shost->host_eh_scheduled to implement such behavior. Currently the only user of this feature is libata and no general interface is defined. This patch simply adds handling for host_eh_scheduled where needed and exports scsi_eh_wakeup() to modules. The rest is upto libata. This is the result of the following discussion. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/23853/focus=9760 In short, SCSI host is not supposed to know about exceptions unrelated to specific device or command. Such exceptions should be handled by transport layer proper. However, the distinction is not essential to ATA and libata is planning to depart from SCSI, so, for the time being, libata will be using SCSI EH to handle such exceptions.
