2008-01-11[SCSI] tgt: convert to use the data buffer accessorsFUJITA Tomonori
- convert to use the new accessors for the sg lists and the parameters. Signed-off-by: FUJITA Tomonori <fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
2007-10-12[SCSI] tgt: add I_T nexus supportFUJITA Tomonori
tgt uses scsi_host as I_T nexus. This works for ibmvstgt because it creates one scsi_host for one initiator. However, other target drivers don't work like that. This adds I_T nexus support, which enable one scsi_host to handle multiple initiators. New scsi_tgt_it_nexus_create/destroy functions are expected be called transport classes. For example, ibmvstgt creates an initiator remote port, then the srp transport calls tgt_it_nexus_create. tgt doesn't manages I_T nexus, instead it tells tgtd, user-space daemon, to create a new I_T nexus. On the receiving the response from tgtd, tgt calls shost->transportt->it_nexus_response. transports should notify a lld. The srp transport uses it_nexus_response callback in srp_function_template to do that.

2007-03-11[SCSI] tgt: fix sesnse buffer problemsFUJITA Tomonori
This patch simplify the way to notify LLDs of the command completion and addresses the following sense buffer problems: - can't handle both data and sense. - forces user-space to use aligned sense buffer tgt copies sense_data from userspace to cmnd->sense_buffer (if necessary), maps user-space pages (if necessary) and then calls host->transfer_response (host->transfer_data is removed).

2007-02-16[SCSI] tgt: fix the user/kernel ring buffer interfaceFUJITA Tomonori
This patches fixes two bugs in the scsi target infrastructure's user/kernel interface. - It wrongly assumes that the ring buffer size of the interface (64KB) is larger than or equal to the system page size. This patch sets the ring buffer size to PAGE_SIZE if the system page size is larger. - It uses PAGE_SIZE in the header file exported to userspace. This patch removes it.

2007-02-12[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 6Arjan van de Ven
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2006-11-25[SCSI] scsi tgt: scsi target user and kernel communication interfaceFUJITA Tomonori
The user-space daemon and tgt kernel module need bi-directional kernel/user high-performance interface, however, mainline provides no standard interface like that. This patch adds shared memory interface between kernel and user spaces like some other drivers do by using own character device. The user-space daemon and tgt kernel module creates shared memory via mmap and use it like ring buffer. poll (kernel to user) and write (user to kernel) system calls are used for notification.
