2008-01-23[SCSI] aacraid: improve queue balancingSalyzyn, Mark
The adapter queue is divided up equally to all the arrays to prevent command starvation to any individual array. On the other hand, physical targets are only granted a queue depth of one each. The code prior to this patch used to deal with the incremental discovery of targets, but the driver knows how many arrays are present prior to the scan so this knowledge is used to generate a better estimate for the queue depth. Remove the capability of 'physical=0' from preventing access to the class of adapters that have the RAID/SCSI mode of operation since none of the physicals on the SCSI channel are candidates ever for an array. As always, the user can override this default queue depth policy by making the appropriate adjustments utilizing sysfs.

2008-01-23[SCSI] aacraid: OS panic after Adapter panic (hardening).Salyzyn, Mark
In experiments in the lab we managed to trigger an Adapter firmware panic (BlinkLED) coincidentally while several pass-through ioctl command from the management software were outstanding on a bug only present on a class of RAID Adapters that require a hardware reset rather than a commanded reset. The net result was an attempt to time out the management software command as if it came from the SCSI layer resulting in an OS panic. Adapters that use commanded reset, management commands are returned failed by the Adapter correctly. The adapter firmware panic that resulted in this condition was also resolved, and there were no adapters in the field with this specific firmware bug so we do not expect any field reports. This is a rare or unlikely corner condition, and no reports have ever been forwarded from the field.

2008-01-23[SCSI] aacraid: fix big endian issuesSalyzyn, Mark
Big endian systems issues discovered in the aacraid driver. Somewhat reverses a patch from November 7th of last year that removed swap operations because they formerly were being assigned to an u8 array when they should have been assigned to an le32 array. This patch is largely inert for any little endian processor architecture. It resolves a bug in delivering the BlinkLED AIF event to registered applications when the adapter or associated hardware was reset due to ill health. A rare corner case occurrence, also largely unnoticed by any as it was a new (untested!) feature.

2008-01-23[SCSI] scsi_transport_spi: convert to attribute groupsJames Bottomley
This conversion makes full use of the is_visible() callback on attribute groups. Now, each device appears only with its capability flags in the transport class directory. Previously each device appeared with the capability of the host, so this is a functionality improvement. Converting to attribute groups allows us to sweep away most of the home grown #defines that were effectively doing the same thing.

2008-01-23[SCSI] add missing transport configure points for target and hostJames Bottomley
While trying to convert the SPI transport class to attribute groups, I discovered that we don't actually have any transport configure points for either the target or the host. This patch adds these missing transport class triggers. The host one is simply done after the add, the target one tries to be more clever and add it after devices may have been placed on the target (so the device configure will have set up the target parameters).

2008-01-11[SCSI] relax scsi dma alignmentJames Bottomley
This patch relaxes the default SCSI DMA alignment from 512 bytes to 4 bytes. I remember from previous discussions that usb and firewire have sector size alignment requirements, so I upped their alignments in the respective slave allocs. The reason for doing this is so that we don't get such a huge amount of copy overhead in bio_copy_user() for udev. (basically all inquiries it issues can now be directly mapped).

A target should never send us a itt that does not match a running task. If it does we do not really know what is coming down after the header, unless we evaluate the hdr and do some guessing sometimes.

2008-01-11[SCSI] libiscsi: fix shutdownMike Christie
We were using the device delete sysfs file to remove each device then logout. Now in 2.6.21 this will not work because the sysfs delete file returns immediately and does not wait for the device removal to complete. This causes a hang if a cache sync is needed during shutdown.

2008-01-11[SCSI] libiscsi: grab eh_mutex during host resetMike Christie
I thought we may not need the eh mutex during host reset, but that is wrong with the new shutdown code. When start_session_recovery sets the state to terminate then drops the session lock. The scsi eh thread could then grab the session lock see that we are terminating and then return failed to scsi-ml. scsi-ml's eh then owns the command and will do whatever it wants with it.

2008-01-11[SCSI] libiscsi, iscsi_tcp: iscsi pool cleanupOlaf Kirch
iscsi_pool_init simplified iscsi_pool_init currently has a lot of duplicate kfree() calls it does when some allocation fails. This patch simplifies the code a little by using iscsi_pool_free to tear down the pool in case of an error. iscsi_pool_init also returns a copy of the item array to the caller. Not all callers use this array, so we make it optional. Instead of allocating a second array and return that, allocate just one array, of twice the size. Update users of iscsi_pool_{init,free} This patch drops the (now useless) second argument to iscsi_pool_free, and updates all callers. It also removes the ctask->r2ts array, which was never used anyway. Since the items argument to iscsi_pool_init is now optional, we can pass NULL instead.

2008-01-11[SCSI] iscsi_tcp, libiscsi: initial AHS SupportBoaz Harrosh
at libiscsi generic code - currently code assumes a storage space of pdu header is allocated at llds ctask and is pointed to by iscsi_cmd_task->hdr. Here I add a hdr_max field pertaining to that storage, and an hdr_len that accumulates the current use of the pdu-header. - Add an iscsi_next_hdr() inline which returns the next free space to write new Header at. Also iscsi_next_hdr() is used to retrieve the address at which to write the header-digest. - Add iscsi_add_hdr(length). What the user do is calls iscsi_next_hdr() for address of the new header, than calls iscsi_add_hdr(length) with the size of the new header. iscsi_add_hdr() will check if space is available and update to the new size. length must be padded according to standard. - Add 2 padding inline helpers thanks to Olaf. Current patch does not use them but Following patches will. Also moved definition of ISCSI_PAD_LEN to iscsi_proto.h which had PAD_WORD_LEN that was never used anywhere. - Let iscsi_prep_scsi_cmd_pdu() signal an Error return since now it is possible that it will fail. - I was tired of yet again writing a "this is a digest" comment next to sizeof(__u32) so I defined a new ISCSI_DIGEST_SIZE. Now I don't need any comments. Changed all places that used sizeof(__u32) or "4" in connection to a digest. iscsi_tcp specific code - At struct iscsi_tcp_cmd_task allocate maximum space allowed in standard for all headers following the iscsi_cmd header. and mark it so in iscsi_tcp_session_create() - At iscsi_send_cmd_hdr() retrieve the correct headers size and write header digest at iscsi_next_hdr().

2008-01-11[SCSI] aacraid: fix driver failure with Dell PowerEdge Expandable RAID ↵Salyzyn, Mark
Controller 3/Di As reported in http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D9133 it was discovered that the PERC line of controllers lacked a key 64 bit ScatterGather capable SCSI pass-through function. The adapters are still capable of 64 bit ScatterGather I/O commands, but these two can not be mixed. This problem was exacerbated by the introduction of the SCSI Generic access to the DASD physical devices. The fix for users before this patch is applied is aacraid.dacmode=3D0 on the kernel command line to disable 64 bit I/O. The enclosed patch introduces a new adapter quirk and tries to limp along by enabling pass-through in situations where memory is 32 bit addressable on 64 bit machines, or disable the pass-through functions altogether. I expect that the check for 32 bit addressable memory to be controversial in that it can be incorrect in non-Dell non-Intel systems that PERC would never be installed under, the alternative is to disable pass-through in all cases which could be reported as another regression. Pass-through is used for SCSI Generic access to the physical devices, or for the management applications to properly function. In systems where this patch has disabled pass-through because it is unsupportable in combination with I/O performance, the user can choose to enable pass-through by turning off dacmode (aacraid.dacmode=3D0) or limiting the discovered kernel memory (mem=3D4G) with an associated loss in runtime performance. If we chose instead to turn off 64 bit dacmode for the adapters with this quirk, then this would be reported as another regression.
