2010-02-17[SCSI] fcoe: Only rmmod fcoe.ko if there are no active connectionsRob Love
Currently we're gracefully tearing down each active connection when fcoe.ko is removed. We shouldn't allow the user to destroy connections by removing the module. We should force the user to destroy each connection and then the module can be removed. This patch makes it so a refrerence count on the module is taken each time a fcoe_interface is created. The reference count is dropped when the fcoe_interface is destroyed. This makes it so that module_exit() doesn't get called unless all fcoe_interfaces have been destroyed. This patch leaves the removal of interfaces in the module_exit routine so that if the user does a 'rmmod -f' we'll clean everything up before removing the module. The module_put line was put before the out_putdev goto line because we should only be decrementing the reference count if a fcoe_interface is actually destroyed. If we can't find the netdev or the fcoe_interface then it's assumed that something else has destroyed the fcoe_interface and it would have decremented the reference count at that time.

2010-01-17[SCSI] scsi_lib: Fix bug in completion of bidi commandsBoaz Harrosh
Because of the terrible structuring of scsi-bidi-commands it breaks some of the life time rules of a scsi-command. It is now not allowed to free up the block-request before cleanup and partial deallocation of the scsi-command. (Which is not so for none bidi commands) The right fix to this problem would be to make bidi command a first citizen by allocating a scsi_sdb pointer at scsi command just like cmd->prot_sdb. The bidi sdb should be allocated/deallocated as part of the get/put_command (Again like the prot_sdb) and the current decoupling of scsi_cmnd and blk-request should be kept. For now make sure scsi_release_buffers() is called before the call to blk_end_request_all() which might cause the suicide of the block requests. At best the leak of bidi buffers, at worse a crash, as there is a race between the existence of the bidi_request and the free of the associated bidi_sdb. The reason this was never hit before is because only OSD has the potential of doing asynchronous bidi commands. (So does bsg but it is never used) And OSD clients just happen to do all their bidi commands synchronously, up until recently.

2010-01-17[SCSI] aacraid: fix File System going into read-only modePenchala Narasimha Reddy Chilakala, ERS-HCLTech
These particular problems were reported by Cisco and SAP and customers as well. Cisco reported on RHEL4 U6 and SAP reported on SLES9 SP4 and SLES10 SP2. We added these fixes on RHEL4 U6 and gave a private build to IBM and Cisco. Cisco and IBM tested it for more than 15 days and they reported that they did not see the issue so far. Before the fix, Cisco used to see the issue within 5 days. We generated a patch for SLES9 SP4 and SLES10 SP2 and submitted to Novell. Novell applied the patch and gave a test build to SAP. SAP tested and reported that the build is working properly. We also tested in our lab using the tools "dishogsync", which is IO stress tool and the tool was provided by Cisco. Issue1: File System going into read-only mode Root cause: The driver tends to not free the memory (FIB) when the management request exits prematurely. The accumulation of such un-freed memory causes the driver to fail to allocate anymore memory (FIB) and hence return 0x70000 value to the upper layer, which puts the file system into read only mode. Fix details: The fix makes sure to free the memory (FIB) even if the request exits prematurely hence ensuring the driver wouldn't run out of memory (FIBs). Issue2: False Raid Alert occurs When the Physical Drives and Logical drives are reported as deleted or added, even though there is no change done on the system Root cause: Driver IOCTLs is signaled with EINTR while waiting on response from the lower layers. Returning "EINTR" will never initiate internal retry. Fix details: The issue was fixed by replacing "EINTR" with "ERESTARTSYS" for mid-layer retries.

Normally it's possible (but not required) that the firmware has the knowledge that it is an invalid lun. In the particular case when max_lun is 256, however, the nonexistent lun 256 will be confused with lun 0, because the lun member in a request message is only u8, and 256 will become 0.

2009-12-22kfifo: move struct kfifo in placeStefani Seibold
This is a new generic kernel FIFO implementation. The current kernel fifo API is not very widely used, because it has to many constrains. Only 17 files in the current 2.6.31-rc5 used it. FIFO's are like list's a very basic thing and a kfifo API which handles the most use case would save a lot of development time and memory resources. I think this are the reasons why kfifo is not in use: - The API is to simple, important functions are missing - A fifo can be only allocated dynamically - There is a requirement of a spinlock whether you need it or not - There is no support for data records inside a fifo So I decided to extend the kfifo in a more generic way without blowing up the API to much. The new API has the following benefits: - Generic usage: For kernel internal use and/or device driver. - Provide an API for the most use case. - Slim API: The whole API provides 25 functions. - Linux style habit. - DECLARE_KFIFO, DEFINE_KFIFO and INIT_KFIFO Macros - Direct copy_to_user from the fifo and copy_from_user into the fifo. - The kfifo itself is an in place member of the using data structure, this save an indirection access and does not waste the kernel allocator. - Lockless access: if only one reader and one writer is active on the fifo, which is the common use case, no additional locking is necessary. - Remove spinlock - give the user the freedom of choice what kind of locking to use if one is required. - Ability to handle records. Three type of records are supported: - Variable length records between 0-255 bytes, with a record size field of 1 bytes. - Variable length records between 0-65535 bytes, with a record size field of 2 bytes. - Fixed size records, which no record size field. - Preserve memory resource. - Performance! - Easy to use! This patch: Since most users want to have the kfifo as part of another object, reorganize the code to allow including struct kfifo in another data structure. This requires changing the kfifo_alloc and kfifo_init prototypes so that we pass an existing kfifo pointer into them. This patch changes the implementation and all existing users.

2009-12-15Subject: Re: [PATCH] strstrip incorrectly marked __must_checkKOSAKI Motohiro
Recently, We marked strstrip() as must_check. because it was frequently misused and it should be checked. However, we found one exception. scsi/ipr.c intentionally ignore return value of strstrip. Because it wishes to keep the whitespace at the beginning. Thus we need to keep with and without checked whitespace trim function. This patch adds a new strim() and changes ipr.c to use it.

2009-12-12[SCSI] fcoe, libfc: adds enable/disable for fcoe interfaceVasu Dev
This is to allow fcoemon util to enable or disable a fcoe interface according to DCB link state change. Adds sysfs module param enable and disable for this and also updates existing other module param description to be consistent and more accurate since older description had double "fcoe" word with less meaningful netdev reference to user space. Adds code to ignore redundant fc_lport_enter_reset handling for a already disabled fcoe interface by checking LPORT_ST_DISABLED or LPORT_ST_LOGO states, this also prevents lport state transition on link flap on a disabled interface. Above changes required lport state transition to get out of disabled or logo state on call to fc_fabric_login.

2009-12-12[SCSI] libfc: reduce hold time on SCSI host lockChris Leech
Introduce a new lock to protect the list of fc_fcp_pkt structs in libfc instead of using the host lock. This reduces the contention of this heavily used lock, and I see up to a 25% performance gain in CPU bound small I/O tests when scaling out across multiple quad-core CPUs. The big win is in removing the host lock from the completion path completely, as it does not need to be held around the call to scsi_done.

2009-12-12[SCSI] libfc: remote port gets stuck in restart state without really restartingAbhijeet Joglekar
We ran into a scenario where a remote port goes into RESTART state, but never gets added to scsi transport. The running vmcore showed the following: a) Port was in RESTART state b) rdata->event was STOP c) no work gets scheduled for the remote work to fc_rport_work After this point, shut/no-shut of the remote port did not cause the port to get re-discovered. The port would move betwen DELETE and RESTART states, but the event would always be STOP, no work would get scheduled to fc_rport_work and the port would not get added to scsi_transport. The problem is that rdata->event is not set to NONE after a port is restarted. After this point, no more work gets scheduled for the remote port since new work is scheduled only if rdata->event is non-NONE. So, the event and state keep changing, but fc_rport_work does not get scheduled to actually handle the event. Here's a transition of states that explains the above observation: ) Port is first in READY State, event is NONE 2) RSCN on shut, port goes to DELETED, event is stop 3) Before fc_rport_work runs, RSCN on no-shut, port goes to RESTART, event is still STOP 4) fc_rport_work gets scheduled, removes the port from transport, sees state as RESTART, begins the PLOGI state machine, event remains as STOP (event NOT changed to NONE, this is the bug) 5) Plogi state machine completes, port state goes to READY, event goes to READY, but no work is scheduled since event was STOP (non-NONE) before. Fc_rport_work is not scheduled, port remains in READY state, but is not added to transport. Things are broken at this point. Libfc rport is ready, but no transport rport created. 6) now a shut causes port state to change to DELETE, event to change to STOP, no work gets scheduled 7) no-shut causes port state to change to RESTART, event remains at STOP, no work gets scheduled (6) and (7) now get repeated everytime we do shut/no-shut. No way to get out of this state. Fcc reset does not help too. Only way to get out is to load/unload module. Fix is to set rdata->event to NONE while processing the STOP/LOGO/FAILED events, inside the discovery and rport locks.
