2007-07-28[SCSI] aacraid: add SCSI SYNCHONIZE_CACHE range checkingSalyzyn, Mark
Customer running an application that issues SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE calls directly noticed the broad stroke of the current implementation in the aacraid driver resulting in multiple applications feeding I/O to the storage causing the issuing application to stall for long periods of time. By only waiting for the current WRITE commands, rather than all commands, to complete; and those that are in range of the SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE call that would associate more tightly with the issuing application before telling the Firmware to flush it's dirty cache, we managed to reduce the stalling. The Firmware itself still flushes all the dirty cache associated with the array ignoring the range, it just does so in a more timely manner.

2007-07-27[SCSI] aic79xx, aic7xxx: Fix incorrect width settingJames Bottomley
Wide transfers are required for every setting of PPR apart from QAS. It seems the DV code starts at the minimum, which turns on DT and Wide regardless of the setting of max_width. Redo the PPR and period setting routines to respect max_width (i.e. start at period = 10 if it is zero).

2007-07-27[SCSI] iscsi_tcp: Turn off bounce buffersMike Christie
It was found by LSI that on setups with large amounts of memory we were bouncing buffers when we did not need to. If the iscsi tcp code touches the data buffer (or a helper does), it will kmap the buffer. iscsi_tcp also does not interact with hardware, so it does not have any hw dma restrictions. This patch sets the bounce buffer settings for our device queue so buffers should not be bounced because of a driver limit.

2007-07-21[SCSI] bsg: make class backlinksJames Bottomley
Currently, bsg doesn't make class backlinks (a process whereby you'd get a link to bsg in the device directory in the same way you get one for sg). This is because the bsg device is uninitialised, so the class device has nothing it can attach to. The fix is to make the bsg device point to the cdevice of the entity creating the bsg, necessitating changing the bsg_register_queue() prototype into a form that takes the generic device.

Fix drivers misusing dev_to_shost Some drivers were using dev_to_shost to go from a struct device to the corresponding shost. Unfortunately, dev_to_shost only looks up the tree to find an shost (it's designed to go from a scsi_device or a scsi_target to the parent scsi_host), and these drivers were calling it with the parent of the scsi_host. I've fixed this by saving a pointer to the Scsi_Host in the drvdata, which matches what most scsi drivers do.

2007-07-18[SCSI] aacraid: add vpd to inquirySalyzyn, Mark
Report VPD inquiry page 0x80 with an unique array creation serial number (CUID). When an array is created, the metadata stored on the physical drives gets an unique serial number. This serial number remains constant through array morphing or migration to other controllers. This patch is a forward port and modification to survive morphing and migration operations, of a similar piece of (un-attributed author) code added to the SLES10 SP1 aacraid driver. To test the results of the patch, observe that /dev/disk/by-id/ entries will show up for the arrays resulting from the udev rules. Also, as per the udev rules, 'scsi_id -g -x -a -s /block/sd? -d /dev/sd?' will report the ID_SERIAL as constructed from the inquiry data. It was reported to me that the 'ADPT' leading the serial number was bad form, that the inquiry vendor field was enough to differentiate the storage uniquely. Subsequent search found that another Adaptec AAC based driver reported the 8 hex serial number only without such adornments, so dropped ADPT to match. Resubmitting the patch with this alteration.
