* [SCSI] scsi_transport_fc: fc_user_scan correctionJames Smart2008-04-271-7/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | Way back when, when the fc_user_scan routine was created, it kept some of its original logic that walked the rport list and kicked off a scan. Unfortunately, it didn't keep any of the locking around the rport list, nor did it consider the synchronous nature of the scan invoked. The result, there are some scan requests where the rport list changes, thus a subsequent scan is called on a bogus rport structure and the system NMI's.

* [SCSI] Fix signness of parameters in scsi moduleMasatake YAMATO2007-10-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | In scsi module I've found some inconsistency between variable type used in module_param_named and type passed to module_param_named as an argument. Especially the inconsistency of `max_scsi_luns' parameter is a bit serious because the description text says "last scsi LUN (should be between 1 and 2^32-1)".

* [SCSI] fc_transport: Check portstates before invoking target scanHannes Reinecke2007-06-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a target scan is initiated from sysfs, we should check the portstate prior to invoke scsi_scan_target(). Otherwise scsi_scan_target() might oops as the rport might already been removed from the scsi host and the traversal from the rport to the scsi_host in scsi_scan_target() will fail. Also the portstate already told us that communication with the target has failed, so it's quite pointless to try.

* [SCSI] FC Transport support for vports based on NPIVJames Smart2007-05-161-22/+783
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch provides support for FC virtual ports based on NPIV. For information on the interfaces and design, please read the Documentation/scsi/scsi_fc_transport.txt file enclosed within the patch. The RFC was originally posted here: http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=117226959918393&w=2 Changes from the initial RFC: - Bug fix: needed a transport_class_unregister() for the vport class - Create a symlink to the vport in the shost device if it is not the parent of the vport. - Made symbolic name writable so it can be set after creation - Made the temporary fc_vport_identifiers struct private to the transport. - Deleted the vport_id field from the vport. I couldn't find any good use for it (and symname is a good replacement). - Made the vport_state and vport_last_state "private" attributes. Added the fc_vport_set_state() helper function to manage state transitions - Updated vport_create() to allow a vport to be created in a disabled state. - Added INITIALIZING and FAILED vport states - Added VPCERR_xxx defines for errors to be returned from vport_create() - Created a Documentation/scsi/scsi_fc_transport.txt file that describes the interfaces and expected LLDD behaviors.

* [SCSI] fc_transport: make all rports wait dev_loss_tmo before removing themJames Smart2007-05-061-61/+97
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Per the comment in the change - it's not always prudent to immediately remove the rport upon first notice of a disconnect. Make all rports wait dev_loss_tmo before being deleted (and each could have a separate dev_loss_tmo value). The original post was: http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=117392196006703&w=2 The repost contains the following changes: - Bug fix in fc_starget_delete(). Dev_loss_tmo_callbk() was called prior to tearing down the target. The callback is to be the last thing called, as it tells the LLDD that the rport is completely finished and can be torn down. Rework so that terminate_rport_io() is called to terminate the outstanding io. Isolated work so it's is simply "starget" work. - Fix holes in original patch. There were code paths that did not expect the dev_loss_tmo timer to be running for the non-fcp rports. - Bug Fix: the transport wasn't protecting against a LLDD calling fc_remote_port_delete() back-to-back. Thus, the dev_loss_tmo timer could be restarted such that it fires after the rport had been deleted. Validate rport state before starting the timer.

* [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.hTim Schmielau2007-02-141-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

* [SCSI] FC transport: Add dev_loss_tmo callbacks, and new fast_io_fail_tmo w/ ↵James Smart2006-09-041-11/+123
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | callback This patch adds the following functionality to the FC transport: - dev_loss_tmo LLDD callback : Called to essentially confirm the deletion of an rport. Thus, it is called whenever the dev_loss_tmo fires, or when the rport is deleted due to other circumstances (module unload, etc). It is expected that the callback will initiate the termination of any outstanding i/o on the rport. - fast_io_fail_tmo and LLD callback: There are some cases where it may take a long while to truly determine device loss, but the system is in a multipathing configuration that if the i/o was failed quickly (faster than dev_loss_tmo), it could be redirected to a different path and completed sooner.

* [SCSI] SCSI and FC Transport: add netlink support for posting of transport ↵James Smart2006-09-021-1/+199
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | events This patch formally adds support for the posting of FC events via netlink. It is a followup to the original RFC at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=114530667923464&w=2 and the initial posting at: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115507374832500&w=2 The patch has been updated to optimize the send path, per the discussions in the initial posting. Per discussions at the Storage Summit and at OLS, we are to use netlink for async events from transports. Also per discussions, to avoid a netlink protocol per transport, I've create a single NETLINK_SCSITRANSPORT protocol, which can then be used by all transports. This patch: - Creates new files scsi_netlink.c and scsi_netlink.h, which contains the single and shared definitions for the SCSI Transport. It is tied into the base SCSI subsystem intialization. Contains a single interface routine, scsi_send_transport_event(), for a transport to send an event (via multicast to a protocol specific group). - Creates a new scsi_netlink_fc.h file, which contains the FC netlink event messages - Adds 3 new routines to the fc transport: fc_get_event_number() - to get a FC event # fc_host_post_event() - to send a simple FC event (32 bits of data) fc_host_post_vendor_event() - to send a Vendor unique event, with arbitrary amounts of data. Note: the separation of event number allows for a LLD to send a standard event, followed by vendor-specific data for the event. Note: This patch assumes 2 prior fc transport patches have been installed: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115555807316329&w=2 http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115581614930261&w=2 Sorry - next time I'll do something like making these individual patches of the same posting when I know they'll be posted closely together.

* [SCSI] fc transport: resolve scan vs delete deadlocksJames Smart2006-06-271-13/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a prior posting to linux-scsi on the fc transport and workq deadlocks, we noted a second error that did not have a patch: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=114467847711383&w=2 - There's a deadlock where scsi_remove_target() has to sit behind scsi_scan_target() due to contention over the scan_lock(). Subsequently we posted a request for comments about the deadlock: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=114469358829500&w=2 This posting resolves the second error. Here's what we now understand, and are implementing: If the lldd deletes the rport while a scan is active, the sdev's queue is blocked which stops the issuing of commands associated with the scan. At this point, the scan stalls, and does so with the shost->scan_mutex held. If, at this point, if any scan or delete request is made on the host, it will stall waiting for the scan_mutex. For the FC transport, we queue all delete work to a single workq. So, things worked fine when competing with the scan, as long as the target blocking the scan was the same target at the top of our delete workq, as the delete workq routine always unblocked just prior to requesting the delete. Unfortunately, if the top of our delete workq was for a different target, we deadlock. Additionally, if the target blocking scan returned, we were unblocking it in the scan workq routine, which really won't execute until the existing stalled scan workq completes (e.g. we're re-scheduling it while it is in the midst of its execution). This patch moves the unblock out of the workq routines and moves it to the context that is scheduling the work. This ensures that at some point, we will unblock the target that is blocking scan. Please note, however, that the deadlock condition may still occur while it waits for the transport to timeout an unblock on a target. Worst case, this is bounded by the transport dev_loss_tmo (default: 30 seconds). Finally, Michael Reed deserves the credit for the bulk of this patch, analysis, and it's testing. Thank you for your help. Note: The request for comments statements about the gross-ness of the scan_mutex still stand.

* [SCSI] FC transport: fixes for workq deadlocksJames Smart2006-04-131-155/+311
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As previously reported via Michael Reed, the FC transport took a hit in 2.6.15 (perhaps a little earlier) when we solved a recursion error. There are 2 deadlocks occurring: - With scan and the delete items sharing the same workq, flushing the workq for the delete code was getting it stalled behind a very long running scan code path. - There's a deadlock where scsi_remove_target() has to sit behind scsi_scan_target() due to contention over the scan_lock(). This patch resolves the 1st deadlock and significantly reduces the odds of the second. So far, we have only replicated the 2nd deadlock on a highly-parallel SMP system. More on the 2nd deadlock in a following email. This patch reworks the transport to: - Only use the scsi host workq for scanning - Use 2 other workq's internally. One for deletions, the other for scheduled deletions. Originally, we tried this with a single workq, but the occassional flushes of the scheduled queues was hitting the second deadlock with a slightly higher frequency. In the future, we'll look at the LLDD's and the transport to see if we can get rid of this extra overhead. - When moving to the other workq's we tightened up some object states and some lock handling. - Properly syncs adds/deletes - minor code cleanups - directly reference fc_host_attrs, rather than through attribute macros - flush the right workq on delayed work cancel failures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When James Smart fixed the issue of the userspace scan atributes crashing the system with the FC transport class he added a patch to let the transport class check if the parent is valid for a given transport class. When adding support for the integrated raid of fusion sas devices we ran into a problem with that, as it didn't allow adding virtual raid volumes without the transport class knowing about it. So this patch adds a user_scan attribute instead, that takes over from scsi_scan_host_selected if the transport class sets it and thus lets the transport class control the user-initiated scanning. As this plugs the hole about user-initiated scanning the target_parent hook goes away and we rely on callers of the scanning routines to do something sensible. For SAS this meant I had to switch from a spinlock to a mutex to synchronize the topology linked lists, in FC they were completely unsynchronized which seems wrong.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the scenario that a link was broken, the devloss timer for each rport was expire at roughly the same time, causing lots of "delete" workqueue items being queued. Depth is dependent upon the number of rports that were on the link. The rport target remove calls were calling flush_scheduled_work(), which would interrupt the stream, and start the next workqueue item, which did the same thing, and so on until recursion depth was large. This fix stops the recursion in the initial delete path, and pushes it off to a host-level work item that reaps the dead rports. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

If we deleted them, the scsi targets and sdevs would be torn down. Not a good thing for a temporary reset. We could block the rports, but we either maintain the internal structures to keep the rport reference (perhaps even replicating what's in the transport), or we have to fatten the fc transport with new search routines to find the rport (and deal with a case of a dangling rport that the driver forgets). It dawned on me that we had actually reached this state incorrectly. When the fc transport first started, we did the block/unblock first, then added the rport interface. The purpose of block/unblock is to hide the temporary disappearance of the rport (e.g. being deleted, then readded). Why are we making the driver do the block/unblock ? We should be making the transport have only an rport add/delete, and the let the transport handle the block/unblock. So... This patch removes the existing fc_remote_port_block/unblock functions. It moves the block/unblock functionality into the fc_remote_port_add/delete functions. Updates for the lpfc driver are included. Qlogic driver updates are also enclosed, thanks to the contributions of Andrew Vasquez. [Note: the qla2xxx changes are relative to the scsi-misc-2.6 tree as of this morning - which does not include the recent patches sent by Andrew]. The zfcp driver does not use the block/unblock functions. One last comment: The resulting behavior feels very clean. The LLDD is concerned only with add/delete, which corresponds to the physical disappearance. However, the fact that the scsi target and sdevs are not immediately torn down after the LLDD calls delete causes an interesting scenario... the midlayer can call the xxx_slave_alloc and xxx_queuecommand functions with a sdev that is at the location the rport used to be. The driver must validate the device exists when it first enters these functions. In thinking about it, this has always been the case for the LLDD and these routines. The existing drivers already check for existence. However, this highlights that simple validation via data structure dereferencing needs to be watched. To deal with this, a new transport function, fc_remote_port_chkready() was created that LLDDs should call when they first enter these two routines. It validates the rport state, and returns a scsi result which could be returned. In addition to solving the above, it also creates consistent behavior from the LLDD's when the block and deletes are occuring.

* | [PATCH] fix missing includesTim Schmielau2005-10-301-0/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after this disentangling (patch to follow later). However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this. In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real patch. This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other. So if any hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it. My scripts will pick it up again in the next round.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I recently tried to construct a totally generic transport class and found there were certain features missing from the current abstract transport class. Most notable is that you have to hang the data on the class_device but most of the API is framed in terms of the generic device, not the class_device. These changes are two fold - Provide the class_device to all of the setup and configure APIs - Provide and extra API to take the device and the attribute class and return the corresponding class_device Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
* | [SCSI] fix target scanning oops with fc transport classJames.Smart@Emulex.Com2005-08-081-0/+19
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have some nasty issues with 2.6.12-rc6. Any request to scan on the lpfc or qla2xxx FC adapters will oops. What is happening is the system is defaulting to non-transport registered targets, which inherit the parent of the scan. On this second scan, performed by the attribute, the parent becomes the shost instead of the rport. The slave functions in the 2 FC adapters use starget_to_rport() routines, which incorrectly map the shost as an rport pointer. Additionally, this pointed out other weaknesses: - If the target structure is torn down outside of the transport, we have no method for it to be regenerated at the proper parent. - We have race conditions on the target being allocated by both the midlayer scan (parent=shost) and by the fc transport (parent=rport).

* Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds2005-04-161-0/+1665
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
