[SCSI] hpsa: fix handling of protocol error

2012-09-18T11:29:30Z

If a command status of CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR is received, this information should be conveyed to the SCSI mid layer, not dropped on the floor. CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR may be received from the Smart Array for any commands destined for an external RAID controller such as a P2000, or commands destined for tape drives or CD/DVD-ROM drives, if for instance a cable is disconnected. This mostly affects multipath configurations, as disconnecting a cable on a non-multipath configuration is not going to do anything good regardless of whether CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR is handled correctly or not. Not handling CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR correctly in a multipath configaration involving external RAID controllers may cause data corruption, so this is quite a serious bug. This bug should not normally cause a problem for direct attached disk storage. Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] mpt2sas: Fix for issue - Unable to boot from the drive connected to HBA

2012-09-17T12:49:47Z

This patch checks whether HBA is SAS2008 B0 controller. if it is a SAS2008 B0 controller then it use IO-APIC interrupt instead of MSIX, as SAS2008 B0 controller doesn't support MSIX interrupts. [jejb: fix whitespace problems] Signed-off-by: Sreekanth Reddy Cc: Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] bnx2i: Fixed NULL ptr deference for 1G bnx2 Linux iSCSI offload

2012-09-17T12:40:32Z

This patch fixes the following kernel panic invoked by uninitialized fields in the chip initialization for the 1G bnx2 iSCSI offload. One of the bits in the chip initialization is being used by the latest firmware to control overflow packets. When this control bit gets enabled erroneously, it would ultimately result in a bad packet placement which would cause the bnx2 driver to dereference a NULL ptr in the placement handler. This can happen under certain stress I/O environment under the Linux iSCSI offload operation. This change only affects Broadcom's 5709 chipset.

[SCSI] scsi: virtio-scsi: Fix address translation failure of HighMem pages used by sg list

2012-09-14T14:47:01Z

When using the commands below to write some data to a virtio-scsi LUN of the QEMU guest(32-bit) with 1G physical memory(qemu -m 1024), the qemu will crash. # sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb (/dev/sdb is the virtio-scsi LUN.) # sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt # dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/file bs=1M count=1024 In current implementation, sg_set_buf is called to add buffers to sg list which is put into the virtqueue eventually. But if there are some HighMem pages in table->sgl you can not get virtual address by sg_virt. So, sg_virt(sg_elem) may return NULL value. This will cause QEMU exit when virtqueue_map_sg is called in QEMU because an invalid GPA is passed by virtqueue. Two solutions are discussed here: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1207.3/00675.html Finally, value assignment approach was adopted because: Value assignment creates a well-formed scatterlist, because the termination marker in source sg_list has been set in blk_rq_map_sg(). The last entry of the source sg_list is just copied to the the last entry in destination list. Note that, for now, virtio_ring does not care about the form of the scatterlist and simply processes the first out_num + in_num consecutive elements of the sg[] array. I have tested the patch on my workstation. QEMU would not crash any more.

[SCSI] Fix 'Device not ready' issue on mpt2sas

2012-08-22T05:42:54Z

This is a particularly nasty SCSI ATA Translation Layer (SATL) problem. SAT-2 says (section 8.12.2) if the device is in the stopped state as the result of processing a START STOP UNIT command (see 9.11), then the SATL shall terminate the TEST UNIT READY command with CHECK CONDITION status with the sense key set to NOT READY and the additional sense code of LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY, INITIALIZING COMMAND REQUIRED; mpt2sas internal SATL seems to implement this. The result is very confusing standby behaviour (using hdparm -y). If you suspend a drive and then send another command, usually it wakes up. However, if the next command is a TEST UNIT READY, the SATL sees that the drive is suspended and proceeds to follow the SATL rules for this, returning NOT READY to all subsequent commands. This means that the ordering of TEST UNIT READY is crucial: if you send TUR and then a command, you get a NOT READY to both back. If you send a command and then a TUR, you get GOOD status because the preceeding command woke the drive. This bit us badly because commit 85ef06d1d252f6a2e73b678591ab71caad4667bb Author: Tejun Heo Date: Fri Jul 1 16:17:47 2011 +0200 block: flush MEDIA_CHANGE from drivers on close(2) Changed our ordering on TEST UNIT READY commands meaning that SATA drives connected to an mpt2sas now suspend and refuse to wake (because the mpt2sas SATL sees the suspend *before* the drives get awoken by the next ATA command) resulting in lots of failed commands. The standard is completely nuts forcing this inconsistent behaviour, but we have to work around it. The fix for this is twofold: 1. Set the allow_restart flag so we wake the drive when we see it has been suspended 2. Return all TEST UNIT READY status directly to the mid layer without any further error handling which prevents us causing error handling which may offline the device just because of a media check TUR.

[SCSI] mpt2sas: Fix for Driver oops, when loading driver with max_queue_depth command line option to a very small value

2012-08-22T05:38:49Z

If the specified max_queue_depth setting is less than the expected number of internal commands, then driver will calculate the queue depth size to a negitive number. This negitive number is actually a very large number because variable is unsigned 16bit integer. So, the driver will ask for a very large amount of memory for message frames and resulting into oops as memory allocation routines will not able to handle such a large request. So, in order to limit this kind of oops, The driver need to set the max_queue_depth to a scsi mid layer's can_queue value. Then the overall message frames required for IO is minimum of either (max_queue_depth plus internal commands) or the IOC global credits.
