[SCSI] libfcoe: Support extra MAC descriptor to be used as FCoE MAC

2012-03-28T08:05:37Z

Some switch implementations (eg., HP virtual connect FlexFabric) send two MAC descriptors in FIP FLOGI response, with first MAC descriptor (granted_mac) used as FPMA, and the second one (fcoe_mac) used as destination address for sending/receiving FCoE packets. fip_mac continues to be used for FIP traffic. This patch introduces fcoe_mac in fcoe_fcf structure. For regular switches, both fcoe_mac and fip_mac will be the same. For the switches that send additional MAC descriptor, fcoe_mac is updated.

[SCSI] fcoe: fix fcoe in a DCB environment by adding DCB notifiers to set skb priority

2011-12-15T07:02:07Z

Use DCB notifiers to set the skb priority to allow packets to be steered and tagged correctly over DCB enabled drivers that setup traffic classes. This allows queue_mapping() routines to be removed in these drivers that were previously inspecting the ethertype of every skb to mark FCoE/FIP frames.

[SCSI] fcoe,libfcoe: Move common code for fcoe_get_lesb to fcoe_transport

2011-10-16T15:38:01Z

Except for obtaining the netdev from lport, fcoe_get_lesb is the common code for the LLDs. Signed-off-by: Bhanu Prakash Gollapudi Acked-by: Yi Zou Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] fcoe: Move common functions to fcoe_transport library

2011-08-27T14:35:46Z

Export fcoe_get_wwn, fcoe_validate_vport_create and fcoe_wwn_to_str so that all LLDs can use these common function. Signed-off-by: Bhanu Prakash Gollapudi Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] libfcoe: Move FCOE_MTU definition from fcoe.h to libfcoe.h

2011-03-01T00:33:12Z

both fcoe and bnx2fc drivers can access the common definition of FCOE_MTU. Signed-off-by: Bhanu Prakash Gollapudi Signed-off-by: Robert Love Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] libfcoe: Move common code from fcoe to libfcoe module

2011-02-12T17:18:18Z

To facilitate LLDDs to reuse the code, skb queue related functions are moved to libfcoe, so that both fcoe and bnx2fc drivers can use them. The common structures fcoe_port, fcoe_percpu_s are moved to libfcoe. fcoe_port will now have an opaque pointer that points to corresponding driver's interface structure. Also, fcoe_start_io and fcoe_fc_crc are moved to libfcoe. As part of this change, fixed fcoe_start_io to return ENOMEM if skb_clone fails.

[SCSI] libfcoe: add fcoe_transport structure defines to include/scsi/libfcoe.h

2011-02-12T17:05:29Z

add the fcoe_transport struct to the common libfcoe.h header so all fcoe transport provides can use it to attach itself as an fcoe transport. This is the header part, and the next patch will be the transport code itself. Signed-off-by: Yi Zou Signed-off-by: Bhanu Prakash Gollapudi Signed-off-by: Robert Love Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] libfcoe: retry rejected FLOGI to another FCF if possible

2010-12-21T18:24:32Z

Switches using multiple-FCFs may reject FLOGI in order to balance the load between multiple FCFs. Even though the FCF was available, it may have more load at the point we actually send the FLOGI. If the FLOGI fails, select a different FCF if possible, among those with the same priority. If no other FCF is available, just deliver the reject to libfc for retry.

[SCSI] libfcoe: fcoe: fnic: add FIP VN2VN point-to-multipoint support

2010-07-28T14:05:56Z

The FC-BB-6 committee is proposing a new FIP usage model called VN_port to VN_port mode. It allows VN_ports to discover each other over a loss-free L2 Ethernet without any FCF or Fibre-channel fabric services. This is point-to-multipoint. There is also a variant of this called point-to-point which provides for making sure there is just one pair of ports operating over the Ethernet fabric. We add these new states: VNMP_START, _PROBE1, _PROBE2, _CLAIM, and _UP. These usually go quickly in that sequence. After waiting a random amount of time up to 100 ms in START, we select a pseudo-random proposed locally-unique port ID and send out probes in states PROBE1 and PROBE2, 100 ms apart. If no probe responses are heard, we proceed to CLAIM state 400 ms later and send a claim notification. We wait another 400 ms to receive claim responses, which give us a list of the other nodes on the network, including their FC-4 capabilities. After another 400 ms we go to VNMP_UP state and should start interoperating with any of the nodes for whic we receivec claim responses. More details are in the spec.j Add the new mode as FIP_MODE_VN2VN. The driver must specify explicitly that it wants to operate in this mode. There is no automatic detection between point-to-multipoint and fabric mode, and the local port initialization is affected, so it isn't anticipated that there will ever be any such automatic switchover. It may eventually be possible to have both fabric and VN2VN modes on the same L2 network, which may be done by two separate local VN_ports (lports). When in VN2VN mode, FIP replaces libfc's fabric-oriented discovery module with its own simple code that adds remote ports as they are discovered from incoming claim notifications and responses. These hooks are placed by fcoe_disc_init(). A linear list of discovered vn_ports is maintained under the fcoe_ctlr struct. It is expected to be short for now, and accessed infrequently. It is kept under RCU for lock-ordering reasons. The lport and/or rport mutexes may be held when we need to lookup a fcoe_vnport during an ELS send. Change fcoe_ctlr_encaps() to lookup the destination vn_port in the list of peers for the destination MAC address of the FIP-encapsulated frame. Add a new function fcoe_disc_init() to initialize just the discovery portion of libfcoe for VN2VN mode. Signed-off-by: Joe Eykholt Signed-off-by: Robert Love Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

There are three modes that libfcoe currently supports, and a new one is coming. Change the fcoe_ctlr_init() interface to add the mode desired. This should not change any functionality. Signed-off-by: Joe Eykholt Signed-off-by: Robert Love Signed-off-by: James Bottomley
