linux/include/scsi, branch v3.12

Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending

2013-09-12T23:11:45Z

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger: "Lots of activity again this round for I/O performance optimizations (per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for vhost + iscsi/target), and the addition of new fabric independent features to target-core (COMPARE_AND_WRITE + EXTENDED_COPY). The main highlights include: - Support for iscsi-target login multiplexing across individual network portals - Generic Per-cpu IDA logic (kent + akpm + clameter) - Conversion of vhost to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for descriptors, SGLs and userspace page pointer list - Conversion of iscsi-target + iser-target to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for descriptors - Add support for generic COMPARE_AND_WRITE (AtomicTestandSet) emulation for virtual backend drivers - Add support for generic EXTENDED_COPY (CopyOffload) emulation for virtual backend drivers. - Add support for fast memory registration mode to iser-target (Vu) The patches to add COMPARE_AND_WRITE and EXTENDED_COPY support are of particular significance, which make us the first and only open source target to support the full set of VAAI primitives. Currently Linux clients are lacking upstream support to actually utilize these primitives. However, with server side support now in place for folks like MKP + ZAB working on the client, this logic once reserved for the highest end of storage arrays, can now be run in VMs on their laptops" * 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending: (50 commits) target/iscsi: Bump versions to v4.1.0 target: Update copyright ownership/year information to 2013 iscsi-target: Bump default TCP listen backlog to 256 target: Fix >= v3.9+ regression in PR APTPL + ALUA metadata write-out iscsi-target; Bump default CmdSN Depth to 64 iscsi-target: Remove unnecessary wait_for_completion in iscsi_get_thread_set iscsi-target: Add thread_set->ts_activate_sem + use common deallocate iscsi-target: Fix race with thread_pre_handler flush_signals + ISCSI_THREAD_SET_DIE target: remove unused including iser-target: introduce fast memory registration mode (FRWR) iser-target: generalize rdma memory registration and cleanup iser-target: move rdma wr processing to a shared function target: Enable global EXTENDED_COPY setup/release target: Add Third Party Copy (3PC) bit in INQUIRY response target: Enable EXTENDED_COPY setup in spc_parse_cdb target: Add support for EXTENDED_COPY copy offload emulation target: Avoid non-existent tg_pt_gp_mem in target_alua_state_check target: Add global device list for EXTENDED_COPY target: Make helpers non static for EXTENDED_COPY command setup target: Make spc_parse_naa_6h_vendor_specific non static ...

[SCSI] Generate uevents on certain unit attention codes

2013-08-26T14:52:27Z

Generate a uevent when the following Unit Attention ASC/ASCQ codes are received: 2A/01 MODE PARAMETERS CHANGED 2A/09 CAPACITY DATA HAS CHANGED 38/07 THIN PROVISIONING SOFT THRESHOLD REACHED 3F/03 INQUIRY DATA HAS CHANGED 3F/0E REPORTED LUNS DATA HAS CHANGED Log kernel messages when the following Unit Attention ASC/ASCQ codes are received that are not as specific as those above: 2A/xx PARAMETERS CHANGED 3F/xx TARGET OPERATING CONDITIONS HAVE CHANGED Added logic to set expecting_lun_change for other LUNs on the target after REPORTED LUNS DATA HAS CHANGED is received, so that duplicate uevents are not generated, and clear expecting_lun_change when a REPORT LUNS command completes, in accordance with the SPC-3 specification regarding reporting of the 3F 0E ASC/ASCQ UA.

When the thin provisioning hard threshold is reached we should return ENOSPC to inform upper layers about this fact. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] Set hostbyte status in scsi_check_sense()

2013-08-23T16:34:56Z

We should be modifying the host_byte status in scsi_check_sense() directly; this saves us to introduce a special return code for each and every condition. Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] libiscsi: Added new boot entries in the session sysfs

2013-06-27T01:04:11Z

This is the kernel part of the modification to extract the net params from the ibft sysfs to the iface struct used for the connection request upon sync_session in the open-iscsi util. Three new session sysfs params are defined: boot_root - holds the name of the /sys/firmware/ibft or iscsi_rootN boot_nic - holds the ethernetN name boot_target - holds the targetN name Signed-off-by: Eddie Wai Reviewed-by: Mike Christie Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] Workaround for disks that report bad optimal transfer length

2013-06-24T20:00:10Z

Not all disks fill out the VPD pages correctly. Add a blacklist flag that allows us ignore the SBC-3 VPD pages for a given device. The BLIST_SKIP_VPD_PAGES flag triggers our existing skip_vpd_pages scsi_device parameter to bypass VPD scanning. Also blacklist the offending Seagate drive model.
