SBC3r26 contains many changes to the Logical Block Provisioning
interfaces (formerly known as Thin Provisioning ditto). This patch
implements support for both the old and new schemes using the same
heuristic as before (whether the LBP VPD page is present).
The new code also allows the provisioning mode (i.e. choice of command)
to be overridden on a per-device basis via sysfs. Two additional modes
are supported in this version:
- WRITE SAME(10) with the UNMAP bit set
- WRITE SAME(10) without the UNMAP bit set. This allows us to support
devices that predate the TP/LBP enhancements in SBC3 and which work
by way zero-detection
Switching between modes has been consolidated in a helper function that
also updates the block layer topology according to the limitations of
the chosen command.
I experimented with trying WRITE SAME(16) if UNMAP fails, WRITE SAME(10)
if WRITE SAME(16) fails, etc. but found several devices that got
cranky. So for now we'll disable discard if one of the commands
fail. The user still has the option of selecting a different mode in
sysfs.

SDEV_MEDIA_CHANGE event was first added by commit a341cd0f (SCSI: add
asynchronous event notification API) for SATA AN support and then
extended to cover generic media change events by commit 285e9670
([SCSI] sr,sd: send media state change modification events).
This event was mapped to block device in userland with all properties
stripped to simulate CHANGE event on the block device, which, in turn,
was used to trigger further userspace action on media change.
The recent addition of disk event framework kept this event for
backward compatibility but it turns out to be unnecessary and causes
erratic and inefficient behavior. The new disk event generates proper
events on the block devices and the compat events are mapped to block
device with all properties stripped, so the block device ends up
generating multiple duplicate events for single actual event.
This patch removes the compat event generation from both sr and sd as
suggested by Kay Sievers. Both existing and newer versions of udev
and the associated tools will behave better with the removal of these
events as they from the beginning were expecting events on the block
devices.

Replace sd_media_change() with sd_check_events().
* Move media removed logic into set_media_not_present() and
media_not_present() and set sdev->changed iff an existing media is
removed or the device indicates UNIT_ATTENTION.
* Make sd_check_events() sets sdev->changed if previously missing
media becomes present.
* Event is reported only if sdev->changed is set.
This makes media presence event reported if scsi_disk->media_present
actually changed or the device indicated UNIT_ATTENTION. For backward
compatibility, SDEV_EVT_MEDIA_CHANGE is generated each time
sd_check_events() detects media change event.

corruption
Our current handling of medium error assumes that data is returned up
to the bad sector. This assumption holds good for all disk devices,
all DIF arrays and most ordinary arrays. However, an LSI array engine
was recently discovered which reports a medium error without returning
any data. This means that when we report good data up to the medium
error, we've reported junk originally in the buffer as good. Worse,
if the read consists of requested data plus a readahead, and the error
occurs in readahead, we'll just strip off the readahead and report
junk up to userspace as good data with no error.
The fix for this is to have the error position computation take into
account the amount of data returned by the driver using the scsi
residual data. Unfortunately, not every driver fills in this data,
but for those who don't, it's set to zero, which means we'll think a
full set of data was transferred and the behaviour will be identical
to the prior behaviour of the code (believe the buffer up to the error
sector). All modern drivers seem to set the residual, so that should
fix up the LSI failure/corruption case.

Some kernel transport drivers unconditionally disable
retrieval of the Caching mode page. One such for example is
the BBB/CBI transport over USB. Such a restraint is too
harsh as some devices do support the Caching mode
page. Unconditionally enabling the retrieval of this mode
page over those transports at their transport code level may
result in some devices failing and becoming unusable.
This patch implements a method of retrieving the Caching
mode page without unconditionally enabling it in the
transports which unconditionally disable it. The idea is to
ask for all supported pages, page code 0x3F, and then search
for the Caching mode page in the mode parameter data
returned. The sd driver already asks for all the mode pages
supported by the attached device by setting the page code to
0x3F in order to find out if the media is write protected by
reading the WP bit in the Device Specific Parameter
field. It then attempts to retrieve only the Caching mode
page by setting the page code to 8 and actually attempting
to retrieve it if and only if the transport allows it.
The method implemented here is that if the transport doesn't
allow retrieval of the Caching mode page and the device is
not RBC, then we ask for all pages supported by setting the
page code to 0x3F (similarly to how the WP bit is retrieved
above), and then we search for the Caching mode page in the
mode parameter data returned.
With this patch, devices over SATA, report this (no change):

Smart devices report their Caching mode page. This is a
change where we'd previously see the kernel making
assumption about the device's cache being write-through:

This patch (as1415) improves the formerly incomprehensible logic in
sd_media_changed() (the current code refers to "changed" as a state,
whereas in fact it is a relation between two states). It also adds a
big comment so that everyone can understand what is really going on.
The patch also improves efficiency by not reporting a media change
when no medium was ever present. If no medium was present the last
time we checked and there's still no medium, it's not necessary to
tell the caller that a change occurred. Doing so merely causes the
caller to attempt to revalidate a non-existent disk, which is a waste
of time.

Replace sd_media_change() with sd_check_events(). sd used to set the
changed state whenever the device is not ready, which can cause event
loop while the device is not ready. Media presence handling code is
changed such that the changed state is set iff the media presence
actually changes. UA still always sets the changed state and
NOT_READY always (at least where it used to set ->changed) clears
media presence, so no event is lost.

The usage of TUR has been confusing involving several different
commits updating different parts over time. Currently, the only
differences between scsi_test_unit_ready() and sr_test_unit_ready()
are,
* scsi_test_unit_ready() also sets sdev->changed on NOT_READY.
* scsi_test_unit_ready() returns 0 if TUR ended with UNIT_ATTENTION or
NOT_READY.
Due to the above two differences, sr is using its own
sr_test_unit_ready(), but sd - the sole user of the above extra
handling - doesn't even need them.
Where scsi_test_unit_ready() is used in sd_media_changed(), the code
is looking for device ready w/ media present state which is true iff
TUR succeeds w/o sense data or UA, and when the device is not ready
for whatever reason sd_media_changed() explicitly marks media as
missing so there's no reason to set sdev->changed automatically from
scsi_test_unit_ready() on NOT_READY.
Drop both special handlings from scsi_test_unit_ready(), which makes
it equivalant to sr_test_unit_ready(), and replace
sr_test_unit_ready() with scsi_test_unit_ready(). Also, drop the
unnecessary explicit NOT_READY check from sd_media_changed().
Checking return value is enough for testing device readiness.

I seem to have a knack for digging up buggy usb devices which don't work
with Linux, and I'm crazy enough to try to make them work. So this time a
friend of mine asked me to get an mp4 player (an mp3 player which can play
videos on a small screen) to work with Linux.
It is based on the well known rockbox chipset for which we already have an
unusual devs entries to work around some of its bugs. But this model
comes with an additional twist.
This model chokes on read_capacity_16 calls. Now normally we don't make
those calls, but this model comes with an sdcard slot and when there is no
card in there (and shipped from the factory there is none), it reports a
size of 0. However this time the programmers actually got the
read_capacity_10 response right! So they substract one from the size as
stored internally in the mp3 player before reporting it back, resulting in
an answer of ... 0xffffffff sectors, causing sd.c to try a
read_capacity_16, on which the device crashes.
This patch adds a flag to scsi_device to indicate that a a device cannot
handle read_capacity_16, and when this flag is set if a device reports an
lba of 0xffffffff as answer to a read_capacity_10, assumes it tries to
report a size of 0.

-EOPNOTSUPP and blk_queue_ordered() is replaced with simpler
blk_queue_flush().
blk_queue_flush() takes combinations of REQ_FLUSH and FUA. If a
device has write cache and can flush it, it should set REQ_FLUSH. If
the device can handle FUA writes, it should also set REQ_FUA.
All blk_queue_ordered() users are converted.

making it configurable was troublesome for users.

scsi-ml uses REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC for flush requests from file
systems. The definition of REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC is that we don't retry
requests even when we can (e.g. UNIT ATTENTION) and we send the
response to the callers (then the callers can decide what they want).
We need a workaround such as the commit
77a4229719e511a0d38d9c355317ae1469adeb54 to retry BLOCK_PC flush
requests. We will need the similar workaround for discard requests too
since SCSI-ml handle them as BLOCK_PC internally.
This uses REQ_TYPE_FS for flush requests from file systems instead of
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC.
scsi-ml retries only REQ_TYPE_FS requests that have data to
transfer when we can retry them (e.g. UNIT_ATTENTION). However, we
also need to retry REQ_TYPE_FS requests without data because the
callers don't.
This also changes scsi_check_sense() to retry all the REQ_TYPE_FS
requests when appropriate. Thanks to scsi_noretry_cmd(),
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC requests don't be retried as before.
Note that basically, this reverts the commit
77a4229719e511a0d38d9c355317ae1469adeb54 since now we use REQ_TYPE_FS
for flush requests.

Subject: [PATCH resend] scsi: convert discard to REQ_TYPE_FS from REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC
The block layer (file systems) sends discard requests as REQ_TYPE_FS
(the role of REQ_TYPE_FS is that setting up commands and interpreting
the results). But SCSI-ml treats discard requests as
REQ_TYPE_BLOCK_PC.
scsi-ml can handle discard requests as REQ_TYPE_FS
easily. scsi_setup_discard_cmnd() sets up struct request and the bio
nicely. Only remaining issue is that discard requests can't be
completed partially so we need to modify sd_done.
This conversion also fixes the problem that discard requests aren't
retried when possible (e.g. UNIT ATTENTION).

Every user of the BKL in the sd driver is the
result of the pushdown from the block layer
into the open/close/ioctl functions.
The only place that used to rely on the BKL is
the sdkp->openers variable, which gets converted
into an atomic_t.
Nothing else seems to rely on the BKL, since the
functions do not touch global data without holding
another lock, and the open/close functions are
still protected from concurrent execution using
the bdev->bd_mutex.

The open and release block_device_operations are currently
called with the BKL held. In order to change that, we must
first make sure that all drivers that currently rely
on this have no regressions.
This blindly pushes the BKL into all .open and .release
operations for all block drivers to prepare for the
next step. The drivers can subsequently replace the BKL
with their own locks or remove it completely when it can
be shown that it is not needed.
The functions blkdev_get and blkdev_put are the only
remaining users of the big kernel lock in the block
layer, besides a few uses in the ioctl code, none
of which need to serialize with blkdev_{get,put}.
Most of these two functions is also under the protection
of bdev->bd_mutex, including the actual calls to
->open and ->release, and the common code does not
access any global data structures that need the BKL.

We leak a page allocated for discard on some error conditions
(e.g. scsi_prep_state_check returns BLKPREP_DEFER in
scsi_setup_blk_pc_cmnd).
We unprep on requests that weren't prepped in the error path of
scsi_init_io. It makes the error path to clean up scsi commands messy.
Let's strictly apply the rule that we can't unprep on a request that
wasn't prepped.
Calling just scsi_put_command() in the error path of scsi_init_io() is
enough. We don't set REQ_DONTPREP yet.
scsi_setup_discard_cmnd can safely free a page on the error case with
the above rule.

scsi-ml builds flush requests via q->prepare_flush_fn(), however,
builds discard requests via q->prep_rq_fn.
Using two different mechnisms for the similar requests (building
commands in SCSI ULD) doesn't make sense.
Handing both via q->prep_rq_fn makes the code design simpler.

This fixes discard page leak by using q->unprep_rq_fn facility.
q->unprep_rq_fn is called when all the data buffer (req->bio and
scsi_data_buffer) in the request is freed.
sd_unprep() uses rq->buffer to free discard page allocated in
sd_prepare_discard().

Allocating a fixed payload for discard requests always was a horrible hack,
and it's not coming to byte us when adding support for discard in DM/MD.
So change the code to leave the allocation of a payload to the lowlevel
driver. Unfortunately that means we'll need another hack, which allows
us to update the various block layer length fields indicating that we
have a payload. Instead of hiding this in sd.c, which we already partially
do for UNMAP support add a documented helper in the core block layer for it.

This patch (as1399) adds runtime-PM support to the sd driver. The
support is unsophisticated: If a SCSI disk device is mounted, or if
its device file is held open, then the device will not be
runtime-suspended; otherwise it will (provided userspace gives
permission by writing "auto" to the sysfs power/control attribute).
In order to make this work, a dev_set_drvdata() call had to be moved
from sd_probe_async() to sd_probe(). Also, a few lines of code were
changed to use a local variable instead of recalculating the address
of an embedded struct device.

Implement sd_unlock_native_capacity() method which calls into
hostt->unlock_native_capacity() if implemented. This will be invoked
by block layer if partitions extend beyond the end of the device and
can be used to implement, for example, on-demand ATA host protected
area unlocking.

Some arrays are giving I/O errors with ext3 filesystems when
SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE gets a UNIT_ATTENTION. What is happening is that
these commands have no retries, so the UNIT_ATTENTION causes the
barrier to fail. We should be enable retries here to clear any
transient error and allow the barrier to succeed.

Hazard testing uncovered yet another bug in sd. Under heavy reset
activity the retry counter might be exhausted and the command will be
returned with sense UNIT_ATTENTION/0x29/00 (POWER ON, RESET, OR BUS
DEVICE RESET OCCURRED). In those cases we should just increase the
retry counter again, retrying one more to clear up this Unit Attention
state.

sd always tries to submit a READ_CAPACITY(16) CDB,
regardless whether the host actually supports it.
queuecommand() will then return DID_ABORT, which is
not qualified enough to detect the true cause here.
So better check in sd_try_rc16 first if the cdblen
is supported.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.
