During one of our testing, we noticed that mode select command sent from the host did not have the lun_table updated. Problem is root caused to the way lun table is updated. Lun table update was done after the call to blk_rq_map_kern is made. This was causing problem because kernel uses bounce buffer(bio_copy_kern) if the address is not aligned. The command buffer updated after the call(blk_rq_map_kern) was not going on the wire. Moved the code to update the lun_table before the call to fix the problem.

Bus reset is not required for SAS Controller. It is valid for mptspi and mptfc, but for mptsas it is not required. It is an extra work for Error handling escallation for mptsas. Removing bus reset from error handling will eventually speedup Error handling for SAS controller.

SAS1.0 Controller was not able to detect SAS2.0 Expanders due to Link RATE detection was limited to 1.5 Gbps and 3.0 Gbps for SAS1 controllers. Added detection for 6.0 Gbps link. Now, user can mix-up 6.0 Gpbs links with SAS1.0 controller. e.g SAS1.0 HBA <----> SAS2.0 Expander <------> SAS2.0 Expander <--------> SAS1.0 Drive.

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.

fcoe uses the system_wq to destroy ports and the work items need to be flushed before the driver is unloaded. As the work items free the containing data structure, they can't be flushed directly. The workqueue should be flushed instead. Also, the destruction works can be chained - ie. destruction of a port may lead to destruction of another port where the work item for the former queues the work for the latter. Currently, the depth of chain can be at most two and fcoe_exit() makes sure everything is complete by calling flush_scheduled_work() twice. With commit c8efcc25 (workqueue: allow chained queueing during destruction), destroy_workqueue() can take care of chained works on workqueue destruction. Add and use fcoe_wq instead. Simply destroying fcoe_wq on driver unload takes care of flushing.

Problem: From initaitor machine, when queried role of target (other end of connection), it is "initiator", hence SCSI-ml doesn't send any LUN Inquiry commands. Fix: If there is a registered target for FC_TYPE_FCP, extend lport's params (capability) to be target as well, By default lport params are INITIATOR only. Having this fix, caused initiator to send SCSI LUN inquiry command to target.

Remove the existing sysfs entry points of the fcoe.ko module parameters that are used to create/destroy/enable/disable an FCoE instance, rather, use the newly added fcoe transport code to attach itself as an FCoE transport provider when fcoe.ko gets loaded. There is no functionality change on the logic of fcoe interacts with upper libfc and lower netdev. The fcoe transport only acts as thin layer to provide a unified interface for all fcoe transport providers so all FCoE instances on any network interfaces from all vendors can be managed through the same Open-FCoE.org's user space tool package, which also has full DCB support.

Add the new fcoe_transport.c file that implements basic fcoe transport interface. Eventually, the sysfs entries to create/destroy/enable/disable an FCoE instance will be coming to the fcoe transport layer, who does a look-up to find the corresponding transport provide and pass the corresponding action over to the identified provider. The fcoe.ko will become the default fcoe transport provider that can support FCoE on any given netdev interfaces, as the Open-FCoE.org's default software FCoE HBA solution. Any vendor specific FCoE HBA driver that is built on top of Open-FCoE's kernel stack of libfc & libfcoe as well as the user land tool of fcoe-utils can easily plug-in and start running FCoE on their network interfaces. The fcoe.ko will be converted to act as the default provider if no vendor specific transport provider is found, as it is always added to the very end of the list of attached transports.

Problem: In case of exchange responder case, EMA selection was defaulted to the last EMA from EMA list (lport.ema_list). If exchange ID is selected from offload pool and not setup DDP, resulting into incorrect selection of EMA, and eventually dropping the packet because unable to find exchange. Fix: Enhanced the exchange ID selection (depending upon request type and exchange responder) Made necessary enhancement in EMA selection algorithm.

Allow FC-4 provider modules to hook into libfc, mostly for targets. This should allow any FC-4 module to handle PRLI requests and maintain process-association states. Each provider registers its ops with libfc and then will be called for any incoming PRLI for that FC-4 type on any instance. The provider can decide whether to handle that particular instance using any method it likes, such as ACLs or other configuration information. A count is kept of the number of successful PRLIs from the remote port. Providers are called back with an implicit PRLO when the remote port is about to be deleted or has been reset. fc_lport_recv_req() now sends incoming FC-4 requests to FC-4 providers, and there is a built-in provider always registered for handling incoming ELS requests. The call to provider recv() routines uses rcu_read_lock() so that providers aren't removed during the call. That lock is very cheap and shouldn't affect any performance on ELS requests. Providers can rely on the RCU lock to protect a session lookup as well.

Allowing FCoE LOGO followed by CVL in this case prevents FIP login back to the FCF and then keeps lport offline, only FIP LOGO and CLV needs to be processed while in FIP mode, therefore this patch drops FCoE LOGO in FIP mode. Added fcoe_filter_frames() to filter out above mentioned LOGO in fcoe rx path along with other existing filtering in code for bad CRC frames. Adding separate fcoe_filter_frames function helped with better code indentations and if needed then same will allow adding more filters at one place in future. This LOGO drop is added after FCP frames passed up to avoid any additional checks on fast path for this.

vports are not grabbing module references but are releasing them. This causes the module reference count to decrement too many times and it wraps around past 0. The solution is to do a module_put() in fcoe_interface_release() so that the reference is only released when the fcoe_interface is released. There is a one-to-one relationship between the N_Port and the fcoe_interface, so the module reference will only be dropped when the N_Port is destroyed To create symetry in the code this patch moves the try_module_get() call into fcoe_interface_create(). This means that only the N_Port will grab a reference to the module when its corresponding fcoe_interface is created. This patch also makes it so that the fcoe_interface_create() routine encodes any error codes in the fcoe_interface pointer returned. This way its caller, fcoe_create(), can return an accurate error code.

The fsp's xfer_ddp is used as indication of the exchange id for the DDPed I/O. We should always initialize it as FC_XID_UNKNOWN for a newly allocated fsp, otherwise the fsp allocated in fc_fcp, i.e., not from queuecommand like LUN RESET that is not doing DDP may still think DDP is setup for it since xid 0 is valid and goes on to call fc_fcp_ddp_done() in fc_fcp_resp() from fc_tm_done(). So, set xfer_ddp as FC_XID_UNKNOWN in fc_fcp_pkt_alloc() now. Also removes the setting of fsp->lp as it's already done when fsp is allocated.

Instead of just passing 'EIO' for any I/O error we should be notifying the upper layers with more details about the cause of this error. Update the possible I/O errors to: - ENOLINK: Link failure between host and target - EIO: Retryable I/O error - EREMOTEIO: Non-retryable I/O error - EBADE: I/O error restricted to the I_T_L nexus 'Retryable' in this context means that an I/O error _might_ be restricted to the I_T_L nexus (vulgo: path), so retrying on another nexus / path might succeed. 'Non-retryable' in general refers to a target failure, so this error will always be generated regardless of the I_T_L nexus it was send on. I/O errors restricted to the I_T_L nexus might be retried on another nexus / path, but they should _not_ be queued if no paths are available.

This patch simplifies workqueue usage. * A driver specific workqueue pm8001_wq is created to serve these work items. * To avoid confusion, the "queue" suffixes are dropped from work items and functions. * Delayed queueing was never used. pm8001_work now uses work_struct instead. * The driver no longer keeps track of pending works. All pm8001_works are queued to pm8001_wq and the workqueue is flushed as necessary. flush_scheduled_work() usage is removed during conversion.

Simple conversions to drop flush_scheduled_work() usages in drivers/scsi. More involved ones will be done in separate patches. * NCR5380, megaraid_sas: cancel_delayed_work() + flush_scheduled_work() -> cancel_delayed_work_sync(). * mpt2sas_scsih: drop unnecessary flush_scheduled_work(). * arcmsr_hba, ipr, pmcraid: flush the used work explicitly instead of using flush_scheduled_work().

Since sg-read is a bidi operation, it is a gain to convert a single sg entry into a regular read. Better do this in the generic layer then force each caller to do so. Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
