The NCR53c406a scsi driver normally does not use DMA, unless the USE_PIO macro is disabled by modifying the source code. The call to free_dma() for some reason uses #ifdef USE_DMA, which does not do the right thing, since USE_DMA is defined as a boolean that is either 0 or 1, but always present. One case where it gets in the way is randconfig builds on ARM, which depending on the configuration does not provide a free_dma() function, causing this build error: drivers/scsi/NCR53c406a.c: In function 'NCR53c406a_release': drivers/scsi/NCR53c406a.c:600:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'free_dma' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] free_dma(shost->dma_channel); ^ This changes the code to use #if USE_DMA, to match the rest of the file, which seems to be what the author intended.

Current the midlayer fakes up a struct request for the explicit reset ioctls, and those don't have a tag allocated to them. The fnic driver pokes into midlayer structures to paper over this design issue, but that won't work for the blk-mq case. Either someone who can actually test the hardware will have to come up with a similar hack for the blk-mq case, or we'll have to bite the bullet and fix the way the EH ioctls work for real, but until that happens we fail these explicit requests here.

This patch adds support for an alternate I/O path in the scsi midlayer which uses the blk-mq infrastructure instead of the legacy request code. Use of blk-mq is fully transparent to drivers, although for now a host template field is provided to opt out of blk-mq usage in case any unforseen incompatibilities arise. In general replacing the legacy request code with blk-mq is a simple and mostly mechanical transformation. The biggest exception is the new code that deals with the fact the I/O submissions in blk-mq must happen from process context, which slightly complicates the I/O completion handler. The second biggest differences is that blk-mq is build around the concept of preallocated requests that also include driver specific data, which in SCSI context means the scsi_cmnd structure. This completely avoids dynamic memory allocations for the fast path through I/O submission. Due the preallocated requests the MQ code path exclusively uses the host-wide shared tag allocator instead of a per-LUN one. This only affects drivers actually using the block layer provided tag allocator instead of their own. Unlike the old path blk-mq always provides a tag, although drivers don't have to use it. For now the blk-mq path is disable by defauly and must be enabled using the "use_blk_mq" module parameter. Once the remaining work in the block layer to make blk-mq more suitable for slow devices is complete I hope to make it the default and eventually even remove the old code path. Based on the earlier scsi-mq prototype by Nicholas Bellinger. Thanks to Bart Van Assche and Robert Elliot for testing, benchmarking and various sugestions and code contributions.

Blk-mq drivers usually preallocate their S/G list as part of the request, but if we want to support the very large S/G lists currently supported by the SCSI code that would tie up a lot of memory in the preallocated request pool. Add support to the scatterlist code so that it can initialize a S/G list that uses a preallocated first chunks and dynamically allocated additional chunks. That way the scsi-mq code can preallocate a first page worth of S/G entries as part of the request, and dynamically extend the S/G list when needed.

Replace the calls to the various blk_end_request variants with opencode equivalents. Blk-mq is using a model that gives the driver control between the bio updates and the actual completion, and making the old code follow that same model allows us to keep the code more similar for both paths.
