Salyzyn, Mark authored
There is some residual cleanup of the last series of patches and the need to bump the revision number to draw the line in the sand. The cmd->SCp.phase is set in the aac_valid_context routine, then set again to the same value following it's return. The cmd->scsi_done is set twice in the aac_queuecommand routine. Free up the scsidev FILO in aac_probe_container as it is not needed further down the function in any case. Improve the efficiency of the abort handler kernel print parameters. Bump revision number of driver to approximate the equivalent in the Adaptec supplied version.

Captured a panic on an older kernel where an application issuing commands via sg was sending requests that lacked a request_buffer, thus the buffer pointer used in aac_internal_transer was NULL. The application was fixed closing the issue, but felt it was advised to immunize the driver against the eventuality.

Received from Mark Salyzyn, This set of fixes improve error handling stability of the driver. A popular manifestation of the problems is an NULL pointer reference in the interrupt handler when referencing portions of the scsi command context, or in the scsi_done handling when an offlined device is referenced. The aacraid driver currently does not get notification of orphaned command completions due to devices going offline. The driver also fails to handle the commands that are finished by the error handler, and thus can complete again later at the hands of the adapter causing situations of completion of an invalid scsi command context. Test Unit Ready calls abort assuming that the abort was successful, but are not, and thus when the interrupt from the adapter occurs, they reference invalid command contexts. We add in a TIMED_OUT flag to inform the aacraid FIB context that the interrupt service should merely release the driver resources and not complete the command up. We take advantage of this with the abort handler as well for select abortable commands. And we detect and react if a command that can not be aborted is currently still outstanding to the controller when reissued by the retry mechanism.

Received from Mark Salyzyn, This little patch removes the ',cid)' container identification argument from some of the functions. The argument is used in some cases as merely a debug helper and thus not used, and in others, the value can be quickly acquired from the scsi command in their single solitary use in the procedure rather than wasting resources on passing the argument in from above.

Received from Mark Salyzyn, The aac_probe_container call blocks. This is an issue because it is called on occasion in the context of the queuecommand handler. Once in a blue moon this has resulted in a kernel panic sleeping during interrupt; or problems with some embedded system versions of the kernel that depend on queuecommand to not block. This ugly patch rewrites the aac_probe_container call into a new routine _aac_probe_container that is an asynchronous state machine to complete the series of operations. The legacy blocking aac_probe_container call used in other areas of the driver (during initialization scanning for all targets and in the separate hot-add/remove [aacraid] thread) merely issues _aac_probe_container and then simple spins calling schedule() waiting for completion.

After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes. There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need anything defined in there. Presumably these includes were once needed for macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the course of cleaning it up. To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble. Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha, arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig, allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all configs in arch/arm/configs on arm. I also checked that no new warnings were introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted by unnecessarily included header files).

Received from Mark Salyzyn: I am placing this functionality into an insmod parameter. Normally the physical components are exported to sg, and are blocked from showing up in sd. Note that the pass-through I/O path via the driver through the Firmware to the physical disks is not an optimized path, the card is designed for Hardware RAID, elevator sorting and caching. This should not be used as a means for utilizing the aacraid based controllers as a generic scsi/SATA/SAS controller, performance should suck by a few percentage points, any RAID meta-data on the drives will confuse the controller about who owns the drives and there is a high risk of destroying content in both directions. Unreliable and for experimentation or strange controlled circumstances only. Signed-off-by: Mark Haverkamp <markh@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Various scsi drivers use scsi_cmnd.buffer and scsi_cmnd.bufflen in their queuecommand functions. Those fields are internal storage for the midlayer only and are used to restore the original payload after request_buffer and request_bufflen have been overwritten for EH. Using the buffer and bufflen fields means they do very broken things in error handling. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

Received From Mark Salyzyn Add the ability to adjust for unusual corner case failures. Both of these additional module parameters deal with embedded, non-intel or complicated system scenarios. Aif_timeout can be increased past the default 2 minute timeout to drop application registrations when a system has an unusually high event load resulting from continuing management requests, or simultaneous builds, or sluggish user space as a result of system load. Startup_timeout can be increased past the default 3 minute timeout to drop an adapter initialization for systems that have a very large number of targets, or slow to spin-up targets, or a complicated set of array configurations that extend the time for the firmware to declare that it is operational. This timeout would only have an affect on non-intel based systems, as the (more patient) BIOS would generally be where the startup delay would be dealt with.

Received From Mark Salyzyn. In order to support user tools accessing the array components (SMART, Mode Page information, Cache page adjustments, WWN determination, Firmware updates etc), we take advantage of the no_uld_attach flag and deprecate the code that filters Inquiries to block the requests to array components. The quirk prevents the sd layer from attaching to the components. We also took the opportunity to balance the queue depths based on the total adapter queue depth to the array devices to reduce the chances of starvation.

Received from Mark Salyzyn from Adaptec. The size of the command packet's scatter gather list maximum size was miscalculated in the low range leading to the driver initialization limiting the maximum i/o size that could go to the Adapter.

Received from Mark Salyzyn from Adaptec. In the rare instances where the adapter, or the motherboard, is misbehaving; driver initialization or shutdown becomes problematic. By introducing a 3 minute timeout on the first interrupt driven command during initialization, or the issuance of the adapter shutdown command during driver unload, we can resolve the lockup problems induced by common (but rare) hardware misbehaviors. The timeout during initialization, should it occur, is accompanied by a message presented to the console and the logs indicating that the user should inspect and resolve problems with interrupt routing.

The cmd->timeout field has been obsolete for a while now. While looking to remove it, I came across this use in the aacraid driver. It looks like you want to initialise the firmware with the current timeout of the command (in seconds), so the value I think you should be using is cmd->timeout_per_command.
