Currently, if there is a transport problem the iscsi drivers will return
outstanding commands (commands being exeucted by the driver/fw/hw) with
DID_BUS_BUSY and block the session so no new commands can be queued.
Commands that are caught between the failure handling and blocking are
failed with DID_IMM_RETRY or one of the scsi ml queuecommand return values.
When the recovery_timeout fires, the iscsi drivers then fail IO with
DID_NO_CONNECT.
For fcp, some drivers will fail some outstanding IO (disk but possibly not
tape) with DID_BUS_BUSY or DID_ERROR or some other value that causes a retry
and hits the scsi_error.c failfast check, block the rport, and commands
caught in the race are failed with DID_IMM_RETRY. Other drivers, may
hold onto all IO and wait for the terminate_rport_io or dev_loss_tmo_callbk
to be called.
The following patches attempt to unify what upper layers will see drivers
like multipath can make a good guess. This relies on drivers being
hooked into their transport class.
This first patch just defines two new host byte errors so drivers can
return the same value for when a rport/session is blocked and for
when the fast_io_fail_tmo fires.
The idea is that if the LLD/class detects a problem and is going to block
a rport/session, then if the LLD wants or must return the command to scsi-ml,
then it can return it with DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED. This will requeue
the IO into the same scsi queue it came from, until the fast io fail timer
fires and the class decides what to do.
When using multipath and the fast_io_fail_tmo fires then the class
can fail commands with DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST or drivers can use
DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST in their terminate_rport_io callbacks or
the equivlent in iscsi if we ever implement more advanced recovery methods.
A LLD, like lpfc, could continue to return DID_ERROR and then it will hit
the normal failfast path, so drivers do not have fully be ported to
work better. The point of the patches is that upper layers will
not see a failure that could be recovered from while the rport/session is
blocked until fast_io_fail_tmo/recovery_timeout fires.

Fixed patch/diff errors and renamed DID_TRANSPORT_BLOCKED to
DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED.
V1

Add support for variable-length, extended, and vendor specific
CDBs to scsi-ml. It is now possible for initiators and ULD's
to issue these types of commands. LLDs need not change much.
All they need is to raise the .max_cmd_len to the longest command
they support (see iscsi patch).
- clean-up some code paths that did not expect commands to be
larger than 16, and change cmd_len members' type to short as
char is not enough.

I was working on patches which add new transport error values, when I
noticed that DID_REQUEUE was not in the hostbyte_table. I do not think
there is any way to hit the code path where scsi_show_result is called
and where you return DID_REQUEUE, because DID_REQUEUE causes scsi-ml to
always requeue the command. However, for completeness and because I want
to one day send a patch that tries to add new host bytes values, I am
sending this patch.

Because scsi_print_sense_hdr prefixes with KERN_INFO, the output from
scsi_io_completion looks like:
sd 0:0:0:0: [sdb] Device not ready: <6>: Sense Key : 0x2 [current]
: ASC=0x4 ASCQ=0x3
By using scsi_show_sense_hdr, we can get the much more appealing output:
sd 0:0:0:0: [sdb] Device not ready: Sense Key : 0x2 [current]
sd 0:0:0:0: [sdb] Device not ready: ASC=0x4 ASCQ=0x3

Clean up constants.c and make result printing more user friendly:
- Refactor the command and sense functions so that the actual
formatting can be called from the various helper functions with the
correct prefix.
- Replace scsi_print_hostbyte() and scsi_print_driverbyte() with
scsi_print_result() which is verbose when CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS is
on.

With Achim patch the last user (gdth) is switched away from scsi_request
so we an kill it now. Also disables some code in i2o_scsi that was
broken since the sg driver stopped using scsi_requests.

scsi_print_msg() is an SPI-specific concept. This patch moves it from
constants.c to scsi_transport_spi.c and updates the Kconfig to link in
the SPI class for the drivers which use scsi_print_msg().

This should eliminate (at least in the mid layer) to make numeric
assumptions about any of the enumeration variables. As a side effect,
it will also make all the messages consistent and line us up nicely for
the error logging strategy (if it ever shows itself again).

This one removes struct scsi_request entirely from sd. In the process,
I noticed we have no callers of scsi_wait_req who don't immediately
normalise the sense, so I updated the API to make it take a struct
scsi_sense_hdr instead of simply a big sense buffer.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
