In the direct-attached case this routine returns the phy on which this
device was first discovered. Which is broken if we want to support
wide-targets, as this phy reference can become stale even though the
port is still active.
In the expander-attached case this routine tries to lookup the phy by
scanning the attached sas addresses of the parent expander, and BUG_ONs
if it can't find it. However since eh and the libsas workqueue run
independently we can still be attempting device recovery via eh after
libsas has recorded the device as detached. This is even easier to hit
now that eh is blocked while device domain rediscovery takes place, and
that libata is fed more timed out commands increasing the chances that
it will try to recover the ata device.
Arrange for dev->phy to always point to a last known good phy, it may be
stale after the port is torn down, but it will catch up for wide port
reconfigurations, and never be NULL.

Use ata_wait_after_reset() to poll for link recovery after a reset.
This combined with sas_ha->eh_mutex prevents expander rediscovery from
probing phys in an intermediate state. Local discovery does not have a
mechanism to filter link status changes during this timeout, so it
remains the responsibility of lldds to prevent premature port teardown.
Although once all lldd's support ->lldd_ata_check_ready() that could be
used as a gate to local port teardown.
The signature fis is re-transmitted when the link comes back so we
should be revalidating the ata device class, but that is left to a future
patch.

Link resets leave ata affiliations intact, so arrange for libsas to make
an effort to avoid dropping the device due to a slow-to-recover link.
Towards this end carry out reset in the host workqueue so that it can
check for ata devices and kick the reset request to libata. Hard
resets, in contrast, bypass libata since they are meant for associating
an ata device with another initiator in the domain (tears down
affiliations).
Need to add a new transport_sas_phy_reset() since the current
sas_phy_reset() is a utility function to libsas lldds. They are not
prepared for it to loop back into eh.

Since sata devices can take several seconds to recover the link on reset
the 0.5 seconds that libsas currently waits may not be enough. Instead
if we are rediscovering a phy that was previously attached to a sata
device let libata handle any resets to encourage the device to transmit
the initial fis.
Once sas_ata_hard_reset() and lldds learn how to honor 'deadline' libsas
should stop encountering phys in an intermediate state, until then this
will loop until the fis is transmitted or ->attached_sas_addr gets
cleared, but in the more likely initial discovery case we keep existing
behavior.

libsas-eh if it successfully aborts an ata command will hide the timeout
condition (AC_ERR_TIMEOUT) from libata. The command likely completes
with the all-zero task->task_status it started with. Instead, interpret
a TMF_RESP_FUNC_COMPLETE as the end of the sas_task but keep the scmd
around for libata-eh to handle.

Until we have told the lldd to forget a task a timed out operation can
return from the hardware at any time. Since completion frees the task
we need to make sure that no tasks run their normal completion handler
once eh has decided to manage the task. Similar to
ata_scsi_cmd_error_handler() freeze completions to let eh judge the
outcome of the race.
Task collector mode is problematic because it presents a situation where
a task can be timed out and aborted before the lldd has even seen it.
For this case we need to guarantee that a task that an lldd has been
told to forget does not get queued after the lldd says "never seen it".
With sas_scsi_timed_out we achieve this with the ->task_queue_flush
mutex, rather than adding more time.

point we are prepared for scsi_eh_flush_done_q() to finish off the scmd.
Introduce sas_end_task() to capture the final response status from the

Also take the opportunity to kill this warning.

Since sas_ata does not implement ->freeze(), completions for scmds and
internal commands can still arrive concurrent with
ata_scsi_cmd_error_handler() and sas_ata_post_internal() respectively.
By the time either of those is called libata has committed to completing
the qc, and the ATA_PFLAG_FROZEN flag tells sas_ata_task_done() it has
lost the race.
In the sas_ata_post_internal() case we take on the additional
responsibility of freeing the sas_task to close the race with
sas_ata_task_done() freeing the the task while sas_ata_post_internal()
is in the process of invoking ->lldd_abort_task().

sas_discover_sata() notifies lldds of sata devices twice. Once to allow
the 'identify' to be sent, and a second time to allow aic94xx (the only
libsas driver that cares about sata_dev.identify) to setup NCQ
parameters before the device becomes known to the midlayer. Replace
this double notification and intervening 'identify' with an explicit
->lldd_ata_set_dmamode notification. With this change all ata internal
commands are issued by libata, so we no longer need sas_issue_ata_cmd().
The data from the identify command only needs to be cached in one
location so ata_device.id replaces domain_device.sata_dev.identify.

libata error handling provides for a timeout for link recovery. libsas
must not rescan for previously known devices in this interval otherwise
it may remove a device that is simply waiting for its link to recover.
Let libata-eh make the determination of when the link is stable and
prevent libsas (host workqueue) from taking action while this
determination is pending.
Using a mutex (ha->disco_mutex) to flush and disable revalidation while
eh is running requires any discovery action that may block on eh be
moved to its own context outside the lock. Probing ATA devices
explicitly waits on ata-eh and the cache-flush-io issued during device
removal may also pend awaiting eh completion. Essentially any rphy
add/remove activity needs to run outside the lock.
This adds two new cleanup states for sas_unregister_domain_devices()
'allocated-but-not-probed', and 'flagged-for-destruction'. In the
'allocated-but-not-probed' state dev->rphy points to a rphy that is
known to have not been through a sas_rphy_add() event. At domain
teardown check if this device is still pending probe and cleanup
accordingly. Similarly if a device has already been queued for removal
then sas_unregister_domain_devices has nothing to do.

When an lldd invokes ->notify_port_event() it can trigger a chain of libsas
events to:
1/ form the port and find the direct attached device
2/ if the attached device is an expander perform domain discovery
A call to flush_workqueue() will only flush the initial port formation work.
Currently libsas users need to call scsi_flush_work() up to the max depth of
chain (which will grow from 2 to 3 when ata discovery is moved to its own
discovery event). Instead of open coding multiple calls switch to use
drain_workqueue() to flush sas work.
drain_workqueue() does not handle new work submitted during the drain so
libsas needs a bit of infrastructure to hold off unchained work submissions
while a drain is in flight. A lldd ->notify() event is considered 'unchained'
while a sas_discover_event() is 'chained'. As Tejun notes:
"For now, I think it would be best to add private wrapper in libsas to
support deferring unchained work items while draining."

We have experienced several devices which fail in a fashion we do not
currently handle gracefully in SCSI. After a failure these devices will
respond to the SCSI primary command set (INQUIRY, TEST UNIT READY, etc.)
but any command accessing the storage medium will time out.
The following patch adds an callback that can be used by upper level
drivers to inspect the results of an error handling command. This in
turn has been used to implement additional checking in the SCSI disk
driver.
If a medium access command fails twice but TEST UNIT READY succeeds both
times in the subsequent error handling we will offline the device. The
maximum number of failed commands required to take a device offline can
be tweaked in sysfs.
Also add a new error flag to scsi_debug which allows this scenario to be
easily reproduced.

This patch adds support for Fabric Device Management
Interface as per FC-GS-4 spec. in libfc. Any driver
making use of libfc can enable fdmi state machine
for a given lport.
If lport has enabled FDMI support the lport state
machine will transition into FDMI after completing
the DNS states and before entering the SCR state.
The FDMI state transition is such that if there is an
error, it won't stop the lport state machine from
transitioning and the it will behave as if there was
no FDMI support.
The FDMI HBA attributes are registed with the Management
server via Register HBA (RHBA) command and the port
attributes are reigstered using the Register Port(RPA)
command.

With previous change, now the ata port runtime suspend will happen as:
disk suspend --> scsi target suspend --> scsi host suspend --> ata port
suspend
ata port(parent device) suspend need to schedule scsi EH which will resume
scsi host(child device). Then the child device resume will in turn make
parent device resume first. This is kind of recursive.
This patch adds a new flag Scsi_Host::eh_noresume.
ata port will set this flag to skip the runtime PM calls on scsi host.

There could be multiple userspace entities creating/destroying/
recoverying sessions and also the kernel's iscsi drivers could
be doing this too. If the userspace apps do try to manage the kernel
ones it can get the driver/fw out of sync and cause the user to
loose the root disk, oopses or ping ponging becasue userspace
wants to do one thing but the kernel manager thought we
are trying to do another.
This patch fixes the problem by just exporting the pid of
the entity that created the session. Userspace programs like
iscsid, iscsiadm, iscsistart, qlogic's tools, etc, can then
figure out which sessions they own and only manage them.

This is finally the RAID5 Write support.
The bigger part of this patch is not the XOR engine itself, But the
read4write logic, which is a complete mini prepare_for_striping
reading engine that can read scattered pages of a stripe into cache
so it can be used for XOR calculation. That is, if the write was not
stripe aligned.
The main algorithm behind the XOR engine is the 2 dimensional array:
struct __stripe_pages_2d.
A drawing might save 1000 words
---
__stripe_pages_2d
|
n = pages_in_stripe_unit;
w = group_width - parity;
| pages array presented to the XOR lib
| |
V |
__1_page_stripe[0].pages --> [c0][c1]..[cw][c_par] <---|
| |
__1_page_stripe[1].pages --> [c0][c1]..[cw][c_par] <---
|
... | ...
|
__1_page_stripe[n].pages --> [c0][c1]..[cw][c_par]
^
|
data added columns first then row
---
The pages are put on this array columns first. .i.e:
p0-of-c0, p1-of-c0, ... pn-of-c0, p0-of-c1, ...
So we are doing a corner turn of the pages.
Note that pages will zigzag down and left. but are put sequentially
in growing order. So when the time comes to XOR the stripe, only the
beginning and end of the array need be checked. We scan the array
and any NULL spot will be field by pages-to-be-read.
The FS that wants to support RAID5 needs to supply an
operations-vector that searches a given page in cache, and specifies
if the page is uptodate or need reading. All these pages to be read
are put on a slave ore_io_state and synchronously read. All the pages
of a stripe are read in one IO, using the scatter gather mechanism.
In write we constrain our IO to only be incomplete on a single
stripe. Meaning either the complete IO is within a single stripe so
we might have pages to read from both beginning or end of the
strip. Or we have some reading to do at beginning but end at strip
boundary. The left over pages are pushed to the next IO by the API
already established by previous work, where an IO offset/length
combination presented to the ORE might get the length truncated and
the user must re-submit the leftover pages. (Both exofs and NFS
support this)
But any ORE user should make it's best effort to align it's IO
before hand and avoid complications. A cached ore_layout->stripe_size
member can be used for that calculation. (NOTE: that ORE demands
that stripe_size may not be bigger then 32bit)
What else? Well read it and tell me.

This patch introduces the first stage of RAID5 support
mainly the skip-over-raid-units when reading. For
writes it inserts BLANK units, into where XOR blocks
should be calculated and written to.
It introduces the new "general raid maths", and the main
additional parameters and components needed for raid5.
Since at this stage it could corrupt future version that
actually do support raid5. The enablement of raid5
mounting and setting of parity-count > 0 is disabled. So
the raid5 code will never be used. Mounting of raid5 is
only enabled later once the basic XOR write is also in.
But if the patch "enable RAID5" is applied this code has
been tested to be able to properly read raid5 volumes
and is according to standard.
Also it has been tested that the new maths still properly
supports RAID0 and grouping code just as before.
(BTW: I have found more bugs in the pnfs-obj RAID math
fixed here)
The ore.c file is getting too big, so new ore_raid.[hc]
files are added that will include the special raid stuff
that are not used in striping and mirrors. In future write
support these will get bigger.
When adding the ore_raid.c to Kbuild file I was forced to
rename ore.ko to libore.ko. Is it possible to keep source
file, say ore.c and module file ore.ko the same even if there
are multiple files inside ore.ko?

Userspace was sending the priority/id part of the vlan tag
and sysfs was displaying the id in the vlan file. This
renames the vlan sysfs file to vlan_id to reflect that it
was showing the id and to match the vlan_priority file.
This also adds a ISCSI_NET_PARAM_VLAN_TAG iscsi nl command
to relfect that we are sending down the vlan/priority
part of the tag.

This has the driver use helpers for a common operation and fixes
a issue where if multiple iscsi params are sent they could be
sent at offsets that cause unaligned accesses. The nla helpers
account for the padding needed to align properly for the driver.

port->dev_list maintains a list of devices attached to a given sas root port.
It needs to be mutated under a lock as contexts outside of the
single-threaded-libsas-workqueue access the list via sas_find_dev_by_rphy().
Fixup locations where the list was being mutated without a lock.
This is a follow-up to commit 5911e963 "[SCSI] libsas: remove expander
from dev list on error", where Luben noted [1]:
> 2/ We have unlocked list manipulations in sas_ex_discover_end_dev(),
> sas_unregister_common_dev(), and sas_ex_discover_end_dev()
Yes, I can see that and that is very unfortunate.
