This is mostly updates to the usual drivers: mpt3sas, lpfc, qla2xxx,
 hisi_sas, smartpqi, megaraid_sas, arcmsr.  In addition, with the
 continuing absence of Nic we have target updates for tcmu and target
 core (all with reviews and acks).  The biggest observable change is
 going to be that we're (again) trying to switch to mulitqueue as the
 default (a user can still override the setting on the kernel command
 line).  Other major core stuff is the removal of the remaining
 Microchannel drivers, an update of the internal timers and some
 reworks of completion and result handling.

Souptick Joarder a38b80c5f4 scsi: cxlflash: Change return type for fault handler
Use new return type vm_fault_t for fault handler. For now, this is just
documenting that the function returns a VM_FAULT value rather than an
errno. Once all instances are converted, vm_fault_t will become a distinct
type.

Ref-> commit 1c8f422059 ("mm: change return type to vm_fault_t")

Previously, VM_FAULT_NOPAGE was returned without verifying return value of
vm_insert_pfn. The new inline vmf_insert_pfn() will address this issue by
returning correct VM_FAULT_* type from fault handler.

Uma Krishnan cd43c221bb scsi: cxlflash: Isolate external module dependencies
Depending on the underlying transport, cxlflash has a dependency on either
the CXL or OCXL drivers, which are enabled via their Kconfig option.
Instead of having a module wide dependency on these config options, it is
better to isolate the object modules that are dependent on the CXL and OCXL
drivers and adjust the module dependencies accordingly.

This commit isolates the object files that are dependent on CXL and/or
OCXL. The cxl/ocxl fops used in the core driver are tucked under an ifdef to
avoid compilation errors.

Uma Krishnan 32a9ae415b scsi: cxlflash: Acquire semaphore before invoking ioctl services
When a superpipe process that makes use of virtual LUNs is terminated or
killed abruptly, there is a possibility that the cxlflash driver could hang
and deprive other operations on the adapter.

The release fop registered to be invoked on a context close, detaches every
LUN associated with the context. The underlying service to detach the LUN
assumes it has been called with the read semaphore held, and releases the
semaphore before any operation that could be time consuming.

When invoked without holding the read semaphore, an opportunity is created
for the semaphore's count to become negative when it is temporarily released
during one of these potential lengthy operations. This negative count
results in subsequent acquisition attempts taking forever, leading to the
hang.

To support the current design point of holding the semaphore on the ioctl()
paths, the release fop should acquire it before invoking any ioctl services.

The SISLite specification has been updated for OCXL to support communicating

that is advertised for OCXL AFUs and new registers to hold the object handle

mapped trigger page. Note that because these mappings are kernel only, the
PASID of a kernel context must be used to satisfy the translation.

currently resides as a nested member of both the context information and

Matthew R. Ochs d84c198f43 scsi: cxlflash: Derive pid through accessors
The cxlflash driver tracks process IDs alongside contexts to validate
context ownership. Currently, the process IDs are derived by directly
accessing values from the 'current' task pointer. While this method of
access is fine for the current process, it is incorrect when the parent
process ID is needed as the access requires serialization.

To address the incorrect issue and provide a consistent means of
deriving the process ID within the cxlflash driver, use the task
accessors defined linux/sched.h.

Matthew R. Ochs c4a11827b7 scsi: cxlflash: Fix context reference tracking on detach
Commit 888baf069f ("scsi: cxlflash: Add kref to context") introduced a
kref to the context. In particular, the detach routine was updated to
use the kref services for managing the removal and destruction of a
context.

As part of this change, the tracking mechanism internal to the detach
handler was refactored. This introduced a bug that can cause the
tracking state to be lost. This can lead to a situation where exclusive
access to a context is prematurely [and unknowingly] relinquished for
the executing thread.

To remedy, only update the tracking state when the kref operation
indicates the context was removed.

Matthew R. Ochs cd34af40a0 scsi: cxlflash: Transition to application close model
Caching the adapter file descriptor and performing a close on behalf of
an application is a poor design. This is due to the fact that once a
file descriptor in installed, it is free to be altered without the
knowledge of the cxlflash driver. This can lead to inconsistencies
between the application and kernel. Furthermore, the nature of the
former design is more exploitable and thus should be abandoned.

To support applications performing a close on the adapter file that is
associated with a context, a new flag is introduced to the user API to
indicate to applications that they are responsible for the close
following the cleanup (detach) of a context. The documentation is also
updated to reflect this change in behavior.

The context removal routine requires access to the owning adapter
structure to reset the context within the AFU as part of the tear down
sequence. In order to support kref adoption, the owning adapter must be
accessible from the release handler. As the kref framework only provides
the kref reference as the sole parameter, another means is needed to
derive the owning adapter.

As a remedy, the owning adapter reference is saved off within the
context during initialization.

Matthew R. Ochs 41b99e1a30 scsi: cxlflash: Avoid mutex when destroying context
Context information structures are protected by a mutex that is held
when accessing/manipulating the context. When the code that manages
these structures was authored, a decision was made to include taking the
mutex as part of the allocation/initialization sequence and also handle
the scenario where the mutex was already held when freeing the context.

While not a problem outright, this design decision has been deemed as
too flexible and the code should be made more rigid to avoid future
bugs.  In addition, further review of the code yields that the existing
mutex manipulations in both of these context management paths are
superfluous.

This commit removes the obtaining of the context mutex in the context
initialization routine and assumes the mutex is not held in the context
free path.

When a cxlflash adapter goes into EEH recovery and multiple processes

logged after a couple of minutes is:

The hang is because of a 3 way dead-lock:

Process B holds the semaphore and waits for the recovery mutex.
eehd waits for semaphore.

The fix is to have Process B above release the semaphore before
attempting to acquire the recovery mutex. This will allow
eehd to proceed to completion.

Uma Krishnan 5d1952acd0 cxlflash: Reorder user context initialization
In order to support cxlflash in the PowerVM environment, underlying
hypervisor APIs have imposed a kernel API ordering change.

For the superpipe access to LUN, user applications need a context.
The cxlflash module creates this context by making a sequence of
cxl calls. In the current code, a context is initialized via
cxl_dev_context_init() followed by cxl_process_element(), a function
that obtains the process element id. Finally, cxl_start_work()
is called to attach the process element.

In the PowerVM environment, a process element id cannot be obtained
from the hypervisor until the process element is attached. The
cxlflash module is unable to create contexts without a valid
process element id.

To fix this problem, cxl_start_work() is called before obtaining
the process element id.

Matthew R. Ochs 8a96b52af5 cxlflash: Simplify attach path error cleanup
The cxlflash_disk_attach() routine currently uses a cascading error
gate strategy for its error cleanup path. While this strategy is
commonly used to handle cleanup scenarios, it is too restrictive when
function callouts need to be restructured. Problems range from
inserting error path bugs in previously 'good' code to the cleanup
path imposing design changes to how the normal path is structured.
A less restrictive approach is needed to support ordering changes
that come about when operating in different environments.

To overcome this restriction, the error cleanup path is modified to
have a single entrypoint and use conditional logic to cleanup where
necessary. Entities that require multiple cleanup steps must be
carefully vetted to ensure their APIs support state. In cases where
they do not (none as of this commit) additional local variables can
be used to maintain state on their behalf.

Matthew R. Ochs 5e6632d19e cxlflash: Split out context initialization
Presently, context information structures are allocated and
initialized in the same routine, create_context(). This imposes
an ordering restriction such that all pieces of information needed
to initialize a context must be known before the context is even
allocated.

This design point is not flexible when the order of context
creation needs to be modified. Specifically, this can lead to
problems when members of the context information structure are
a part of an ordering dependency (i.e. - the 'work' structure
embedded within the context).

To remedy, the allocation is left as-is, inside of the existing
create_context() routine and the initialization is transitioned
to a new void routine, init_context(). At the same time, in
anticipation of these routines not being called in sequence, a
state boolean is added to the context information structure to
track when the context has been initilized. The context teardown
routine, destroy_context(), is modified to support being called
with a non-initialized context.

Matthew R. Ochs a82544c7ba cxlflash: Fix to avoid bypassing context cleanup
Contexts may be skipped over for cleanup in situations where contention
for the adapter's table-list mutex is experienced in the presence of a
signal during the execution of the release handler.

This can lead to two known issues:

 - A hang condition on remove as that path tries to wait for users to
   cleanup - something that will never complete should this scenario play
   out as the user has already cleaned up from their perspective.

 - An Oops in the unmap_mapping_range() call that is made as part of
   the user waiting mechanism that is invoked on remove when contexts
   are found to still exist.

The root cause of this issue can be found in get_context() and how the
table-list mutex is acquired. As this code path is shared by several
different access points within the driver, a decision was made during
the development cycle to acquire this mutex in this location using the
interruptible version of the mutex locking service. In almost all of
the use-cases and environmental scenarios this holds up, even when the
mutex is contended. However, for critical system threads (such as the
release handler), failing to acquire the mutex and bailing with the
intention of the user being able to try again later is unacceptable.

In such a scenario, the context _must_ be derived as it is on an
irreversible path to being freed. Without being able to derive the
context, the code mistakenly assumes that it has already been freed
and proceeds to free up the underlying CXL context resources. From
this point on, any usage of [the now stale] CXL context resources
will result in undefined behavior. This is root cause of the Oops
mentioned as the second known issue as the mapping passed to the
unmap_mapping_range() service is owned by the CXL context.

To fix this problem, acquisition of the table-list mutex within
get_context() is simply changed to use the uninterruptible version
of the mutex locking service. This is safe as the timing windows for
holding this mutex are short and also protected against blocking.

Matthew R. Ochs aacb4ff69e cxlflash: Fix to avoid potential deadlock on EEH
Ioctl threads that use scsi_execute() can run for an excessive amount
of time due to the fact that they have lengthy timeouts and retry logic
built in. Under normal operation this is not an issue. However, once EEH
enters the picture, a long execution time coupled with the possibility
that a timeout can trigger entry to the driver via registered reset
callbacks becomes a liability.

In particular, a deadlock can occur when an EEH event is encountered
while in running in scsi_execute(). As part of the recovery, the EEH
handler drains all currently running ioctls, waiting until they have
completed before proceeding with a reset. As the scsi_execute()'s are
situated on the ioctl path, the EEH handler will wait until they (and
the remainder of the ioctl handler they're associated with) have
completed. Normally this would not be much of an issue aside from the
longer recovery period. Unfortunately, the scsi_execute() triggers a
reset when it times out. The reset handler will see that the device is
already being reset and wait until that reset completed. This creates
a condition where the EEH handler becomes stuck, infinitely waiting for
the ioctl thread to complete.

To avoid this behavior, temporarily unmark the scsi_execute() threads
as an ioctl thread by releasing the ioctl read semaphore. This allows
the EEH handler to proceed with a recovery while the thread is still
running. Once the scsi_execute() returns, the ioctl read semaphore is
reacquired and the adapter state is rechecked in case it changed while
inside of scsi_execute(). The state check will wait if the adapter is
still being recovered or returns a failure if the recovery failed. In
the event that the adapter reset failed, the failure is simply returned
as the ioctl would be unable to continue.

Matthew R. Ochs 17ead26f23 cxlflash: Fix to avoid corrupting adapter fops
The fops owned by the adapter can be corrupted in certain scenarios,
opening a window where certain fops are temporarily NULLed before being
reset to their proper value. This can potentially lead software to make
incorrect decisions, leaving the user with the inability to function as
intended.

An example of this behavior can be observed when there are a number of
users with a high rate of turn around (attach to LUN, perform an I/O,
detach from LUN, repeat). Every so often a user is given a valid
context and adapter file descriptor, but the file associated with the
descriptor lacks the correct read permission bit (FMODE_CAN_READ) and
thus the read system call bails before calling the valid read fop.

Background:

The fops is stored in the adapter structure to provide the ability to
lookup the adapter structure from within the fop handler. CXL services
use the file's private_data and at present, the CXL context does not
have a private section. In an effort to limit areas of the cxlflash
driver with code specific the superpipe function, a design choice was
made to keep the details of the fops situated away from the legacy
portions of the driver. This drove the behavior that the adapter fops
is set at the beginning of the disk attach ioctl handler when there
are no users present.

The corruption that this fix remedies is due to the fact that the fops
is initially defaulted to values found within a static structure. When
the fops is handed down to the CXL services later in the attach path,
certain services are patched. The fops structure remains correct until
the user count drops to 0 and the fops is reset, triggering the process
to repeat again. The user counts are tightly coupled with the creation
and deletion of the user context. If multiple users perform a disk
attach at the same time, when the user count is currently 0, some users
can be in the middle of obtaining a file descriptor and have not yet
reached the context creation code that [in addition to creating the
context] increments the user count. Subsequent users coming in to
perform the attach see that the user count is still 0, and reinitialize
the fops, temporarily removing the patched fops. The users that are in
the middle obtaining their file descriptor may then receive an invalid
descriptor.

The fix simply removes the user count altogether and moves the fops
initialization to probe time such that it is only performed one time
for the life of the adapter. In the future, if the CXL services adopt
a private member for their context, that could be used to store the
adapter structure reference and cxlflash could revert to a model that
does not require an embedded fops.

Matthew R. Ochs 8e78262328 cxlflash: Fix to prevent EEH recovery failure
The process_sense() routine can perform a read capacity which
can take some time to complete. If an EEH occurs while waiting
on the read capacity, the EEH handler will wait to obtain the
context's mutex in order to put the context in an error state.
The EEH handler will sit and wait until the context is free,
but this wait can potentially last forever (deadlock) if the
scsi_execute() that performs the read capacity experiences a
timeout and calls into the reset callback. When that occurs,
the reset callback sees that the device is already being reset
and waits for the reset to complete. This leaves two threads
waiting on the other.

To address this issue, make the context unavailable to new,
non-system owned threads and release the context while calling
into process_sense(). After returning from process_sense() the
context mutex is reacquired and the context is made available
again. The context can be safely moved to the error state if
needed during the unavailable window as no other threads will
hold its reference.

Matthew R. Ochs 0a27ae5147 cxlflash: Fix to avoid CXL services during EEH
During an EEH freeze event, certain CXL services should not be
called until after the hardware reset has taken place. Doing so
can result in unnecessary failures and possibly cause other ill
effects by triggering hardware accesses. This translates to a
requirement to quiesce all threads that may potentially use CXL
runtime service during this window. In particular, multiple ioctls
make use of the CXL services when acting on contexts on behalf of
the user. Thus, it is essential to 'drain' running ioctls _before_
proceeding with handling the EEH freeze event.

Create the ability to drain ioctls by wrapping the ioctl handler
call in a read semaphore and then implementing a small routine that
obtains the write semaphore, effectively creating a wait point for
all currently executing ioctls.
