Mike Christie d8196ed218 [SCSI] iscsi class, iscsi_tcp, iser, qla4xxx: add netdevname sysfs attr
iSCSI must support software iscsi (iscsi_tcp, iser), hardware iscsi (qla4xxx),
and partial offload (broadcom). To be able to allow each stack or driver
or port (virtual or physical) to be able to log into the same target portal
we use the initiator tuple [[HWADDRESS | NETDEVNAME], INITIATOR_NAME] and
the target tuple [TARGETNAME, CONN_ADDRESS, CONN_PORT] to id a session.
This patch adds the netdev name, which is used by software iscsi when
it binds a session to a netdevice using the SO_BINDTODEVICE sock opt.
It cannot use HWADDRESS because if someone did vlans then the same netdevice
will have the same mac and the initiator,target id will not be unique.

Mike Christie 4e7aba73f9 [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix fd leak
This patch should fix the file descriptor leak problem. A quick look
through the kernel shows that users of sockfd_lookup use sockfd_put to
release their handle. We were using sock_release which from the comments
and code look like it does not release the get() on the file from the
lookup.

Mike Christie dbdb016d92 [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix handling of data buffer padding
If we got the padding, data and header in different skbs,
we were not handling the padding correctly because we attributed it
to the data's skb. This resulted in the initiator reading from
pad bytes + skb offset instead of the correct offset.

If you could not connect with the open solaris target, this
will fix the lock up problem you were hitting.

Mike Christie 77a23c21aa [SCSI] libiscsi: fix iscsi cmdsn allocation
The cmdsn allocation and pdu transmit code can race, and we can end
up sending a pdu with cmdsn 10 before a pdu with 5. The target will
then fail the connection/session. This patch fixes the problem by
delaying the cmdsn allocation until we are about to send the pdu.

This also removes the xmitmutex. We were using the connection xmitmutex
during error handling to handle races with mtask and ctask cleanup and
completion. For ctasks we now have nice refcounting and for the mtask,
if we hit the case where the mtask timesout and it is floating
around somewhere in the driver, we end up dropping the session.
And to handle session level cleanup, we use the xmit suspend bit
along with scsi_flush_queue and the session lock to make sure
that the xmit thread is not possibly transmitting a task while
we are trying to kill it.

XMSTATE_SOL_HDR could be set when the xmit thread tests it, but there may
not be anything on the r2tqueue yet. Move the XMSTATE_SOL_HDR set
before the addition to the queue to make sure that when we pull something
off it it is valid. This does not add locks around the xmstate test or make
that a atmoic_t because this is a fast path and if it is set when we test it
we can handle it there without the overhead. Later on we check the xmitqueue
for all requests with the session lock so we will not miss it.

Mike Christie 62f383003c [SCSI] iscsi_tcp: fix padding, data digests, and IO at weird offsets
iscsi_tcp calculates padding by using the expected transfer length. This
has the problem where if we have immediate data = no and initial R2T =
yes, and the transfer length ended up needing padding then we send:

1. header
2. padding which should have gone after data
3. data

Besides this bug, we also assume the target will always ask for nice
transfer lengths and the first burst length will always be a nice value.
As far as I can tell form the RFC this is not a requirement. It would be
silly to do this, but if someone did it we will end doing bad things.

Finally the last bug in that bit of code is in our handling of the
recalculation of data digests when we do not send a whole iscsi_buf in
one try. The bug here is that we call crypto_digest_final on a
iscsi_sendpage error, then when we send the rest of the iscsi_buf, we
doiscsi_data_digest_init and this causes the previous data digest to be
lost.

And to make matters worse, some of these bugs are replicated over and
over and over again for immediate data, solicited data and unsolicited
data. So the attached patch made over the iscsi git tree (see
kernel.org/git for details) which I updated today to include the patches
I said I merged, consolidates the sending of data, padding and digests
and calculation of data digests and fixes the above bugs.

Mike Christie 665b44aee3 [SCSI] iscsi: dequeue all buffers from queue
debugged by wrwhitehead@novell.com
patch and analysis by fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp

Only tcp_read_sock and recv_actor (iscsi_tcp_data_recv for us) see
desc.count. It is is used just for permitting tcp_read_sock to read
the portion of data in the socket.

When iscsi_tcp_data_recv sees a partial header, it sets
desc.count. However, it is possible that the next skb (containing the
rest of the header) still does not come. So I'm not sure that this
scheme is completely correct.

Ideally, we should use the exact length of the data in the socket for
desc.count. However, it is not so simple (see SIOCINQ in
tcp_ioctl). So I think that iscsi_tcp_data_recv can just stop playing
with desc.count and tell tcp_read_sock to read the all skbs. As
proposed already, if iscsi_tcp_data_ready sets desc.count to
non-zero, tcp_read_sock does that.

Mike Christie 8d2860b3c3 [SCSI] iscsi: increment expstatsn during login
debugged by Ming and Rohan:

The problem Ming and Rohan debugged was that during a normal session
login, open-iscsi is not incrementing the exp_statsn counter. It was
stuck at zero. From the RFC, it looks like if the login response PDU has
a successful status then we should be incrementing that value. Also from
the RFC, it looks like if when we drop a connection then reconnect, we
should be using the exp_statsn from the old connection in the next
relogin attempt.

Mike Christie 30a6c65236 [SCSI] iscsi: fix up iscsi eh
The current iscsi_tcp eh is not nicely setup for dm-multipath
and performs some extra task management functions when they
are not needed.

The attached patch:

- Fixes the TMF issues. If a session is rebuilt
then we do not send aborts.

- Fixes the problem where if the host reset fired, we would
return SUCCESS even though we had not really done anything
yet. This ends up causing problem with scsi_error.c's TUR.

- If someone has turned on the userspace nop daemon code to try
and detect network problems before the scsi command timeout
we can now drop and clean up the session before the scsi command
timesout and fires the eh speeding up the time it takes for a
command to go from one patch to another. For network problems
we fail the command with DID_BUS_BUSY so if failfast is set
scsi_decide_disposition fails the command up to dm for it to
try on another path.

- And we had to add some basic iscsi session block code. Previously
if we were trying to repair a session we would retrun a MLQUEUE code
in the queuecommand. This worked but it was not the most efficient
or pretty thing to do since it would take a while to relogin
to the target. For iscsi_tcp/open-iscsi a lot of the iscsi error handler
is in userspace the block code is pretty bare. We will be
adding to that for qla4xxx.

For iscsi boot when going from initramfs to the real root we

iscsid needs to be able to rebuild itself and part of that

adds several required iscsi values. If the LLD does not provide
them becuase, login is done in userspace, then the transport

Mike Christie b5c7a12dc2 [SCSI] iscsi: rm kernel iscsi handles usage for session and connection
from hare@suse.de and michaelc@cs.wisc.edu

hw iscsi like qla4xxx does not allocate a host per session and
for userspace it is difficult to restart iscsid using the
"iscsi handles" for the session and connection, so this
patch just has the class or userspace allocate the id for
the session and connection.

Note: this breaks userspace and requires users to upgrade to the newest
open-iscsi tools. Sorry about his but open-iscsi is still too new to
say we have a stable user-kernel api and we were not good nough
designers to know that other hw iscsi drivers and iscsid itself would
need such changes. Actually we sorta did but at the time we did not
have the HW available to us so we could only guess.

Luckily, the only tools hooking into the class are the open-iscsi ones
or other tools like iscsitart hook into the open-iscsi engine from
userspace or prgroams like anaconda call our tools so they are not affected.

Christoph Lameter ac2b898ca6 [PATCH] slab: Remove SLAB_NO_REAP option
SLAB_NO_REAP is documented as an option that will cause this slab not to be
reaped under memory pressure.  However, that is not what happens.  The only
thing that SLAB_NO_REAP controls at the moment is the reclaim of the unused
slab elements that were allocated in batch in cache_reap().  Cache_reap()
is run every few seconds independently of memory pressure.

Could we remove the whole thing?  Its only used by three slabs anyways and
I cannot find a reason for having this option.

There is an additional problem with SLAB_NO_REAP.  If set then the recovery
of objects from alien caches is switched off.  Objects not freed on the
same node where they were initially allocated will only be reused if a
certain amount of objects accumulates from one alien node (not very likely)
or if the cache is explicitly shrunk.  (Strangely __cache_shrink does not
check for SLAB_NO_REAP)

Getting rid of SLAB_NO_REAP fixes the problems with alien cache freeing.

the function is used by HW and SW iscsi llds. This way the lld
does not have to remember if it has to send a handle or pointer

This also has the class verify the session handle that gets passed from

We cannot handle filesystems like XFS becuase of the pages they

The proper solution is to figure out what type of pages
filesystems can use so we do not have to add tests like
this or handle it in the block layer for all network block drivers
but the issue still has not been resolved on fs-devel
so we are sending this patch as a temporary fix.

This is last patch just in case it is Nakd with the explanation
that we need to push the correct fix through fs-devel, mm
or the block layer. The rest of the patchset can live without
the patch, but the driver will not work with filesystems like
XFS.

Mike Christie 7b8631b53b [SCSI] iscsi: seperate iscsi interface from setup functions
This is the second version of the patch to address Christoph's comments.
Instead of doing the lib, I just kept everything in scsi_trnapsort_iscsi.c
like the FC and SPI class. This was becuase the driver model and sysfs
class is tied to the session and connection setup so separating did not
buy very much at this time.

The reason for this patch was becuase HW iscsi LLDs like qla4xxx cannot
use the iscsi class becuase the scsi_host was tied to the interface and
class code. This patch just seperates the session from scsi host so
that LLDs that allocate the host per some resource like pci device
can still use the class.

This is also fixes a couple refcount bugs that can be triggered
when users have a sysfs file open, close the session, then
read or write to the file.

Mike Christie b13941f635 [SCSI] iscsi: nodelay fix
From: tomof@acm.org

I'm not sure about this. I don't think that NODELAY option hurts
performance. However, open-iscsi does not use MSG_MORE properly with
sendpage, so NODELAY option hurts the open-iscsi performance.

I've attached a patch to fix NODELAY and MSG_MORE problems and the
write performance results with disktest.

I use Opteron boxes connected directly, Chelsio NICs, 1500-byte MTU,
64 KB I/O size, and the iSCSI parameters on open-iscsi web site.

With only NODELAY fix, the performance drops, as you said. On the
other hand, NODELAY and MSG_MORE fixes improve the performance
overall.
