Dan Williams 43a8d39d01 [SCSI] fix async probe regression
Commit a7a20d1 "[SCSI] sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain"
moved sd probe work out of reach of wait_for_device_probe().  Allow it
to be synced via scsi_complete_async_scans().

Huajun Li 267a6ad4ae [SCSI] scsi_scan: Fix 'Poison overwritten' warning caused by using freed 'shost'
In do_scan_async(), calling scsi_autopm_put_host(shost) may reference
freed shost, and cause Posison overwitten warning.
Yes, this case can happen, for example, an USB is disconnected just
when do_scan_async() thread starts to run, then scsi_host_put() called
in scsi_finish_async_scan() will lead to shost be freed(because the
refcount of shost->shost_gendev decreases to 1 after USB disconnects),
at this point, if references shost again, system will show following
warning msg.

To make scsi_autopm_put_host(shost) always reference a valid shost,
put it just before scsi_host_put() in function
scsi_finish_async_scan().

Alan Stern 09b6b51b0b SCSI & usb-storage: add flags for VPD pages and REPORT LUNS
This patch (as1507) adds a skip_vpd_pages flag to struct scsi_device
and a no_report_luns flag to struct scsi_target.  The first is used to
control whether sd will look at VPD pages for information on block
provisioning, limits, and characteristics.  The second prevents
scsi_report_lun_scan() from issuing a REPORT LUNS command.

The patch also modifies usb-storage to set the new flag bits for all
USB devices and targets, and to stop adjusting the scsi_level value.

Historically we have seen that USB mass-storage devices often don't
support VPD pages or REPORT LUNS properly.  Until now we have avoided
these things by setting the scsi_level to SCSI_2 for all USB devices.
But this has the side effect of storing the LUN bits into the second
byte of each CDB, and now we have a report of a device which doesn't
like that.  The best solution is to stop abusing scsi_level and
instead have separate flags for VPD pages and REPORT LUNS.

Tejun Heo 09ac46c429 block: misc updates to blk_get_queue()
* blk_get_queue() is peculiar in that it returns 0 on success and 1 on
  failure instead of 0 / -errno or boolean.  Update it such that it
  returns %true on success and %false on failure.

* Make sure the caller checks for the return value.

* Separate out __blk_get_queue() which doesn't check whether @q is
  dead and put it in blk.h.  This will be used later.

This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.

Anton Blanchard f7c9c6bb14 [SCSI] Fix block queue and elevator memory leak in scsi_alloc_sdev
When looking at memory consumption issues I noticed quite a
lot of memory in the kmalloc-2048 bucket:

  OBJS ACTIVE  USE OBJ SIZE  SLABS OBJ/SLAB CACHE SIZE NAME
  6561   6471  98%    2.30K    243       27     15552K kmalloc-2048

Over 15MB. slub debug shows that cfq is responsible for almost
all of it:

# sort -nr /sys/kernel/slab/kmalloc-2048/alloc_calls
6402 .cfq_init_queue+0xec/0x460 age=43423/43564/43655 pid=1 cpus=4,11,13

In scsi_alloc_sdev we do scsi_alloc_queue but if slave_alloc
fails we don't free it with scsi_free_queue.

The patch below fixes the issue:

  OBJS ACTIVE  USE OBJ SIZE  SLABS OBJ/SLAB CACHE SIZE NAME
   135     72  53%    2.30K      5       27       320K kmalloc-2048

James Bottomley e73e079bf1 [SCSI] Fix oops caused by queue refcounting failure
In certain circumstances, we can get an oops from a torn down device.
Most notably this is from CD roms trying to call scsi_ioctl.  The root
cause of the problem is the fact that after scsi_remove_device() has
been called, the queue is fully torn down.  This is actually wrong
since the queue can be used until the sdev release function is called.
Therefore, we add an extra reference to the queue which is released in
sdev->release, so the queue always exists.

Jens Axboe 9937a5e2f3 scsi: remove performance regression due to async queue run
Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter
protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from
kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down,
but should be safe.

Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for
some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details
of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests.

Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device
ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this:

scsi_request_fn()
        scsi_dispatch_cmd()
                scsi_queue_insert()
                        __scsi_queue_insert()
                                scsi_run_queue()
					scsi_request_fn()
						...

potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special
case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload
the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single
workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially
kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen.

This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion,
since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out
of line.

Alan Stern bc4f24014d [SCSI] implement runtime Power Management
This patch (as1398b) adds runtime PM support to the SCSI layer.  Only
the machanism is provided; use of it is up to the various high-level
drivers, and the patch doesn't change any of them.  Except for sg --
the patch expicitly prevents a device from being runtime-suspended
while its sg device file is open.

The implementation is simplistic.  In general, hosts and targets are
automatically suspended when all their children are asleep, but for
them the runtime-suspend code doesn't actually do anything.  (A host's
runtime PM status is propagated up the device tree, though, so a
runtime-PM-aware lower-level driver could power down the host adapter
hardware at the appropriate times.)  There are comments indicating
where a transport class might be notified or some other hooks added.

LUNs are runtime-suspended by calling the drivers' existing suspend
handlers (and likewise for runtime-resume).  Somewhat arbitrarily, the
implementation delays for 100 ms before suspending an eligible LUN.
This is because there typically are occasions during bootup when the
same device file is opened and closed several times in quick
succession.

The way this all works is that the SCSI core increments a device's
PM-usage count when it is registered.  If a high-level driver does
nothing then the device will not be eligible for runtime-suspend
because of the elevated usage count.  If a high-level driver wants to
use runtime PM then it can call scsi_autopm_put_device() in its probe
routine to decrement the usage count and scsi_autopm_get_device() in
its remove routine to restore the original count.

Hosts, targets, and LUNs are not suspended while they are being probed
or removed, or while the error handler is running.  In fact, a fairly
large part of the patch consists of code to make sure that things
aren't suspended at such times.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Vasu Dev 4a84067dbf [SCSI] add queue_depth ramp up code
Current FC HBA queue_depth ramp up code depends on last queue
full time. The sdev already  has last_queue_full_time field to
track last queue full time but stored value is truncated by
last four bits.

So this patch updates last_queue_full_time without truncating
last 4 bits to store full value and then updates its only
current usages in scsi_track_queue_full to ignore last four bits
to keep current usages same while also use this field
in added ramp up code.

Adds scsi_handle_queue_ramp_up to ramp up queue_depth on
successful completion of IO. The scsi_handle_queue_ramp_up will
do ramp up on all luns of a target, just same as ramp down done
on all luns on a target.

The ramp up is skipped in case the change_queue_depth is not
supported by LLD or already reached to added max_queue_depth.

Updates added max_queue_depth on every new update to default
queue_depth value.

The ramp up is also skipped if lapsed time since either last
queue ramp up or down is less than LLD specified
queue_ramp_up_period.

Adds queue_ramp_up_period to sysfs but only if change_queue_depth
is supported since ramp up and queue_ramp_up_period is needed only
in case change_queue_depth is supported first.

Initializes queue_ramp_up_period to 120HZ jiffies as initial
default value, it is same as used in existing lpfc and qla2xxx.

-v2
 Combined all ramp code into this single patch.

-v3
 Moves max_queue_depth initialization after slave_configure is
called from after slave_alloc calling done. Also adjusted
max_queue_depth check to skip ramp up if current queue_depth
is >= max_queue_depth.

-v4
 Changes sdev->queue_ramp_up_period unit to ms when using sysfs i/f
to store or show its value.

James Bottomley 860dc73608 [SCSI] fix async scan add/remove race resulting in an oops
Async scanning introduced a very wide window where the SCSI device is
up and running but has not yet been added to sysfs.  We delay the
adding until all scans have completed to retain the same ordering as
sync scanning.

This delay in visibility causes an oops if a device is removed before
we make it visible because the SCSI removal routines have an inbuilt
assumption that if a device is in SDEV_RUNNING state, it must be
visible (which is not necessarily true in the async scanning case).

Fix this by introducing an additional is_visible flag which we can use
to condition the tear down so we do the right thing for running but
not yet made visible.

James Bottomley 37e6ba0072 [SCSI] fix memory leak in initialization
The root cause of the problem is the fact that dev_set_name() now
allocates storage instead of using the original array within the kobj.
That means that the SCSI assumption that if you haven't made the
containing object or any sub objects visible, you can just destroy it
(and its component devices) lock stock and barrel becomes false.

Fix this by doing the get of sdev_dev at parent time and thus do an
extra put of it in scsi_destroy_sdev() (and all other destruction
without add paths).

Arjan van de Ven d4d5291c8c driver synchronization: make scsi_wait_scan more advanced
There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage
device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the
scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this
module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers
were loaded before the module load are present.

Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async
stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only
waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take
into account at all that probing might not have begun yet.
(Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him)

This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which
had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for
the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did
it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml):
The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it
will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

This forces a lot of target removes and then rescans. Since the

invoking error recovery, etc.  We end up getting some nasty crashing
in scsi_scan.c due to references to old sdevs that are failing
but had some lingering references that kept them around.

Fix by setting device state to SDEV_DEL if the LLD's slave_alloc

Mike Christie f0c0a376d0 [SCSI] Add helper code so transport classes/driver can control queueing (v3)
SCSI-ml manages the queueing limits for the device and host, but
does not do so at the target level. However something something similar
can come in userful when a driver is transitioning a transport object to
the the blocked state, becuase at that time we do not want to queue
io and we do not want the queuecommand to be called again.

The patch adds code similar to the exisiting SCSI_ML_*BUSY handlers.
You can now return SCSI_MLQUEUE_TARGET_BUSY when we hit
a transport level queueing issue like the hw cannot allocate some
resource at the iscsi session/connection level, or the target has temporarily
closed or shrunk the queueing window, or if we are transitioning
to the blocked state.

bnx2i, when they rework their firmware according to netdev
developers requests, will also need to be able to limit queueing at this
level. bnx2i will hook into libiscsi, but will allocate a scsi host per
netdevice/hba, so unlike pure software iscsi/iser which is allocating
a host per session, it cannot set the scsi_host->can_queue and return
SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY to reflect queueing limits on the transport.

The iscsi class/driver can also set a scsi_target->can_queue value which
reflects the max commands the driver/class can support. For iscsi this
reflects the number of commands we can support for each session due to
session/connection hw limits, driver limits, and to also reflect the
session/targets's queueing window.

Changes:
v1 - initial patch.
v2 - Fix scsi_run_queue handling of multiple blocked targets.
Previously we would break from the main loop if a device was added back on
the starved list. We now run over the list and check if any target is
blocked.
v3 - Rediff for scsi-misc.

James Bottomley 643eb2d932 [SCSI] rework scsi_target allocation
The current target allocation code registeres each possible target
with sysfs; it will be deleted again if no useable LUN on this target
was found. This results in a string of 'target add/target remove' uevents.

Based on a patch by Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> this patch reworks
the target allocation code so that only uevents for existing targets
are sent. The sysfs registration is split off from the existing
scsi_target_alloc() into a in a new scsi_add_target() function, which
should be called whenever an existing target is found. Only then a
uevent is sent, so we'll be generating events for existing targets
only.

James Bottomley d52b3815a5 [SCSI] add missing transport configure points for target and host
While trying to convert the SPI transport class to attribute groups, I
discovered that we don't actually have any transport configure points
for either the target or the host.  This patch adds these missing
transport class triggers.  The host one is simply done after the add,
the target one tries to be more clever and add it after devices may have
been placed on the target (so the device configure will have set up the
target parameters).

Tony Battersby 25d7c363f2 [SCSI] move single_lun flag from scsi_device to scsi_target
Some SCSI tape medium changers that need the BLIST_SINGLELUN flag have
the medium changer at one LUN and the tape drive at a different LUN.
The inquiry string of the tape drive may be different from that of the
medium changer.  In order for single_lun to be effective, every
scsi_device under a given scsi_target must have it set.  This means that
there needs to be a blacklist entry for BOTH the medium changer AND the
tape drive, which is impractical because some medium changers may be
paired with a variety of different tape drive models.  It makes more
sense to put the single_lun flag in scsi_target instead of scsi_device,
which causes every device at a given target ID to inherit the single_lun
flag from one LUN.  This makes it possible to blacklist just the medium
changer and not the tape drive.

Matthew Wilcox a57b1fccdf [SCSI] scsi_scan: Cope with kthread_run failing
If kthread_run failed, we would fail to scan the host, and leak the
allocated async_scan_data.  Since using a separate thread is just an
optimisation, do the scan synchronously if we fail to spawn a thread.
