This patch fixes code such as the following with scsi-mq enabled:
rq = blk_get_request(...);
blk_rq_set_block_pc(rq);
rq->cmd = my_cmd_buffer; /* separate CDB buffer */
blk_execute_rq_nowait(...);
Code like this appears in e.g. sg_start_req() in drivers/scsi/sg.c (for
large CDBs only). Without this patch, scsi_mq_prep_fn() will set
rq->cmd back to rq->__cmd, causing the wrong CDB to be sent to the device.

The latest kernel fails to boot qemu arm images when using scsi
for disk access. Boot gets stuck after the following messages.
brd: module loaded
sym53c8xx 0000:00:0c.0: enabling device (0100 -> 0103)
sym0: <895a> rev 0x0 at pci 0000:00:0c.0 irq 93
sym0: No NVRAM, ID 7, Fast-40, LVD, parity checking
sym0: SCSI BUS has been reset.
scsi host0: sym-2.2.3
Bisect points to commit 71e75c97f9 ("scsi: convert device_busy to
atomic_t"). Code inspection shows the following suspicious change
in scsi_request_fn.
out_delay:
- if (sdev->device_busy == 0 && !scsi_device_blocked(sdev))
+ if (atomic_read(&sdev->device_busy) && !scsi_device_blocked(sdev))
blk_delay_queue(q, SCSI_QUEUE_DELAY);
}
'sdev->device_busy == 0' was replaced with 'atomic_read(&sdev->device_busy)',
meaning the logic was reversed. Changing this expression to
'!atomic_read(&sdev->device_busy)' fixes the problem.

This patch adds support for an alternate I/O path in the scsi midlayer
which uses the blk-mq infrastructure instead of the legacy request code.
Use of blk-mq is fully transparent to drivers, although for now a host
template field is provided to opt out of blk-mq usage in case any unforseen
incompatibilities arise.
In general replacing the legacy request code with blk-mq is a simple and
mostly mechanical transformation. The biggest exception is the new code
that deals with the fact the I/O submissions in blk-mq must happen from
process context, which slightly complicates the I/O completion handler.
The second biggest differences is that blk-mq is build around the concept
of preallocated requests that also include driver specific data, which
in SCSI context means the scsi_cmnd structure. This completely avoids
dynamic memory allocations for the fast path through I/O submission.
Due the preallocated requests the MQ code path exclusively uses the
host-wide shared tag allocator instead of a per-LUN one. This only
affects drivers actually using the block layer provided tag allocator
instead of their own. Unlike the old path blk-mq always provides a tag,
although drivers don't have to use it.
For now the blk-mq path is disable by defauly and must be enabled using
the "use_blk_mq" module parameter. Once the remaining work in the block
layer to make blk-mq more suitable for slow devices is complete I hope
to make it the default and eventually even remove the old code path.
Based on the earlier scsi-mq prototype by Nicholas Bellinger.
Thanks to Bart Van Assche and Robert Elliot for testing, benchmarking and
various sugestions and code contributions.

Blk-mq drivers usually preallocate their S/G list as part of the request,
but if we want to support the very large S/G lists currently supported by
the SCSI code that would tie up a lot of memory in the preallocated request
pool. Add support to the scatterlist code so that it can initialize a
S/G list that uses a preallocated first chunks and dynamically allocated
additional chunks. That way the scsi-mq code can preallocate a first
page worth of S/G entries as part of the request, and dynamically extend
the S/G list when needed.

Replace the calls to the various blk_end_request variants with opencode
equivalents. Blk-mq is using a model that gives the driver control
between the bio updates and the actual completion, and making the old
code follow that same model allows us to keep the code more similar for
both paths.

Seems like these counters are missing any sort of synchronization for
updates, as a over 10 year old comment from me noted. Fix this by
using atomic counters, and while we're at it also make sure they are
in the same cacheline as the _busy counters and not needlessly stored
to in every I/O completion.
With the new model the _busy counters can temporarily go negative,
so all the readers are updated to check for > 0 values. Longer
term every successful I/O completion will reset the counters to zero,
so the temporarily negative values will not cause any harm.

Avoid taking the queue_lock to check the per-device queue limit. Instead
we do an atomic_inc_return early on to grab our slot in the queue,
and if necessary decrement it after finishing all checks.
Unlike the host and target busy counters this doesn't allow us to avoid the
queue_lock in the request_fn due to the way the interface works, but it'll
allow us to prepare for using the blk-mq code, which doesn't use the
queue_lock at all, and it at least avoids a queue_lock round trip in
scsi_device_unbusy, which is still important given how busy the queue_lock
is.

During IO with fabric faults, one generally sees several "Unhandled error

sd 4:0:6:2: [sdbw] Unhandled error code
sd 4:0:6:2: [sdbw] Result: hostbyte=DID_NO_CONNECT driverbyte=DRIVER_OK
sd 4:0:6:2: [sdbw] CDB: Read(10): 28 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 08 00
end_request: I/O error, dev sdbw, sector 0
This comes from scsi_io_completion (in scsi_lib.c) while handling error
codes other than DID_RESET or not deferred sense keys i.e. this is
actually handled by the SCSI mid layer. But what gets displayed here is
"Unhandled error code" which is quite misleading as it indicates
something that is not addressed by the mid layer.
The description string is based on the sense key and sometimes on the
additional sense code;
since the ACTION_FAIL case always prints the sense key and the
additional sense code, this patch removes the description string
completely because it does not add useful information.

* Various fixes for IO timeouts.
* API cleanups, and lots of perf tweaks and optimizations.
- Remove 'buffer' from struct request. This is ancient code, from
when requests were always virtually mapped. Kill it, to reclaim
some space in struct request. From me.
- Remove 'magic' from blk_plug. Since we store these on the stack
and since we've never caught any actual bugs with this, lets just
get rid of it. From me.
- Only call part_in_flight() once for IO completion, as includes two

SCSI devices may only be removed by calling scsi_remove_device().
That function must invoke blk_cleanup_queue() before the final put
of sdev->sdev_gendev. Since blk_cleanup_queue() waits for the
block queue to drain and then tears it down, scsi_request_fn cannot
be active anymore after blk_cleanup_queue() has returned and hence
the get_device()/put_device() pair in scsi_request_fn is unnecessary.

Currently, scsi error handling in scsi_io_completion() tries to
unconditionally requeue scsi command when device keeps some error state.
For example, UNIT_ATTENTION causes infinite retry with
action == ACTION_RETRY.
This is because retryable errors are thought to be temporary and the scsi
device will soon recover from those errors. Normally, such retry policy is
appropriate because the device will soon recover from temporary error state.
But there is no guarantee that device is able to recover from error state
immediately. Some hardware error can prevent device from recovering.
This patch adds timeout in scsi_io_completion() to avoid infinite command
retry in scsi_io_completion(). Once scsi command retry time is longer than
this timeout, the command is treated as failure.

Binding ACPI handle to SCSI device has several drawbacks, namely:
1 During ATA device initialization time, ACPI handle will be needed
while SCSI devices are not created yet. So each time ACPI handle is
needed, instead of retrieving the handle by ACPI_HANDLE macro,
a namespace scan is performed to find the handle for the corresponding
ATA device. This is inefficient, and also expose a restriction on
calling path not holding any lock.
2 The binding to SCSI device tree makes code complex, while at the same
time doesn't bring us any benefit. All ACPI handlings are still done
in ATA module, not in SCSI.
Rework the ATA ACPI binding code to bind ACPI handle to ATA transport
devices(ATA port and ATA device). The binding needs to be done only once,
since the ATA transport devices do not go away with hotplug. And due to
this, the flush_work call in hotplug handler for ATA bay is no longer
needed.
Tested on an Intel test platform for binding and runtime power off for
ODD(ZPODD) and hard disk; on an ASUS S400C for binding and normal boot
and S3, where its SATA port node has _SDD and _GTF control methods when
configured as an AHCI controller and its PATA device node has _GTF
control method when configured as an IDE controller. SATA PMP binding
and ATA hotplug is not tested.

USB uses the .find_bridge() callback from struct acpi_bus_type
incorrectly, because as a result of the way it is used by USB every
device in the system that doesn't have a bus type or parent is
passed to usb_acpi_find_device() for inspection.
What USB actually needs, though, is to call usb_acpi_find_device()
for USB ports that don't have a bus type defined, but have
usb_port_device_type as their device type, as well as for USB
devices.
To fix that replace the struct bus_type pointer in struct
acpi_bus_type used for matching devices to specific subsystems
with a .match() callback to be used for this purpose and update
the users of struct acpi_bus_type, including USB, accordingly.
Define the .match() callback routine for USB, usb_acpi_bus_match(),
in such a way that it will cover both USB devices and USB ports
and remove the now redundant .find_bridge() callback pointer from
usb_acpi_bus.

When the ODD is powered off, any action the user did to the ODD that
would generate a media event will trigger an ACPI interrupt, so the
poll for media event is no longer necessary. And the poll will also
cause a runtime status change, which will stop the ODD from staying in
powered off state, so the poll should better be stopped.
But since we don't have access to the gendisk structure in LLDs, here
comes the disk_events_disable_depth for scsi device. This field is a
hint set by LLDs to convey information to upper layer drivers. A value
of 0 means media poll is necessary for the device, while values above 0
means media poll is not needed and should better be skipped. So we can
increase its value when we are to power off the ODD in ATA layer and
decrease its value when the ODD is powered on, effectively silence the
media events poll.

Implement support for WRITE SAME(10) and WRITE SAME(16) in the SCSI disk
driver.
- We set the default maximum to 0xFFFF because there are several
devices out there that only support two-byte block counts even with
WRITE SAME(16). We only enable transfers bigger than 0xFFFF if the
device explicitly reports MAXIMUM WRITE SAME LENGTH in the BLOCK
LIMITS VPD.
- max_write_same_blocks can be overriden per-device basis in sysfs.
- The UNMAP discovery heuristics remain unchanged but the discard
limits are tweaked to match the "real" WRITE SAME commands.
- In the error handling logic we now distinguish between WRITE SAME
with and without UNMAP set.
The discovery process heuristics are:
- If the device reports a SCSI level of SPC-3 or greater we'll issue
READ SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES to find out whether WRITE SAME(16) is
supported. If that's the case we will use it.
- If the device supports the block limits VPD and reports a MAXIMUM
WRITE SAME LENGTH bigger than 0xFFFF we will use WRITE SAME(16).
- Otherwise we will use WRITE SAME(10) unless the target LBA is beyond
0xFFFFFFFF or the block count exceeds 0xFFFF.
- no_write_same is set for ATA, FireWire and USB.

This patch adds a new state SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE. It will
be used by transport classes to offline devices for cases like
when the fast_io_fail/recovery_tmo fires. In those cases we
want all IO to fail, and we have not yet escalated to dev_loss_tmo
behavior where we are removing the devices.
Currently to handle this state, transport classes are setting
the scsi_device's state to running, setting their internal
session/port structs state to something that indicates failed,
and then failing IO from some transport check in the queuecommand.
The reason for the new value is so that users can distinguish
between a device failure that is a result of a transport problem
vs the wide range of errors that devices get offlined for
when a scsi command times out and we offline the devices there.
It also fixes the confusion as to why the transport class is
failing IO, but has set the device state from blocked to running.

block congestion control doesn't have any concept of fairness across

the queue congestion control it can result in an unfair starvation
situation in dm-mp if there are multiple multipath devices on the same
host. For example:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/dm-devel/2012-May/msg00123.html
The fix for this is to report only the sdev busy state (and ignore the
host busy state) in the block congestion control call back.
The host is still congested, but the SCSI subsystem will sort out the
congestion in a fair way because it knows the relation between the
queues and the host.

1/ Rework remote-node-context (RNC) handling for proper management of
the silicon state machine in error handling and hot-plug conditions.
Further details below, suffice to say if the RNC is mismanaged the
silicon state machines may lock up.
2/ Refactor the initialization code to be reused for suspend/resume support
3/ Miscellaneous bug fixes to address discovery issues and hardware
compatibility.
RNC rework details from Jeff Skirvin:
In the controller, devices as they appear on a SAS domain (or
direct-attached SATA devices) are represented by memory structures known
as "Remote Node Contexts" (RNCs). These structures are transferred from
main memory to the controller using a set of register commands; these
commands include setting up the context ("posting"), removing the
context ("invalidating"), and commands to control the scheduling of
commands and connections to that remote device ("suspensions" and
"resumptions"). There is a similar path to control RNC scheduling from
the protocol engine, which interprets the results of command and data
transmission and reception.
In general, the controller chooses among non-suspended RNCs to find one
that has work requiring scheduling the transmission of command and data
frames to a target. Likewise, when a target tries to return data back
to the initiator, the state of the RNC is used by the controller to
determine how to treat the incoming request. As an example, if the RNC
is in the state "TX/RX Suspended", incoming SSP connection requests from
the target will be rejected by the controller hardware. When an RNC is
"TX Suspended", it will not be selected by the controller hardware to
start outgoing command or data operations (with certain priority-based
exceptions).
As mentioned above, there are two sources for management of the RNC
states: commands from driver software, and the result of transmission
and reception conditions of commands and data signaled by the controller
hardware. As an example of the latter, if an outgoing SSP command ends
with a OPEN_REJECT(BAD_DESTINATION) status, the RNC state will
transition to the "TX Suspended" state, and this is signaled by the
controller hardware in the status to the completion of the pending
command as well as signaled in a controller hardware event. Examples of
the former are included in the patch changelogs.
Driver software is required to suspend the RNC in a "TX/RX Suspended"
condition before any outstanding commands can be terminated. Failure to
guarantee this can lead to a complete hardware hang condition. Earlier
versions of the driver software did not guarantee that an RNC was
correctly managed before I/O termination, and so operated in an unsafe
way.
Further, the driver performed unnecessary contortions to preserve the
remote device command state and so was more complicated than it needed
to be. A simplifying driver assumption is that once an I/O has entered
the error handler path without having completed in the target, the
requirement on the driver is that all use of the sas_task must end.
Beyond that, recovery of operation is dependent on libsas and other
components to reset, rediscover and reconfigure the device before normal
operation can restart. In the driver, this simplifying assumption meant
that the RNC management could be reduced to entry into the suspended
state, terminating the targeted I/O request, and resuming the RNC as
needed for device-specific management such as an SSP Abort Task or LUN
Reset Management request.

Merge tag 'isci-for-3.5' into misc
isci update for 3.5
1/ Rework remote-node-context (RNC) handling for proper management of
the silicon state machine in error handling and hot-plug conditions.
Further details below, suffice to say if the RNC is mismanaged the
silicon state machines may lock up.
2/ Refactor the initialization code to be reused for suspend/resume support
3/ Miscellaneous bug fixes to address discovery issues and hardware
compatibility.
RNC rework details from Jeff Skirvin:
In the controller, devices as they appear on a SAS domain (or
direct-attached SATA devices) are represented by memory structures known
as "Remote Node Contexts" (RNCs). These structures are transferred from
main memory to the controller using a set of register commands; these
commands include setting up the context ("posting"), removing the
context ("invalidating"), and commands to control the scheduling of
commands and connections to that remote device ("suspensions" and
"resumptions"). There is a similar path to control RNC scheduling from
the protocol engine, which interprets the results of command and data
transmission and reception.
In general, the controller chooses among non-suspended RNCs to find one
that has work requiring scheduling the transmission of command and data
frames to a target. Likewise, when a target tries to return data back
to the initiator, the state of the RNC is used by the controller to
determine how to treat the incoming request. As an example, if the RNC
is in the state "TX/RX Suspended", incoming SSP connection requests from
the target will be rejected by the controller hardware. When an RNC is
"TX Suspended", it will not be selected by the controller hardware to
start outgoing command or data operations (with certain priority-based
exceptions).
As mentioned above, there are two sources for management of the RNC
states: commands from driver software, and the result of transmission
and reception conditions of commands and data signaled by the controller
hardware. As an example of the latter, if an outgoing SSP command ends
with a OPEN_REJECT(BAD_DESTINATION) status, the RNC state will
transition to the "TX Suspended" state, and this is signaled by the
controller hardware in the status to the completion of the pending
command as well as signaled in a controller hardware event. Examples of
the former are included in the patch changelogs.
Driver software is required to suspend the RNC in a "TX/RX Suspended"
condition before any outstanding commands can be terminated. Failure to
guarantee this can lead to a complete hardware hang condition. Earlier
versions of the driver software did not guarantee that an RNC was
correctly managed before I/O termination, and so operated in an unsafe
way.
Further, the driver performed unnecessary contortions to preserve the
remote device command state and so was more complicated than it needed
to be. A simplifying driver assumption is that once an I/O has entered
the error handler path without having completed in the target, the
requirement on the driver is that all use of the sas_task must end.
Beyond that, recovery of operation is dependent on libsas and other
components to reset, rediscover and reconfigure the device before normal
operation can restart. In the driver, this simplifying assumption meant
that the RNC management could be reduced to entry into the suspended
state, terminating the targeted I/O request, and resuming the RNC as
needed for device-specific management such as an SSP Abort Task or LUN
Reset Management request.
Currently, __scsi_alloc_queue uses SCSI host's parent device
as DMA device to set segment boundary. But the parent device may not
refer to the DMA device. For example, for ATA disk, SCSI host's parent
device now refers to ATA port.
Since commit d139b9b([SCSI] scsi_lib_dma: fix bug with dma maps on
nested scsi objects), a new field Scsi_Host->dma_dev was introduced
to refer to the real DMA device.
Use ->dma_dev in __scsi_alloc_queue to correctly set segment
boundary.

This patch fixes the host byte settings DID_TARGET_FAILURE and
DID_NEXUS_FAILURE. The function __scsi_error_from_host_byte, tries to reset
the host byte to DID_OK. But that does not happen because of the OR operation.
Here is the flow.
scsi_softirq_done-> scsi_decide_disposition -> __scsi_error_from_host_byte
Let's take an example with DID_NEXUS_FAILURE. In scsi_decide_disposition,
result will be set as DID_NEXUS_FAILURE (=0x11). Then in
__scsi_error_from_host_byte, when we do OR with DID_OK. Purpose is to reset
it back to DID_OK. But that does not happen. This patch fixes this issue.

The sdev is deleted from starved list and then try to dispatch from this
device. It's quite possible the sdev can't eventually dispatch a request,
then the sdev will be in starved list tail. This isn't fair.
There are two cases here:
1. unplug path. scsi_request_fn() calls to scsi_target_queue_ready(), then
the dev is removed from starved list, but quite possible host queue isn't
ready, the dev is moved to starved list without dispatching any request.
2. scsi_run_queue path. It deletes the dev from starved list first (both
global and local starved lists), then handles the dev. Then we could have
the same process like case 1.
This patch fixes the first case. Case 2 isn't fixed, because there is a
rare case scsi_run_queue finds host isn't busy but scsi_request_fn finds
host is busy (other CPU is faster to get host queue depth). Not deleting
the dev from starved list in scsi_run_queue will keep scsi_run_queue
looping (though this is very rare case, because host will become busy).
Fortunately fixing case 1 already gives big improvement for starvation in
my test. In a 12 disk JBOD setup, running file creation under EXT4, this
gives 12% more throughput.

When we tear down a device we try to flush all outstanding
commands in scsi_free_queue(). However the check in
scsi_request_fn() is imperfect as it only signals that
we _might start_ aborting commands, not that we've actually
aborted some.
So move the printk inside the scsi_kill_request function,
this will also give us a hint about which commands are aborted.

During cable pull tests on our 16G FC adapter, we are seeing errors,
typically reads to close targets, which fail due to CRC or framing
errors caused by the cable being pull (return status DID_ERROR).
The adapter detects the error on one of the first frames received,
marks the FC exchange as dead (further frames go to bit bucket) and
signals the host of the error. This action is so quick, and coupled
with fast host CPUs, creates a scenario in which the midlayer sees
the failure and retries the io almost immediately. We've seen link
traces with the retry on the link while the original i/o is still
being processed by the target. We're also seeing the time window
for the "link to pull-apart" and the physical interface to report
disconnected to be in the few millisecond range. Which means, we're
encountering scenarios where the full retry count is exhausted
(all with error) by the midlayer before the link disconnect state
is detected.
We looked at 8G FC behavior and occasionally see the same behavior,
but as the link was slower, it rarely could exhaust all retries
before the link reported disconnect.
What is needed is a slight delay between io retries due to DID_ERROR
to cover this error. It is inappropriate to put this delay in the
driver, as the error is indistinguishable from other link-related errors,
nor does the driver track whether the io is a retry or not. This is also
easier than tracking between-io-error bursts that are seen in this
scenario.
The patch below updates the retry path so that it inserts a delay as
if the target was busy. The busy delay is on the order of 6ms. This
delay is sufficient to ensure the link down condition is reported
before the retry count is exhausted (at most 1 retry is seen).

USB surprise removal of sr is triggering an oops in
scsi_dispatch_command(). What seems to be happening is that USB is
hanging on to a queue reference until the last close of the upper
device, so the crash is caused by surprise remove of a mounted CD
followed by attempted unmount.
The problem is that USB doesn't issue its final commands as part of
the SCSI teardown path, but on last close when the block queue is long
gone. The long term fix is probably to make sr do the teardown in the
same way as sd (so remove all the lower bits on ejection, but keep the
upper disk alive until last close of user space). However, the
current oops can be simply fixed by not allowing any commands to be
sent to a dead queue.

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.

[SCSI] put stricter guards on queue dead checks

We are currently using this flag to check whether it's safe
to call into ->request_fn(). If it is set, we punt to kblockd.
But we get a lot of false positives and excessive punts to
kblockd, which hurts performance.
The only real abuser of this infrastructure is SCSI. So export
the async queue run and convert SCSI over to use that. There's
room for improvement in that SCSI need not always use the async
call, but this fixes our performance issue and they can fix that
up in due time.

Fix up trivial conflicts due to whitespace differences in

SBC3r26 contains many changes to the Logical Block Provisioning
interfaces (formerly known as Thin Provisioning ditto). This patch
implements support for both the old and new schemes using the same
heuristic as before (whether the LBP VPD page is present).
The new code also allows the provisioning mode (i.e. choice of command)
to be overridden on a per-device basis via sysfs. Two additional modes
are supported in this version:
- WRITE SAME(10) with the UNMAP bit set
- WRITE SAME(10) without the UNMAP bit set. This allows us to support
devices that predate the TP/LBP enhancements in SBC3 and which work
by way zero-detection
Switching between modes has been consolidated in a helper function that
also updates the block layer topology according to the limitations of
the chosen command.
I experimented with trying WRITE SAME(16) if UNMAP fails, WRITE SAME(10)
if WRITE SAME(16) fails, etc. but found several devices that got
cranky. So for now we'll disable discard if one of the commands
fail. The user still has the option of selecting a different mode in
sysfs.

Instead of just passing 'EIO' for any I/O error we should be
notifying the upper layers with more details about the cause
of this error.
Update the possible I/O errors to:
- ENOLINK: Link failure between host and target
- EIO: Retryable I/O error
- EREMOTEIO: Non-retryable I/O error
- EBADE: I/O error restricted to the I_T_L nexus
'Retryable' in this context means that an I/O error _might_ be
restricted to the I_T_L nexus (vulgo: path), so retrying on another
nexus / path might succeed.
'Non-retryable' in general refers to a target failure, so this
error will always be generated regardless of the I_T_L nexus
it was send on.
I/O errors restricted to the I_T_L nexus might be retried
on another nexus / path, but they should _not_ be queued
if no paths are available.
