    [SCSI] add new SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE state · 1b8d2620
    Mike Christie 提交于
    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.
