    Linus Torvalds 提交于
    Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
     "Lots of activity again this round for I/O performance optimizations
      (per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for vhost + iscsi/target), and the
      addition of new fabric independent features to target-core
      (COMPARE_AND_WRITE + EXTENDED_COPY).
    
      The main highlights include:
    
       - Support for iscsi-target login multiplexing across individual
         network portals
       - Generic Per-cpu IDA logic (kent + akpm + clameter)
       - Conversion of vhost to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for
         descriptors, SGLs and userspace page pointer list
       - Conversion of iscsi-target + iser-target to use per-cpu IDA
         pre-allocation for descriptors
       - Add support for generic COMPARE_AND_WRITE (AtomicTestandSet)
         emulation for virtual backend drivers
       - Add support for generic EXTENDED_COPY (CopyOffload) emulation for
         virtual backend drivers.
       - Add support for fast memory registration mode to iser-target (Vu)
    
      The patches to add COMPARE_AND_WRITE and EXTENDED_COPY support are of
      particular significance, which make us the first and only open source
      target to support the full set of VAAI primitives.
    
      Currently Linux clients are lacking upstream support to actually
      utilize these primitives.  However, with server side support now in
      place for folks like MKP + ZAB working on the client, this logic once
      reserved for the highest end of storage arrays, can now be run in VMs
      on their laptops"
