Add a LIO storage engine that presents commands to userspace for execution. This would allow more complex backstores to be implemented out-of-kernel, and also make experimentation a-la FUSE (but at the SCSI level -- "SUSE"?) possible. It uses a mmap()able UIO device per LUN to share a command ring and data area. The commands are raw SCSI CDBs and iovs for in/out data. The command ring is also reused for returning scsi command status and optional sense data. This implementation is based on Shaohua Li's earlier version but heavily modified. Differences include: * Shared memory allocated by kernel, not locked-down user pages * Single ring for command request and response * Offsets instead of embedded pointers * Generic SCSI CDB passthrough instead of per-cmd specialization in ring format. * Uses UIO device instead of anon_file passed in mailbox. * Optional in-kernel handling of some commands. The main reason for these differences is to permit greater resiliency if the user process dies or hangs. Things not yet implemented (on purpose): * Zero copy. The data area is flexible enough to allow page flipping or backend-allocated pages to be used by fabrics, but it's not clear these are performance wins. Can come later. * Out-of-order command completion by userspace. Possible to add by just allowing userspace to change cmd_id in rsp cmd entries, but currently not supported. * No locks between kernel cmd submission and completion routines. Sounds like it's possible, but this can come later. * Sparse allocation of mmaped area. Current code vmallocs the whole thing. If the mapped area was larger and not fully mapped then the driver would have more freedom to change cmd and data area sizes based on demand. Current code open issues: * The use of idrs may be overkill -- we maybe can replace them with a simple counter to generate cmd_ids, and a hash table to get a cmd_id's associated pointer. * Use of a free-running counter for cmd ring instead of explicit modulo math. This would require power-of-2 cmd ring size. (Add kconfig depends NET - Randy) Signed-off-by: NAndy Grover <agrover@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NNicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org>

The Zorro definitions and device IDs are used by bootstraps, hence they should be exported through UAPI. Unfortunately zorro.h was never marked for export when headers_install was introduced, so it was forgotten during the big UAPI disintegration. In addition, the removal of zorro_ids.h had been sneaked into commit 7e7a43c3 ("PCI: don't export device IDs to userspace") before, so it was also forgotten. Split off and export the Zorro definitions used by bootstraps. Signed-off-by: NGeert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org>

由 Ashutosh Dixit 提交于
This patch introduces the host "Virtio over PCIe" interface for Intel MIC. It allows creating user space backends on the host and instantiating virtio devices for them on the Intel MIC card. It uses the existing VRINGH infrastructure in the kernel to access virtio rings from the host. A character device per MIC is exposed with IOCTL, mmap and poll callbacks. This allows the user space backend to: (a) add/remove a virtio device via a device page. (b) map (R/O) virtio rings and device page to user space. (c) poll for availability of data. (d) copy a descriptor or entire descriptor chain to/from the card. (e) modify virtio configuration. (f) handle virtio device reset. The buffers are copied over using CPU copies for this initial patch and host initiated MIC DMA support is planned for future patches. The avail and desc virtio rings are in host memory and the used ring is in card memory to maximize writes across PCIe for performance.

Solution: ========= - Synchronize linux's `include/uapi/linux/in6.h' with glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h'. - Synchronize glibc's `inet/netinet/in.h with linux's `include/uapi/linux/in6.h'. - Allow including the headers in either other. - First header included defines the structures and macros. Details: ======== The kernel promises not to break the UAPI ABI so I don't see why we can't just have the two userspace headers coordinate? If you include the kernel headers first you get those, and if you include the glibc headers first you get those, and the following patch arranges a coordination and synchronization between the two. Let's handle `include/uapi/linux/in6.h' from linux, and `inet/netinet/in.h' from glibc and ensure they compile in any order and preserve the required ABI. These two patches pass the following compile tests: cat >> test1.c <<EOF int main (void) { return 0; } EOF gcc -c test1.c cat >> test2.c <<EOF int main (void) { return 0; } EOF gcc -c test2.c One wrinkle is that the kernel has a different name for one of the members in ipv6_mreq. In the kernel patch we create a macro to cover the uses of the old name, and while that's not entirely clean it's one of the best solutions (aside from an anonymous union which has other issues). I've reviewed the code and it looks to me like the ABI is assured and everything matches on both sides. Notes: - You want netinet/in.h to include bits/in.h as early as possible, but it needs in_addr so define in_addr early. - You want bits/in.h included as early as possible so you can use the linux specific code to define __USE_KERNEL_DEFS based on the _UAPI_* macro definition and use those to cull in.h. - glibc was missing IPPROTO_MH, added here. Compile tested and inspected.

This patch introduces an UAPI header for the SCTP protocol, so that we can facilitate the maintenance and development of user land applications or libraries, in particular in terms of header synchronization. To not break compatibility, some fragments from lksctp-tools' netinet/sctp.h have been carefully included, while taking care that neither kernel nor user land breaks, so both compile fine with this change (for lksctp-tools I tested with the old netinet/sctp.h header and with a newly adapted one that includes the uapi sctp header). lksctp-tools smoke test run through successfully as well in both cases.

Make perf build for x86 once the UAPI disintegration patches for that arch have been applied by adding the appropriate -I flags - in the right order - and then converting some #includes that use ../.. notation to find main kernel headerfiles to use <asm/foo.h> and <linux/foo.h> instead. Note that -Iarch/foo/include/uapi is present _before_ -Iarch/foo/include. This makes sure we get the userspace version of the pt_regs struct. Ideally, we wouldn't have the latter -I flag at all, but unfortunately we want asm/svm.h and asm/vmx.h in builtin-kvm.c and these aren't part of the UAPI - at least not for x86. I wonder if the bits outside of the __KERNEL__ guards *should* be transferred there. I note also that perf seems to do its dependency handling manually by listing all the header files it might want to use in LIB_H in the Makefile. Can this be changed to use -MD? Note that to do make this work, we need to export and UAPI disintegrate linux/hw_breakpoint.h, which I think should've been exported previously so that perf can access the bits. We have to do this in the same patch to maintain bisectability. Signed-off-by: NDavid Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Plumb the UAPI Kbuilds into the user header installation and checking system. As the headers are split the entries will be transferred across from the old Kbuild files to the UAPI Kbuild files. The changes made in this commit are: (1) Exported generated files (of which there are currently four) are moved to uapi/ directories under the appropriate generated/ directory, thus we get: include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_64.h arch/x86/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_x32.h These paths were added to the build as -I flags in a previous patch. (2) scripts/Makefile.headersinst is now given the UAPI path to install from rather than the old path. It then determines the old path from that and includes that Kbuild also if it exists, thus permitting the headers to exist in either directory during the changeover. I also renamed the "install" variable to "installdir" as it refers to a directory not the install program. (3) scripts/headers_install.pl is altered to take a list of source file paths instead of just their names so that the makefile can tell it exactly where to find each file. For the moment, files can be obtained from one of four places for each output directory: .../include/uapi/foo/ .../include/generated/uapi/foo/ .../include/foo/ .../include/generated/foo/ The non-UAPI paths will be dropped later.
