    xen-scsiback: Add Xen PV SCSI backend driver · d9d660f6
    Juergen Gross 提交于
    Introduces the Xen pvSCSI backend. With pvSCSI it is possible for a
    Xen domU to issue SCSI commands to a SCSI LUN assigned to that
    domU. The SCSI commands are passed to the pvSCSI backend in a driver
    domain (usually Dom0) which is owner of the physical device. This
    allows e.g. to use SCSI tape drives in a Xen domU.
    
    The code is taken from the pvSCSI implementation in Xen done by
    Fujitsu based on Linux kernel 2.6.18.
    
    Changes from the original version are:
    - port to upstream kernel
    - put all code in just one source file
    - adapt to Linux style guide
    - use target core infrastructure instead doing pure pass-through
    - enable module unloading
    - support SG-list in grant page(s)
    - support task abort
    - remove redundant struct backend
    - allocate resources dynamically
    - correct minor error in scsiback_fast_flush_area
    - free allocated resources in case of error during I/O preparation
    - remove CDB emulation, now handled by target core infrastructure
