    dm: Allow dm_call_pr to be used for path searches · 8dd87f3c
    Mike Christie 提交于
    The specs state that if you send a reserve down a path that is already
    the holder success must be returned and if it goes down a path that
    is not the holder reservation conflict must be returned. Windows
    failover clustering will send a second reservation and expects that a
    device returns success. The problem for multipathing is that for an
    All Registrants reservation, we can send the reserve down any path but
    for all other reservation types there is one path that is the holder.
    
    To handle this we could add PR state to dm but that can get nasty.
    Look at target_core_pr.c for an example of the type of things we'd
    have to track. It will also get more complicated because other
    initiators can change the state so we will have to add in async
    event/sense handling.
    
    This commit, and the 3 commits that follow, tries to keep dm simple
    and keep just doing passthrough. This commit modifies dm_call_pr to be
    able to find the first usable path that can execute our pr_op then
    return. When dm_pr_reserve is converted to dm_call_pr in the next
    commit for the normal case we will use the same path for every
    reserve.
