Patch "firewire: fw-sbp2: fix NULL pointer deref. in scsi_remove_device" had the unintended effect that firewire-sbp2 could not be unloaded anymore until all SBP-2 devices were unplugged. We now fix the NULL pointer bug by reacquiring a reference to the sdev instead of holding a reference to the sdev (and to the module) all the time.

While fw-sbp2 takes the necessary time to reconnect to a logical unit after bus reset, the SCSI core keeps sending new commands. They are all immediately completed with host busy status, and application clients or filesystems will break quickly. The SCSI device might even be taken offline: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9734 The only remedy seems to be to block the SCSI device until reconnect. Alas the SCSI core has no useful API to block only one logical unit i.e. the scsi_device, therefore we block the entire Scsi_Host. This currently corresponds to an SBP-2 target. In case of targets with multiple logical units, we need to satisfy the dependencies between logical units by carefully tracking the blocking state of the target and its units. We block all logical units of a target as soon as one of them needs to be blocked, and keep them blocked until all of them are ready to be unblocked. Furthermore, as the history of the old sbp2 driver has shown, the scsi_block_requests() API is a minefield with high potential of deadlocks. We therefore take extra measures to keep logical units unblocked during __scsi_add_device() and during shutdown. This avoids I/O errors during reconnect in many but alas not in all cases. There may still be errors after a re-login had to be performed. Also, some bridges have been seen to cease fetching management ORBs if I/O went on up until a bus reset. In these cases, all management ORBs time out after mgt_orb_timeout. The old sbp2 driver is less vulnerable or maybe not vulnerable to this, for as yet unknown reasons.

fw-sbp2 is unable to reconnect while performing __scsi_add_device because there is only a single workqueue thread context available for both at the moment. This should be fixed eventually. An actual failure of __scsi_add_device is easy to handle, but an incomplete execution of __scsi_add_device with an sdev returned would remain undetected and leave the SBP-2 target unusable. Therefore we use a workaround: If there was a bus reset during __scsi_add_device (i.e. during the SCSI probe), we remove the new sdev immediately, log out, and attempt login and SCSI probe again.

If fw-sbp2 was too late with requesting the reconnect, the target would reject this. In this case, log out before attempting the reconnect. Else several firmwares will deny the re-login because they somehow didn't invalidate the old login. Also, don't retry reconnects in this situation. The retries won't succeed either. These changes improve chances for successful re-login and shorten the period during which the logical unit is inaccessible.

When a reconnect failed but re-login succeeded, __scsi_add_device was called again. In those cases, __scsi_add_device succeeded and returned the pointer to the existing scsi_device. fw-sbp2 then continued orderly, except that it missed to call sbp2_cancel_orbs. SCSI core would call fw-sbp2's eh_abort_handler eventually if there had been an outstanding command. This patch avoids the needless lookups and temporary allocations in SCSI core and I/O stall and timeout until eh_abort_handler hits. Also, __scsi_add_device tolerating calls for devices which already exist is undocumented behavior on which we shouldn't rely.

Like the old sbp2 driver, wait for the write transaction to the AGENT_RESET to complete before proceeding (after login, after reconnect, or in SCSI error handling). There is one occasion where AGENT_RESET is written to from atomic context when getting DEAD status for a command ORB. There we still continue without waiting for the transaction to complete because this is more difficult to fix... Signed-off-by: NStefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

Several different SBP-2 bridges accept a login early while the IDE device is still powering up. They are therefore unable to respond to SCSI INQUIRY immediately, and the SCSI core has to retry the INQUIRY. One of these retries is typically successful, and all is well. But in case of Momobay FX-3A, the INQUIRY retries tend to fail entirely. This can usually be avoided by waiting a little while after login before letting the SCSI core send the INQUIRY. The old sbp2 driver handles this more gracefully for as yet unknown reasons (perhaps because it waits for fetch agent resets to complete, unlike fw-sbp2 which quickly proceeds after requesting the agent reset). Therefore the workaround is not as much necessary for sbp2. Signed-off-by: NStefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de> Signed-off-by: NJarod Wilson <jwilson@redhat.com>

This fixes a "can't recognize device" kind of bug. If the SCSI INQUIRY failed and hence __scsi_add_device failed due to a bus reset, we tried a logout and then waited for the already scheduled login work to happen. So far so good, but the generation used for the logout was outdated, hence the logout never reached the target. The target might therefore deny the subsequent relogin attempt, which would also leave the target inaccessible. Therefore fetch a fresh device->generation for the logout. Use memory barriers to prevent our plan being foiled by compiler or hardware optimizations. Signed-off-by: NStefan Richter <stefanr@s5r6.in-berlin.de>

There was a small window where a login or reconnect job could use an already updated card generation with an outdated node ID. We have to use the fw_device.generation here, not the fw_card.generation, because the generation must never be newer than the node ID when we emit a transaction. This cannot be guaranteed with fw_card.generation. Furthermore, the target's and initiator's node IDs can be obtained from fw_device and fw_card.

Ask the target to grant 4 seconds instead of the standard and minimum of 1 second window after bus reset for reconnection. This accelerates reconnection if there are more than one targets on the bus: If a login and inquiry to one target blocks the fw-sbp2 workqueue for more than 1s after bus reset, we now still can reconnect to the other target. Before that, fw-sbp2's reconnect attempts would be rejected with "error status: 0:9" (function rejected), and fw-sbp2 would finally re-login. All those futile reconnect attemps cost extra time until the target which needs re-login is ready for I/O again. The reconnect timeout field in the login ORB doesn't have to be honored by the target though. I found that we could get up to - allegedly 32768s from an old OXFW911 firmware - 256s from LSI bridges - 4s from OXUF922 and OXFW912 bridges, - 2s from TI bridges, - only the standard 1s from Initio and Prolific bridges and from Apple OpenFirmware in target mode. We just try to get 4 seconds which already covers the case of a few HDDs on the same bus quite nicely. A minor drawback occurs in the following (rare and impractical) border case: - two initiators are there, initiator 1 holds an exclusive login to a target, - initiator 1 goes off the bus, - target refuses login attempts from initiator 2 until reconnect_hold seconds after bus reset. An alternative approach to the issue at hand would be to parallelize fw-sbp2's reconnect and login work.

This patch relaxes the default SCSI DMA alignment from 512 bytes to 4 bytes. I remember from previous discussions that usb and firewire have sector size alignment requirements, so I upped their alignments in the respective slave allocs. The reason for doing this is so that we don't get such a huge amount of copy overhead in bio_copy_user() for udev. (basically all inquiries it issues can now be directly mapped).

Since patch "fw-sbp2: use an own workqueue (fix system responsiveness)" increased parallelism between fw-sbp2 and fw-core, it was possible that fw-sbp2 didn't release the SCSI device when the FireWire device was disconnected. This happened if sbp2_update() ran during sbp2_login(), because a bus reset occurred during sbp2_login(). The sbp2_login() work would [try to] reschedule itself because it failed due to the bus reset, and it would _not_ drop its reference on the target. However, sbp2_update() would schedule sbp2_login() too before sbp2_login() rescheduled itself and hence sbp2_update() would take an additional reference. And then we would have one reference too many. The fix is to _always_ drop the reference when leaving the sbp2_login() work. If the sbp2_login() work reschedules itself, it takes a reference, but only if it wasn't already rescheduled by sbp2_update(). Ditto in the sbp2_reconnect() work. The resulting code is actually simpler than before: We _always_ take a reference when successfully scheduling work. And we _always_ drop a reference when leaving a workqueue job. No exceptions.

Firewire-sbp2 did very uncooperative things in the kernel's shared workqueue: Sleeping until reception of management status from the target for up to 2 seconds, and performing SCSI inquiry and all of the setup of SCSI command set drivers via scsi_add_device. If there were transient or permanent error conditions, this caused long blockage of the kernel's events process, noticeable e.g. by blocked keyboard input. We now allocate a workqueue process exclusive to fw-sbp2. As a side effect, this also increases parallelism of fw-sbp2's login and reconnect work versus fw-core's device discovery and device update work which is performed in the shared workqueue.

On rare occasions, the ability to set one of the workaround flags at runtime may save the day. People who experience I/O errors with firewire-sbp2 while the old sbp2 driver worked for them should try workarounds=1 and report to the devel mailinglist whether that improves things. Firewire-sbp2 defaults to the SCSI stack's maximum transfer size per command, while sbp2 limits them to 128 kBytes. Flag 1 accomplishes just that.
