Until now the per-command transfer length has exclusively been gated by the max_sectors parameter in the scsi_host template. Given that the size of this parameter has been bumped to an unsigned int we have to be careful not to exceed the target device's capabilities. If the if the device specifies a Maximum Transfer Length in the Block Limits VPD we'll use that value. Otherwise we'll use 0xffffffff for devices that have use_16_for_rw set and 0xffff for the rest. We then combine the chosen disk limit with max_sectors in the host template. The smaller of the two will be used to set the max_hw_sectors queue limit. Signed-off-by: NMartin K.

However, this is a preparation for extending the data type of max_sectors in struct Scsi_Host and scsi_host_template.

There is an error with the medium access timeout feature of the sd driver. The sdkp->medium_access_timed_out value is reset to zero in sd_done() in the wrong place. Currently it is reset to zero only when a command returns sense data. This can result in cases where the medium access check falsely triggers from timed out commands which are hours or days apart. For example, an I/O command times out and is aborted. It then retries and succeeds. But with no sense data generated and returned, the medium_access_timed_out value is not reset. If no sd command returns sense data, then the next command to time out (however far in time from the first failure) will trigger the medium access timeout and put the device offline. The resetting of sdkp->medium_access_timed_out should occur before the check for sense data. To reproduce using scsi_debug, use SCSI_DEBUG_OPT_TIMEOUT or SCSI_DEBUG_OPT_MAC_TIMEOUT to force an I/O command to timeout. Then, remove the opt value so the I/O will succeed on retry. Perform more I/O as desired. Finally, repeat the process to make a new I/O command time out. Without the patch, the device will be marked offline even though many I/O commands have succeeded between the 2 instances of timed out commands.

async_schedule() sd resume work to allow disks and other devices to resume in parallel. This moves the entirety of scsi_device resume to an async context to ensure that scsi_device_resume() remains ordered with respect to the completion of the start/stop command. For the duration of the resume, new command submissions (that do not originate from the scsi-core) will be deferred (BLKPREP_DEFER). It adds a new ASYNC_DOMAIN_EXCLUSIVE(scsi_sd_pm_domain) as a container of these operations. Like scsi_sd_probe_domain it is flushed at sd_remove() time to ensure async ops do not continue past the end-of-life of the sdev. The implementation explicitly refrains from reusing scsi_sd_probe_domain directly for this purpose as it is flushed at the end of dpm_resume(), potentially defeating some of the benefit. Given sdevs are quiesced it is permissible for these resume operations to bleed past the async_synchronize_full() calls made by the driver core. We defer the resolution of which pm callback to call until scsi_dev_type_{suspend|resume} time and guarantee that the callback parameter is never NULL. With this in place the type of resume operation is encoded in the async function identifier. There is a concern that async resume could trigger PSU overload. In the enterprise, storage enclosures enforce staggered spin-up regardless of what the kernel does making async scanning safe by default. Outside of that context a user can disable asynchronous scanning via a kernel command line or CONFIG_SCSI_SCAN_ASYNC. Honor that setting when deciding whether to do resume asynchronously.

Commit 18a4d0a2 (Handle disk devices which can not process medium access commands) was introduced to offline any device which cannot process medium access commands. However, commit 3eef6257 (Reduce error recovery time by reducing use of TURs) reduced the number of TURs by sending it only on the first failing command, which might or might not be a medium access command. So in combination this results in an erratic device offlining during EH; if the command where the TUR was sent upon happens to be a medium access command the device will be set offline, if not everything proceeds as normal. This patch moves the check to the final test, eliminating this problem. Signed-off-by: NHannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NJames Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com>

Some host adapters do not pass commands through to the target disk directly. Instead they provide an emulated target which may or may not accurately report its capabilities. In some cases the physical device characteristics are reported even when the host adapter is processing commands on the device's behalf. This can lead to adapter firmware hangs or excessive I/O errors. This patch disables WRITE SAME for devices connected to host adapters that provide an emulated target. Driver writers can disable WRITE SAME by setting the no_write_same flag in the host adapter template. [jejb: fix up rejections due to eh_deadline patch] Signed-off-by: NMartin K.

Sujit has found a race condition that would make q->nr_pending unbalanced, it occurs as Sujit explained: " sd_probe_async() -> add_disk() -> disk_add_event() -> schedule(disk_events_workfn) sd_revalidate_disk() blk_pm_runtime_init() return; Let's say the disk_events_workfn() calls sd_check_events() which tries to send test_unit_ready() and because of sd_revalidate_disk() trying to send another commands the test_unit_ready() might be re-queued as the tagged command queuing is disabled. So the race condition is - Thread 1 | Thread 2 sd_revalidate_disk() | sd_check_events() ...nr_pending = 0 as q->dev = NULL| scsi_queue_insert() blk_runtime_pm_init() | blk_pm_requeue_request() -> | nr_pending = -1 since | q->dev != NULL " The problem is, the test_unit_ready request doesn't get counted the first time it is queued, so the later decrement of q->nr_pending in blk_pm_requeue_request makes it unbalanced. Fix this by calling blk_pm_runtime_init before add_disk so that all requests initiated there will all be counted.

It is no longer necessary to call scsi_print_command separately for this case as the ->cmnd will no longer be NULL in the normal code path.

SATA drives located behind a SAS controller would incorrectly receive WRITE SAME commands. Tweak the heuristics so that: - If REPORT SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES is provided we will use that to choose between WRITE SAME(16), WRITE SAME(10) and disabled. This also fixes an issue with the old code which would issue WRITE SAME(10) despite the command not being whitelisted in REPORT SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES. - If REPORT SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES is not provided we will fall back to WRITE SAME(10) unless the device has an ATA Information VPD page. The assumption is that a SATL which is smart enough to implement WRITE SAME would also provide REPORT SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES.

When multipathed systems run into an all-paths-down scenario all devices might be dropped, too. This causes 'del_gendisk' to be called, which will unregister the kobj_map->probe() function for all disk device numbers. When the device comes back the default ->probe() function is run which will call __request_module(), which will deadlock. As 'del_gendisk' typically does _not_ trigger a module unload the default ->probe() function is pointless anyway. This patch implements a dummy ->probe() function, which will just return NULL if the disk is not registered. This will avoid the deadlock. Plus it'll speed up device scanning.
