      scsi: add support for a blk-mq based I/O path. · d285203c
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      This patch adds support for an alternate I/O path in the scsi midlayer
      which uses the blk-mq infrastructure instead of the legacy request code.
      
      Use of blk-mq is fully transparent to drivers, although for now a host
      template field is provided to opt out of blk-mq usage in case any unforseen
      incompatibilities arise.
      
      In general replacing the legacy request code with blk-mq is a simple and
      mostly mechanical transformation.  The biggest exception is the new code
      that deals with the fact the I/O submissions in blk-mq must happen from
      process context, which slightly complicates the I/O completion handler.
      The second biggest differences is that blk-mq is build around the concept
      of preallocated requests that also include driver specific data, which
      in SCSI context means the scsi_cmnd structure.  This completely avoids
      dynamic memory allocations for the fast path through I/O submission.
      
      Due the preallocated requests the MQ code path exclusively uses the
      host-wide shared tag allocator instead of a per-LUN one.  This only
      affects drivers actually using the block layer provided tag allocator
      instead of their own.  Unlike the old path blk-mq always provides a tag,
      although drivers don't have to use it.
      
      For now the blk-mq path is disable by defauly and must be enabled using
      the "use_blk_mq" module parameter.  Once the remaining work in the block
      layer to make blk-mq more suitable for slow devices is complete I hope
      to make it the default and eventually even remove the old code path.
      
      Based on the earlier scsi-mq prototype by Nicholas Bellinger.
      
      Thanks to Bart Van Assche and Robert Elliot for testing, benchmarking and
      various sugestions and code contributions.

      [SCSI] Set the minimum valid value of 'eh_deadline' as 0 · bb3b621a
      Ren Mingxin 提交于
      The former minimum valid value of 'eh_deadline' is 1s, which means
      the earliest occasion to shorten EH is 1 second later since a
      command is failed or timed out. But if we want to skip EH steps
      ASAP, we have to wait until the first EH step is finished. If the
      duration of the first EH step is long, this waiting time is
      excruciating. So, it is necessary to accept 0 as the minimum valid
      value for 'eh_deadline'.
      
      According to my test, with Hannes' patchset 'New EH command timeout
      handler' as well, the minimum IO time is improved from 73s
      (eh_deadline = 1) to 43s(eh_deadline = 0) when commands are timed
      out by disabling RSCN and target port.

      [SCSI] improved eh timeout handler · e494f6a7
      Hannes Reinecke 提交于
      When a command runs into a timeout we need to send an 'ABORT TASK'
      TMF. This is typically done by the 'eh_abort_handler' LLDD callback.
      
      Conceptually, however, this function is a normal SCSI command, so
      there is no need to enter the error handler.
      
      This patch implements a new scsi_abort_command() function which
      invokes an asynchronous function scsi_eh_abort_handler() to
      abort the commands via the usual 'eh_abort_handler'.
      
      If abort succeeds the command is either retried or terminated,
      depending on the number of allowed retries. However, 'eh_eflags'
      records the abort, so if the retry would fail again the
      command is pushed onto the error handler without trying to
      abort it (again); it'll be cleared up from SCSI EH.

      [SCSI] Disable WRITE SAME for RAID and virtual host adapter drivers · 54b2b50c
      Martin K. Petersen 提交于
      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.

      [SCSI] Add 'eh_deadline' to limit SCSI EH runtime · b4562022
      Hannes Reinecke 提交于
      This patchs adds an 'eh_deadline' sysfs attribute to the scsi
      host which limits the overall runtime of the SCSI EH.
      The 'eh_deadline' value is stored in the now obsolete field

      When a command is failed the start time of the EH is stored
      in 'last_reset'. If the overall runtime of the SCSI EH is longer
      than last_reset + eh_deadline, the EH is short-circuited and
      falls through to issue a host reset only.

      [SCSI] implement runtime Power Management · bc4f2401
      Alan Stern 提交于
      This patch (as1398b) adds runtime PM support to the SCSI layer.  Only
      the machanism is provided; use of it is up to the various high-level
      drivers, and the patch doesn't change any of them.  Except for sg --
      the patch expicitly prevents a device from being runtime-suspended
      while its sg device file is open.
      
      The implementation is simplistic.  In general, hosts and targets are
      automatically suspended when all their children are asleep, but for
      them the runtime-suspend code doesn't actually do anything.  (A host's
      runtime PM status is propagated up the device tree, though, so a
      runtime-PM-aware lower-level driver could power down the host adapter
      hardware at the appropriate times.)  There are comments indicating
      where a transport class might be notified or some other hooks added.
      
      LUNs are runtime-suspended by calling the drivers' existing suspend
      handlers (and likewise for runtime-resume).  Somewhat arbitrarily, the
      implementation delays for 100 ms before suspending an eligible LUN.
      This is because there typically are occasions during bootup when the
      same device file is opened and closed several times in quick
      succession.
      
      The way this all works is that the SCSI core increments a device's
      PM-usage count when it is registered.  If a high-level driver does
      nothing then the device will not be eligible for runtime-suspend
      because of the elevated usage count.  If a high-level driver wants to
      use runtime PM then it can call scsi_autopm_put_device() in its probe
      routine to decrement the usage count and scsi_autopm_get_device() in
      its remove routine to restore the original count.
      
      Hosts, targets, and LUNs are not suspended while they are being probed
      or removed, or while the error handler is running.  In fact, a fairly
      large part of the patch consists of code to make sure that things
      aren't suspended at such times.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      [SCSI] scsi_host_lookup: error returns and NULL pointers · 315cb0ad

      This patch cleans up the behavior of scsi_host_lookup().
      
      The original implementation attempted to use the dual role of
      either returning a pointer value, or a negative error code.
      User's needed to use IS_ERR() to check the result. Additionally,
      the IS_ERR() macro never checks for when a NULL pointer was
      returned, so a NULL pointer actually passes with a success case.
      Note: scsi_host_get(), used by scsi_host_lookup(), can return
      a NULL pointer.

          scsi: use class iteration api
      
      Isn't a correct replacement for the original hand rolled host
      lookup. The problem is that class_find_child would get a reference to
      the host's class device which is never released.  Since the host class
      device holds a reference to the host gendev, the host can never be
      freed.
      
      In 2.6.26 we started using class_find_device, and this function also
      gets a reference to the device, so we end up with an extra ref
      and the host will not get released.
      
      This patch adds a put_device to balance the class_find_device() get. I
      kept the scsi_host_get in scsi_host_lookup, because the target layer
      is using scsi_host_lookup and it looks like it needs the SHOST_DEL
      check.

      We're getting a WARN_ON from SLUB indicating that we're trying to free

      drivers which change this in their setup after the command/sense cache
      is allocated.
      
      The fix is to move the allocation of this cache into scsi_add_host()
      so things like gdth have an opportunity to modify it between alloc and
      add (but *not* after).
      
      The true fix would be to move unchecked_isa_dma into the template and
      out of the host, so it because a truly read only variable.
