[SCSI] scsi_transport_sas: don't scan a non-existent end device · 7676f83a

James Bottomley authored Apr 14, 2006

Any end device that can't support any of the scanning protocols
shouldn't be scanned, so set its id to -1 to prevent
scsi_scan_target() being called for it.

[SCSI] mptfusion - fix panic in mptsas_slave_configure · 3c0c25b9

Moore, Eric authored Apr 13, 2006

Driver panic when RAID logical volume was present when driver
loaded, or when a RAID logical volume was created on the fly.

This issue was created in due to recent scsi_transport_sas change,
when sas_read_port_mode_page was added into the mptsas drivers
slave_config entry point.

This new API expects that all sdev's to be assocated to an rphy, however
that is not the case for logical volumes, as they are created using
scsi_add_device, instead of sas_rphy_add().

[SCSI] SCSI: fix scsi_kill_request() busy count handling · e36e0c80

Tejun Heo authored Apr 11, 2006

scsi_kill_request() completes requests via normal SCSI completion path
which decrements busy counts; however, requests which get passed to
scsi_kill_request() aren't holding busy counts and scsi_kill_request()
don't increment them before invoking completion path resulting in
incorrect busy counts.  Bump up busy counts before invoking completion
path.

[SCSI] FC transport: fixes for workq deadlocks · aedf3497

James Smart authored Apr 10, 2006

As previously reported via Michael Reed, the FC transport took a hit
in 2.6.15 (perhaps a little earlier) when we solved a recursion error.
There are 2 deadlocks occurring:
- With scan and the delete items sharing the same workq, flushing the
  workq for the delete code was getting it stalled behind a very long
  running scan code path.
- There's a deadlock where scsi_remove_target() has to sit behind
  scsi_scan_target() due to contention over the scan_lock().

This patch resolves the 1st deadlock and significantly reduces the
odds of the second. So far, we have only replicated the 2nd deadlock
on a highly-parallel SMP system. More on the 2nd deadlock in a following
email.

This patch reworks the transport to:
- Only use the scsi host workq for scanning
- Use 2 other workq's internally. One for deletions, the other for
  scheduled deletions. Originally, we tried this with a single workq,
  but the occassional flushes of the scheduled queues was hitting the
  second deadlock with a slightly higher frequency. In the future, we'll
  look at the LLDD's and the transport to see if we can get rid of this
  extra overhead.
- When moving to the other workq's we tightened up some object states
  and some lock handling.
- Properly syncs adds/deletes
- minor code cleanups
  - directly reference fc_host_attrs, rather than through attribute
    macros
  - flush the right workq on delayed work cancel failures.

Large kudos to Michael Reed who has been working this issue for the last
month.

[SCSI] aic79xx: target hotplug fixes · b0d23648

Hannes Reinecke authored Apr 07, 2006

When a target is added aic79xx tries to be overly clever: it changes
the command on the fly to TEST UNIT READY and tries to requeue the
original command. Sadly this breaks SCSI compability and of course
the midlayer is getting a bit confused by it.

So we're just removing that bit of code and let the midlayer deal with
it. It's clever enough by now. And the driver code is getting simpler.

[SCSI] aic79xx bus reset update · f41b5cec

Hannes Reinecke authored Apr 03, 2006

As James B. correctly noted, ahd_reset_channel() in
ahd_linux_bus_reset() should be protected by ahd_lock().  However, the
main reason for not doing so was a deadlock with the interesting
polling mechanism to detect the end a bus reset.

This patch replaces the polling mechanism with a saner signalling via
flags; it also gives us the benefit of detecting any multiple calls to
ahd_reset_channel().

[SCSI] add SCSI_UNKNOWN and LUN transfer limit restrictions · 4d7db04a

James Bottomley authored Mar 31, 2006

Original From: Ingo Flaschberger <if@xip.at>

To support the RA4100 array from Compaq.

This patch now correctly handles SCSI_UNKNOWN types with regard to
BLIST_REPORTLUNS2 (allow it) and cdb[1] LUN inclusion (don't).

It also allows a BLIST_MAX_512 flag to restrict the maximum transfer
length to 512 blocks (apparently this is an RA4100 problem).

[SCSI] sym2: Fix build when spinlock debugging is enabled · d637c454

Matthew Wilcox authored Mar 29, 2006

When spinlock debugging is turned on, a struct completion grows beyond the
size allowed for the scsi_pointer. So move the struct completion back onto
the stack. The additional memory barriers are to keep us from completing
a random piece of kernel stack if the command happens to complete after
the error handling has finished.
