[SCSI] target: Add LIO target core v4.0.0-rc6 LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the following feature set: High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD support. Advanced SCSI feature set: * Persistent Reservations (PRs) * Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA) * Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S) * Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2) * Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2) * Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx) Multiprotocol target plugins Storage media independence: * Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs * No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB * Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc. Standards compliance: * Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720) * Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig. [jejb: fix up for new block bdev exclusive interface. Minor fixes from Randy Dunlap and Dan Carpenter.] Signed-off-by: Nicholas A.

target: increase iblock task sizes There is no real limit for task sizes in the iblock driver given that we can chain bios. Increase the maximum size to UINT_MAX, and change the code to submit bios in a smaller batch size to avoid deadlocks when having more bios in flight than the pool supports. Also increase the pool size to always allow multiple tasks to be in flight. I also had to change the task refcounting to include one reference for the submission task, which is a standard practice in this kind of code in Linux (e.g. XFS I/O submission). This was wrong before, but couldn't be hit easily. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@linux-iscsi.org> 2011-12-21 14:20:31 -05:00

target: kill struct se_subsystem_dev Simplify the code a lot by killing the superflous struct se_subsystem_dev. Instead se_device is allocated early on by the backend driver, which allocates it as part of its own per-device structure, borrowing the scheme that is for example used for inode allocation.
