firewire: fw-sbp2: (try to) avoid I/O errors during reconnect 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.

dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error() Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

firewire: fw-sbp2: try to increase reconnect_hold (speed up reconnection) 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.

firewire: fw-sbp2: (try to) avoid I/O errors during reconnect 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.

dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error() Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

[SCSI] Let scsi_cmnd->cmnd use request->cmd buffer - struct scsi_cmnd had a 16 bytes command buffer of its own. This is an unnecessary duplication and copy of request's cmd. It is probably left overs from the time that scsi_cmnd could function without a request attached. So clean that up. - Once above is done, few places, apart from scsi-ml, needed adjustments due to changing the data type of scsi_cmnd->cmnd. - Lots of drivers still use MAX_COMMAND_SIZE. So I have left that #define but equate it to BLK_MAX_CDB. The way I see it and is reflected in the patch below is. MAX_COMMAND_SIZE - means: The longest fixed-length (*) SCSI CDB as per the SCSI standard and is not related to the implementation. BLK_MAX_CDB. - The allocated space at the request level - I have audit all ISA drivers and made sure none use ->cmnd in a DMA Operation. Same audit was done by Andi Kleen. (*)fixed-length here means commands that their size can be determined by their opcode and the CDB does not carry a length specifier, (unlike the VARIABLE_LENGTH_CMD(0x7f) command). This is actually not exactly true and the SCSI standard also defines extended commands and vendor specific commands that can be bigger than 16 bytes. The kernel will support these using the same infrastructure used for VARLEN CDB's. So in effect MAX_COMMAND_SIZE means the maximum size command scsi-ml supports without specifying a cmd_len by ULD's Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh <bharrosh@panasas.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
