7970634b81 [SCSI] iscsi class: user device_for_each_child instead of duplicating session list
Currently we duplicate the list of sessions, because we were using the
test for if a session was on the host list to indicate if the session
was bound or unbound. We can instead use the target_id and fix up
the class so that drivers like bnx2i do not have to manage the target id
space.

3e5c28ad03 [SCSI] libiscsi: merge iscsi_mgmt_task and iscsi_cmd_task
There is no need to have the mgmt and cmd tasks separate
structs. It used to save a lot of memory when we overprealocated
memory for tasks, but the next patches will set up the
driver so in the future they can use a mempool or some other
common scsi command allocator and common tagging.

0af967f5d4 [SCSI] libiscsi, iscsi_tcp, iser: add session cmds array accessor
Currently to get a ctask from the session cmd array, you have to
know to use the itt modifier. To make this easier on LLDs and
so in the future we can easilly kill the session array and use
the host shared map instead, this patch adds a nice wrapper
to strip the itt into a session->cmds index and return a ctask.

b40977d95f [SCSI] iser: fix handling of scsi cmnds during recovery.
After the stop_conn callback has returned the LLD should not
touch the scsi cmds. iscsi_tcp and libiscsi use the
conn->recv_lock and suspend_rx field to halt recv path
processing, but iser does not have any protection.

This patch modifies iser so that userspace can just
call the ep_disconnect callback, which will halt
all recv IO, before calling the stop_conn callback so
we do not have to worry about the conn->recv_lock and
suspend rx field. iser just needs to stop the send side
from accessing the ib conn.

Fixup to handle when the ep poll fails and ep disconnect
is called from Erez.

so the session creation path needs a shost/host_no argument.

will probably look more like bnx2i where the host's parent is
the hardware (rnic for iser and for bnx2i it is the nic), because
it does not use a socket layer like how iscsi_tcp does.

d26ab06ede [SCSI] zfcp: receiving an unsolicted status can lead to I/O stall
Processing of an unsolicted status request can lead to a locking race
of the request_queue's queue_lock during the recreation of the
used up status read request while still in interrupt context
of the response handler.

Detaching the 'refill' of the long running status read requests from
the handler to a scheduled work is solving this issue.

In addition, each refill-run is trying to re-establish the full amount
of status read requests, which might have failed in earlier runs.

3a0d9e9235 [SCSI] zfcp: sysfs attributes for fabric and channel latencies
The latency information is provided on a SCSI device level (LUN)
which can be found at the following location

 /sys/class/scsi_device/<H:C:T:L>/device/cmd_latency
 /sys/class/scsi_device/<H:C:T:L>/device/read_latency
 /sys/class/scsi_device/<H:C:T:L>/device/write_latency

Each sysfs attribute provides the available data: min, max and sum for
fabric and channel latency and the number of requests processed.

An overrun of the variables is neither detected nor treated.  The file
has to be read twice to make a meaningful statement, because only the
differences of the values between the two reads can be used.  A reset
of the values can be achieved by writing to the attribute.

bab7cfc733 [SCSI] scsi_dh: Add a single threaded workqueue for initializing paths
Before this patch set (SCSI hardware handlers), initialization of a
path was done asynchronously. Doing that requires a workqueue in each
device/hardware handler module and leads to unneccessary complication
in the device handler code, making it difficult to read the code and
follow the state diagram.

Moving that workqueue to this level makes the device handler code simpler.
Hence, the workqueue is moved to dm level.

A new workqueue is added instead of adding it to the existing workqueue
(kmpathd) for the following reasons:
	1. Device activation has to happen faster, stacking them along
	   with the other workqueue might lead to unnecessary delay
	   in the activation of the path.
	2. The effect could be felt the other way too. i.e the current
	   events that are handled by the existing workqueue might get
	   a delayed response.

cfae5c9bb6 [SCSI] scsi_dh: Use SCSI device handler in dm-multipath
This patch converts dm-mpath to use scsi device handlers instead of
dm's hardware handlers.

This patch does not add any new functionality. Old behaviors remain and
userspace tools work as is except that arguments supplied with hardware
handler are ignored.

One behavioral exception is: Activation of a path is synchronous in this
patch, opposed to the older behavior of being asynchronous (changed in
patch 07: scsi_dh: Add a single threaded workqueue for initializing a path)

Note: There is no need to get a reference for the device handler module
(as it was done in the dm hardware handler case) here as the reference
is held when the device was first found. Instead we check and make sure
that support for the specified device is present at table load time.

a6a8d9f87e [SCSI] scsi_dh: add infrastructure for SCSI Device Handlers
Some of the storage devices (that can be accessed through multiple paths),
do need some special handling for
	1. Activating the passive path of the storage access.
	2. Decode and handle the special sense codes returned by the devices.
	3. Handle the I/Os being sent to the passive path, especially
           during the device probe time.
when accessed through multiple paths.

As of today this special device handling is done at the dm-multipath
layer using dm-handlers. That works well for (1); for (2) to be handled
at dm layer, scsi sense information need to be exported from SCSI to dm-layer,
which is not very attractive; (3) cannot be done at all at the dm layer.

Device handler has been moved to SCSI mainly to handle (2) and (3) properly.
