This was causing some test apps to exit due to write failure under heavy

This was due to a race around adding and removing tx frame skb in
fcoe_pending_queue, Chris Leech helped me to find that brief unlocking
period when pulling skb from fcoe_pending_queue in various contexts
(fcoe_watchdog and fcoe_xmit) and then adding skb back into fcoe_pending_queue
up on a failed fcoe_start_io could change skb/tx frame order in
fcoe_pending_queue. Thanks Chris.
This patch allows only single context to pull skb from fcoe_pending_queue
at any time to prevent above described ordering issue/race by use of
fcoe_pending_queue_active flag.
This patch simplified fcoe_watchdog with modified fcoe_check_wait_queue by
use of FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH instead previously used several conditionals
to clear and set lp->qfull.
I think FCOE_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH with FCOE_LOW_QUEUE_DEPTH will work better
in re/setting lp->qfull and these could be fine tuned for performance.

This allows any rport ELS to retry on LS_RJT.
The rport error handling would only retry on resource allocation failures
and exchange timeouts. I have a target that will occasionally reject PLOGI
when we do a quick LOGO/PLOGI. When a critical ELS was rejected, libfc would
fail silently leaving the rport in a dead state.
The retry count and delay are managed by fc_rport_error_retry. If the retry
count is exceeded fc_rport_error will be called. When retrying is not the
correct course of action, fc_rport_error can be called directly.

The fcoe_xmit could call fc_pause in case the pending skb queue len is larger
than FCOE_MAX_QUEUE_DEPTH, the fc_pause was trying to grab lport->lp_muex to
change lport->link_status and that had these issues :-
1. The fcoe_xmit was getting called with bh disabled, thus causing
"BUG: scheduling while atomic" when grabbing lport->lp_muex with bh disabled.
2. fc_linkup and fc_linkdown function calls lport_enter function with
lport->lp_mutex held and these enter function in turn calls fcoe_xmit to send
lport related FC frame, e.g. fc_linkup => fc_lport_enter_flogi to send flogi
req. In this case grabbing the same lport->lp_mutex again in fc_puase from
fcoe_xmit would cause deadlock.
The lport->lp_mutex was used for setting FC_PAUSE in fcoe_xmit path but
FC_PAUSE bit was not used anywhere beside just setting and clear this
bit in lport->link_status, instead used a separate field qfull in fc_lport
to eliminate need for lport->lp_mutex to track pending queue full condition
and in turn avoid above described two locking issues.
Also added check for lp->qfull in fc_fcp_lport_queue_ready to trigger
SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY when lp->qfull is set to prevent more scsi-ml cmds
while lp->qfull is set.
This patch eliminated FC_LINK_UP and FC_PAUSE and instead used dedicated
fields in fc_lport for this, this simplified all related conditional
code.
Also removed fc_pause and fc_unpause functions and instead used newly added
lport->qfull directly in fcoe.

libFC is composed of 4 blocks supported by an exchange manager
and a framing library. The upper 4 layers are fc_lport, fc_disc,
fc_rport and fc_fcp. A LLD that uses libfc could choose to
either use libfc's block, or using the transport template
defined in libfc.h, override one or more blocks with its own
implementation.
The EM (Exchange Manager) manages exhcanges/sequences for all
commands- ELS, CT and FCP.
The framing library frames ELS and CT commands.
The fc_lport block manages the library's representation of the
host's FC enabled ports.
The fc_disc block manages discovery of targets as well as
handling changes that occur in the FC fabric (via. RSCN events).
The fc_rport block manages the library's representation of other
entities in the FC fabric. Currently the library uses this block
for targets, its peer when in point-to-point mode and the
directory server, but can be extended for other entities if
needed.
The fc_fcp block interacts with the scsi-ml and handles all
I/O.

Currently, if there is a transport problem the iscsi drivers will return
outstanding commands (commands being exeucted by the driver/fw/hw) with
DID_BUS_BUSY and block the session so no new commands can be queued.
Commands that are caught between the failure handling and blocking are
failed with DID_IMM_RETRY or one of the scsi ml queuecommand return values.
When the recovery_timeout fires, the iscsi drivers then fail IO with
DID_NO_CONNECT.
For fcp, some drivers will fail some outstanding IO (disk but possibly not
tape) with DID_BUS_BUSY or DID_ERROR or some other value that causes a retry
and hits the scsi_error.c failfast check, block the rport, and commands
caught in the race are failed with DID_IMM_RETRY. Other drivers, may
hold onto all IO and wait for the terminate_rport_io or dev_loss_tmo_callbk
to be called.
The following patches attempt to unify what upper layers will see drivers
like multipath can make a good guess. This relies on drivers being
hooked into their transport class.
This first patch just defines two new host byte errors so drivers can
return the same value for when a rport/session is blocked and for
when the fast_io_fail_tmo fires.
The idea is that if the LLD/class detects a problem and is going to block
a rport/session, then if the LLD wants or must return the command to scsi-ml,
then it can return it with DID_TRANSPORT_DISRUPTED. This will requeue
the IO into the same scsi queue it came from, until the fast io fail timer
fires and the class decides what to do.
When using multipath and the fast_io_fail_tmo fires then the class
can fail commands with DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST or drivers can use
DID_TRANSPORT_FAILFAST in their terminate_rport_io callbacks or
the equivlent in iscsi if we ever implement more advanced recovery methods.
A LLD, like lpfc, could continue to return DID_ERROR and then it will hit
the normal failfast path, so drivers do not have fully be ported to
work better. The point of the patches is that upper layers will
not see a failure that could be recovered from while the rport/session is
blocked until fast_io_fail_tmo/recovery_timeout fires.

When we block a rport and the driver implements the terminate
callback we will fail IO that was running quickly. However
IO that was in the scsi_device/block queue sits there until
the dev_loss_tmo fires, and this can make it look like IO is
lost because new IO will get executed but that IO stuck in
the blocked queue sits there for some time longer.
With this patch when the fast io fail tmo fires, we will
fail the blocked IO and any new IO. This patch also allows
all drivers to partially support the fast io fail tmo. If the
terminate io callback is not implemented, we will still fail blocked
IO and any new IO, so multipath can handle that.
This patch also allows the fc and iscsi classes to implement the
same behavior. The timers are just unfornately named differently.
This patch also fixes the problem where drivers were unblocking
the target in their terminate callback, which was needed for
rport removal, but for fast io fail timeout it would cause
IO to bounce arround the scsi/block layer and the LLD queuecommand.
And it for drivers that could have IO stuck but did not have
a terminate callback the unblock calls in the class will fix
them.

SCSI-ml manages the queueing limits for the device and host, but
does not do so at the target level. However something something similar
can come in userful when a driver is transitioning a transport object to
the the blocked state, becuase at that time we do not want to queue
io and we do not want the queuecommand to be called again.
The patch adds code similar to the exisiting SCSI_ML_*BUSY handlers.
You can now return SCSI_MLQUEUE_TARGET_BUSY when we hit
a transport level queueing issue like the hw cannot allocate some
resource at the iscsi session/connection level, or the target has temporarily
closed or shrunk the queueing window, or if we are transitioning
to the blocked state.
bnx2i, when they rework their firmware according to netdev
developers requests, will also need to be able to limit queueing at this
level. bnx2i will hook into libiscsi, but will allocate a scsi host per
netdevice/hba, so unlike pure software iscsi/iser which is allocating
a host per session, it cannot set the scsi_host->can_queue and return
SCSI_MLQUEUE_HOST_BUSY to reflect queueing limits on the transport.
The iscsi class/driver can also set a scsi_target->can_queue value which
reflects the max commands the driver/class can support. For iscsi this
reflects the number of commands we can support for each session due to
session/connection hw limits, driver limits, and to also reflect the
session/targets's queueing window.
Changes:
v1 - initial patch.
v2 - Fix scsi_run_queue handling of multiple blocked targets.
Previously we would break from the main loop if a device was added back on
the starved list. We now run over the list and check if any target is
blocked.

This patch adds scsi netlink recieve and event support for transport
and scsi LLDD's. It is a reimplementation of the patch posted last
week by David Somayajulu.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=121745486221819&w=2
There are a few things done differently:
- Transport support is included
- Event delivery is included
- The vendor message is now its own unique message type, considered
part of the generic "SCSI Transport".
- LLDD entry points are now registered rather than included in the
scsi_host_template.
Background: When I started to implement the event handler via template,
I had to either: muck up scsi_add_host and scsi_remove_host; or have
the event handler search all possible shosts. Neither was acceptable.
Moving to a registration solves this, and also limits the scope of
the changes to something that could be backported to a distro without
breaking an already-released-distro kabi. However, I admit it isn't
as elegant, as the passing of the LLDD host template in the
registration and the complexity around dynamic add/remove shows.
- The receive path was augmented to require a unique identifier for
the LLDD before the message was allowed to be handed off to the
driver. Given how quickly very fatal errors occur if there's msg
mismatches (which I saw in testing my own tools :), I believe this
to be a very good thing. The id plays off the vendor id scheme already
introduced for the vendor unique event messages used by FC.
Additionally, the id use as the basis of the registration/deregistration.
- Send assist functions, for both the transport and LLDDs are included.

The last_sector_bug flag was added to work around a bug in certain usb
cardreaders, where they would crash if a multiple sector read included the
last sector. The original implementation avoids this by e.g. splitting an 8
sector read which includes the last sector into a 7 sector read, and a single
sector read for the last sector. The flag is enabled for all USB devices.
This revealed a second bug in other usb cardreaders, which crash when they
get a multiple sector read which stops 1 sector short of the last sector.
Affected hardware includes the Kingston "MobileLite" external USB cardreader
and the internal USB cardreader on the Asus EeePC.
Extend the last_sector_bug workaround to ensure that any access which touches
the last 8 hardware sectors of the device is a single sector long. Requests
are shrunk as necessary to meet this constraint.
This gives us a safety margin against potential unknown or future bugs
affecting multi-sector access to the end of the device. The two known bugs
only affect the last 2 sectors. However, they suggest that these devices
are prone to fencepost errors and that multi-sector access to the end of the
device is not well tested. Popular OS's use multi-sector accesses, but they
rarely read the last few sectors. Linux (with udev & vol_id) automatically
reads sectors from the end of the device on insertion. It is assumed that
single sector accesses are more thoroughly tested during development.

This patch (as1116) fixes a bug in scsi_eh_prep_cmnd() and
scsi_eh_restore_cmnd(). These routines are supposed to save any
values they change and restore them later, but someone forgot to
save & restore scmd->underflow.
This fixes part of the problem reported in Bugzilla #9638.

Implement support for DMA of protection information for devices that
are data integrity capable.
- Add support for mapping an extra scatter-gather list containing
the protection information.
- Allocate protection scsi_data_buffer if host is DIX (integrity DMA)
capable.
- Accessor function for checking whether a device has protection
enabled.

Controllers that support DMA of protection information must be told
explicitly how to handle the I/O. The controller has no knowledge of
the protection capabilities of the target device so this information
must be passed in the scsi_cmnd.
- The protection operation tells the HBA whether to generate, strip or
verify protection information.
- The protection type tells the HBA which layout the target is
formatted with. This is necessary because the controller must be
able to correctly interpret the included protection information in
order to verify it.
- When a scsi_cmnd is reused for error handling the protection
operation must be cleared and saved while error handling is in
progress.
- prot_op and prot_type are placed in an existing hole in scsi_cmnd
and don't cause the structure to grow.

Controllers that support protection information must indicate this to
the SCSI midlayer so that the ULD can prepare scsi_cmnds accordingly.
This patch implements a host mask and various types of protection:
- DIF Type 1-3 (between HBA and disk)
- DIX Type 0-3 (between OS and HBA)
The patch also allows the HBA to set the guard type to something
different than the T10-mandated CRC.

multipath keeps a separate device table which may be
more current than the built-in one.
So we should make sure to always call ->attach whenever
a multipath map with hardware handler is instantiated.
And we should call ->detach on removal, too.
