The error handler is using the test cmd->serial_number == 0 in the
abort routines to signal that the command to be aborted has already
completed normally. This design was to close a race window in the
original error handler where a command could go through the normal
completion routines after it timed out but before error handling was
started.
Mike Anderson pointed out that when we converted our timeout and
softirq completions, we picked up atomicity here because the block
layer now mediates this with the REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE flag and guarantees
that *either* the command times out or our done routine is called, but
ensures we can't get both occurring. That makes the serial number
zero check redundant and it can be removed.

We leak a page allocated for discard on some error conditions

We unprep on requests that weren't prepped in the error path of
scsi_init_io. It makes the error path to clean up scsi commands messy.
Let's strictly apply the rule that we can't unprep on a request that
wasn't prepped.
Calling just scsi_put_command() in the error path of scsi_init_io() is
enough. We don't set REQ_DONTPREP yet.
scsi_setup_discard_cmnd can safely free a page on the error case with

the sense data contains ATA registers.

Because of the terrible structuring of scsi-bidi-commands
it breaks some of the life time rules of a scsi-command.
It is now not allowed to free up the block-request before
cleanup and partial deallocation of the scsi-command. (Which
is not so for none bidi commands)
The right fix to this problem would be to make bidi command
a first citizen by allocating a scsi_sdb pointer at scsi command
just like cmd->prot_sdb. The bidi sdb should be allocated/deallocated
as part of the get/put_command (Again like the prot_sdb) and the
current decoupling of scsi_cmnd and blk-request should be kept.
For now make sure scsi_release_buffers() is called before the
call to blk_end_request_all() which might cause the suicide of
the block requests. At best the leak of bidi buffers, at worse
a crash, as there is a race between the existence of the bidi_request
and the free of the associated bidi_sdb.
The reason this was never hit before is because only OSD has the potential
of doing asynchronous bidi commands. (So does bsg but it is never used)
And OSD clients just happen to do all their bidi commands synchronously, up
until recently.

Till now block layer allowed two separate modes of request execution.
A request is always acquired from the request queue via
elv_next_request(). After that, drivers are free to either dequeue it
or process it without dequeueing. Dequeue allows elv_next_request()
to return the next request so that multiple requests can be in flight.
Executing requests without dequeueing has its merits mostly in
allowing drivers for simpler devices which can't do sg to deal with
segments only without considering request boundary. However, the
benefit this brings is dubious and declining while the cost of the API
ambiguity is increasing. Segment based drivers are usually for very
old or limited devices and as converting to dequeueing model isn't
difficult, it doesn't justify the API overhead it puts on block layer
and its more modern users.
Previous patches converted all block low level drivers to dequeueing
model. This patch completes the API transition by...
* renaming elv_next_request() to blk_peek_request()
* renaming blkdev_dequeue_request() to blk_start_request()
* adding blk_fetch_request() which is combination of peek and start
* disallowing completion of queued (not started) requests
* applying new API to all LLDs
Renamings are for consistency and to break out of tree code so that
it's apparent that out of tree drivers need updating.

rq->data_len served two purposes - the length of data buffer on issue
and the residual count on completion. This duality creates some
headaches.
First of all, block layer and low level drivers can't really determine
what rq->data_len contains while a request is executing. It could be
the total request length or it coulde be anything else one of the
lower layers is using to keep track of residual count. This
complicates things because blk_rq_bytes() and thus
[__]blk_end_request_all() relies on rq->data_len for PC commands.
Drivers which want to report residual count should first cache the
total request length, update rq->data_len and then complete the
request with the cached data length.
Secondly, it makes requests default to reporting full residual count,
ie. reporting that no data transfer occurred. The residual count is
an exception not the norm; however, the driver should clear
rq->data_len to zero to signify the normal cases while leaving it
alone means no data transfer occurred at all. This reverse default
behavior complicates code unnecessarily and renders block PC on some
drivers (ide-tape/floppy) unuseable.
This patch adds rq->resid_len which is used only for residual count.
While at it, remove now unnecessasry blk_rq_bytes() caching in
ide_pc_intr() as rq->data_len is not changed anymore.

that the request actually completes by doing BUG_ON() the return
value, which is awkward and error-prone.
This patch adds [__]blk_end_request_all() which takes @rq and @error
and fully completes the request. BUG_ON() is added to to ensure that
this actually happens.
Most conversions are simple but there are a few noteworthy ones.
* cdrom/viocd: viocd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to
__blk_end_request_all().
* s390/block/dasd: dasd_end_request() replaced with direct calls to
__blk_end_request_all().
* s390/char/tape_block: tapeblock_end_request() replaced with direct
calls to blk_end_request_all().

We cannot call blk_plug_device from scsi_target_queue_ready
because the q lock is not held. And we do not need to call
it from there because when we return 0, the scsi_request_fn
not_ready handling will plug the queue for us if needed.

We have a problem with recovered error handling in that any command
which goes down as BLOCK_PC but which returns a sense code of RECOVERED
ERROR gets completed with -EIO. For actual SG_IO commands, this doesn't
matter at all, since the error return code gets dropped in favour of
req->errors which contain the SCSI completion code.
However, if this command is part of the block system, then it will pay
attention to the returned error code. In particularly if a SYNCHRONIZE
CACHE from a barrier command completes with RECOVERED ERROR, the
resulting -EIO on the barrier causes block to error the request and
return it to the filesystem. Fix this by converting the -EIO for
recovered error to zero, plus remove the printing of this from sd and sr
so the message isn't double printed.

No one uses scsi_execute_async with data transfer now. We can remove
scsi_req_map_sg.
Only scsi_eh_lock_door uses scsi_execute_async. scsi_eh_lock_door
doesn't handle sense and the callback. So we can remove
scsi_io_context too.

[SCSI] simplify scsi_io_completion()
Because scsi_release_buffers() is called before commands that go
through the ACTION_RETRY and ACTION_DELAYED_RETRY legs are requeued.
However, they're not re-prepared, so nothing ever reallocates the
buffer resources to them. Fix this by releasing the buffers only if
we're not going to go down these legs (but scsi_release_buffers() on
all legs including two in scsi_end_request(); this latter needs a
special version __scsi_release_buffers() because the final one can be
called after the request has been freed, so the bidi test in
scsi_release_buffers(), which touches the request has to be skipped).

[SCSI] simplify scsi_io_completion()
broke DIX error handling. Also, we are now using EILSEQ to indicate
integrity errors to the upper layers (as opposed to regular EIO
failures). This allows filesystems to inspect buffers and decide
whether to retry the I/O. Update scsi_io_completion() accordingly.

[SCSI] simplify scsi_io_completion()
because the simplification uses scsi_queue_insert(). The problem with
this function is that it expects to be called from the completion path
while the command is still outstanding, so it decrements the device
and host busy counts to do the requeue. The problem is that
scsi_io_completion() is a path executed well after these counts have
*already* been decremented, leading to a double decrement if the
command goes down any error path leading to ACTION_DELAYED_RETRY.
The fix is to allow a private function __scsi_queue_insert() with a
flag to say whether the busy counters should be decremented. This is
made static to scsi_lib.c to discourage other use.

This patch (as1142b) consolidates a lot of repetitious code in
scsi_io_completion(). It also fixes a few comments. Most
importantly, however, it clearly distinguishes among the three sorts
of retries that can be done when a command fails to complete:
Unprepare the request and resubmit it, so that a new
command will be created for it.
Requeue the request directly so that it will be retried
immediately using the same command.
Requeue the request so that it will be retried following
a short delay.
Complete the remainder of the request with an I/O error.
[jejb: Updates
1. For several error conditions, we would now print the sense twice
in slightly different ways, so unify the location of sense
printing.
2. I added more descriptions to actual failure conditions for
better debugging
3. according to spec, ABORTED_COMMAND is supposed to be retried
(except on DIF failure). Our old behaviour of erroring it looks
to be a bug.
4. I'd prefer not to default initialise the action variable because
that ensures that every leg of the error handler has an
associated action and the compiler will warn if someone later
accidentally misses one or removes one.

It's called under that lock everywhere else and it does alter the
request state, so it should be.
This one occurance in scsi_requeue_command() could open a window where
req->special is set to NULL while the requests is going through either
timeout or completion processing leading to NULL pointer derefs of the
sort complained of in bugzillas 12020 and 12195.

This patch implements q->lld_busy_fn() for scsi mid layer to export
its busy state for request stacking drivers.
For efficiency, no lock is taken to check the busy state of
shost/starget/sdev, since the returned value is not guaranteed and
may be changed after request stacking drivers call the function,
regardless of taking lock or not.
When scsi can't dispatch I/Os anymore and needs to kill I/Os
(e.g. !sdev), scsi needs to return 'not busy'.
Otherwise, request stacking drivers may hold requests forever.

The problem is essentially caused by us eating UNIT_ATTENTION
conditions in scsi_test_unit_ready(). Fix by updating the ->changed
flag when this happens if the media is removable.
