Timothy Thelin 186d330e68 [SCSI] scsi: sd, sr, st, and scsi_lib all fail to copy cmd_len to new cmd
This fixes an issue in scsi command initialization from a request
where sd, sr, st, and scsi_lib all fail to copy the request's
cmd_len to the scsi command's cmd_len field.

James Bottomley a89f29f6ea [SCSI] aic7xxx: move to dma_get_required_mask() and correct 39 bit assumptions
This patch moves aic7xxx over to the dma_get_required_mask() API and
dumps its open coded memory check.

It also appears from this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=167049

That 39 bit addressing doesn't work on older cards.  I surmise that the
AHC_LARGE_SCBS flag is the one that marks cards capable of using 39 bit
addressing, so I also folded that check into the code.

Dave C Boutcher 154fb614df [SCSI] ibmvscsi compatibility fix
Linda Xie ever so gently pointed out that she had a patch
to preserve compatibility with older SLES targets, and I told
her we didn't need to push it to mainline.

This patch explicitly checks the version of the IBMVSCSI target
and ensures that large scatterlists are not sent to older

James Bottomley 146f7262ee [SCSI] Alter the scsi_add_device() API to conform to what users expect
The original API returned either an ERR_PTR() or a refcounted sdev.
Unfortunately, if it's successful, you need to do a scsi_device_put() on
the sdev otherwise the refcounting is wrong.

Everyone seems to expect that scsi_add_device() should be callable
without doing the ref put, so alter the API so it is (we still have
__scsi_add_device with the original behaviour).

The only actual caller that needs altering is the one in firewire ...
not because it gets this right, but because it acts on the error if one
is returned.

Christoph Hellwig c7ebbbce36 [SCSI] SAS transport class
The SAS transport class contains common code to deal with SAS HBAs, an
aproximated representation of SAS topologies in the driver model,
and various sysfs attributes to expose these topologies and managment
interfaces to userspace.

In addition to the basic SCSI core objects this transport class introduces
two additional intermediate objects:  The SAS PHY as represented by struct
sas_phy defines an "outgoing" PHY on a SAS HBA or Expander, and the SAS
remote PHY represented by struct sas_rphy defines an "incoming" PHY on a
SAS Expander or end device.  Note that this is purely a software concept, the
underlying hardware for a PHY and a remote PHY is the exactly the same.

There is no concept of a SAS port in this code, users can see what PHYs
form a wide port based on the port_identifier attribute, which is the same
for all PHYs in a port.

This submission doesn't handle hot-plug addition or removal of SAS devices
and thus doesn't do scanning in a workqueue yet, that will be added in
phase2 after this submission.  In a third phase I will add additional
managment infrastructure.

I think this submission is ready for 2.6.14, but additional comments are
of course very welcome.

I'd like to thanks James Smart a lot for his very useful input on the
design.

Douglas Gilbert 1c8e71d720 [SCSI] sg: do not set VM_IO flag on mmap-ed pages
Further to the problem discussed in this post:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=112540053711489&w=2

It seems that the sg driver does not need to set the VM_IO flag
on pages that it memory maps to the user space since they are
not from the IO space. Ahmed Teirelbar <ahmed.teirelbar@adic.com>
wants the facility and has tested this patch as I have without
adverse effects.

The oops protection is still important. Some users really did
try and use dio transfers from the sg driver to memory mapped
IO space (on a video capture card if my memory serves) during the
lk 2.4 series. I'm not sure how successful it was but that will
now be politely refused in lk 2.6.13+ .

Changelog:
   - set the page flags for sg's reserved buffer mmap-ed
     to the user space to VM_RESERVED (rather than
     VM_RESERVED | VM_IO )

James Bottomley 788ce43aa1 [SCSI] SCSI core: fix leakage of scsi_cmnd's
Actually, just one problem and one cosmetic fix:

1) We need to dequeue for the loop and kill case (it seems easiest
simply to dequeue in the scsi_kill_request() routine)
2) There's no real need to drop the queue lock.  __scsi_done() is lock
agnostic, so since there's no requirement, let's just leave it in to
avoid any locking issues.

James Bottomley e91442b635 [SCSI] SCSI core: fix leakage of scsi_cmnd's
From: 	Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu>

This patch (as559b) adds a new routine, scsi_unprep_request, which
gets called every place a request is requeued.  (That includes
scsi_queue_insert as well as scsi_requeue_command.)  It also changes
scsi_kill_requests to make it call __scsi_done with result equal to
DID_NO_CONNECT << 16.  (I'm not sure if it's necessary to call
scsi_init_cmd_errh here; maybe you can check on that.)  Finally, the
patch changes the return value from scsi_end_request, to avoid
returning a stale pointer in the case where the request was requeued.
Fortunately the return value is used in only place, and the change
actually simplified it.

Neil Brown 286f3e13a1 [SCSI] fix possible deadlock in scsi_lib.c
If a filesystem, while writing out data, decides that it is good
to issue a cache flush on a SCSI drive (or other 'sd' device), it will
call blkdev_issue_flush which calls ->issue_flush_fn which is
scsi_issue_flush_fn.
This calls sd_issue_flush which calls sd_sync_cache, which calls
scsi_execute_request.
This will (as sshdr != NULL) call
    kmalloc(SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE, GFP_KERNEL)

If memory is tight, the presence of GFP_KERNEL may cause write
requests to be sent to some filesystem to free up memory, however if
that filesystem is waiting for the issue_flush_fn to complete, you
could get a deadlock.

I wonder if it might be more appropriate to use GFP_NOIO as in the
following patch.

I wonder if it might be even more appropriate to cope better with a
kmalloc failure, especially as in this use, sd_sync_cache only will
use the sense information to print out a more informative error
message.

Hannes Reinecke 6a690df5c8 [PATCH] scan all enabled ports on ata_piix
ICH6 spec defines the PORT_ bits as:

PORT_ENABLED (R/W):

  0 = Disabled.  The port is in the off state and cannot detect any
  devices.

  1 = Enabled.  The port can transition between the on, partial, and
  slumber states and can detect devices.

PORT_PRESENT  (R/O)

  The status of this bit may change at any time.  This bit is cleared
  when the port is disabled via PORT_ENABLED.  This bit is not cleared upon
  surprise removal of a device.

So from a textual view it is not necessary that PORT_PRESENT _must_ be set,
especially if a device detection has to be done anyway.  And, in fact, this
is the view that ACER has been taken with its new Laptops (e.g.  Travelmate
4150).

And the definition of PORT_ENABLED / PORT_PRESENT is mixed up, btw.

Alan Stern e47373ec1c [SCSI] return success after retries in scsi_eh_tur
The problem lies in the way the error handler uses TEST UNIT READY to
tell whether error recovery has succeeded.  The scsi_eh_tur function
gives up after one round of retrying; after that it decides that more
error recovery is needed.

However TUR is liable to report sense data indicating a retry is needed
when in fact error recovery has succeeded.  A typical example might be
SK=2, ASC=4, ASCQ=1 (Logical unit in process of becoming ready).  The mere
fact that we were able to get a sensible reply to the TUR should indicate
that the device is working well enough to stop error recovery.

I ran across a case back in January where this happened.  A CD-ROM drive
timed out the INQUIRY command, and a device reset fixed the blockage.
But then the drive kept responding with 2/4/1 -- because it was spinning
up I suppose -- until the error handler gave up and placed it offline.
If the initial INQUIRY had received the 2/4/1 instead, everything would
have worked okay.  It doesn't seem reasonable for things to fail just
because the error handler had started running.

James Bottomley 4dddbc26c3 [SCSI] ibmvscsi: handle large scatter/gather lists
The maximum size of a scatter-gather list that the current IBM VSCSI
Client can handle is 10.  This patch adds large scatter-gather support
to the client so that it is capable of handling up to SG_ALL(255)
number of requests in the scatter-gather list.
