Boaz Harrosh db4742dd8f [SCSI] add support for variable length extended commands
Add support for variable-length, extended, and vendor specific
CDBs to scsi-ml. It is now possible for initiators and ULD's
to issue these types of commands. LLDs need not change much.
All they need is to raise the .max_cmd_len to the longest command
they support (see iscsi patch).

- clean-up some code paths that did not expect commands to be
  larger than 16, and change cmd_len members' type to short as
  char is not enough.

Boaz Harrosh 64a87b244b [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

FUJITA Tomonori 9ac16b616a [SCSI] scsi: add wrapper functions for sg buffer copy helper functions
LLDs need to copies data between the SG table in struct scsi_cmnd and
liner buffer. So they use the helper functions like

sg_copy_from_buffer(scsi_sglist(sc), scsi_sg_count(sc), buf, buflen)
sg_copy_to_buffer(scsi_sglist(sc), scsi_sg_count(sc), buf, buflen)

This patch just adds wrapper functions:

scsi_sg_copy_from_buffer(sc, buf, buflen)
scsi_sg_copy_to_buffer(sc, buf, buflen)

Boaz Harrosh 6f9a35e2da [SCSI] bidirectional command support
At the block level bidi request uses req->next_rq pointer for a second
bidi_read request.
At Scsi-midlayer a second scsi_data_buffer structure is used for the
bidi_read part. This bidi scsi_data_buffer is put on
request->next_rq->special. Struct scsi_cmnd is not changed.

- Define scsi_bidi_cmnd() to return true if it is a bidi request and a
  second sgtable was allocated.

- Define scsi_in()/scsi_out() to return the in or out scsi_data_buffer
  from this command This API is to isolate users from the mechanics of
  bidi.

- Define scsi_end_bidi_request() to do what scsi_end_request() does but
  for a bidi request. This is necessary because bidi commands are a bit
  tricky here. (See comments in body)

- scsi_release_buffers() will also release the bidi_read scsi_data_buffer

- scsi_io_completion() on bidi commands will now call
  scsi_end_bidi_request() and return.

- The previous work done in scsi_init_io() is now done in a new
  scsi_init_sgtable() (which is 99% identical to old scsi_init_io())
  The new scsi_init_io() will call the above twice if needed also for
  the bidi_read command. Only at this point is a command bidi.

- In scsi_error.c at scsi_eh_prep/restore_cmnd() make sure bidi-lld is not
  confused by a get-sense command that looks like bidi. This is done
  by puting NULL at request->next_rq, and restoring.

Boaz Harrosh 30b0c37b27 [SCSI] implement scsi_data_buffer
In preparation for bidi we abstract all IO members of scsi_cmnd,
that will need to duplicate, into a substructure.

- Group all IO members of scsi_cmnd into a scsi_data_buffer
  structure.
- Adjust accessors to new members.
- scsi_{alloc,free}_sgtable receive a scsi_data_buffer instead of
  scsi_cmnd. And work on it.
- Adjust scsi_init_io() and  scsi_release_buffers() for above
  change.
- Fix other parts of scsi_lib/scsi.c to members migration. Use
  accessors where appropriate.

- fix Documentation about scsi_cmnd in scsi_host.h

- scsi_error.c
  * Changed needed members of struct scsi_eh_save.
  * Careful considerations in scsi_eh_prep/restore_cmnd.

- sd.c and sr.c
  * sd and sr would adjust IO size to align on device's block
    size so code needs to change once we move to scsi_data_buff
    implementation.
  * Convert code to use scsi_for_each_sg
  * Use data accessors where appropriate.

- tgt: convert libsrp to use scsi_data_buffer

- isd200: This driver still bangs on scsi_cmnd IO members,
  so need changing

FUJITA Tomonori de25deb180 [SCSI] use dynamically allocated sense buffer
This removes static array sense_buffer in scsi_cmnd and uses
dynamically allocated sense_buffer (with GFP_DMA).

The reason for doing this is that some architectures need cacheline
aligned buffer for DMA:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/11/19/2

The problems are that scsi_eh_prep_cmnd puts scsi_cmnd::sense_buffer
to sglist and some LLDs directly DMA to scsi_cmnd::sense_buffer. It's
necessary to DMA to scsi_cmnd::sense_buffer safely. This patch solves
these issues.

__scsi_get_command allocates sense_buffer via kmem_cache_alloc and
attaches it to a scsi_cmnd so everything just work as before.

Linus Torvalds 7b3d9545f9 Revert "scsi: revert "[SCSI] Get rid of scsi_cmnd->done""
This reverts commit ac40532ef0, which gets
us back the original cleanup of 6f5391c283.

It turns out that the bug that was triggered by that commit was
apparently not actually triggered by that commit at all, and just the
testing conditions had changed enough to make it appear to be due to it.

The real problem seems to have been found by Peter Osterlund:

  "pktcdvd sets it [block device size] when opening the /dev/pktcdvd
   device, but when the drive is later opened as /dev/scd0, there is
   nothing that sets it back.  (Btw, 40944 is possible if the disk is a
   CDRW that was formatted with "cdrwtool -m 10236".)

   The problem is that pktcdvd opens the cd device in non-blocking mode
   when pktsetup is run, and doesn't close it again until pktsetup -d is
   run.  The effect is that if you meanwhile open the cd device,
   blkdev.c:do_open() doesn't call bd_set_size() because
   bdev->bd_openers is non-zero."

In particular, to repeat the bug (regardless of whether commit
6f5391c283 is applied or not):

  " 1. Start with an empty drive.
    2. pktsetup 0 /dev/scd0
    3. Insert a CD containing an isofs filesystem.
    4. mount /dev/pktcdvd/0 /mnt/tmp
    5. umount /mnt/tmp
    6. Press the eject button.
    7. Insert a DVD containing a non-writable filesystem.
    8. mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/tmp
    9. find /mnt/tmp -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sha1sum >/dev/null
    10. If the DVD contains data beyond the physical size of a CD, you
        get I/O errors in the terminal, and dmesg reports lots of
        "attempt to access beyond end of device" errors."

which in turn is because the nested open after the media change won't
cause the size to be set properly (because the original open still holds
the block device, and we only do the bd_set_size() when we don't have
other people holding the device open).

The proper fix for that is probably to just do something like

	bdev->bd_inode->i_size = (loff_t)get_capacity(disk)<<9;

in fs/block_dev.c:do_open() even for the cases where we're not the
original opener (but *not* call bd_set_size(), since that will also
change the block size of the device).

Matthew Wilcox 6f5391c283 [SCSI] Get rid of scsi_cmnd->done
The ULD ->done callback moves into the scsi_driver.  By moving the call
to scsi_io_completion() from scsi_blk_pc_done() to scsi_finish_command(),
we can eliminate the latter entirely.  By returning 'good_bytes' from
the ->done callback (rather than invoking scsi_io_completion()), we can
stop exporting scsi_io_completion().

Also move the prototypes from sd.h to sd.c as they're all internal anyway.
Rename sd_rw_intr to sd_done and rw_intr to sr_done.

Mike Christie 181011e04a [SCSI] tgt: rm bio hacks in scsi tgt
scsi tgt breaks up a command into multple scatterlists
if we cannot fit all the data in one. This was because
the block rq helpers did not support large requests and
because we can get a command of any old size so it is
hard to preallocate pages for scatterlist large enough
(we cannot really preallocate pages with the bio map
user path). In 2.6.20, we added large request support to
the block layer helper, blk_rq_map_user. And at LSF,
we talked about increasing SCSI_MAX_PHYS_SEGMENTS for
scsi tgt if we want to support really really :) large
(greater than 256 * PAGE_SIZE in the worst mapping case)
requests.

The only target currently implemented does not even support
the multiple scatterlists stuff and only supports smaller
requests, so this patch just coverts scsi tgt to use
blk_rq_map_user.

FUJITA Tomonori b58d91547f [SCSI] export scsi-ml functions needed by tgt_scsi_lib and its LLDs
This patch contains the needed changes to the scsi-ml for the target
mode support.

Note, per the last review we moved almost all the fields we added
to the scsi_cmnd to our internal data structure which we are going
to try and kill off when we can replace it with support from other
parts of the kernel.

The one field we left on was the offset variable. This is needed to handle
the case where the target gets request that is so large that it cannot
execute it in one dma operation. So max_secotors or a segment limit may
limit the size of the transfer. In this case our tgt core code will
break up the command into managable transfers and send them to the
LLD one at a time. The offset is then used to tell the LLD where in
the command we are at. Is there another field on the scsi_cmd for
that?

Currently struct scsi_cmnd has various fields that are used to backup
original data after the corresponding fields have been overridden for

Due to the old_ naming this doesn't happen for most of them, but two
that have different names have been used wrong a lot (see previous
patch).  Another downside is that they unessecarily bloat the scsi_cmnd
size.

sd: "good_bytes" computation is always done in terms of the resolution

that to their own resolution (block layer:512).  It also makes
scsi_io_completion() processing more straightforward, eliminating the

Guennadi Liakhovetski cdb8c2a6d8 [SCSI] dc395x: dynamically map scatter-gather for PIO
The current dc395x driver uses PIO to transfer up to 4 bytes which do not
get transferred by DMA (under unclear circumstances). For this the driver
uses page_address() which is broken on highmem. Apart from this the
actual calculation of the virtual address is wrong (even without highmem).
So, e.g., for reading it reads bytes from the driver to a wrong address
and returns wrong data, I guess, for writing it would just output random
data to the device.

The proper fix, as suggested by many, is to dynamically map data using
kmap_atomic(page, KM_BIO_SRC_IRQ) / kunmap_atomic(virt). The reason why it
has not been done until now, although I've done some preliminary patches
more than a year ago was that nobody interested in fixing this problem was
able to reliably reproduce it. Now it changed - with the help from
Sebastian Frei (CC'ed) I was able to trigger the PIO path. Thus, I was
also able to test and debug it.

There are 4 cases when PIO is used in dc395x - data-in / -out with and
without scatter-gather. I was able to reproduce and test only data-in with
and without SG. So, the data-out path is still untested, but it is also
somewhat simpler than the data-in. Fredrik Roubert (also CC'ed) also had
PIO triggering on his system, and in his case it was data-out without SG.
It would be great if he could test the attached patch on his system, but
even if he cannot, I would still request to apply the patch and just wait
if anybody cries...

Implementation: I put 2 new functions in scsi_lib.c and their declarations
in scsi_cmnd.h. I exported them without _GPL, although, I don't feel
strongly about that - not many drivers are likely to use them. But there
is at least one more - I want to use them in tmscsim.c. Whether these are
the right files for the functions and their declarations - not sure
either. Actually, they are not scsi-specific, so, might go somewhere
around other scattergather magic? They are not platform specific either,
and most SG functions are defined under arch/*/... As these issues were
discussed previously there were some more routines suggested to manipulate
scattergather buffers, I think, some of them were needed around
crypto code... So, might be a common place reasonable, like
lib/scattergather.c? I am open here.

Tim Schmielau 4e57b68178 [PATCH] fix missing includes
I recently picked up my older work to remove unnecessary #includes of
sched.h, starting from a patch by Dave Jones to not include sched.h
from module.h. This reduces the number of indirect includes of sched.h
by ~300. Another ~400 pointless direct includes can be removed after
this disentangling (patch to follow later).
However, quite a few indirect includes need to be fixed up for this.

In order to feed the patches through -mm with as little disturbance as
possible, I've split out the fixes I accumulated up to now (complete for
i386 and x86_64, more archs to follow later) and post them before the real
patch.  This way this large part of the patch is kept simple with only
adding #includes, and all hunks are independent of each other.  So if any
hunk rejects or gets in the way of other patches, just drop it.  My scripts
will pick it up again in the next round.

James Bottomley b21a413851 [SCSI] add global timeout to the scsi mid-layer
There are certain rogue devices (and the aic7xxx driver) that return
BUSY or QUEUE_FULL forever.  This code will apply a global timeout (of
the total number of retries times the per command timer) to a given
command.  If it is exceeded, the command is completed regardless of its
state.

The patch also removes the unused field in the command: timeout and
timeout_total.

This solves the problem of detecting an endless loop in the mid-layer
because of BUSY/QUEUE_FULL bouncing, but will not recover the device.
In the aic7xxx case, the driver can be recovered by sending a bus reset,
so possibly this should be tied into the error handler?

Christoph Hellwig 8d115f845a [SCSI] remove scsi_cmnd->state
We never look at it except for the old megaraid driver that abuses it
for sending internal commands.  That usage can be fixed easily because
those internal commands are single-threaded by a mutex and we can easily
use a completion there.

c6295cdf65 [PATCH] scsi: remove meaningless scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout field
scsi_cmnd->serial_number_at_timeout doesn't serve any purpose
anymore.  All serial_number == serial_number_at_timeout tests
are always true in abort callbacks.  Kill the field.  Also, as
->pid always equals ->serial_number and ->serial_number
doesn't have any special meaning anymore, update comments
above ->serial_number accordingly.  Once we remove all uses of
this field from all lldd's, this field should go.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
