[SCSI] dh_rdac: Associate HBA and storage in rdac_controller to support partitions in storage

2011-07-28T07:38:47Z

rdac hardware handler assumes that there is one-to-one relation ship between the host and the controller w.r.t lun. IOW, it does not support "multiple storage partitions" within a storage. Example: HBA1 and HBA2 see lun 0 and 1 in storage A (1) HBA3 and HBA4 see lun 0 and 1 in storage A (2) HBA5 and HBA6 see lun 0 and 1 in storage A (3) luns 0 and 1 in (1), (2) and (3) are totally different. But, rdac handler treats the lun 0s (and lun 1s) as the same when sending a mode select to the controller, which is wrong. This patch makes the rdac hardware handler associate HBA and the storage w.r.t lun (and not the host itself). Signed-off-by: Chandra Seetharaman Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] dh_rdac: Use WWID from C8 page instead of Subsystem id from C4 page to identify storage

2011-07-27T10:29:44Z

rdac hardware handler uses "Subsystem Identifier" from C4 inquiry page to uniquely identify a storage. The problem with that is that if any any of the bytes are non-ascii, subsys_id will all be spaces (hex 0x20). This creates lot of problems especially when there are multiple rdac storages are connected to the server. Use "Storage Array Unique Identifier" from C8 inquiry page, which is the world wide unique identifier for the storage array, to uniquely identify the storage.

treewide: fix potentially dangerous trailing ';' in #defined values/expressions

2011-07-21T12:10:00Z

All these are instances of #define NAME value; or #define NAME(params_opt) value; These of course fail to build when used in contexts like if(foo $OP NAME) while(bar $OP NAME) and may silently generate the wrong code in contexts such as foo = NAME + 1; /* foo = value; + 1; */ bar = NAME - 1; /* bar = value; - 1; */ baz = NAME & quux; /* baz = value; & quux; */ Reported on comp.lang.c, Message-ID: Initial analysis of the dangers provided by Keith Thompson in that thread. There are many more instances of more complicated macros having unnecessary trailing semicolons, but this pile seems to be all of the cases of simple values suffering from the problem. (Thus things that are likely to be found in one of the contexts above, more complicated ones aren't.) Signed-off-by: Phil Carmody Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

[SCSI] scsi_dh_alua: Attach to UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS devices

2011-05-01T17:05:40Z

The SCSI ALUA handler currently fails to attach to devices reporting an UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS. But given that an UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS can transition to other states like ACTIVE/OPTIMIZED, ACTIVE/NON-OPTIMIZED, etc. as per SPC4, this ALUA handler behavior should be rectified so as to attach to devices which also report an UNAVAILABLE/OFFLINE AAS.

[SCSI] scsi_dh_rdac : decide whether to send mode select based on operating mode

2011-05-01T15:47:41Z

Based on the operating modes, handler decides whether to send mode select or not. Purpose here is to reduce io-shipping as much as possible whenever there is an option.

[SCSI] scsi_dh_rdac : Add definitions for different RDAC operating modes

2011-05-01T15:45:22Z

This patch adds definitions to support for different operating modes for LSI rdac storage. Currently, rdac support 3 operation modes. 1. RDAC mode(legacy) 2. AVT mode 3. IOSHIP mode These definitions are used while activating the path(rdac_activate).
