[SCSI] scsi_debug: support REPORT TARGET PORT GROUPS

2006-10-25T22:14:13Z

This patch adds support for REPORT TARGET PORT GROUPS. This is used eg for the multipathing priority callout to determine the path priority. With this patch multipath-tools can use the existing mpath_prio_alua callout to exercise the path priority grouping.

[SCSI] libiscsi: fix oops in connection create failure path

2006-10-25T22:13:53Z

If connection creation fails we end up calling list_del on a invalid struct. This then causes an oops. We are not acutally using the lists (old MCS code we thought might be useful elsewhere) so this patch just removes that code. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] iscsi class: fix slab corruption during restart

2006-10-25T22:13:48Z

The transport class recv mempools are causing slab corruption. We could hack around netlink's lack of mempool support like dm, but it is just too ulgy (dm's hack is ugly enough :) when you need to support broadcast. This patch removes the recv pools. We have not used them even when we were allocting 20 MB per session and the system only had 64 MBs. And we have no pools on the send side and have been ok there. When Peter's work gets merged we can use that since the network guys are in favor of that approach and are not going to add mempools everywhere.

[PATCH] helper function for retrieving scsi_cmd given host based block layer tag

2006-10-04T17:32:09Z

This was necessitated by the need for a function to get back to a scsi_cmnd, when an hba the posts its (corresponding) completion interrupt with a block layer tag as its reference. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie Signed-off-by: David Somayajulu Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

[PATCH] scsi: device_reprobe() can fail

[PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6]

2006-09-30T18:52:31Z

Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require the block layer to be present. This patch does the following: (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev support. (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls an item that uses the block layer. This includes: (*) Block I/O tracing. (*) Disk partition code. (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS. (*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities - such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this. (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM drivers. (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL. (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book. (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is, however, still used in places, and so is still available. (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and parts of linux/fs.h. (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK is not enabled. (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set: (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening). (*) Makes some /proc changes: (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs. (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified. (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2. (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so). (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen. Signed-Off-By: David Howells Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe

[PATCH] Split struct request ->flags into two parts

2006-09-30T18:23:37Z

Right now ->flags is a bit of a mess: some are request types, and others are just modifiers. Clean this up by splitting it into ->cmd_type and ->cmd_flags. This allows introduction of generic Linux block message types, useful for sending generic Linux commands to block devices. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
