2011-05-17scsi: remove performance regression due to async queue runJens Axboe
Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down, but should be safe. Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests. Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this: scsi_request_fn() scsi_dispatch_cmd() scsi_queue_insert() __scsi_queue_insert() scsi_run_queue() scsi_request_fn() ... potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen. This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion, since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out of line. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>
2011-05-03[SCSI] fix oops in scsi_run_queue()James Bottomley
The recent commit closing the race window in device teardown: commit 86cbfb5607d4b81b1a993ff689bbd2addd5d3a9b Author: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de> Date: Fri Apr 22 10:39:59 2011 -0500 [SCSI] put stricter guards on queue dead checks is causing a potential NULL deref in scsi_run_queue() because the q->queuedata may already be NULL by the time this function is called. Since we shouldn't be running a queue that is being torn down, simply add a NULL check in scsi_run_queue() to forestall this.

2011-04-19block: get rid of QUEUE_FLAG_REENTERJens Axboe
We are currently using this flag to check whether it's safe to call into ->request_fn(). If it is set, we punt to kblockd. But we get a lot of false positives and excessive punts to kblockd, which hurts performance. The only real abuser of this infrastructure is SCSI. So export the async queue run and convert SCSI over to use that. There's room for improvement in that SCSI need not always use the async call, but this fixes our performance issue and they can fix that up in due time.

Instead of overloading __blk_run_queue to force an offload to kblockd add a new blk_run_queue_async helper to do it explicitly. I've kept the blk_queue_stopped check for now, but I suspect it's not needed as the check we do when the workqueue items runs should be enough.

2011-03-14[SCSI] sd: Logical Block Provisioning updateMartin K. Petersen
SBC3r26 contains many changes to the Logical Block Provisioning interfaces (formerly known as Thin Provisioning ditto). This patch implements support for both the old and new schemes using the same heuristic as before (whether the LBP VPD page is present). The new code also allows the provisioning mode (i.e. choice of command) to be overridden on a per-device basis via sysfs. Two additional modes are supported in this version: - WRITE SAME(10) with the UNMAP bit set - WRITE SAME(10) without the UNMAP bit set. This allows us to support devices that predate the TP/LBP enhancements in SBC3 and which work by way zero-detection Switching between modes has been consolidated in a helper function that also updates the block layer topology according to the limitations of the chosen command. I experimented with trying WRITE SAME(16) if UNMAP fails, WRITE SAME(10) if WRITE SAME(16) fails, etc. but found several devices that got cranky. So for now we'll disable discard if one of the commands fail. The user still has the option of selecting a different mode in sysfs. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

Instead of just passing 'EIO' for any I/O error we should be notifying the upper layers with more details about the cause of this error. Update the possible I/O errors to: - ENOLINK: Link failure between host and target - EIO: Retryable I/O error - EREMOTEIO: Non-retryable I/O error - EBADE: I/O error restricted to the I_T_L nexus 'Retryable' in this context means that an I/O error _might_ be restricted to the I_T_L nexus (vulgo: path), so retrying on another nexus / path might succeed. 'Non-retryable' in general refers to a target failure, so this error will always be generated regardless of the I_T_L nexus it was send on. I/O errors restricted to the I_T_L nexus might be retried on another nexus / path, but they should _not_ be queued if no paths are available.

2010-12-17block: Deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use queue_limits insteadMartin K. Petersen
When stacking devices, a request_queue is not always available. This forced us to have a no_cluster flag in the queue_limits that could be used as a carrier until the request_queue had been set up for a metadevice. There were several problems with that approach. First of all it was up to the stacking device to remember to set queue flag after stacking had completed. Also, the queue flag and the queue limits had to be kept in sync at all times. We got that wrong, which could lead to us issuing commands that went beyond the max scatterlist limit set by the driver. The proper fix is to avoid having two flags for tracking the same thing. We deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use the queue limit directly in the block layer merging functions. The queue_limit 'no_cluster' is turned into 'cluster' to avoid double negatives and to ease stacking. Clustering defaults to being enabled as before. The queue flag logic is removed from the stacking function, and explicitly setting the cluster flag is no longer necessary in DM and MD.

2010-12-16scsi: replace sr_test_unit_ready() with scsi_test_unit_ready()Tejun Heo
The usage of TUR has been confusing involving several different commits updating different parts over time. Currently, the only differences between scsi_test_unit_ready() and sr_test_unit_ready() are, * scsi_test_unit_ready() also sets sdev->changed on NOT_READY. * scsi_test_unit_ready() returns 0 if TUR ended with UNIT_ATTENTION or NOT_READY. Due to the above two differences, sr is using its own sr_test_unit_ready(), but sd - the sole user of the above extra handling - doesn't even need them. Where scsi_test_unit_ready() is used in sd_media_changed(), the code is looking for device ready w/ media present state which is true iff TUR succeeds w/o sense data or UA, and when the device is not ready for whatever reason sd_media_changed() explicitly marks media as missing so there's no reason to set sdev->changed automatically from scsi_test_unit_ready() on NOT_READY. Drop both special handlings from scsi_test_unit_ready(), which makes it equivalant to sr_test_unit_ready(), and replace sr_test_unit_ready() with scsi_test_unit_ready(). Also, drop the unnecessary explicit NOT_READY check from sd_media_changed(). Checking return value is enough for testing device readiness.

2010-12-09[SCSI] Eliminate error handler overload of the SCSI serial numberJames Bottomley
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. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>

Further to the lsml thread titled: "does scsi_io_completion need to dump sense data for ata pass through (ck_cond = 1) ?" This is a patch to skip logging when the sense data is associated with a SENSE_KEY of "RECOVERED_ERROR" and the additional sense code is "ATA PASS-THROUGH INFORMATION AVAILABLE". This only occurs with the SAT ATA PASS-THROUGH commands when CK_COND=1 (in the cdb). It indicates that the sense data contains ATA registers. Smartmontools uses such commands on ATA disks connected via SAT.

2010-01-17[SCSI] scsi_lib: Fix bug in completion of bidi commandsBoaz Harrosh
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.

2009-10-29[SCSI] fix propogation of integrity errorsMike Christie
When the Integrity check is done in scsi_io_completion it will set error to -EILSEQ. However, at this point error is no longer used, and blk_end_request_err has -EIO hardcoded. It looks like there was just porting mistake with this patch http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=3e695f89c5debb735e4ff051e9e58d8fb4e95110 and we meant to send error upwards, so this patch changes the hard coded EIO to the error variable.

2009-09-11scsi,block: update SCSI to handle mixed merge failuresTejun Heo
Update scsi_io_completion() such that it only fails requests till the next error boundary and retry the leftover. This enables block layer to merge requests with different failfast settings and still behave correctly on errors. Allow merge of requests of different failfast settings. As SCSI is currently the only subsystem which follows failfast status, there's no need to worry about other block drivers for now.

2009-05-23[SCSI] limit state transitions in scsi_internal_device_unblockTakahiro Yasui
scsi timeout on two or more devices may cause extremely long execution time for user applications because SDEV_OFFLINE state is changed to SDEV_RUNNING state during scsi error recovery procedures triggered by a bus reset or a host reset of scsi LLD, and scsi timeout can happens on the same devices many times. This happens because scsi_internal_device_unblock() changes device's state to SDEV_RUNNING even if a device in other states than SDEV_BLOCK, while the following two transitions are required in this function. SDEV_BLOCK -> SDEV_RUNNING SDEV_CREATED_BLOCK -> SDEV_CREATED Otherwise, it returns -EINVAL.

2009-05-11block: implement and enforce request peek/start/fetchTejun Heo
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.
