Bryant G. Ly 88a678bbc3 ibmvscsis: Initial commit of IBM VSCSI Tgt Driver
This driver is a pick up of the old IBM VIO scsi Target Driver
that was started by Nick and Fujita 2-4 years ago.
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/90119

The driver provides a virtual SCSI device on IBM Power Servers.

This patch contains the fifth version for an initial merge of the
tcm ibmvscsis driver. More information on this driver and config
can be found:

Adds support for a new VIOS feature that allows ibmvfc to

Brian King d2fab5cf39 [SCSI] ibmvfc: Fix terminate_rport_io
The ibmvfc driver was incorrectly obtaining a scsi_target pointer
from an fc_rport. The way it is coded ensures that ibmvfc's
terminate_rport_io handler does absolutely nothing. Fix this up
to iterate through affected devices differently, sending cancel
and abort task set as appropriate. Without this patch,

Brian King 73ee5d8672 [SCSI] ibmvfc: Fix soft lockup on resume
This fixes a softlockup seen on resume. During resume, the CRQ
must be reenabled. However, the H_ENABLE_CRQ hcall used to do
this may return H_BUSY or H_LONG_BUSY. When this happens, the
caller is expected to retry later. Normally the H_ENABLE_CRQ
succeeds relatively soon. However, we have seen cases where
this can take long enough to see softlockup warnings.
This patch changes a simple loop, which was causing the
softlockup, to a loop at task level which sleeps between
retries rather than simply spinning.

The virtual I/O server controlling the NPIV adapter associated with
a virtual fibre channel adapter can send a HALT event to the client.
When this occurs, the client can no longer send commands until a RESUME
is received. By adding support for flush on halt, we will get all of
our outstanding commands flushed back before the Virtual I/O server
enters the halt state, eliminating potential command timeouts for
outstanding commands which might occur if we did not support this feature.

Brian King 7d0e462247 [SCSI] ibmvfc: Reduce error logging noise
The ibmvfc driver currently logs errors during discovery for several
transient fabric errors, which generally get retried. If retries
do not work, we see multiple errors in the log. If retries do work,
we see errors in the log which may be confusing since the retry worked.
This patch enhances the discovery time error logging to only log errors
for command failures during discovery if all allowed retries have been
used up. The existing behavior of logging all failures can be restored
by setting the hosts log_level to a value of 3 or greater.

This fixes a problem which can surface as occasional command timeouts.
No commands were actually timing out, but due to accessing cached data

times, depending on the error received. If the retries are
unsuccessful such that the discovery thread gives up on discovery to
that target, the target ends up in a state where, if SCSI core had
previously known about the device, the host will get unblocked but the
host will not be logged into the target, causing any commands sent to
the target to fail. This patch fixes this so that if this occurs, the
target is deleted such that the normal dev_loss processing can occur
instead.

Brian King ad8dcffaf9 [SCSI] ibmvfc: Error handling fixes
Due to an ambiguity in the VIOS VFC interface specification,
abort/cancel handling is not done correctly and can result in double
completion of commands. In order to cancel all outstanding commands to
a device, a cancel must be sent, followed by an abort task set. After
the responses are received for these commands, there may still be
commands outstanding, in the process of getting flushed back, in which
case, we need to wait for them. This patch removes the assumption that
if the abort and the cancel both complete successfully that the device
queue has been flushed and waits for all the responses to come back.

Brian King 596891acd7 [SCSI] ibmvfc: Fix log level filtering
The ibmvfc log level filtering logic was reversed. The log_level scsi
host parameter should result in more verbose logs when log_level is
larger, not smaller.

 All of you are on notice this has happened, driver trees will now
 need to be rebased]

Brian King 072b91f9c6 [SCSI] ibmvfc: IBM Power Virtual Fibre Channel Adapter Client Driver
This patch adds a new device driver to support the Virtual Fibre Channel
interface on IBM Power based servers. The Virtual I/O Server on IBM Power
servers utilizes N-Port ID Virtualization to export a Virtual Fibre Channel
adapter to the client. This driver is the client device driver.
