The module.h header was implicitly present everywhere, so files
with no explicit include of the module infrastructure would build
anyway. We are now removing the implicit include, and so we need
to call out the module.h file that we need explicitly.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

Avoid attaching a hardware handler to a device which is
already scheduled for deletion.Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke
Signed-off-by: James Bottomley -
Some device handler types are not tied to the vendor/model
but rather to a specific capability. Eg ALUA is supported
if the 'TPGS' setting in the standard inquiry is set.
This patch implements a 'match' callback for device handler
which supersedes the original vendor/model lookup and
implements the callback for the ALUA handler.Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke

Previously we were using strncmp in order to avoid having to include
whitespace in the devlist, but this means "HSV1000" matches a device
list entry that says "HSV100", which is wrong. This patch changes
scsi_dh.c to use scsi_devinfo's matching functions instead, since they
handle these cases correctly.Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

Currently, when scsi_dh_activate() returns with an error
(e.g. SCSI_DH_NOSYS) the activate_complete callback is not called and
the error is not propagated to DM mpath.When a SCSI device attached to a device handler is deleted, userland
processes currently performing I/O on the device will have their I/O
hang forever.- Set SCSI_DH_NOSYS error when the handler is in the process of being
deleted (e.g. the SCSI device is in a SDEV_CANCEL or SDEV_DEL state).- Set SCSI_DH_DEV_OFFLINED error when device is in SDEV_OFFLINE state.
- Call the activate_complete callback function directly from
scsi_dh_activate if an error has been set (when either the scsi_dh
internal data has already been deleted or is in the process of being
deleted).The patch was tested in an iSCSI environment, RDAC H/W handler and
multipath. In the following reproduction process, dd will I/O hang
forever and the only way to release it will be to reboot the machine:
1) Perform I/O on a multipath device:
dd if=/dev/dm-0 of=/dev/zero bs=8k count=1000000 &
2) Delete all slave SCSI devices contained in the mpath device:
I) In an iSCSI environment, the easiest way to do this is by
stopping iSCSI:
/etc/init.d/iscsi stop
II) Another way to delete the devices is by applying the following
bash scriptlet:
dm_devs=$(ls /sys/block/ | grep dm- | xargs)
for dm_dev in $dm_devs; do
devices=$(ls /sys/block/$dm_dev/slaves)
for device in $devices; do
echo 1 > /sys/block/$device/device/delete
done
doneNOTE: when DM mpath's fail_path uses blk_abort_queue this scsi_dh change
isn't strictly required. However, DM mpath's call to blk_abort_queue
will soon be reverted because it has proven to be unsafe due to a race
(between blk_abort_queue and scsi_request_fn) that can lead to list
corruption. Therefore we cannot rely on blk_abort_queue via fail_path,
but even if we could this scsi_dh change is still preferrable.Signed-off-by: Menny Hamburger

…it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

When we moved the device handler functionality from dm layer to SCSI layer
we dropped the parameter functionality.This path adds an interface to scsi dh layer to set device handler
parameters.Basically, multipath layer need to create a string with all the parameters
and call scsi_dh_set_params() after it called scsi_dh_attach() on a
device.If a device handler provides such an interface it will handle the parameters
as it expects them.Reported-by: Eddie Williams

Problem reported: http://marc.info/?l=dm-devel&m=124585978305866&w=2
scsi_dh does not do a refernce count for attach/detach, and this affects
the way it is supposed to work with multipath when a device is not
in the dev_list of the hardware handler.This patch adds a reference count that counts each attach.

multipath keeps a separate device table which may be
more current than the built-in one.
So we should make sure to always call ->attach whenever
a multipath map with hardware handler is instantiated.
And we should call ->detach on removal, too.[sekharan: update as per comments from agk]

Implement a 'dh_state' sdev attribute for dynamic device handler
manipulation. A read on the attribute will return the name of
the currently attached device handler or 'detached' if no handler
is attached.
The attribute allows the following strings to be written:
- The name of the device handler to be attached if the state is
'detached'.
- 'activate' to trigger path activation if a device handler
is attached.
- 'detach' to detach the currently attached device handler.Signed-off-by: Hannes Reinecke

Instead of having each and every driver implement its own
device table scanning code we should rather implement a common

This allows us also to implement a general notifier chain

Some of the storage devices (that can be accessed through multiple paths),
do need some special handling for
1. Activating the passive path of the storage access.
2. Decode and handle the special sense codes returned by the devices.
3. Handle the I/Os being sent to the passive path, especially
during the device probe time.
when accessed through multiple paths.As of today this special device handling is done at the dm-multipath
layer using dm-handlers. That works well for (1); for (2) to be handled
at dm layer, scsi sense information need to be exported from SCSI to dm-layer,
which is not very attractive; (3) cannot be done at all at the dm layer.Device handler has been moved to SCSI mainly to handle (2) and (3) properly.
