  • 79855d178   libsas: remove task_collector mode ... Browse Code »

    The task_collector mode (or "latency_injector", (C) Dan Willians) is an
    optional I/O path in libsas that queues up scsi commands instead of
    directly sending it to the hardware. It generall increases latencies
    to in the optiomal case slightly reduce mmio traffic to the hardware.

    Only the obsolete aic94xx driver and the mvsas driver allowed to use
    it without recompiling the kernel, and most drivers didn't support it
    at all.

    Remove the giant blob of code to allow better optimizations for scsi-mq
    in the future.

  • 735f7d2fe   [SCSI] libsas: fix domain_device leak ... Browse Code »

    Arrange for the deallocation of a struct domain_device object when it no
    longer has:
    1/ any children
    2/ references by any scsi_targets
    3/ references by a lldd

    The comment about domain_device lifetime in
    Documentation/scsi/libsas.txt is stale as it appears mainline never had
    a version of a struct domain_device that was registered as a kobject.
    We now manage domain_device reference counts on behalf of external
    agents.

    o aic94xx: remove various inline functions
    o aic94xx: use bitops
    o aic94xx: remove queue comment
    o aic94xx: remove sas_common.c
    o aic94xx: sas remove depot's
    o aic94xx: use available list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse()
    o aic94xx: sas header file merge

    James Bottomley:
    o aic94xx: fix TF_TMF_NO_CTX processing
    o aic94xx: convert to request_firmware interface
    o aic94xx: fix hotplug/unplug
    o aic94xx: add link error counts to the expander phys
    o aic94xx: add transport class phy reset capability
    o aic94xx: remove local_attached flag

    o aic94xx: make use of the new sas_port
    o rename sas_port to asd_sas_port
    o Fix for eh_strategy_handler move
    o aic94xx: move entirely over to correct transport class formulation

    o sas: remove event thread
    o minor warning cleanups
    o remove last vestiges of id mapping arrays
    o Further updates
