  • So the code assumes that the sg list is only a array while in reality
    loopback SGL memory via scsi_cmnd into target-core may be already
    chained. This patch converts ramdisk code to use sg_miter logic from
    scatterlist.h in order to properly support passthrough SGL usage with
    transport_generic_map_mem_to_cmd() via loopback.

    With this patch the bug goes away. However after umount/mount of the
    device my files are gone. So something is still not right. After looking
    at it for a while I decided to rewrite the that part of the code and now
    things do work for me.

  • This patch removes legacy usage of PYX_TRANSPORT_* return codes in a number
    of locations and addresses cases where transport_generic_request_failure()
    was returning the incorrect sense upon CHECK_CONDITION status after the
    v3.1 converson to use errno return codes.

    This includes the conversion of transport_generic_request_failure() to
    process cmd->scsi_sense_reason and handle extra TCM_RESERVATION_CONFLICT
    before calling transport_send_check_condition_and_sense() to queue up
    response status. It also drops PYX_TRANSPORT_OUT_OF_MEMORY_RESOURCES legacy
    usgae, and returns TCM_LOGICAL_UNIT_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE w/ a response
    for these cases.

    transport_generic_allocate_tasks(), transport_generic_new_cmd(), backend
    SCF_SCSI_DATA_SG_IO_CDB ->do_task(), and emulated ->execute_task() have
    all been updated to set se_cmd->scsi_sense_reason and return errno codes
    universally upon failure. This includes cmd->scsi_sense_reason assignment
    in target_core_alua.c, target_core_pr.c and target_core_cdb.c emulation code.

    Finally it updates fabric modules to remove the legacy usage, and for
    TFO->new_cmd_map() callers forwards return values outside of fabric code.
    iscsi-target has also been updated to remove a handful of special cases
    related to the cleanup and signaling QUEUE_FULL handling w/ ft_write_pending()

    (v2: Drop extra SCF_SCSI_CDB_EXCEPTION check during failure from
    transport_generic_new_cmd, and re-add missing task->task_error_status
    assignment in transport_complete_task)

  • Use BUG_ON(x) rather than if(x) BUG();

    The semantic patch that fixes this problem is as follows:
    (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

    //
    @@ identifier x; @@
    -if (x) BUG();
    +BUG_ON(x);

    @@ identifier x; @@
    -if (!x) BUG();
    +BUG_ON(!x);

  • This patch contains the squashed version of forth round series cleanups
    from Andy and Christoph following the post heavy lifting in the preceeding:
    'Eliminate usage of struct se_mem' and 'Make all control CDBs scatter-gather'
    changes. This also includes a conversion of target core and the v3.0
    mainline fabric modules (loopback and tcm_fc) to use pr_debug and the
    CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG infrastructure!

    These have been squashed into this third and final round for v3.1.

    target: Remove ifdeffed code in t_g_process_write
    target: Remove direct ramdisk code
    target: Rename task_sg_num to task_sg_nents
    target: Remove custom debug macros for pr_debug. Use pr_err().

  • This patch converts the target_core_store_dev_enable() -> struct
    se_subsystem_api->create_virtdevice() call to return proper ERR_PTR values
    back up to configfs logic during backend dependent struct se_device ENABLE
    exception conditions.

    Along with the change to target_core_configfs.c, this includes converting IBLOCK,
    FILEIO, pSCSI, and RAMDISK_* backend subsystem plugins to obtain upper level
    PTR_ERR return codes (where available), and return via ERR_PTR during a
    *_create_virtdev() failure.

  • LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
    following feature set:

    High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
    support.

    Advanced SCSI feature set:

    * Persistent Reservations (PRs)
    * Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
    * Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
    * Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
    * Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
    * Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)

    Multiprotocol target plugins

    Storage media independence:

    * Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
    * No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
    * Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.

    Standards compliance:

    * Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
    * Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA

    Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.
