This is a trivial addition to the SG API that can receive kernel
pointers. It is only used by the out-of-tree test module. So
it's immediate need is questionable. For maintenance ease it might
just get in, as it's very small.John.
do you need this in the Kernel, or is it only for osd_ktest.ko?Signed-off-by: John A. Chandy

This patch adds the Scatter-Gather (sg) API to libosd.
Scatter-gather enables a write/read of multiple none-contiguous
areas of an object, in a single call. The extents may overlap
and/or be in any order.The Scatter-Gather list is sent to the target in what is called
a "cdb continuation segment". This is yet another possible segment
in the osd-out-buffer. It is unlike all other segments in that it
sits before the actual "data" segment (which until now was always
first), and that it is signed by itself and not part of the data
buffer. This is because the cdb-continuation-segment is considered
a spill-over of the CDB data, and is therefor signed under
OSD_SEC_CAPKEY and higher.TODO: A new osd_finalize_request_ex version should be supplied so
the @caps received on the network also contains a size parameter
and can be spilled over into the "cdb continuation segment".Thanks to John Chandy for the original
code, and investigations. And the implementation of SG support
in the osd-target.Original-coded-by: John Chandy

So libosd has decided to sacrifice some code simplicity for the sake of
a clean API. One of these things is the possibility for users to call
osd_end_request, in any condition at any state. This opens up some
problems with calling blk_put_request when out-side of the completion
callback but calling __blk_put_request when detecting a from-completion
state.The current hack was working just fine until exofs decided to operate on
all devices in parallel and wait for the sum of the requests, before
deallocating all osd-requests at once. There are two new possible cases
1. All request in a group are deallocated as part of the last request's
async-done, request_queue is locked.
2. All request in a group where executed asynchronously, but
de-allocation was delayed to after the async-done, in the context of
another thread. Async execution but request_queue is not locked.The solution I chose was to separate the deallocation of the osd_request
which has the information users need, from the deallocation of the
internal(2) requests which impose the locking problem. The internal
block-requests are freed unconditionally inside the async-done-callback,
when we know the queue is always locked. If at osd_end_request time we
still have a bock-request, then we know it did not come from within an
async-done-callback and we can call the regular blk_put_request.The internal requests were used for carrying error information after
execution. This information is now copied to osd_request members for
later analysis by user code.The external API and behaviour was unchanged, except now it really
supports what was previously advertised.Reported-by: Vineet Agarwal

Administer some love to the osd_req_decode_sense function
* Fix a bad bug with osd_req_decode_sense(). If there was no scsi
residual, .i.e the request never reached the target, then all the
osd_sense_info members where garbage.* Add grossly missing in/out_resid to osd_sense_info and fill them in
properly.* Define an osd_err_priority enum which divides the possible errors into
7 categories in ascending severity. Each category is also assigned a
Linux return code translation.Analyze the different osd/scsi/block returned errors and set the
proper osd_err_priority and Linux return code accordingly.* extra check a few situations so not to get stuck with inconsistent
error view. Example an empty residual with an error code, and other
places ...Lots of libosd's osd_req_decode_sense clients had this logic in some
form or another. Consolidate all these into one place that should
actually know about osd returns. Thous translating it to a more
abstract error.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

Define an osd_dev_info structure that Uniquely identifies an OSD
device lun on the network. The identification is built from unique
target attributes and is the same for all network/SAN machines.osduld_info_lookup() - NEW
New API that will lookup an osd_dev by its osd_dev_info.
This is used by pNFS-objects for cross network global device
identification. And by exofs multy-device support, the device
info is specified in the on-disk exofs device table.osduld_device_info() - NEW
Given an osd_dev handle returns its associated osd_dev_info.
The ULD fetches this information at startup and hangs it on
each OSD device. (This is a fast operation that can be called
at any condition)osduld_device_same() - NEW
With a given osd_dev at one hand and an osd_dev_info
at another, we would like to know if they are the same
device.
Two osd_dev handles can be checked by:
osduld_device_same(od1, osduld_device_info(od2));osd_auto_detect_ver() - REVISED
Now returns an osd_dev_info structure. Is only called once
by ULD as before. See added comments for how to use.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

The true logic of this patch will be clear in the next patch where we
use the class_find_device() API. When doing so the use of an internal
kref leaves us a narrow window where a find is started while the actual
object can go away. Using the device's kobj reference solves this
problem because now the same kref is used for both operations. (Remove
and find)Core changes
* Embed a struct device in uld_ structure and use device_register
instead of devie_create. Set __remove to be the device release
function.
* __uld_get/put is just get_/put_device. Now every thing is accounted
for on the device object. Internal kref is removed.
* At __remove() we can safely de-allocate the uld_ structure. (The
function has moved to avoid forward declaration)Some cleanups
* Use class register/unregister is cleaner for this driver now.
* cdev ref-counting games are no longer necessaryI have incremented the device version string in case of new bugs.
Note: Previous bugfix of taking the reference around fput() still
applies.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

This patch was inspired by Al Viro, for simplifying and fixing the
retrieval of osd-devices by in-kernel users, eg: file systems.
In-Kernel users, now, go through the same path user-mode does by
opening a file on the osd char-device and though holding a reference
to both the device and the Module.A file pointer was added to the osd_dev structure which is now
allocated for each user. The internal osd_dev is no longer exposed
outside of the uld. I wanted to do that for a long time so each
libosd user can have his own defaults on the device.The API is left the same, so user code need not change.
It is no longer needed to open/close a file handle on the osd
char-device from user-mode, before mounting an exofs on it.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

For supporting of chained-bios we can not inspect the first
bio only, as before. Caller shall pass the total length of the
request, ie. sum_bytes(bio-chain).Also since the bio might be a chain we don't set it's direction
on behalf of it's callers. The bio direction should be properly
set prior to this call. So fix a couple of write users that now
need to set the bio direction properly[In this patch I change both library code and user sites at
exofs, to make it easy on integration. It should be submitted
via James's scsi-misc tree.]Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

Implementation of the osd_req_decode_sense() API. Can be called by
library users to decode what failed in command executions.Add SCSI_OSD_DPRINT_SENSE Kconfig variable. Possible values are:
0 - Do not print any errors to messages file
1 - (Default) Print only decoded errors that are not recoverable.
Recoverable errors are those that the target has complied with
the request but with a warning. For example read passed end of
object will return zeros after the last valid byte.
2- Print all errors.Signed-off-by: Boaz Harrosh

Kernel clients like exofs can retrieve struct osd_dev(s)
by means of below API.+ osduld_path_lookup() - given a path (e.g "/dev/osd0") locks and
returns the corresponding struct osd_dev, which is then needed
for subsequent libosd use.+ osduld_put_device() - free up use of an osd_dev.
Devices can be shared by multiple clients. The osd_uld_device's
life time is governed by an embedded kref structure.The osd_uld_device holds an extra reference to both it's
char-device and it's scsi_device, and will release these just
before the final deallocation.There are three possible lock sources of the osd_uld_device
1. First and for most is the probe() function called by
scsi-ml upon a successful login into a target. Released in release()
when logout.
2. Second by user-mode file handles opened on the char-dev.
3. Third is here by Kernel users.
All three locks must be removed before the osd_uld_device is freed.The MODULE has three lock sources as well:
1. scsi-ml at probe() time, removed after release(). (login/logout)
2. The user-mode file handles open/close.
3. Import symbols by client modules like exofs.TODO:
This API is not enough for the pNFS-objects LD. A more versatile
API will be needed. Proposed API could be:
