2008-04-19SCSI: convert struct class_device to struct deviceTony Jones1-36/+37
It's big, but there doesn't seem to be a way to split it up smaller...

2008-04-07[SCSI] transport_class: BUG if we can't release the attribute containerJames Bottomley1-1/+1
Every current transport class calls transport_container_release but ignores the return value. This is catastrophic if it returns an error because the containers are part of a global list and the next action of almost every transport class is to free the memory used by the container. Fix this by making transport_container_release a void, but making it BUG if attribute_container_release returns an error ... this catches the root cause of a system panic much earlier. If we don't do this, we get an eventual BUG when the attribute container list notices the corruption caused by the freed memory it's still referencing. Also made attribute_container_release __must_check as a reminder. Cc: Greg KH <greg@kroah.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

2006-01-12[SCSI] raid_class.c - adding RAID10 and RAID10 definesMoore, Eric1-0/+2
Adding defines for RAID10 and RAID50 levels, in preparation of adding RAID Transport support in the mpt fusion drivers. (BTW: IME is RAID10, and IM is RAID1). Signed-off-by: Eric Moore <Eric.Moore@lsil.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
2005-12-13[SCSI] Mark some core scsi data structures constArjan van de Ven1-1/+1
patch below marks a few scsi core datastructures as const, so that they end up in the .rodata section and don't cacheline share with things that get dirtied Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>

2005-11-07[PATCH] fix remaining missing includesTim Schmielau1-0/+2
Fix more include file problems that surfaced since I submitted the previous fix-missing-includes.patch. This should now allow not to include sched.h from module.h, which is done by a followup patch.

2005-11-06[SCSI] raid class updateJames Bottomley1-24/+72
- Update raid class to use nested classes for raid components (this will allow us to move to a component control model now) - Make the raid level an enumeration rather than and int. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
2005-08-30[SCSI] embryonic RAID classJames Bottomley1-0/+250
The idea behind a RAID class is to provide a uniform interface to all RAID subsystems (both hardware and software) in the kernel. To do that, I've made this class a transport class that's entirely subsystem independent (although the matching routines have to match per subsystem, as you'll see looking at the code). I put it in the scsi subdirectory purely because I needed somewhere to play with it, but it's not a scsi specific module. I used a fusion raid card as the test bed for this; with that kind of card, this is the type of class output you get: jejb@titanic> ls -l /sys/class/raid_devices/20\:0\:0\:0/ total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 16 17:21 component-0 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:04.0/host20/target20:1:0/20:1:0:0/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 16 17:21 component-1 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:04.0/host20/target20:1:1/20:1:1:0/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 16 17:21 device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:04.0/host20/target20:0:0/20:0:0:0/ -r--r--r-- 1 root root 16384 Aug 16 17:21 level -r--r--r-- 1 root root 16384 Aug 16 17:21 resync -r--r--r-- 1 root root 16384 Aug 16 17:21 state So it's really simple: for a SCSI device representing a hardware raid, it shows the raid level, the array state, the resync % complete (if the state is resyncing) and the underlying components of the RAID (these are exposed in fusion on the virtual channel 1). As you can see, this type of information can be exported by almost anything, including software raid. The more difficult trick, of course, is going to be getting it to perform configuration type actions with writable attributes. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
