2012-02-19[SCSI] fix the new host byte settings (DID_TARGET_FAILURE and DID_NEXUS_FAILURE)Moger, Babu1-2/+2
This patch fixes the host byte settings DID_TARGET_FAILURE and DID_NEXUS_FAILURE. The function __scsi_error_from_host_byte, tries to reset the host byte to DID_OK. But that does not happen because of the OR operation. Here is the flow. scsi_softirq_done-> scsi_decide_disposition -> __scsi_error_from_host_byte Let's take an example with DID_NEXUS_FAILURE. In scsi_decide_disposition, result will be set as DID_NEXUS_FAILURE (=0x11). Then in __scsi_error_from_host_byte, when we do OR with DID_OK. Purpose is to reset it back to DID_OK. But that does not happen. This patch fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Babu Moger <babu.moger@netapp.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com>
2012-01-16[SCSI] don't change sdev starvation list order without request dispatchedShaohua Li1-6/+1
The sdev is deleted from starved list and then try to dispatch from this device. It's quite possible the sdev can't eventually dispatch a request, then the sdev will be in starved list tail. This isn't fair. There are two cases here: 1. unplug path. scsi_request_fn() calls to scsi_target_queue_ready(), then the dev is removed from starved list, but quite possible host queue isn't ready, the dev is moved to starved list without dispatching any request. 2. scsi_run_queue path. It deletes the dev from starved list first (both global and local starved lists), then handles the dev. Then we could have the same process like case 1. This patch fixes the first case. Case 2 isn't fixed, because there is a rare case scsi_run_queue finds host isn't busy but scsi_request_fn finds host is busy (other CPU is faster to get host queue depth). Not deleting the dev from starved list in scsi_run_queue will keep scsi_run_queue looping (though this is very rare case, because host will become busy). Fortunately fixing case 1 already gives big improvement for starvation in my test. In a 12 disk JBOD setup, running file creation under EXT4, this gives 12% more throughput.

2011-11-09[SCSI] Silencing 'killing requests for dead queue'Hannes Reinecke1-1/+2
When we tear down a device we try to flush all outstanding commands in scsi_free_queue(). However the check in scsi_request_fn() is imperfect as it only signals that we _might start_ aborting commands, not that we've actually aborted some. So move the printk inside the scsi_kill_request function, this will also give us a hint about which commands are aborted.

Make sure that SCSI device removal via scsi_remove_host() does finish all pending SCSI commands. Currently that's not the case and hence removal of a SCSI host during I/O can cause a deadlock.

2011-07-27[SCSI] scsi_lib: pause between error retriesJames Smart1-0/+1
During cable pull tests on our 16G FC adapter, we are seeing errors, typically reads to close targets, which fail due to CRC or framing errors caused by the cable being pull (return status DID_ERROR). The adapter detects the error on one of the first frames received, marks the FC exchange as dead (further frames go to bit bucket) and signals the host of the error. This action is so quick, and coupled with fast host CPUs, creates a scenario in which the midlayer sees the failure and retries the io almost immediately. We've seen link traces with the retry on the link while the original i/o is still being processed by the target. We're also seeing the time window for the "link to pull-apart" and the physical interface to report disconnected to be in the few millisecond range. Which means, we're encountering scenarios where the full retry count is exhausted (all with error) by the midlayer before the link disconnect state is detected. We looked at 8G FC behavior and occasionally see the same behavior, but as the link was slower, it rarely could exhaust all retries before the link reported disconnect. What is needed is a slight delay between io retries due to DID_ERROR to cover this error. It is inappropriate to put this delay in the driver, as the error is indistinguishable from other link-related errors, nor does the driver track whether the io is a retry or not. This is also easier than tracking between-io-error bursts that are seen in this scenario. The patch below updates the retry path so that it inserts a delay as if the target was busy. The busy delay is on the order of 6ms. This delay is sufficient to ensure the link down condition is reported before the retry count is exhausted (at most 1 retry is seen).

2011-07-21[SCSI] fix crash in scsi_dispatch_cmd()James Bottomley1-0/+2
USB surprise removal of sr is triggering an oops in scsi_dispatch_command(). What seems to be happening is that USB is hanging on to a queue reference until the last close of the upper device, so the crash is caused by surprise remove of a mounted CD followed by attempted unmount. The problem is that USB doesn't issue its final commands as part of the SCSI teardown path, but on last close when the block queue is long gone. The long term fix is probably to make sr do the teardown in the same way as sd (so remove all the lower bits on ejection, but keep the upper disk alive until last close of user space). However, the current oops can be simply fixed by not allowing any commands to be sent to a dead queue. Cc: stable@kernel.org Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com>

2011-05-17scsi: remove performance regression due to async queue runJens Axboe1-4/+16
Commit c21e6beb removed our queue request_fn re-enter protection, and defaulted to always running the queues from kblockd to be safe. This was a known potential slow down, but should be safe. Unfortunately this is causing big performance regressions for some, so we need to improve this logic. Looking into the details of the re-enter, the real issue is on requeue of requests. Requeue of requests upon seeing a BUSY condition from the device ends up re-running the queue, causing traces like this: scsi_request_fn() scsi_dispatch_cmd() scsi_queue_insert() __scsi_queue_insert() scsi_run_queue() scsi_request_fn() ... potentially causing the issue we want to avoid. So special case the requeue re-run of the queue, but improve it to offload the entire run of local queue and starved queue from a single workqueue callback. This is a lot better than potentially kicking off a workqueue run for each device seen. This also fixes the issue of the local device going into recursion, since the above mentioned commit never moved that queue run out of line. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jaxboe@fusionio.com>

2011-04-19block: get rid of QUEUE_FLAG_REENTERJens Axboe1-16/+1
We are currently using this flag to check whether it's safe to call into ->request_fn(). If it is set, we punt to kblockd. But we get a lot of false positives and excessive punts to kblockd, which hurts performance. The only real abuser of this infrastructure is SCSI. So export the async queue run and convert SCSI over to use that. There's room for improvement in that SCSI need not always use the async call, but this fixes our performance issue and they can fix that up in due time.

2011-03-14[SCSI] sd: Logical Block Provisioning updateMartin K. Petersen1-0/+7
SBC3r26 contains many changes to the Logical Block Provisioning interfaces (formerly known as Thin Provisioning ditto). This patch implements support for both the old and new schemes using the same heuristic as before (whether the LBP VPD page is present). The new code also allows the provisioning mode (i.e. choice of command) to be overridden on a per-device basis via sysfs. Two additional modes are supported in this version: - WRITE SAME(10) with the UNMAP bit set - WRITE SAME(10) without the UNMAP bit set. This allows us to support devices that predate the TP/LBP enhancements in SBC3 and which work by way zero-detection Switching between modes has been consolidated in a helper function that also updates the block layer topology according to the limitations of the chosen command. I experimented with trying WRITE SAME(16) if UNMAP fails, WRITE SAME(10) if WRITE SAME(16) fails, etc. but found several devices that got cranky. So for now we'll disable discard if one of the commands fail. The user still has the option of selecting a different mode in sysfs. Signed-off-by: Martin K.

'Non-retryable' in general refers to a target failure, so this error will always be generated regardless of the I_T_L nexus it was send on.

2010-12-17block: Deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use queue_limits insteadMartin K. Petersen1-2/+1
When stacking devices, a request_queue is not always available. This forced us to have a no_cluster flag in the queue_limits that could be used as a carrier until the request_queue had been set up for a metadevice. There were several problems with that approach. First of all it was up to the stacking device to remember to set queue flag after stacking had completed. Also, the queue flag and the queue limits had to be kept in sync at all times. We got that wrong, which could lead to us issuing commands that went beyond the max scatterlist limit set by the driver. The proper fix is to avoid having two flags for tracking the same thing. We deprecate QUEUE_FLAG_CLUSTER and use the queue limit directly in the block layer merging functions. The queue_limit 'no_cluster' is turned into 'cluster' to avoid double negatives and to ease stacking. Clustering defaults to being enabled as before. The queue flag logic is removed from the stacking function, and explicitly setting the cluster flag is no longer necessary in DM and MD.

2010-12-16scsi: replace sr_test_unit_ready() with scsi_test_unit_ready()Tejun Heo1-12/+1
The usage of TUR has been confusing involving several different commits updating different parts over time. Currently, the only differences between scsi_test_unit_ready() and sr_test_unit_ready() are, * scsi_test_unit_ready() also sets sdev->changed on NOT_READY. * scsi_test_unit_ready() returns 0 if TUR ended with UNIT_ATTENTION or NOT_READY. Due to the above two differences, sr is using its own sr_test_unit_ready(), but sd - the sole user of the above extra handling - doesn't even need them. Where scsi_test_unit_ready() is used in sd_media_changed(), the code is looking for device ready w/ media present state which is true iff TUR succeeds w/o sense data or UA, and when the device is not ready for whatever reason sd_media_changed() explicitly marks media as missing so there's no reason to set sdev->changed automatically from scsi_test_unit_ready() on NOT_READY. Drop both special handlings from scsi_test_unit_ready(), which makes it equivalant to sr_test_unit_ready(), and replace sr_test_unit_ready() with scsi_test_unit_ready(). Also, drop the unnecessary explicit NOT_READY check from sd_media_changed(). Checking return value is enough for testing device readiness.

2010-12-09[SCSI] Eliminate error handler overload of the SCSI serial numberJames Bottomley1-5/+0
The error handler is using the test cmd->serial_number == 0 in the abort routines to signal that the command to be aborted has already completed normally. This design was to close a race window in the original error handler where a command could go through the normal completion routines after it timed out but before error handling was started. Mike Anderson pointed out that when we converted our timeout and softirq completions, we picked up atomicity here because the block layer now mediates this with the REQ_ATOM_COMPLETE flag and guarantees that *either* the command times out or our done routine is called, but ensures we can't get both occurring. That makes the serial number zero check redundant and it can be removed. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
2010-10-25[SCSI] Fix regressions in scsi_internal_device_blockMike Christie1-1/+2
Deleting a SCSI device on a blocked fc_remote_port (before fast_io_fail_tmo fires) results in a hanging thread: STACK: 0 schedule+1108 [0x5cac48] 1 schedule_timeout+528 [0x5cb7fc] 2 wait_for_common+266 [0x5ca6be] 3 blk_execute_rq+160 [0x354054] 4 scsi_execute+324 [0x3b7ef4] 5 scsi_execute_req+162 [0x3b80ca] 6 sd_sync_cache+138 [0x3cf662] 7 sd_shutdown+138 [0x3cf91a] 8 sd_remove+112 [0x3cfe4c] 9 __device_release_driver+124 [0x3a08b8] 10 device_release_driver+60 [0x3a0a5c] 11 bus_remove_device+266 [0x39fa76] 12 device_del+340 [0x39d818] 13 __scsi_remove_device+204 [0x3bcc48] 14 scsi_remove_device+66 [0x3bcc8e] 15 sysfs_schedule_callback_work+50 [0x260d66] 16 worker_thread+622 [0x162326] 17 kthread+160 [0x1680b0] 18 kernel_thread_starter+6 [0x10aaea] During the delete, the SCSI device is in moved to SDEV_CANCEL.

2010-08-07scsi: fix discard page leakFUJITA Tomonori1-5/+2
We leak a page allocated for discard on some error conditions (e.g. scsi_prep_state_check returns BLKPREP_DEFER in scsi_setup_blk_pc_cmnd). We unprep on requests that weren't prepped in the error path of scsi_init_io. It makes the error path to clean up scsi commands messy. Let's strictly apply the rule that we can't unprep on a request that wasn't prepped. Calling just scsi_put_command() in the error path of scsi_init_io() is enough. We don't set REQ_DONTPREP yet. scsi_setup_discard_cmnd can safely free a page on the error case with the above rule.

2010-01-18[SCSI] skip sense logging for some ATA PASS-THROUGH cdbsDouglas Gilbert1-2/+8
Further to the lsml thread titled: "does scsi_io_completion need to dump sense data for ata pass through (ck_cond = 1) ?" This is a patch to skip logging when the sense data is associated with a SENSE_KEY of "RECOVERED_ERROR" and the additional sense code is "ATA PASS-THROUGH INFORMATION AVAILABLE". This only occurs with the SAT ATA PASS-THROUGH commands when CK_COND=1 (in the cdb). It indicates that the sense data contains ATA registers. Smartmontools uses such commands on ATA disks connected via SAT. Periodic checks such as those done by smartd cause nuisance entries into logs that are: - neither errors nor warnings - pointless unless the cdb that caused them are also logged Signed-off-by: Douglas Gilbert <dgilbert@interlog.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
2010-01-17[SCSI] scsi_lib: Fix bug in completion of bidi commandsBoaz Harrosh1-1/+1
Because of the terrible structuring of scsi-bidi-commands it breaks some of the life time rules of a scsi-command. It is now not allowed to free up the block-request before cleanup and partial deallocation of the scsi-command. (Which is not so for none bidi commands) The right fix to this problem would be to make bidi command a first citizen by allocating a scsi_sdb pointer at scsi command just like cmd->prot_sdb. The bidi sdb should be allocated/deallocated as part of the get/put_command (Again like the prot_sdb) and the current decoupling of scsi_cmnd and blk-request should be kept. For now make sure scsi_release_buffers() is called before the call to blk_end_request_all() which might cause the suicide of the block requests. At best the leak of bidi buffers, at worse a crash, as there is a race between the existence of the bidi_request and the free of the associated bidi_sdb. The reason this was never hit before is because only OSD has the potential of doing asynchronous bidi commands. (So does bsg but it is never used) And OSD clients just happen to do all their bidi commands synchronously, up until recently.
