there's a USB mass storage device which exists in two version. One
reports the correct size and the other does not. Apart from that they
are identical and cannot be told apart. Here's a heuristic based on the
empirical finding that drives have even sizes.

scsi_transport.h defines the inline function scsi_transport_device_data() that
dereferences a pointer of "struct scsi_device *". Since the struct is not
known by the header this might break compilation.
Include scsi/scsi_device.h to not rely on users doing the correct magic

This patches fixes two bugs in the scsi target infrastructure's
user/kernel interface.
- It wrongly assumes that the ring buffer size of the interface (64KB)
is larger than or equal to the system page size. This patch sets the
ring buffer size to PAGE_SIZE if the system page size is larger.
- It uses PAGE_SIZE in the header file exported to userspace. This
patch removes it.

This patch moves the code that handles SAS failures out of the main EH
function and into a separate function. It also detects commands that have
no sas_task (i.e. they completed, but with error data) and sends them into
scsi_error for processing. This allows us to handle SCSI errors (and
enables auto-spinup as a side effect) instead of dropping them on the
floor and falling into an infinite loop. It also requires the
implementation of a device reset function, which the SAS failure code has
been modified to employ for REQ_DEVICE_RESET.

sas_rphy_delete does two things: it removes the sas_rphy from the transport
layer and frees the sas_rphy. This can be broken down into two functions,
sas_rphy_remove and sas_rphy_free; sas_rphy_remove is of interest to
sas_discover_root_expander because it calls functions that require
sas_rphy_add as a prerequisite and can fail (namely sas_discover_expander).
In that case, sas_discover_root_expander needs to be able to undo the effects
of sas_rphy_add yet leave the job of freeing the sas_rphy to the caller of
sas_discover_root_expander.
This patch also removes some unnecessary code from sas_discover_end_dev
to eliminate an unnecessary cycle of sas_notify_lldd_gone/found for SAS
devices, thus eliminating a sas_rphy_remove call (and fixing a race condition
where a SCSI target scan can come in between the gone and found call).
It also moves the sas_rphy_free calls into sas_discover_domain and
sas_ex_discover_end_dev to complement the sas_rphy_allocation via
sas_get_port_device.
This patch does not change the semantics of sas_rphy_delete.

sas_task_abort() should simply abort the upper-level SCSI command and wait
until the error handler to send the actual ABORT TASK command. By
deferring things to the EH we simplify the concurrency coordination and
eliminate some race conditions. Note that sas_task_abort has a few hooks
to handle libsas internal commands properly too.
Also rename do_sas_task_abort to __sas_task_abort just in case we really
want to abort the task *right now* and we don't have a scsi_cmnd attached
to the command. This is a hook for libata internal commands to abort.

When a SAS LLDD needs to request a device port reset, it needs to have all
commands aborted before it can reset the port. Since commands are put on
the EH's list in the order that they were queued, the LLDD can set a "need
reset" flag in the last task to be aborted so that the EH can reset the
port after all commands are aborted.

On a system with many SAS targets, it appears possible that a scsi_cmnd
can time out without ever making it to the SAS LLDD or at the same time
that a completion is occurring. In both of these cases, telling the
LLDD to abort the sas_task makes no sense because the LLDD won't know
about the sas_task; what we really want to do is to increase the timer.
Note that this involves creating another sas_task bit to indicate
whether or not the task has been sent to the LLDD; I could have
implemented this by slightly redefining SAS_TASK_STATE_PENDING, but
this way seems cleaner.
This second version amends the aic94xx portion to set the
TASK_AT_INITIATOR flag for all sas_tasks that were passed to
lldd_execute_task.

The user-space daemon and tgt kernel module need bi-directional
kernel/user high-performance interface, however, mainline provides no
standard interface like that.
This patch adds shared memory interface between kernel and user spaces
like some other drivers do by using own character device. The
user-space daemon and tgt kernel module creates shared memory via mmap
and use it like ring buffer. poll (kernel to user) and write (user to
kernel) system calls are used for notification.

This patch contains the needed changes to the scsi-ml for the target
mode support.
Note, per the last review we moved almost all the fields we added
to the scsi_cmnd to our internal data structure which we are going
to try and kill off when we can replace it with support from other
parts of the kernel.
The one field we left on was the offset variable. This is needed to handle
the case where the target gets request that is so large that it cannot
execute it in one dma operation. So max_secotors or a segment limit may
limit the size of the transfer. In this case our tgt core code will
break up the command into managable transfers and send them to the
LLD one at a time. The offset is then used to tell the LLD where in
the command we are at. Is there another field on the scsi_cmd for
that?

If a driver can find its own targets, it can now fill in scan_finished and
(optionally) scan_start in the scsi_host_template. Then, when it calls
scsi_scan_host(), it will be called back (from a thread if asynchronous
discovery is enabled), first to start the scan, and then at intervals to
check if the scan is completed.
Also make scsi_prep_async_scan and scsi_finish_async_scan static.

This patch implements a REQ_DEVICE_RESET handler for the aic94xx
driver. Like the earlier REQ_TASK_ABORT patch, this patch defers the
device reset to the Scsi_Host's workqueue, which has the added benefit
of ensuring that the device reset does not happen at the same time
that the abort tmfs are being processed. After the phy reset, the
busted drive should go away and be re-detected later, which is indeed
what I've seen on both a x260 and a x206m.

The transport class recv mempools are causing slab corruption.
We could hack around netlink's lack of mempool support like dm,
but it is just too ulgy (dm's hack is ugly enough :) when you need
to support broadcast.
This patch removes the recv pools. We have not used them even when
we were allocting 20 MB per session and the system only had 64 MBs.
And we have no pools on the send side and have been ok there. When
Peter's work gets merged we can use that since the network guys
are in favor of that approach and are not going to add mempools
everywhere.

Since it often takes around 20-30 seconds to scan a scsi bus, it's
highly advantageous to do this in parallel with other things. The bulk
of this patch is ensuring that devices don't change numbering, and that
all devices are discovered prior to trying to start init. For those
who build SCSI as modules, there's a new scsi_wait_scan module that will
ensure all bus scans are finished.
This patch only handles drivers which call scsi_scan_host. Fibre Channel,
SAS, SATA, USB and Firewire all need additional work.

Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require
it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require
the block layer to be present.
This patch does the following:
(*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev
support.
(*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls
an item that uses the block layer. This includes:
(*) Block I/O tracing.
(*) Disk partition code.
(*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS.
(*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the
block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities -
such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this.
(*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM
drivers.
(*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.
(*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by
taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book.
(*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and
linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is,
however, still used in places, and so is still available.
(*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and
parts of linux/fs.h.
(*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK
is not enabled.
(*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are
required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:
(*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).
(*) Makes some /proc changes:
(*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.
(*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.
(*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if
given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.
(*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if
CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.
(*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return
error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).
(*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if
CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

make the largest data transfer with one SCSI command, 32 MB
less one block, achievable with a relatively small number
of elements in the scatter gather list.
ChangeLog:
- add scatter_elem_sz boot time parameter and sysfs module
parameter that is initialized to SG_SCATTER_SZ
- the driver will then adjust scatter_elem_sz to be the
max(given(scatter_elem_sz), PAGE_SIZE)
It will also round it up, if necessary, to be a power
of two
- clean up sg.h header, correct bad urls and some statements
that are no longer valid
- make the def_reserved_size sysfs module attribute writable
