When running command pipelining for WRITE direction commands (e.g. tape
device write), userspace sends cmd completion to cmd ring before processing
write data. In that case userspace has to copy data before sending
completion, because cmd completion also implicitly releases the data buffer
in data area.
The new feature KEEP_BUF allows userspace to optionally keep the buffer
after completion by setting new bit TCMU_UFLAG_KEEP_BUF in
tcmu_cmd_entry_hdr->uflags. In that case buffer has to be released
explicitly by writing the cmd_id to new action item free_kept_buf.
All kept buffers are released during reset_ring and if userspace closes uio
device (tcmu_release).

This patch implements the tmr_notify callback for tcmu. When the callback
is called, tcmu checks the list of aborted commands it received as
parameter:
- aborted commands in the qfull_queue are removed from the queue and
target_complete_command is called
- from the cmd_ids of aborted commands currently uncompleted in cmd ring
it creates a list of aborted cmd_ids.
Finally a TMR notification is written to cmd ring containing TMR type and
cmd_id list. If there is no space in ring, the TMR notification is queued
on a TMR specific queue.
The TMR specific queue 'tmr_queue' can be seen as a extension of the cmd
ring. At the end of each iexecution of tcmu_complete_commands() we check
whether tmr_queue contains TMRs and try to move them onto the ring. If
tmr_queue is not empty after that, we don't call run_qfull_queue() because
commands must not overtake TMRs.
This way we guarantee that cmd_ids in TMR notification received by
userspace either match an active, not yet completed command or are no
longer valid due to userspace having complete some cmd_ids meanwhile.
New commands that were assigned to an aborted cmd_id will always appear on
the cmd ring _after_ the TMR.

Generally target core and TCMUser seem to work fine for tape devices and
media changers. But there is at least one situation where TCMUser is not
able to support sequential access device emulation correctly.
The situation is when an initiator sends a SCSI READ CDB with a length that
is greater than the length of the tape block to read. We can distinguish
two subcases:
A) The initiator sent the READ CDB with the SILI bit being set.
In this case the sequential access device has to transfer the data from
the tape block (only the length of the tape block) and transmit a good
status. The current interface between TCMUser and the userspace does
not support reduction of the read data size by the userspace program.
The patch below fixes this subcase by allowing the userspace program to
specify a reduced data size in read direction.
B) The initiator sent the READ CDB with the SILI bit not being set.
In this case the sequential access device has to transfer the data from
the tape block as in A), but additionally has to transmit CHECK
CONDITION with the ILI bit set and NO SENSE in the sensebytes. The
information field in the sensebytes must contain the residual count.
With the below patch a user space program can specify the real read data
length and appropriate sensebytes. TCMUser then uses the se_cmd flag
SCF_TREAT_READ_AS_NORMAL, to force target core to transmit the real data
size and the sensebytes. Note: the flag SCF_TREAT_READ_AS_NORMAL is
introduced by Lee Duncan's patch "[PATCH v4] target: transport should
handle st FM/EOM/ILI reads" from Tue, 15 May 2018 18:25:24 -0700.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

1. TCMU_ATTR_TYPE is too generic when it describes only the
reconfiguration type, so rename to TCMU_ATTR_RECONFIG_TYPE.
2. Only return the reconfig type when it is a
TCMU_CMD_RECONFIG_DEVICE command.
3. CONFIG_* type is not needed. We can pass the value along with an
ATTR to userspace, so it does not need to read sysfs/configfs.
4. Fix leak in tcmu_dev_path_store and rename to dev_config to
reflect it is more than just a path that can be changed.
6. Don't update kernel struct value if netlink sending fails.

The initial version of TCMU (in 3.18) does not properly handle
bidirectional SCSI commands -- those with both an in and out buffer. In
looking to fix this it also became clear that TCMU's support for adding
new types of entries (opcodes) to the command ring was broken. We need
to fix this now, so that future issues can be handled properly by adding
new opcodes.
We make the most of this ABI break by enabling bidi cmd handling within
TCMP_OP_CMD opcode. Add an iov_bidi_cnt field to tcmu_cmd_entry.req.
This enables TCMU to describe bidi commands, but further kernel work is
needed for full bidi support.
Enlarge tcmu_cmd_entry_hdr by 32 bits by pulling in cmd_id and __pad1. Turn
__pad1 into two 8 bit flags fields, for kernel-set and userspace-set flags,
"kflags" and "uflags" respectively.
Update version fields so userspace can tell the interface is changed.
Update tcmu-design.txt with details of how new stuff works:
- Specify an additional requirement for userspace to set UNKNOWN_OP
(bit 0) in hdr.uflags for unknown/unhandled opcodes.
- Define how Data-In and Data-Out fields are described in req.iov[]
Changed in v2:
- Change name of SKIPPED bit to UNKNOWN bit
- PAD op does not set the bit any more
- Change len_op helper functions to take just len_op, not the whole struct
- Change version to 2 in missed spots, and use defines
- Add 16 unused bytes to cmd_entry.req, in case additional SAM cmd
parameters need to be included
- Add iov_dif_cnt field to specify buffers used for DIF info in iov[]
- Rearrange fields to naturally align cdb_off
- Handle if userspace sets UNKNOWN_OP by indicating failure of the cmd
- Wrap some overly long UPDATE_HEAD lines
(Add missing req.iov_bidi_cnt + req.iov_dif_cnt zeroing - Ilias)

Add a LIO storage engine that presents commands to userspace for execution.
This would allow more complex backstores to be implemented out-of-kernel,
and also make experimentation a-la FUSE (but at the SCSI level -- "SUSE"?)
possible.
It uses a mmap()able UIO device per LUN to share a command ring and data
area. The commands are raw SCSI CDBs and iovs for in/out data. The command
ring is also reused for returning scsi command status and optional sense
data.
This implementation is based on Shaohua Li's earlier version but heavily
modified. Differences include:
* Shared memory allocated by kernel, not locked-down user pages
* Single ring for command request and response
* Offsets instead of embedded pointers
* Generic SCSI CDB passthrough instead of per-cmd specialization in ring
format.
* Uses UIO device instead of anon_file passed in mailbox.
* Optional in-kernel handling of some commands.
The main reason for these differences is to permit greater resiliency
if the user process dies or hangs.
Things not yet implemented (on purpose):
* Zero copy. The data area is flexible enough to allow page flipping or
backend-allocated pages to be used by fabrics, but it's not clear these
are performance wins. Can come later.
* Out-of-order command completion by userspace. Possible to add by just
allowing userspace to change cmd_id in rsp cmd entries, but currently
not supported.
* No locks between kernel cmd submission and completion routines. Sounds
like it's possible, but this can come later.
* Sparse allocation of mmaped area. Current code vmallocs the whole thing.
If the mapped area was larger and not fully mapped then the driver would
have more freedom to change cmd and data area sizes based on demand.
Current code open issues:
* The use of idrs may be overkill -- we maybe can replace them with a
simple counter to generate cmd_ids, and a hash table to get a cmd_id's
associated pointer.
* Use of a free-running counter for cmd ring instead of explicit modulo
math. This would require power-of-2 cmd ring size.
