In case protection information exists over the wire
iscsi header data length is required to include it.
Use protection information aware scsi helpers to set
the correct transfer length.

In order to avoid breakage, remove iser transfer length
checks for each task as they are not always true and
somewhat redundant anyway.

In case the transport is iser we should not include the
iscsi target info in the sendtargets text response pdu.
This causes sendtargets response to include the target
info twice.

Modify iscsit_build_sendtargets_response to filter
transport types that don't match.

In case the discovery session is carried over iser, we can't
access the assumed network portal since the default portal is
used. In this case we don't really need to allocate the fastreg
pool, just prepare to the text pdu that will follow.

<title>iser-target: Add missing target_put_sess_cmd for ImmedateData failure</title>

<id>6cc44a6fb46e1ecc1c28125aa8fa34d317aa9ea7</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch addresses a bug where an early exception for SCSI WRITE
with ImmediateData=Yes was missing the target_put_sess_cmd() call
to drop the extra se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref reference obtained during the
normal iscsit_setup_scsi_cmd() codepath execution.

This bug was manifesting itself during session shutdown within
isert_cq_rx_comp_err() where target_wait_for_sess_cmds() would
end up waiting indefinately for the last se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref put to
occur for the failed SCSI WRITE + ImmediateData descriptors.

This fix follows what traditional iscsi-target code already does
for the same failure case within iscsit_get_immediate_data().

This patch addresses a bug where an early exception for SCSI WRITE
with ImmediateData=Yes was missing the target_put_sess_cmd() call
to drop the extra se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref reference obtained during the
normal iscsit_setup_scsi_cmd() codepath execution.

This bug was manifesting itself during session shutdown within
isert_cq_rx_comp_err() where target_wait_for_sess_cmds() would
end up waiting indefinately for the last se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref put to
occur for the failed SCSI WRITE + ImmediateData descriptors.

This fix follows what traditional iscsi-target code already does
for the same failure case within iscsit_get_immediate_data().

This addresses a problem where NFS client writes over IPoIB connected
mode may deadlock on memory allocation/writeback.

The problem is not directly memory reclamation.  There is an indirect
dependency between network filesystems writing back pages and
ipoib_cm_tx_init() due to how a kworker is used.  Page reclaim cannot
make forward progress until ipoib_cm_tx_init() succeeds and it is
stuck in page reclaim itself waiting for network transmission.
Ordinarily this situation may be avoided by having the caller use
GFP_NOFS but ipoib_cm_tx_init() does not have that information.

To address this, take a general approach and add a new QP creation
flag that tells the low-level hardware driver to use GFP_NOIO for the
memory allocations related to the new QP.

Use the new flag in the ipoib connected mode path, and if the driver
doesn't support it, re-issue the QP creation without the flag.

<title>IB: Allow build of hw/ and ulp/ subdirectories independently</title>

It is not possible to build only the drivers/infiniband/hw/ (or ulp/)
subdirectory with command such as:

    $ make ARCH=x86_64 O=./obj-x86_64/ drivers/infiniband/hw/

This fails with following error messages:

    make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
    make[2]: Nothing to be done for `relocs'.
      CHK     include/config/kernel.release
      Using /home/ydroneaud/src/linux as source for kernel
      GEN     /home/ydroneaud/src/linux/obj-x86_64/Makefile
      CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
      CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
      CALL    /home/ydroneaud/src/linux/scripts/checksyscalls.sh
    /home/ydroneaud/src/linux/scripts/Makefile.build:44: /home/ydroneaud/src/linux/drivers/infiniband/hw/Makefile: No such file or directory
    make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/home/ydroneaud/src/linux/drivers/infiniband/hw/Makefile'.  Stop.
    make[1]: *** [drivers/infiniband/hw/] Error 2
    make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

This patch creates a Makefile in hw/ and ulp/ and moves each
corresponding parts of drivers/infiniband/Makefile in the new
Makefiles.

It should not break build except if some hw/ drivers or ulp/ were
allowed previously to be built while CONFIG_INFINIBAND is set to 'n',
but according to drivers/infiniband/Kconfig, it's not possible. So it
should be safe to apply.
