[SCSI] scsi_debug: fix map_region and unmap_region oops

2010-07-27T17:03:55+00:00

map_region and unmap_region could access to invalid memory area since
they don't check the size boundary.

[SCSI] scsi_debug: virtual_gb ignores sector_size

2010-05-02T15:18:55+00:00

In the scsi_debug driver, the virtual_gb option ignores the
sector_size, implicitly assuming that is 512 bytes.  So if
'virtual_gb=1 sector_size=4096' the result is an 8 GB (virtual) disk.

[SCSI] scsi_debug: add max_queue + no_uld parameters

2010-04-11T18:40:38+00:00

While testing the midlevel q_at_head and q_at_tail
patch for sg and the block SG_IO ioctl I found it
useful to reduce the queuing within the scsi_debug
driver. The reason is that the midlevel queue only
comes into play when the corresponding LLD queue
is full.

It is also useful when testing to be confident that
your program is the only thing issuing commands
to the (virtual) scsi_debug device. The no_uld=1
parameter will stop a scsi_debug virtual disk
appearing as /dev/sd* .

Changelog:
   - add max_queue parameter to reduce the number
     of queued commands the driver will accept.
     This parameter can be changed after the driver
     is loaded.
   - add no_uld parameter that restricts scsi_debug's
     virtual devices to the sg and bsg drivers
   - correct stale url

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32+00:00

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

[SCSI] scsi_debug: fix Thin provisioning support

2009-12-04T18:00:49+00:00

While testing scsi_debug with these patches I found a
problem with the Block Limits VPD page function. The
length returned by the inquiry_evpd_b0() function was
too short. A patch to fix that and a cosmetic change
(that the form factor of scsi_debug is less than 1.8
inches) is attached.

[SCSI] scsi_debug: Thin provisioning support

2009-12-04T18:00:16+00:00

This version fixes 64-bit modulo on 32-bit as well as inadvertent map
updates when TP was disabled.

Implement support for thin provisioning in scsi_debug.  No actual memory
de-allocation is taking place.  The intent is to emulate a thinly
provisioned storage device, not to be one.

There are four new module options:

 - unmap_granularity specifies the granularity at which to track mapped
   blocks (specified in number of logical blocks).  2048 (1 MB) is a
   realistic value for disk arrays although some may have a finer
   granularity.

 - unmap_alignment specifies the first LBA which is naturally aligned on
   an unmap_granularity boundary.

 - unmap_max_desc specifies the maximum number of ranges that can be
   unmapped using one UNMAP command.  If this is 0, only WRITE SAME is
   supported and UNMAP will cause a check condition.

 - unmap_max_blocks specifies the maximum number of blocks that can be
   unmapped using a single UNMAP command.  Default is 0xffffffff.

These parameters are reported in the new and extended block limits VPD.

If unmap_granularity is specified the device is tagged as thin
provisioning capable in READ CAPACITY(16).  A bitmap is allocated to
track whether blocks are mapped or not.  A WRITE request will cause a
block to be mapped.  So will WRITE SAME unless the UNMAP bit is set.

Blocks can be unmapped using either WRITE SAME or UNMAP.  No accounting
is done to track partial blocks.  This means that only whole blocks will
be marked free.  This is how the array people tell me their firmwares
work.

GET LBA STATUS is also supported.  This command reports whether a block
is mapped or not, and how long the adjoining mapped/unmapped extent is.

The block allocation bitmap can also be viewed from user space via:

scsi_debug: Add support for physical block exponent and alignment

2009-06-21T16:03:54+00:00

This patch adds support for setting the physical block exponent and
lowest aligned LBA in the READ CAPACITY(16) response.

The B0 VPD page is adjusted accordingly.
