scsi: ipr: Fix softlockup when rescanning devices in petitboot

As a part of the scan process Linux will allocate and configure a
scsi_device for each target to be scanned. If the device is not present,
then the scsi_device is torn down. As a part of scsi_device teardown a
workqueue item will be scheduled and the lockups we see are because there
are 250k workqueue items to be processed.  Accoding to the specification of
SIS-64 sas controller, max_channel should be decreased on SIS-64 adapters
to 4.

The patch fixes softlockup issue.

Thanks for Oliver Halloran's help with debugging and explanation!

compat_ioctl: scsi: handle HDIO commands from drivers

2020-01-03T08:42:52+00:00

The ata_sas_scsi_ioctl() function implements a number of HDIO_* commands
for SCSI devices, it is used by all libata drivers as well as a few
drivers that support SAS attached SATA drives.

The only command that is not safe for compat ioctls here is
HDIO_GET_32BIT. Change the implementation to check for in_compat_syscall()
in order to do both cases correctly, and change all callers to use it
as both native and compat callback pointers, including the indirect
callers through sas_ioctl and ata_scsi_ioctl.

Merge tag 'scsi-sg' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi

2019-07-11T22:17:41+00:00

Pull SCSI scatter-gather list updates from James Bottomley:
 "This topic branch covers a fundamental change in how our sg lists are
  allocated to make mq more efficient by reducing the size of the
  preallocated sg list.

  This necessitates a large number of driver changes because the
  previous guarantee that if a driver specified SG_ALL as the size of
  its scatter list, it would get a non-chained list and didn't need to
  bother with scatterlist iterators is now broken and every driver
  *must* use scatterlist iterators.

  This was broken out as a separate topic because we need to convert all
  the drivers before pulling the trigger and unconverted drivers kept
  being found, necessitating a rebase"

scsi: ipr: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist

2019-06-20T19:21:32+00:00

Unlike the legacy I/O path, scsi-mq preallocates a large array to hold
the scatterlist for each request. This static allocation can consume
substantial amounts of memory on modern controllers which support a
large number of concurrently outstanding requests.

To facilitate a switch to a smaller static allocation combined with a
dynamic allocation for requests that need it, we need to make sure all
SCSI drivers handle chained scatterlists correctly.

Convert remaining drivers that directly dereference the scatterlist
array to using the iterator functions.

scsi: ata: Use unsigned int for cmd's type in ioctls in scsi_host_template

2019-02-08T22:33:00+00:00

Clang warns several times in the scsi subsystem (trimmed for brevity):

drivers/scsi/hpsa.c:6209:7: warning: overflow converting case value to
switch condition type (2147762695 to 18446744071562347015) [-Wswitch]
        case CCISS_GETBUSTYPES:
             ^
drivers/scsi/hpsa.c:6208:7: warning: overflow converting case value to
switch condition type (2147762694 to 18446744071562347014) [-Wswitch]
        case CCISS_GETHEARTBEAT:
             ^

The root cause is that the _IOC macro can generate really large numbers,
which don't fit into type 'int', which is used for the cmd parameter in
the ioctls in scsi_host_template. My research into how GCC and Clang are
handling this at a low level didn't prove fruitful. However, looking at
the rest of the kernel tree, all ioctls use an 'unsigned int' for the
cmd parameter, which will fit all of the _IOC values in the scsi/ata
subsystems.

Make that change because none of the ioctls expect a negative value for
any command, it brings the ioctls inline with the reset of the kernel,
and it removes ambiguity, which is never good when dealing with compilers.

Most SCSI drivers want to enable "clustering", that is merging of
segments so that they might span more than a single page.  Remove the
ENABLE_CLUSTERING define, and require drivers to explicitly set
DISABLE_CLUSTERING to disable this feature.

scsi: ipr: System hung while dlpar adding primary ipr adapter back

2018-09-21T16:35:39+00:00

While dlpar adding primary ipr adapter back, driver goes through adapter
initialization then schedule ipr_worker_thread to start te disk scan by
dropping the host lock, calling scsi_add_device.  Then get the adapter reset
request again, so driver does scsi_block_requests, this will cause the
scsi_add_device get hung until we unblock. But we can't run ipr_worker_thread
to do the unblock because its stuck in scsi_add_device.

This patch fixes the issue.

  The biggest observable change is going to be that we're (again) trying
  to switch to mulitqueue as the default (a user can still override the

  Other major core stuff is the removal of the remaining Microchannel
