sd: Disable support for 256 byte/sector disks

2015-05-18T18:26:37+00:00

256 bytes per sector support has been broken since 2.6.X,
and no-one stepped up to fix this.
So disable support for it.

lpfc: Fix breakage on big endian kernels

2015-05-11T16:53:03+00:00

This reverts 4fbdf9cb it breaks LPFC on POWER7 machine, big endian kernel.
Without this, the kernel enters an infinite oops loop.

This is the hardware used for verification:

storvsc: Set the SRB flags correctly when no data transfer is needed

2015-05-11T16:46:41+00:00

Set the SRB flags correctly when there is no data transfer.  Without this
change some IHV drivers will fail valid commands such as TEST_UNIT_READY.

3w-9xxx: fix command completion race

2015-04-27T17:10:19+00:00

The 3w-9xxx driver needs to tear down the dma mappings before returning
the command to the midlayer, as there is no guarantee the sglist and
count are valid after that point.  Also remove the dma mapping helpers
which have another inherent race due to the request_id index.

aha1542: Allocate memory before taking a lock

2015-04-27T17:00:30+00:00

The driver currently calls kmalloc with GFP_KERNEL while holding a lock.
Fix it by doing the allocation earlier, before taking the lock.

Tested on AHA-1542B.

SCSI: add 1024 max sectors black list flag

2015-04-27T16:38:06+00:00

This works around a issue with qnap iscsi targets not handling large IOs
very well.

The target returns:

VPD INQUIRY: Block limits page (SBC)
  Maximum compare and write length: 1 blocks
  Optimal transfer length granularity: 1 blocks
  Maximum transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
  Optimal transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
  Maximum prefetch, xdread, xdwrite transfer length: 0 blocks
  Maximum unmap LBA count: 8388607
  Maximum unmap block descriptor count: 1
  Optimal unmap granularity: 16383
  Unmap granularity alignment valid: 0
  Unmap granularity alignment: 0
  Maximum write same length: 0xffffffff blocks
  Maximum atomic transfer length: 0
  Atomic alignment: 0
  Atomic transfer length granularity: 0

and it is *sometimes* able to handle at least one IO of size up to 8 MB. We
have seen in traces where it will sometimes work, but other times it
looks like it fails and it looks like it returns failures if we send
multiple large IOs sometimes. Also it looks like it can return 2 different
errors. It will sometimes send iscsi reject errors indicating out of
resources or it will send invalid cdb illegal requests check conditions.
And then when it sends iscsi rejects it does not seem to handle retries
when there are command sequence holes, so I could not just add code to
try and gracefully handle that error code.

The problem is that we do not have a good contact for the company,
so we are not able to determine under what conditions it returns
which error and why it sometimes works.

So, this patch just adds a new black list flag to set targets like this to
the old max safe sectors of 1024. The max_hw_sectors changes added in 3.19
caused this regression, so I also ccing stable.

Merge branch 'for-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nab/target-pending

2015-04-24T17:22:09+00:00

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Lots of activity in target land the last months.

  The highlights include:

   - Convert fabric drivers tree-wide to target_register_template() (hch
     + bart)

   - iser-target hardening fixes + v1.0 improvements (sagi)

   - Convert iscsi_thread_set usage to kthread.h + kill
     iscsi_target_tq.c (sagi + nab)

   - Add support for T10-PI WRITE_STRIP + READ_INSERT operation (mkp +
     sagi + nab)

   - DIF fixes for CONFIG_DEBUG_SG=y + UNMAP file emulation (akinobu +
     sagi + mkp)

   - Extended TCMU ABI v2 for future BIDI + DIF support (andy + ilias)

   - Fix COMPARE_AND_WRITE handling for NO_ALLLOC drivers (hch + nab)

  Thanks to everyone who contributed this round with new features,
  bug-reports, fixes, cleanups and improvements.

  Looking forward, it's currently shaping up to be a busy v4.2 as well"
