This patch adds support for DIF protection into fd_execute_rw() code
for WRITE/READ I/O using sbc_dif_verify_[write,read]() logic.

It adds fd_do_prot_rw() for handling interface with FILEIO PI, and
uses a locally allocated fd_prot-&gt;prot_buf + fd_prot-&gt;prot_sg for
interacting with SBC DIF verify emulation code.

<id>0f5e2ec46dd64579c0770f3822764f94db4fa465</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for DIF protection init/format support into
the FILEIO backend.

It involves using a seperate $FILE.protection for storing PI that is
opened via fd_init_prot() using the common pi_prot_type attribute.
The actual formatting of the protection is done via fd_format_prot()
using the common pi_prot_format attribute, that will populate the
initial PI data based upon the currently configured pi_prot_type.

Based on original FILEIO code from Sagi.

v1 changes:
  - Fix sparse warnings in fd_init_format_buf (Fengguang)

<title>target/file: Update hw_max_sectors based on current block_size</title>

<id>95cadace8f3959282e76ebf8b382bd0930807d2c</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch allows FILEIO to update hw_max_sectors based on the current
max_bytes_per_io.  This is required because vfs_[writev,readv]() can accept
a maximum of 2048 iovecs per call, so the enforced hw_max_sectors really
needs to be calculated based on block_size.

This addresses a &gt;= v3.5 bug where block_size=512 was rejecting &gt; 1M
sized I/O requests, because FD_MAX_SECTORS was hardcoded to 2048 for
the block_size=4096 case.

(v2: Use max_bytes_per_io instead of -&gt;update_hw_max_sectors)

COMPARE_AND_WRITE expects to be able to send down a DMA_FROM_DEVICE
to obtain the necessary READ payload for comparision against the
first half of the WRITE payload containing the verify user data.

Currently virtual backends expect to internally reference SGLs,
SGL nents, and data_direction, so change IBLOCK, FILEIO and RD
sbc_ops-&gt;execute_rw() to accept this values as function parameters.

Also add default sbc_execute_rw() handler for the typical case for
cmd-&gt;execute_rw() submission using cmd-&gt;t_data_sg, cmd-&gt;t_data_nents,
and cmd-&gt;data_direction).

v2 Changes:
  - Add SCF_COMPARE_AND_WRITE command flag
  - Use sbc_execute_rw() for normal cmd-&gt;execute_rw() submission
    with expected se_cmd members.

<content type='text'>
This patch fixes a bug where FILEIO was incorrectly reporting the number
of logical blocks (+ 1) when using non struct block_device export mode.

It changes fd_get_blocks() to follow all other backend -&gt;get_blocks() cases,
and reduces the calculated dev_size by one dev-&gt;dev_attrib.block_size
number of bytes, and also fixes initial fd_block_size assignment at
fd_configure_device() time introduced in commit 0fd97ccf4.

We can still see the error reported in

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2338981/

when using fileio backed by a block device.

I'm assuming this will get us past that error (from sbc_parse_cdb),
and also assuming it's OK to have our max_sectors be larger than
the block's queue max hw sectors?
