iscsi-target; Allow an extra tag_num / 2 number of percpu_ida tags

2013-10-03T21:22:45+00:00

This patch bumps the default number of tags allocated per session by
iscsi-target via transport_alloc_session_tags() -> percpu_ida_init()
by another (tag_num / 2).

This is done to take into account the tags waiting to be acknowledged
and released in iscsit_ack_from_expstatsn(), but who's number are not
directly limited by the CmdSN Window queue_depth being enforced by
the target.

Using a larger value here is also useful to prevent percpu_ida_alloc()
from having to steal tags from other CPUs when no tags are available
on the local CPU, while waiting for unacknowledged tags to be released.

iscsi-target: Perform release of acknowledged tags from RX context

2013-10-03T21:22:45+00:00

This patch converts iscsit_ack_from_expstatsn() to populate a local
ack_list of commands, and call iscsit_free_cmd() directly from RX
thread context, instead of using iscsit_add_cmd_to_immediate_queue()
to queue the acknowledged commands to be released from TX thread
context.

It is helpful to release the acknowledge commands as quickly as
possible, along with the associated percpu_ida tags, in order to
prevent percpu_ida_alloc() from having to steal tags from other
CPUs while waiting for iscsit_free_cmd() to happen from TX thread
context.

iscsi-target: Only perform wait_for_tasks when performing shutdown

2013-10-03T21:22:44+00:00

This patch changes transport_generic_free_cmd() to only wait_for_tasks
when shutdown=true is passed to iscsit_free_cmd().

With the advent of >= v3.10 iscsi-target code using se_cmd->cmd_kref,
the extra wait_for_tasks with shutdown=false is unnecessary, and may
end up causing an extra context switch when releasing WRITEs.

target: Fail on non zero scsi_status in compare_and_write_callback

2013-10-03T11:24:07+00:00

This patch addresses a bug for backends such as IBLOCK that perform
asynchronous completion via transport_complete_cmd(), that will call
target_complete_failure_work() -> transport_generic_request_failure(),
upon exception status and invoke cmd->transport_complete_callback()
-> compare_and_write_callback() incorrectly during the failure case.

It adds a check for a non zero se_cmd->scsi_status within the first
invocation of compare_and_write_callback(), and will jump to out plus
up se_device->caw_sem before exiting the callback.

target: Fix recursive COMPARE_AND_WRITE callback failure

2013-10-03T11:24:06+00:00

This patch addresses a bug when compare_and_write_callback() invoked from
target_complete_ok_work() hits an failure from __target_execute_cmd() ->
cmd->execute_cmd(), that ends up calling transport_generic_request_failure()
-> compare_and_write_post(), thus causing SCF_COMPARE_AND_WRITE_POST to
incorrectly be set.

The result of this bug is that target_complete_ok_work() no longer hits
the if (!rc && !(cmd->se_cmd_flags & SCF_COMPARE_AND_WRITE_POST) check
that forces an immediate return, and instead double completes the se_cmd
in question, triggering an OOPs in the process.

This patch changes compare_and_write_post() to only set this bit when a
failure has not already occured to ensure the immediate return from within
target_complete_ok_work(), and thus allow transport_generic_request_failure()
to handle the sending of the CHECK_CONDITION exception status.

target: Reset data_length for COMPARE_AND_WRITE to NoLB * block_size

2013-10-03T11:24:06+00:00

This patch resets se_cmd->data_length for COMPARE_AND_WRITE emulation
within sbc_compare_and_write() to NoLB * block_size in order to address
a bug with FILEIO backends where a I/O failure will occur when data_length
does not match the I/O size being actually dispatched for the individual
per block READs + WRITEs.

This is done late enough in sbc_compare_and_write() after the memory
allocations have occured in transport_generic_new_cmd() to not cause
any unwanted side-effects.

target: Fall back to vzalloc upon ->sess_cmd_map kzalloc failure

2013-10-02T04:27:31+00:00

This patch changes transport_alloc_session_tags() to fall back to
use vzalloc when kzalloc fails for big tag_num that end up generating
larger order allocations.

Also use is_vmalloc_addr() in transport_alloc_session_tags() failure
path, and normal transport_free_session() path to determine when
vfree() needs to be called instead of kfree().

v2 changes:
  - Use  __GFP_NOWARN | __GFP_REPEAT for sess_cmd_map kzalloc (mst)

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

2013-09-12T23:11:45+00:00

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Lots of activity again this round for I/O performance optimizations
  (per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for vhost + iscsi/target), and the
  addition of new fabric independent features to target-core
  (COMPARE_AND_WRITE + EXTENDED_COPY).

  The main highlights include:

   - Support for iscsi-target login multiplexing across individual
     network portals
   - Generic Per-cpu IDA logic (kent + akpm + clameter)
   - Conversion of vhost to use per-cpu IDA pre-allocation for
     descriptors, SGLs and userspace page pointer list
   - Conversion of iscsi-target + iser-target to use per-cpu IDA
     pre-allocation for descriptors
   - Add support for generic COMPARE_AND_WRITE (AtomicTestandSet)
     emulation for virtual backend drivers
   - Add support for generic EXTENDED_COPY (CopyOffload) emulation for
     virtual backend drivers.
   - Add support for fast memory registration mode to iser-target (Vu)

  The patches to add COMPARE_AND_WRITE and EXTENDED_COPY support are of
  particular significance, which make us the first and only open source
  target to support the full set of VAAI primitives.

  Currently Linux clients are lacking upstream support to actually
  utilize these primitives.  However, with server side support now in
  place for folks like MKP + ZAB working on the client, this logic once
  reserved for the highest end of storage arrays, can now be run in VMs
  on their laptops"
