Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"Lots of activity this round on performance improvements in target-core
while benchmarking the prototype scsi-mq initiator code with
vhost-scsi fabric ports, along with a number of iscsi/iser-target
improvements and hardening fixes for exception path cases post v3.10
merge.
The highlights include:
- Make persistent reservations APTPL buffer allocated on-demand, and
drop per t10_reservation buffer. (grover)
- Make virtual LUN=0 a NULLIO device, and skip allocation of NULLIO
device pages (grover)
- Add transport_cmd_check_stop write_pending bit to avoid extra
access of ->t_state_lock is WRITE I/O submission fast-path. (nab)
- Drop unnecessary CMD_T_DEV_ACTIVE check from
transport_lun_remove_cmd to avoid extra access of ->t_state_lock in
release fast-path. (nab)
- Avoid extra t_state_lock access in __target_execute_cmd fast-path
(nab)
- Drop unnecessary vhost-scsi wait_for_tasks=true usage +
->t_state_lock access in release fast-path. (nab)
- Convert vhost-scsi to use modern se_cmd->cmd_kref
TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF usage (nab)
- Add tracepoints for SCSI commands being processed (roland)
- Refactoring of iscsi-target handling of ISCSI_OP_NOOP +
ISCSI_OP_TEXT to be transport independent (nab)
- Add iscsi-target SendTargets=$IQN support for in-band discovery
(nab)
- Add iser-target support for in-band discovery (nab + Or)
- Add iscsi-target demo-mode TPG authentication context support (nab)
- Fix isert_put_reject payload buffer post (nab)
- Fix iscsit_add_reject* usage for iser (nab)
- Fix iscsit_sequence_cmd reject handling for iser (nab)
- Fix ISCSI_OP_SCSI_TMFUNC handling for iser (nab)
- Fix session reset bug with RDMA_CM_EVENT_DISCONNECTED (nab)
The last five iscsi/iser-target items are CC'ed to stable, as they do
address issues present in v3.10 code. They are certainly larger than
I'd like for stable patch set, but are important to ensure proper
REJECT exception handling in iser-target for 3.10.y"
