The statistics for InputMegabytes and OutputMegabytes are
misnamed.  They're accumulating bytes, not megabytes.

The statistic returned via /sys must be in megabytes, however,
which is what the HBA-API wants.  The FCP code needs to accumulate
it in bytes and then divide by 1,000,000 (not 2^20) before it
presented via sysfs.

This affects fcoe.ko only, not fnic.  The fnic driver
correctly by accumulating bytes and then converts to megabytes.

I checked that libhbalinux is using the /sys file directly without
conversion.

BTW, qla2xxx does divide by 2^20, which I'm not fixing here.

Move the mid-layer's -&gt;queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation.  No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch.  All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
	struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
	void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd-&gt;scsi_done.

Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change.  Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

When number of NPIV ports created are greater than the xids
allocated per pool -- for eg., creating 255 NPIV ports on a
system with nr_cpu_ids of 32, with each pool containing 128
xids -- and then generating a link event - for eg.,
shutdown/no shutdown -- on the switch port causes the hang
with the following stack trace.

discovery again.

Incoming requests shouldn't require a local exchange if we're
just going to reply with one or two frames and don't expect
anything further.  Don't allocate exchanges for such requests
until requested by the upper-layer protocol.

The sequence is always NULL for new requests, so remove
that as an argument to request handlers.

Also change the first argument to lport-&gt;tt.seq_els_rsp_send
from the sequence pointer to the received frame pointer, to
supply the exchange IDs and destination ID info.

fc_fill_reply_hdr() fills a header for a final reply frame.

fc_fill_hdr() which is similar but allows specifying the

To pave the way for eliminating exchanges from incoming requests,
add simple inline fc_frame_sid() and fc_frame_did() functions
which get the FC_IDs from the frame header.  This can be almost
as efficient as getting them from the sequence/exchange.

Move ntohll, htonll, ntoh24 and hton24 to &lt;scsi/fc_frame.h&gt;
since we need them there and that's included by &lt;scsi/libfc.h&gt;

The LOGO state hasn't been used in a while, except in a brief
transition to DELETE state while holding the rport mutex.
All port LOGO responses have been ignored as well as any timeout
if we don't get a response.

So this patch just removes LOGO state and simplifies the response handler.

<content type='text'>
When an exchange is received with a FIP encapsulation, we need
to know that the response must be sent via FIP and what the original
ELS opcode was.  This becomes important for VN2VN mode, where we may
receive FLOGI or LOGO from several peer VN_ports, and the LS_ACC or
LS_RJT must be sent FIP-encapsulated with the correct sub-type.

Add a field to the struct fc_frame, fr_encaps, to indicate the
encapsulation values.  That term is chosen to be neutral and
LLD-agnostic in case non-FCoE/FIP LLDs might find it useful.

The frame fr_encaps is transferred from the ingress frame to the
exchange by fc_exch_recv_req(), and back to the outgoing frame
by fc_seq_send().

This is taking the last byte in the skb-&gt;cb array.  If needed,
we could combine the info in sof, eof, flags, and encaps
together into one field, but it'd be better to do that if
and when its needed.
