scsi: core: Convert INQUIRY information

2026-05-23T01:49:05+00:00

Currently the vendor, model, and revision members of struct scsi_device
are pointers to fixed-length strings that are not NUL-terminated.
Fixed-precision format specifiers (e.g., "%.8s") are required whenever
they are printed and strncmp() must be used to compare these fields.
This is error-prone.

Convert these fields to fixed-size character arrays within struct
scsi_device. Remove an !sdev->model check because sdev->model is now
guaranteed not to be NULL.

This patch fixes a bug in the qla2xxx driver. It makes the following
code safe:

		if (state_flags & BIT_4)
			scmd_printk(KERN_WARNING, cp,
			    "Unsupported device '%s' found.\n",
			    cp->device->vendor);

scsi: core: target: Add INQUIRY-related constants to scsi_common.h

2026-05-23T01:49:04+00:00

Move three constants from target/target_core_base.h into
scsi/scsi_common.h. Add three new constants in the scsi_common.h header
file. This patch prepares for using these constants in the SCSI core.

scsi: libsas: Delete unused to_dom_device() and to_dev_attr()

2026-04-09T01:55:51+00:00

These macros are unused and to_dev_attr() will conflict with an upcoming
centralization of general attribute macros.

scsi: core: Drop using the host_lock to protect async_scan race condition

2026-03-07T15:58:33+00:00

Previously, host_lock was used to prevent bit-set conflicts in async_scan,
but this approach introduced naked reads in some code paths.

Convert async_scan from a bitfield to a bool type to eliminate bit-level
conflicts entirely. Use __guarded_by(&scan_mutex) to indicate that the
async_scan variable is protected by scan_mutex.

scsi: core: Add 'serial' sysfs attribute for SCSI/SATA

2026-03-01T01:03:00+00:00

Add a 'serial' sysfs attribute for SCSI and SATA devices. This attribute
exposes the Unit Serial Number, which is derived from the Device
Identification Vital Product Data (VPD) page 0x80.

Whitespace is stripped from the retrieved serial number to handle the
different alignment (right-aligned for SCSI, potentially left-aligned for
SATA). As noted in SAT-5 10.5.3, "Although SPC-5 defines the PRODUCT SERIAL
NUMBER field as right-aligned, ACS-5 does not require its SERIAL NUMBER
field to be right-aligned. Therefore, right-alignment of the PRODUCT SERIAL
NUMBER field for the translation is not assured."

This attribute is used by tools such as lsblk to display the serial number
of block devices.

 "Usual driver updates (qla2xxx, mpi3mr, mpt3sas, ufs) plus assorted
  cleanups and fixes.

  The biggest core change is the massive code motion in the sd driver to
  remove forward declarations and the most significant change is to

scsi: Change the return type of the .queuecommand() callback

2026-01-24T02:32:34+00:00

In clang version 21.1 and later the -Wimplicit-enum-enum-cast warning
option has been introduced. This warning is enabled by default and can
be used to catch .queuecommand() implementations that return another
value than 0 or one of the SCSI_MLQUEUE_* constants. Hence this patch
that changes the return type of the .queuecommand() implementations from
'int' into 'enum scsi_qc_status'. No functionality has been changed.

Merge patch series "scsi: Make use of bus callbacks"

2026-01-12T02:33:19+00:00

Uwe Kleine-König  says:

Hello,

this is v2 of the series to make the scsi subsystem stop using the
callbacks .probe(), .remove() and .shutdown() of struct device_driver.
Instead use their designated alternatives in struct bus_type.

The eventual goal is to drop the callbacks from struct device_driver.

The 2nd patch introduces some legacy handling for drivers still using
the device_driver callbacks. This results in a runtime warning (in
driver_register()). The following patches convert all in-tree drivers
(and thus fix the warnings one after another).
Conceptually this legacy handling could be dropped at the end of the
series, but I think this is a bad idea because this silently breaks
out-of-tree drivers (which also covers drivers that are currently
prepared for mainline submission) and in-tree drivers I might have
missed (though I'm convinced I catched them all). That convinces me that
keeping the legacy handling for at least one development cycle is the
right choice. I'll care for that at the latest when I remove the
callbacks from struct device_driver.

scsi: core: sysfs: Make use of bus callbacks

2026-01-12T02:31:58+00:00

Introduce a bus-specific probe, remove and shutdown function. For now
this only allows to get rid of a cast of the generic device to a SCSI
device in the drivers and changes the remove prototype to return
void---a non-zero return value is ignored anyhow.

The objective is to get rid of users of struct device_driver callbacks
.probe(), .remove() and .shutdown() to eventually remove these. Until
all SCSI drivers are converted, this results in a runtime warning about
the drivers needing an update because there is a bus probe function and
a driver probe function. The in-tree drivers are fixed by the following
commits.

scsi: core: Pass a struct scsi_driver to scsi_{,un}register_driver()

2026-01-12T02:31:57+00:00

This aligns with what other subsystems do, reduces boilerplate a bit for
device drivers and is less error prone.
