2008-04-16IB/iser: Don't change itt endiannessErez Zilber
The itt field in struct iscsi_data is not defined with any particular endianness. open-iscsi should use it as-is without byte-swapping it. This fixes sparse warnings coming from doing ntohl(hdr->itt). Signed-off-by: Erez Zilber <erezz@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2008-04-16IB/iser: Release connection resources on RDMA_CM_EVENT_DEVICE_REMOVAL eventErez Zilber
When a RDMA_CM_EVENT_DEVICE_REMOVAL event is raised, iSER should release the connection resources. This is necessary when the IB HCA module is unloaded while open-iscsi is still running.

2008-03-10IB/iser: Fix list iteration bugArne Redlich
The iteration through the list of "iser_device"s during device lookup/creation is broken -- it might result in an infinite loop if more than one HCA is used with iSER.

2007-11-24IB/iser: Add missing counter increment in iser_data_buf_aligned_len()Erez Zilber
While adding sg chaining support to iSER, a "for" loop was replaced with a "for_each_sg" loop. The "for" loop included the incrementation of 2 variables. Only one of them is incremented in the current "for_each_sg" loop. This caused iSER to think that all data is unaligned, and all data was copied to aligned buffers. This patch increments the missing counter inside the "for_each_sg" loop whenever necessary. Signed-off-by: Erez Zilber <erezz@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

2007-06-02[SCSI] iscsi class, iscsi_tcp, iser, qla4xxx: add netdevname sysfs attrMike Christie
iSCSI must support software iscsi (iscsi_tcp, iser), hardware iscsi (qla4xxx), and partial offload (broadcom). To be able to allow each stack or driver or port (virtual or physical) to be able to log into the same target portal we use the initiator tuple [[HWADDRESS | NETDEVNAME], INITIATOR_NAME] and the target tuple [TARGETNAME, CONN_ADDRESS, CONN_PORT] to id a session. This patch adds the netdev name, which is used by software iscsi when it binds a session to a netdevice using the SO_BINDTODEVICE sock opt. It cannot use HWADDRESS because if someone did vlans then the same netdevice will have the same mac and the initiator,target id will not be unique.

2007-06-02[SCSI] libiscsi: make can_queue configurableMike Christie
This patch allows us to set can_queue and cmds_per_lun from userspace when we create the session/host. From there we can set it on a per target basis. The patch fully converts iscsi_tcp, but only hooks up ib_iser for cmd_per_lun since it currently has a lots of preallocations based on can_queue.

2007-06-02[SCSI] libiscsi: fix iscsi cmdsn allocationMike Christie
The cmdsn allocation and pdu transmit code can race, and we can end up sending a pdu with cmdsn 10 before a pdu with 5. The target will then fail the connection/session. This patch fixes the problem by delaying the cmdsn allocation until we are about to send the pdu. This also removes the xmitmutex. We were using the connection xmitmutex during error handling to handle races with mtask and ctask cleanup and completion. For ctasks we now have nice refcounting and for the mtask, if we hit the case where the mtask timesout and it is floating around somewhere in the driver, we end up dropping the session. And to handle session level cleanup, we use the xmit suspend bit along with scsi_flush_queue and the session lock to make sure that the xmit thread is not possibly transmitting a task while we are trying to kill it.

This is needed for software iscsi because there are times when iscsid can die and it will need to reread the values it was using. And it is needed by qla4xxx for basic management opertaions.

2007-05-06IB: Add CQ comp_vector supportMichael S. Tsirkin
Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels the userspace libibverbs API. Update all hardware drivers to set num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector value. Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than hard-coding a value of 1. We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt affinity. This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes anyway.

2007-04-05IB/iser: Don't defer connection failure notification to workqueueErez Zilber
When a connection is terminated asynchronously from the iSCSI layer's perspective, iSER needs to notify the iSCSI layer that the connection has failed. This is done using a workqueue (switched to from the iSER tasklet context). Meanwhile, the connection object (that holds the work struct) is released. If the workqueue function wasn't called yet, it will be called later with a NULL pointer, which will crash the kernel. The context switch (tasklet to workqueue) is not required, and everything can be done from the iSER tasklet. This eliminates the NULL work struct bug (and simplifies the code).

2007-03-26IB/iser: Handle aborting a command after it is sentErez Zilber
The SCSI midlayer may abort a command that was already sent. If the initiator is still trying to send the command (or data-out PDUs for that command), the QP may time out after the midlayer times out. Therefore, when aborting the command, iSER may still have references for the command's buffers. When sending these PDUs, the sends will complete with an error and their resources will be released then.

2006-12-08[PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernelDavid Howells
This facility provides three entry points: ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32 ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64 These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data: int do_something(long q) { ...; y = ilog2(x) ...; } Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values: unsigned n = ilog2(27); When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error: initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as unsigned. When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.
