6da127ad09 blktrace: Add blktrace ioctls to SCSI generic devices
Since the SCSI layer uses the request queues from the block layer, blktrace can
also be used to trace the requests to all SCSI devices (like SCSI tape drives),
not only disks. The only missing part is the ioctl interface to start and stop
tracing.

This patch adds the SETUP, START, STOP and TEARDOWN ioctls from blktrace to the
sg device files. With this change, blktrace can be used for SCSI devices like
for disks, e.g.: blktrace -d /dev/sg1 -o - | blkparse -i -

53474c042c [SCSI] sg: fix /proc/scsi/sg/devices when no SCSI devices
The patch "[SCSI] sg: use idr to replace static arrays" in 2.6.24-rc1
causes a bogus line to appear in /proc/scsi/sg/devices containing
"-1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1" when there are no SCSI devices in the
system.  In 2.6.23, /proc/scsi/sg/devices is empty when there are no
SCSI devices in the system.  A similar problem exists with
/proc/scsi/sg/device_strs.  The following patch restores the behavior
of 2.6.23.

7c07d613d2 [SCSI] sg: use idr to replace static arrays
sg uses a scheme to reallocate a single contiguous array of all its
pointers for lookup and management.  This didn't matter too much when sg
could only attach 256 nodes, but now the maximum has been bumped up to
32k we're starting to push the limits of the maximum allocatable
contiguous memory.  The solution to this is to eliminate the static
array and do everything via idr, which this patch does.

44ec95425c [SCSI] sg: cap reserved_size values at max_sectors
This patch (as857) modifies the SG_GET_RESERVED_SIZE and
SG_SET_RESERVED_SIZE ioctls in the sg driver, capping the values at
the device's request_queue's max_sectors value.  This will permit
cdrecord to obtain a legal value for the maximum transfer length,
fixing Bugzilla #7026.

The patch also caps the initial reserved_size value.  There's no
reason to have a reserved buffer larger than max_sectors, since it
would be impossible to use the extra space.

The corresponding ioctls in the block layer are modified similarly,
and the initial value for the reserved_size is set as large as
possible.  This will effectively make it default to max_sectors.
Note that the actual value is meaningless anyway, since block devices
don't have a reserved buffer.

Finally, the BLKSECTGET ioctl is added to sg, so that there will be a
uniform way for users to determine the actual max_sectors value for
any raw SCSI transport.

6460e75a10 [SCSI] sg: fixes for large page_size
This sg driver patch addresses the problem with larger
page sizes reported by Brian King in this post:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115867718623631&w=2
Some other related matters are also addressed. Some of these
prevent oopses when the SG_SCATTER_SZ or scatter_elem_sz are
set to inappropriate values.

The scatter_elem_sz has been tested up to 4 MB which should
make the largest data transfer with one SCSI command, 32 MB
less one block, achievable with a relatively small number
of elements in the scatter gather list.

ChangeLog:
    - add scatter_elem_sz boot time parameter and sysfs module
      parameter that is initialized to SG_SCATTER_SZ
    - the driver will then adjust scatter_elem_sz to be the
      max(given(scatter_elem_sz), PAGE_SIZE)
      It will also round it up, if necessary, to be a power
      of two
    - clean up sg.h header, correct bad urls and some statements
      that are no longer valid
    - make the def_reserved_size sysfs module attribute writable

deallocate the space that was allocated in sg_alloc and the redundant entry has
NULL in cdev. When sg_remove is being called, it tries to perform cdev_del to
this NULL cdev and fails.

21b2f0c803 [SCSI] unify SCSI_IOCTL_SEND_COMMAND implementations
We currently have two implementations of this obsolete ioctl, one in
the block layer and one in the scsi code.  Both of them have drawbacks.

This patch kills the scsi layer version after updating the block version
with the missing bits:

 - argument checking
 - use scatterlist I/O
 - set number of retries based on the submitted command

This is the last user of non-S/G I/O except for the gdth driver, so
getting this in ASAP and through the scsi tree would be nie to kill
the non-S/G I/O path.  Jens, what do you think about adding a check
for non-S/G I/O in the midlayer?

Thanks to  Or Gerlitz for testing this patch.

f9aed0e253 [PATCH] sg: use compound pages
sg increments the refcount of constituent pages in its higher order memory
allocations when they are about to be mapped by userspace.  This is done so
the subsequent get_page/put_page when doing the mapping and unmapping does not
free the page.

Move over to the preferred way, that is, using compound pages instead.  This
fixes a whole class of possible obscure bugs where a get_user_pages on a
constituent page may outlast the user mappings or even the driver.

bb1d1073a1 [SCSI] Prevent scsi_execute_async from guessing cdb length
When the scsi_execute_async interface was added it ended up reducing
the flexibility of userspace to send arbitrary scsi commands through
sg using SG_IO. The SG_IO interface allows userspace to specify the
CDB length. This is now ignored in scsi_execute_async and it is
guessed using the COMMAND_SIZE macro, which is not always correct,
particularly for vendor specific commands. This patch adds a cmd_len
parameter to the scsi_execute_async interface to allow the caller
to specify the length of the CDB.

- move DIO code to common place or make block layers usable for ULDs.
- move buffer allocation code to common place for all ULDs to use. And
make buffer allocation code obey all queue limits so we can find
out about problems before calling scsi_execute_async. Currently, sg.c
could allocate a buffer that is too large, and send the request
to scsi_execute_async. scsi_execute_async will then check it against
all the queue limits and return a failure in this case. It would nicer
to know about the queue limit violation right away.
- move indirect (copy_to/from_user) paths commone place or make block
layers usable for ULDs.

handling in mm/ to cover PageReserved functionality.

PageReserved special casing is removed from get_page and put_page.

All setting and clearing of PageReserved is retained, and it is now flagged
in the page_alloc checks to help ensure we don't introduce any refcount
based freeing of Reserved pages.

MAP_PRIVATE, PROT_WRITE of VM_RESERVED regions is tentatively being
deprecated.  We never completely handled it correctly anyway, and is be
reintroduced in future if required (Hugh has a proof of concept).

Once PageReserved() calls are removed from kernel/power/swsusp.c, and all
arch/ and driver code, the Set and Clear calls, and the PG_reserved bit can
be trivially removed.

Last real user of PageReserved is swsusp, which uses PageReserved to
determine whether a struct page points to valid memory or not.  This still
needs to be addressed (a generic page_is_ram() should work).

A last caveat: the ZERO_PAGE is now refcounted and managed with rmap (and
thus mapcounted and count towards shared rss).  These writes to the struct
page could cause excessive cacheline bouncing on big systems.  There are a
number of ways this could be addressed if it is an issue.

9ccfc756a7 [SCSI] move the mid-layer printk's over to shost/starget/sdev_printk
This should eliminate (at least in the mid layer) to make numeric
assumptions about any of the enumeration variables.  As a side effect,
it will also make all the messages consistent and line us up nicely for
the error logging strategy (if it ever shows itself again).

Driver core: pass interface to class intreface methods

Pass interface as argument to add() and remove() class interface
methods. This way a subsystem can implement generic add/remove

939647ee30 [SCSI] fix oops on usb storage device disconnect
We fix the oops by enforcing the host state model.  There have also
been two extra states added: SHOST_CANCEL_RECOVERY and
SHOST_DEL_RECOVERY so we can take the model through host removal while
the recovery thread is active.
