Do not flush queues then block session. This will cause commands
to needlessly swing around on us and remove goofy
recovery_failed field and replace with state value.
And do not start recovery from within the host reset function.
This causeis too many problems becuase open-iscsi was desinged to
call out to userspace then have userpscae decide if we should
go into recovery or kill the session.

debugged by Ming and Rohan:
The problem Ming and Rohan debugged was that during a normal session
login, open-iscsi is not incrementing the exp_statsn counter. It was
stuck at zero. From the RFC, it looks like if the login response PDU has
a successful status then we should be incrementing that value. Also from
the RFC, it looks like if when we drop a connection then reconnect, we
should be using the exp_statsn from the old connection in the next
relogin attempt.

The current dc395x driver uses PIO to transfer up to 4 bytes which do not
get transferred by DMA (under unclear circumstances). For this the driver
uses page_address() which is broken on highmem. Apart from this the
actual calculation of the virtual address is wrong (even without highmem).
So, e.g., for reading it reads bytes from the driver to a wrong address
and returns wrong data, I guess, for writing it would just output random
data to the device.
The proper fix, as suggested by many, is to dynamically map data using
kmap_atomic(page, KM_BIO_SRC_IRQ) / kunmap_atomic(virt). The reason why it
has not been done until now, although I've done some preliminary patches
more than a year ago was that nobody interested in fixing this problem was
able to reliably reproduce it. Now it changed - with the help from
Sebastian Frei (CC'ed) I was able to trigger the PIO path. Thus, I was
also able to test and debug it.
There are 4 cases when PIO is used in dc395x - data-in / -out with and
without scatter-gather. I was able to reproduce and test only data-in with
and without SG. So, the data-out path is still untested, but it is also
somewhat simpler than the data-in. Fredrik Roubert (also CC'ed) also had
PIO triggering on his system, and in his case it was data-out without SG.
It would be great if he could test the attached patch on his system, but
even if he cannot, I would still request to apply the patch and just wait
if anybody cries...
Implementation: I put 2 new functions in scsi_lib.c and their declarations
in scsi_cmnd.h. I exported them without _GPL, although, I don't feel
strongly about that - not many drivers are likely to use them. But there
is at least one more - I want to use them in tmscsim.c. Whether these are
the right files for the functions and their declarations - not sure
either. Actually, they are not scsi-specific, so, might go somewhere
around other scattergather magic? They are not platform specific either,
and most SG functions are defined under arch/*/... As these issues were
discussed previously there were some more routines suggested to manipulate
scattergather buffers, I think, some of them were needed around
crypto code... So, might be a common place reasonable, like
lib/scattergather.c? I am open here.

There is a lot of code duplcited between iscsi_tcp
and the upcoming iscsi_iser driver. This patch puts
the duplicated code in a lib. There is more code
to move around but this takes care of the
basics. For iscsi_offload if they use the lib we will
probably move some things around. For example in the
queuecommand we will not assume that the LLD wants
to do queue_work, but it is better to handle that
later when we know for sure what iscsi_offload looks
like (we could probably do this for iscsi_iser though to).
Ideally I would like to get the iscsi_transports modules
to a place where all they really have to do is put data
on the wire, but how to do that will hopefully be more clear
when we see other modules like iscsi_offload. Or maybe
iscsi_offload will not use the lib and it will just be
iscsi_iser and iscsi_tcp and maybe the iscsi_tcp_tgt if that
is allowed in mainline.

The current iscsi_tcp eh is not nicely setup for dm-multipath
and performs some extra task management functions when they
are not needed.
The attached patch:
- Fixes the TMF issues. If a session is rebuilt
then we do not send aborts.
- Fixes the problem where if the host reset fired, we would
return SUCCESS even though we had not really done anything
yet. This ends up causing problem with scsi_error.c's TUR.
- If someone has turned on the userspace nop daemon code to try
and detect network problems before the scsi command timeout
we can now drop and clean up the session before the scsi command
timesout and fires the eh speeding up the time it takes for a
command to go from one patch to another. For network problems
we fail the command with DID_BUS_BUSY so if failfast is set
scsi_decide_disposition fails the command up to dm for it to
try on another path.
- And we had to add some basic iscsi session block code. Previously
if we were trying to repair a session we would retrun a MLQUEUE code
in the queuecommand. This worked but it was not the most efficient
or pretty thing to do since it would take a while to relogin
to the target. For iscsi_tcp/open-iscsi a lot of the iscsi error handler
is in userspace the block code is pretty bare. We will be
adding to that for qla4xxx.

For iscsi boot when going from initramfs to the real root we
need to stop the userpsace iscsi daemon. To later restart it
iscsid needs to be able to rebuild itself and part of that
process is matching a session running the kernel with the
iscsid representation. To do this the attached patch
adds several required iscsi values. If the LLD does not provide
them becuase, login is done in userspace, then the transport
class and userspace set ths up for the LLD.

from hare@suse.de and michaelc@cs.wisc.edu
hw iscsi like qla4xxx does not allocate a host per session and
for userspace it is difficult to restart iscsid using the
"iscsi handles" for the session and connection, so this
patch just has the class or userspace allocate the id for
the session and connection.
Note: this breaks userspace and requires users to upgrade to the newest
open-iscsi tools. Sorry about his but open-iscsi is still too new to
say we have a stable user-kernel api and we were not good nough
designers to know that other hw iscsi drivers and iscsid itself would
need such changes. Actually we sorta did but at the time we did not
have the HW available to us so we could only guess.
Luckily, the only tools hooking into the class are the open-iscsi ones
or other tools like iscsitart hook into the open-iscsi engine from
userspace or prgroams like anaconda call our tools so they are not affected.

Some devices report a peripheral qualifier of 3 for LUN 0; with the original
code, we would still try a REPORT_LUNS scan (if SCSI level is >= 3 or if we
have the BLIST_REPORTLUNS2 passed in), but NOT any sequential scan.
Also, the device at LUN 0 (which is not connected according to the PQ) is not
registered with the OS.
Unfortunately, SANs exist that are SCSI-2 and do NOT support REPORT_LUNS, but
report a unknown device with PQ 3 on LUN 0. We still need to scan them, and
most probably we even need BLIST_SPARSELUN (and BLIST_LARGELUN). See the bug
reference for an infamous example.
This is patch 3/3:
3. Implement the blacklist flag BLIST_ATTACH_PQ3 that makes the scsi
scanning code register PQ3 devices and continues scanning; only sg
will attach thanks to scsi_bus_match().

As previously reported via Michael Reed, the FC transport took a hit
in 2.6.15 (perhaps a little earlier) when we solved a recursion error.
There are 2 deadlocks occurring:
- With scan and the delete items sharing the same workq, flushing the
workq for the delete code was getting it stalled behind a very long
running scan code path.
- There's a deadlock where scsi_remove_target() has to sit behind
scsi_scan_target() due to contention over the scan_lock().
This patch resolves the 1st deadlock and significantly reduces the
odds of the second. So far, we have only replicated the 2nd deadlock
on a highly-parallel SMP system. More on the 2nd deadlock in a following
email.
This patch reworks the transport to:
- Only use the scsi host workq for scanning
- Use 2 other workq's internally. One for deletions, the other for
scheduled deletions. Originally, we tried this with a single workq,
but the occassional flushes of the scheduled queues was hitting the
second deadlock with a slightly higher frequency. In the future, we'll
look at the LLDD's and the transport to see if we can get rid of this
extra overhead.
- When moving to the other workq's we tightened up some object states
and some lock handling.
- Properly syncs adds/deletes
- minor code cleanups
- directly reference fc_host_attrs, rather than through attribute
macros
- flush the right workq on delayed work cancel failures.
Large kudos to Michael Reed who has been working this issue for the last
month.

To support the RA4100 array from Compaq.
This patch now correctly handles SCSI_UNKNOWN types with regard to
BLIST_REPORTLUNS2 (allow it) and cdb[1] LUN inclusion (don't).
It also allows a BLIST_MAX_512 flag to restrict the maximum transfer
length to 512 blocks (apparently this is an RA4100 problem).

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.

Bugzilla Bug 6299:
A pixel size of 8 bits produces wrong logo colors in x86_64.
The driver has 2 methods for setting the color map, using the protected
mode interface provided by the video BIOS and directly writing to the VGA
registers. The former is not supported in x86_64 and the latter is enabled
only in i386.
Fix by enabling the latter method in x86_64 only if supported by the BIOS.
If both methods are unsupported, change the visual of vesafb to

Every caller of svc_take_page ignores its return value and assumes it
succeeded. So just WARN() instead of returning an ignored error. This would
have saved some time debugging a recent nfsd4 problem.
If there are still failure cases here, then the result is probably that we
overwrite an earlier part of the reply while xdr-encoding.
While the corrupted reply is a nasty bug, it would be worse to panic here and
create the possibility of a remote DOS; hence WARN() instead of BUG().

An UML user reported (against 2.6.13.3/UML) he got kernel Oopses when
trying to rmmod (on a kernel with module unloading enabled) a module
compiled with module unloading disabled. As crashing is a very correct
thing to do in that case, a solution is altering the vermagic string to
include this too.
Possibly, however, the code should not crash in this case, even if the
module didn't support unloading - it should simply abort the module
removal. In this case, fixing that bug would be a better solution. I've
not investigated though.
(akpm: a bit marginal - root screwed up and shot himself in the foot).

Current implementations define NODES_SHIFT in include/asm-xxx/numnodes.h for
each arch. Its definition is sometimes configurable. Indeed, ia64 defines 5
NODES_SHIFT values in the current git tree. But it looks a bit messy.
SGI-SN2(ia64) system requires 1024 nodes, and the number of nodes already has
been changeable by config. Suitable node's number may be changed in the
future even if it is other architecture. So, I wrote configurable node's
number.
This patch set defines just default value for each arch which needs multi
nodes except ia64. But, it is easy to change to configurable if necessary.
On ia64 the number of nodes can be already configured in generic ia64 and SN2
config. But, NODES_SHIFT is defined for DIG64 and HP'S machine too. So, I
changed it so that all platforms can be configured via CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT. It
would be simpler.

Introduce GFP_NOWAIT, as an alias for GFP_ATOMIC & ~__GFP_HIGH.
This also changes XFS, which is the only in-tree user of this idiom that I
could find. The XFS piece is compile-tested only.

Update {get,put}_user macros for m32r kernel.
- Modify get_user to use __get_user_asm macro, instead of __get_user_x macro.
- Remove arch/m32r/lib/{get,put}user.S.
- Some cosmetic updates.
I would like to thank NIIBE Yutaka for his reporting about the m32r kernel's
security problem in {get,put}_user macros.
There were no address checking for user space access in {get,put}_user macros.

SMP kernel
This patch fixes a boot problem of the m32r SMP kernel 2.6.16-rc1-mm3 or
later.
In this patch, cpu_possible_map is statically initialized, and cpu_present_map
is also copied from cpu_possible_map in smp_prepare_cpus(), because the m32r
architecture has not supported CPU hotplug yet.

Add some documentation regarding the utilisation of the flags field in
struct page. This field is overloaded for per page bits and to hold node,
zone and SPARSEMEM information. Make it clear which areas are used for
what and how many bits are in each area.

These patches are an enhancement of OVERCOMMIT_GUESS algorithm in
__vm_enough_memory().
- why the kernel needed patching
When the kernel can't allocate anonymous pages in practice, currnet
OVERCOMMIT_GUESS could return success. This implementation might be
the cause of oom kill in memory pressure situation.
If the Linux runs with page reservation features like
/proc/sys/vm/lowmem_reserve_ratio and without swap region, I think
the oom kill occurs easily.
- the overall design approach in the patch
When the OVERCOMMET_GUESS algorithm calculates number of free pages,
the reserved free pages are regarded as non-free pages.
This change helps to avoid the pitfall that the number of free pages
become less than the number which the kernel tries to keep free.
- testing results
I tested the patches using my test kernel module.
If the patches aren't applied to the kernel, __vm_enough_memory()
returns success in the situation but autual page allocation is
failed.
On the other hand, if the patches are applied to the kernel, memory
allocation failure is avoided since __vm_enough_memory() returns
failure in the situation.
I checked that on i386 SMP 16GB memory machine. I haven't tested on
nommu environment currently.
This patch adds totalreserve_pages for __vm_enough_memory().
Calculate_totalreserve_pages() checks maximum lowmem_reserve pages and
pages_high in each zone. Finally, the function stores the sum of each
zone to totalreserve_pages.
The totalreserve_pages is calculated when the VM is initilized.
And the variable is updated when /proc/sys/vm/lowmem_reserve_raito
or /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes are changed.

for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs. We've had mistakes
in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been
iterating across only online or present CPUs. This is inefficient and
possibly buggy.
We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the
future.
This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu.
for sparc64.
