2012-07-20[SCSI] async: make async_synchronize_full() flush all work regardless of domainDan Williams
In response to an async related regression James noted: "My theory is that this is an init problem: The assumption in a lot of our code is that async_synchronize_full() waits for everything ... even the domain specific async schedules, which isn't true." ...so make this assumption true. Each domain, including the default one, registers itself on a global domain list when work is scheduled. Once all entries complete it exits that list. Waiting for the list to be empty syncs all in-flight work across all domains. Domains can opt-out of global syncing if they are declared as exclusive ASYNC_DOMAIN_EXCLUSIVE(). All stack-based domains have been declared exclusive since the domain may go out of scope as soon as the last work item completes. Statically declared domains are mostly ok, but async_unregister_domain() is there to close any theoretical races with pending async_synchronize_full waiters at module removal time.

2012-07-20[SCSI] async: introduce 'async_domain' typeDan Williams
This is in preparation for teaching async_synchronize_full() to sync all pending async work, and not just on the async_running domain. This conversion is functionally equivalent, just embedding the existing list in a new async_domain type. The .registered attribute is used in a later patch to distinguish between domains that want to be flushed by async_synchronize_full() versus those that only expect async_synchronize_{full|cookie}_domain to be used for flushing.

2012-07-20[SCSI] virtio-scsi: Add vdrv->scan for post VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK LUN ↵Nicholas Bellinger
scanning This patch changes virtio-scsi to use a new virtio_driver->scan() callback so that scsi_scan_host() can be properly invoked once virtio_dev_probe() has set add_status(dev, VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK) to signal active virtio-ring operation, instead of from within virtscsi_probe(). This fixes a bug where SCSI LUN scanning for both virtio-scsi-raw and virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost setups was happening before VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER_OK had been set, causing VIRTIO_SCSI_S_BAD_TARGET to occur. This fixes a bug with virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost where LUN scan was not detecting LUNs. Tested with virtio-scsi-raw + virtio-scsi/tcm_vhost w/ IBLOCK on 3.5-rc2 code.

2012-07-20[SCSI] libata, libsas: introduce sched_eh and end_eh port opsDan Williams
When managing shost->host_eh_scheduled libata assumes that there is a 1:1 shost-to-ata_port relationship. libsas creates a 1:N relationship so it needs to manage host_eh_scheduled cumulatively at the host level. The sched_eh and end_eh port port ops allow libsas to track when domain devices enter/leave the "eh-pending" state under ha->lock (previously named ha->state_lock, but it is no longer just a lock for ha->state changes). Since host_eh_scheduled indicates eh without backing commands pinning the device it can be deallocated at any time. Move the taking of the domain_device reference under the port_lock to guarantee that the ata_port stays around for the duration of eh.

Sometimes this timeout isn't sufficient to allow the array to complete the transition. T10-spc4 addresses this under 'Report Target Port Groups' command.

This has scsi_internal_device_unblock/scsi_target_unblock take the new state to set the devices as an argument instead of always setting to running. The patch also converts users of these functions. This allows the FC and iSCSI class to transition devices from blocked to transport-offline, so that when fast_io_fail/replacement_timeout has fired we do not set the devices back to running. Instead, we set them to SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <JBottomley@Parallels.com>
2012-07-20[SCSI] add new SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE stateMike Christie
This patch adds a new state SDEV_TRANSPORT_OFFLINE. It will be used by transport classes to offline devices for cases like when the fast_io_fail/recovery_tmo fires. In those cases we want all IO to fail, and we have not yet escalated to dev_loss_tmo behavior where we are removing the devices. Currently to handle this state, transport classes are setting the scsi_device's state to running, setting their internal session/port structs state to something that indicates failed, and then failing IO from some transport check in the queuecommand. The reason for the new value is so that users can distinguish between a device failure that is a result of a transport problem vs the wide range of errors that devices get offlined for when a scsi command times out and we offline the devices there. It also fixes the confusion as to why the transport class is failing IO, but has set the device state from blocked to running.

However, experience shows, that a slave ID is indeed the only parameter, needed to identify DMA slaves. This is also, what is used by the core dmaengine API in struct dma_slave_config. We switch to using the slave_id directly, instead of passing a pointer to struct shdma_slave to improve compatibility with the core. We also make the slave_id signed for easier error checking.

2012-07-19xen PVonHVM: move shared_info to MMIO before kexecOlaf Hering
Currently kexec in a PVonHVM guest fails with a triple fault because the new kernel overwrites the shared info page. The exact failure depends on the size of the kernel image. This patch moves the pfn from RAM into MMIO space before the kexec boot. The pfn containing the shared_info is located somewhere in RAM. This will cause trouble if the current kernel is doing a kexec boot into a new kernel. The new kernel (and its startup code) can not know where the pfn is, so it can not reserve the page. The hypervisor will continue to update the pfn, and as a result memory corruption occours in the new kernel. One way to work around this issue is to allocate a page in the xen-platform pci device's BAR memory range. But pci init is done very late and the shared_info page is already in use very early to read the pvclock. So moving the pfn from RAM to MMIO is racy because some code paths on other vcpus could access the pfn during the small window when the old pfn is moved to the new pfn. There is even a small window were the old pfn is not backed by a mfn, and during that time all reads return -1. Because it is not known upfront where the MMIO region is located it can not be used right from the start in xen_hvm_init_shared_info. To minimise trouble the move of the pfn is done shortly before kexec. This does not eliminate the race because all vcpus are still online when the syscore_ops will be called. But hopefully there is no work pending at this point in time. Also the syscore_op is run last which reduces the risk further.

2012-07-19xen/pv-on-hvm kexec: shutdown watches from old kernelOlaf Hering
Add xs_reset_watches function to shutdown watches from old kernel after kexec boot. The old kernel does not unregister all watches in the shutdown path. They are still active, the double registration can not be detected by the new kernel. When the watches fire, unexpected events will arrive and the xenwatch thread will crash (jumps to NULL). An orderly reboot of a hvm guest will destroy the entire guest with all its resources (including the watches) before it is rebuilt from scratch, so the missing unregister is not an issue in that case. With this change the xenstored is instructed to wipe all active watches for the guest. However, a patch for xenstored is required so that it accepts the XS_RESET_WATCHES request from a client (see changeset 23839:42a45baf037d in xen-unstable.hg). Without the patch for xenstored the registration of watches will fail and some features of a PVonHVM guest are not available. The guest is still able to boot, but repeated kexec boots will fail.

On paths with firewalls dropping SYN with data or experimental TCP options, Fast Open connections will have experience SYN timeout and bad performance. The solution is to track such incidents in the cookie cache and disables Fast Open temporarily. Since only the original SYN includes data and/or Fast Open option, the SYN-ACK has some tell-tale sign (tcp_rcv_fastopen_synack()) to detect such drops. If a path has recurring Fast Open SYN drops, Fast Open is disabled for 2^(recurring_losses) minutes starting from four minutes up to roughly one and half day. sendmsg with MSG_FASTOPEN flag will succeed but it behaves as connect() then write().

For blocking socket, sendmsg() blocks until all the data are buffered locally and the handshake is completed like connect() call. It returns similar errno like connect() if the TCP handshake fails. For non-blocking socket, it returns the number of bytes queued (and transmitted in the SYN-data packet) if cookie is available. If cookie is not available, it transmits a data-less SYN packet with Fast Open cookie request option and returns -EINPROGRESS like connect(). Using MSG_FASTOPEN on connecting or connected socket will result in simlar errno like repeating connect() calls. Therefore the application should only use this flag on new sockets. The buffer size of sendmsg() is independent of the MSS of the connection. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - sending SYN-dataYuchung Cheng
This patch implements sending SYN-data in tcp_connect(). The data is from tcp_sendmsg() with flag MSG_FASTOPEN (implemented in a later patch). The length of the cookie in tcp_fastopen_req, init'd to 0, controls the type of the SYN. If the cookie is not cached (len==0), the host sends data-less SYN with Fast Open cookie request option to solicit a cookie from the remote. If cookie is not available (len > 0), the host sends a SYN-data with Fast Open cookie option. If cookie length is negative, the SYN will not include any Fast Open option (for fall back operations). To deal with middleboxes that may drop SYN with data or experimental TCP option, the SYN-data is only sent once. SYN retransmits do not include data or Fast Open options. The connection will fall back to regular TCP handshake. Signed-off-by: Yuchung Cheng <ycheng@google.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-19net-tcp: Fast Open client - cookie cacheYuchung Cheng
With help from Eric Dumazet, add Fast Open metrics in tcp metrics cache. The basic ones are MSS and the cookies. Later patch will cache more to handle unfriendly middleboxes.
