This patch fixes a bug where devloss is not called on fc_host teardown.
The issue is seen if the LLDD uses rport_rolechg to add the target role
to an rport.
When an rport goes away, the LLDD will call fc_remote_port_delete, which
will start the devloss timer. If the timer expires, the transport will
call the devloss callback and set the FC_RPORT_DEVLOSS_CALLBK_DONE flag.
However, the rport structure is not deleted, it is retained to store the
SCSI id mappings for the rport in case it comes back. In the scenario
where it does come back, and the driver calls fc_remote_port_add, but does
not indicate the "target" role for the rport - the create will clear the
structure, but forgets to clear FC_RPORT_DEVLOSS_CALLBK_DONE flag (which
is cleared if it's added with the target role). The secondary call, of
fc_remote_port_rolechg to add the target role also does not clear the flag.
Thus, the next time the rport goes away, the resulting devloss timer
expiration will not call the driver callback as the flag is still set.
This patch adds the FC_RPORT_DEVLOSS_CALLBK_DONE flags to the list of
those that are cleared upon reuse of the rport structure.

fc_remove_host() waits for flushing the workqueue, but it is stuck at flushing
the first work. The first work doesnt complete, because it is waiting for async
layer to complete the IOs. The async layer cannot complete the IO as the
terminate_rport_io for the second work was not called, which will be called
only when the first work completes. Hence the deadlock. To resolve this
deadlock, the workqueue allocation has been modified from
create_singlethread_workqueue() to alloc_workqueue().
In addition, fc_terminate_rport_io() should be called before the
scsi_flush_work() to avoid the similar deadlock as above.

We are currently using this flag to check whether it's safe
to call into ->request_fn(). If it is set, we punt to kblockd.
But we get a lot of false positives and excessive punts to
kblockd, which hurts performance.
The only real abuser of this infrastructure is SCSI. So export
the async queue run and convert SCSI over to use that. There's
room for improvement in that SCSI need not always use the async
call, but this fixes our performance issue and they can fix that
up in due time.

When an rport is "blocked" and a bsg request is received, the bsg request gets

If the scsi eh is running and then a FC LLD calls
fc_remote_port_delete, the SCSI commands sent from the eh will fail.
To prevent this, a FC LLD can call fc_block_scsi_eh from the eh
callback, blocking the eh thread until the dev_loss_tmo fires or the
remote port is available again.
If (e.g. for a multipathing setup) the dev_loss_tmo is set to a very
large value, thus preventing the scsi device removal , the scsi eh can
block for a long time. For multipathing, the fast_io_fail_tmo is then
set to a low value to detect path problems sooner.
This patch introduces a new return code FAST_IO_FAIL. The function
fc_block_scsi_eh now returns FAST_IO_FAIL when the fast_io_fail_tmo
fires. This indicates that the LLD terminated all pending I/O requests
and there are no more pending SCSI commands for the scsi eh to wait
for. This return code can be passed back to the scsi eh to stop the
escalation and finish the recovery process for this device.

The rport structure defines dev_loss_tmo as u32, which is
later multiplied with HZ to get the actual timeout value.
This might overflow for large dev_loss_tmo values. So we
should be better using u64 as intermediate variables here
to protect against overflow.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The issue occur while deleting 60 virtual ports through the sys
interface /sys/class/fc_vports/vport-X/vport_delete. It happen while in
a mistake each request sent twice for the same vport. This interface is
asynchronous, entering the delete request into a work queue, allowing
more than one request to enter to the delete work queue. The result is a
NULL pointer. The first request already delete the vport, while the
second request got a pointer to the vport before the device destroyed.
Re-create vport later cause system freeze.
Solution: Check vport flags before entering the request to the work queue.

Currently dev_loss_tmo is capped by SCSI_DEVICE_BLOCK_MAX_TIMEOUT.
This causes problem with multipathing when the 'no_path_retry' setting
exceeds the dev_loss_tmo setting, as then the system might run into
a deadlock when all paths have been removed temporarily for longer
than dev_loss_tmo.
The principal reasons for the capping has been that we should
not allow a remote port to remain in status 'blocked' indefinitely,
so the capping is there to ensure that the port status is being reset
eventually.
However, the fast_io_fail_tmo will also move the remote port out of
the 'blocked' state, so for any HBA driver implementing both the
capping should really be on the fast_io_fail_tmo, and not on the
dev_loss_tmo.
This patch implements just that, ie the fast_io_fail_tmo is capped
to SCSI_DEVICE_BLOCK_TIMEOUT and the capping is removed from
dev_loss_tmo when fast_io_fail_tmo is set.
This allows us to synchronize the dev_loss_tmo setting to the
'no_path_retry' setting from multipathing thus avoiding the deadlock.

Attached is the ELS/CT pass-thru patch for the FC Transport. The patch
creates a generic framework that lays on top of bsg and the SGIO v4 ioctl
in order to pass transaction requests to LLDD's.
The interface supports the following operations:
On an fc_host basis:
Request login to the specified N_Port_ID, creating an fc_rport.
Request logout of the specified N_Port_ID, deleting an fc_rport
Send ELS request to specified N_Port_ID w/o requiring a login, and
wait for ELS response.
Send CT request to specified N_Port_ID and wait for CT response.
Login is required, but LLDD is allowed to manage login and decide
whether it stays in place after the request is satisfied.
Vendor-Unique request. Allows a LLDD-specific request to be passed
to the LLDD, and the passing of a response back to the application.
On an fc_rport basis:
Send ELS request to nport and wait for ELS response.
Send CT request to nport and wait for CT response.
The patch also exports several headers from include/scsi such that
they can be available to user-space applications:
include/scsi/scsi.h
include/scsi/scsi_netlink.h
include/scsi/scsi_netlink_fc.h

Currently, netlink_broadcast() reports errors to the caller if no
messages at all were delivered:
1) If, at least, one message has been delivered correctly, returns 0.
2) Otherwise, if no messages at all were delivered due to skb_clone()
failure, return -ENOBUFS.
3) Otherwise, if there are no listeners, return -ESRCH.
With this patch, the caller knows if the delivery of any of the
messages to the listeners have failed:
1) If it fails to deliver any message (for whatever reason), return
-ENOBUFS.
2) Otherwise, if all messages were delivered OK, returns 0.
3) Otherwise, if no listeners, return -ESRCH.
In the current ctnetlink code and in Netfilter in general, we can add
reliable logging and connection tracking event delivery by dropping the
packets whose events were not successfully delivered over Netlink. Of
course, this option would be settable via /proc as this approach reduces
performance (in terms of filtered connections per seconds by a stateful
firewall) but providing reliable logging and event delivery (for
conntrackd) in return.
This patch also changes some clients of netlink_broadcast() that
may report ENOBUFS errors via printk. This error handling is not
of any help. Instead, the userspace daemons that are listening to
those netlink messages should resync themselves with the kernel-side
if they hit ENOBUFS.
BTW, netlink_broadcast() clients include those that call
cn_netlink_send(), nlmsg_multicast() and genlmsg_multicast() since they
internally call netlink_broadcast() and return its error value.

When we reworked the transport for the rport lifetimes, in cases where the
rport was reused as a container for tgt id bindings, we inadvertantly
removed the callback to the driver indicating that dev_loss_tmo had fired.
This patch restores that functionality.

Pre-emptively terminate i/o on the rport if dev_loss_tmo has fired.
The desire is to terminate everything, so that the i/o is cleaned up
prior to the sdev's being unblocked, thus any outstanding timeouts/aborts
are avoided.
Also, we do this early enough such that the rport's port_id field is
still valid. FCOE libFC code needs this info to find the i/o's to
terminate.

[michaelc@cs.wisc.edu: remove extra scsi_target_unblock call]
Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu>

When we block a rport and the driver implements the terminate
callback we will fail IO that was running quickly. However
IO that was in the scsi_device/block queue sits there until
the dev_loss_tmo fires, and this can make it look like IO is
lost because new IO will get executed but that IO stuck in
the blocked queue sits there for some time longer.
With this patch when the fast io fail tmo fires, we will
fail the blocked IO and any new IO. This patch also allows
all drivers to partially support the fast io fail tmo. If the
terminate io callback is not implemented, we will still fail blocked
IO and any new IO, so multipath can handle that.
This patch also allows the fc and iscsi classes to implement the
same behavior. The timers are just unfornately named differently.
This patch also fixes the problem where drivers were unblocking
the target in their terminate callback, which was needed for
rport removal, but for fast io fail timeout it would cause
IO to bounce arround the scsi/block layer and the LLD queuecommand.
And it for drivers that could have IO stuck but did not have
a terminate callback the unblock calls in the class will fix
them.

Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling.
Move those bits to the block layer.
Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever
and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to
tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot
less timer fiddling.

There's already a fc_vport_termintate() call exported by
the transport. This patch adds a symmetric call to the API to allow
an NPIV-capable LLD to instantiate vports sans user intervention.
Additional comments/updates:
Re: scsi_fc_transport.txt
Add a function prototype for fc_vport_terminate similar to what's
done for fc_vport_create
Re: fc_vport_create
I recommend we pass the channel number in fc_vport_create rather
than fixing it at zero.
Also, ids->vport_type should be set to FC_PORTTYPE_NPIV prior to
calling fc_vport_create. The comment is also meaningless.

Way back when, when the fc_user_scan routine was created, it kept some
of its original logic that walked the rport list and kicked off a scan.
Unfortunately, it didn't keep any of the locking around the rport list,
nor did it consider the synchronous nature of the scan invoked. The result,
there are some scan requests where the rport list changes, thus a subsequent
scan is called on a bogus rport structure and the system NMI's.
