When we create the tcp/ip connection by calling ep_connect, we currently just go by the routing table info. I think there are two problems with this. 1. Some drivers do not have access to a routing table. Some drivers like qla4xxx do not even know about other ports. 2. If you have two initiator ports on the same subnet, the user may have set things up so that session1 was supposed to be run through port1. and session2 was supposed to be run through port2. It looks like we could end with both sessions going through one of the ports. Fixes for cxgb3i from Karen Xie.

cxgb3i does not offload the processing of the header, but it will always process the padding. This patch adds a padding offload flag to detect when the LLD supports this. The patch also modifies the header processing so that we do not try to read/bypass the header dugest in the skb. cxgb3i will not include it with the header like with other offload cards.

cxgb3i is unlike qla4xxx and bnx2i in that it does not offload entire scsi commands or iscsi sequences. Instead it only offloads the transfer of a ISCSI DATA_IN pdu's data, the digests and padding. This patch fixes up the iscsi tcp recv path so that it exports its skb recv processing so cxgb3i and other drivers can call them. All they have to do is pass the function the skb with the hdr or data pdu header and this function will do the rest.

If the driver knows when hardware is removed like with cxgb3i, bnx2i, qla4xxx and iser then we will want to remove the sessions/devices that are bound to that device before removing the host. cxgb3i and in the future bnx2i will remove the host and that will remove all the sessions on the hba. iser can call iscsi_kill_session when it gets an event that indicates that a hca is removed. And when qla4xxx is hooked in to the lib (it is only hooked into the class right now) it can call iscsi remove host like the partial offload card drivers.

This adds two new attrs used for creating initiator ports and binding sessions to hardware. The session level initiatorname: Since bnx2i does a scsi_host per host device, we need to add the iface initiator port settings on the session, so we can create multiple initiator ports (each with different inames) per device/scsi_host. The current iname reflects that qla4xxx can have one iname per hba, and we are allocating a host per session for software. The iname on the host will remain so we can export and set the hba level qla4xxx setting. The ifacename attr: To bind a session to a some peice of hardware in userspace we maintain some mappings, but during boot or iscsid restart (iscsid contains the user space part of the driver) we need to be able to figure out which of those host mappings abstractions maps to certain sessions. This patch adds a ifacename attr, which userspace can set to id the host side of the endpoint across pivot_roots and iscsid restarts.

Add sysfs representation for the endpoint, so userspace can match the host and session to the endpoint. This will allow us to set the host's parent correctly at host creation time.

bnx2i allocates a host per netdevice but will use libiscsi, so this unbinds the session from the host in that code. This will also be useful for the iser parent device dma settings fixes.

iscsi offload (bnx2i and qla4xx) allocate a scsi host per hba, so the session creation path needs a shost/host_no argument. Software iscsi/iser will follow the same behabior as before where it allcoates a host per session, but in the future iser will probably look more like bnx2i where the host's parent is the hardware (rnic for iser and for bnx2i it is the nic), because it does not use a socket layer like how iscsi_tcp does.

During root boot and shutdown the target could send us nops. At this time iscsid cannot be running, so the target will drop the session and the boot or shutdown will hang. To handle this and allow us to better control when to check the network this patch moves the nop handling to the kernel.

We were using the device delete sysfs file to remove each device then logout. Now in 2.6.21 this will not work because the sysfs delete file returns immediately and does not wait for the device removal to complete. This causes a hang if a cache sync is needed during shutdown. Before .21, that approach had other problems, so this patch fixes the shutdown code so that we remove the target and unbind the session before logging out and shut down the session Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

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.

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 attached patches add sysfs files for the chap settings to the iscsi transport class, iscsi_tcp and ib_iser. 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. This patch does not hook in qla4xxx yet, because I am not sure the mbx command to use.

For iscsi root boot, software iscsi needs to know what the BIOS/OF initiator used for the initiator name so this puts it in sysfs for userspace to be able to pick up.

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.

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.

From: michaelc@cs.wisc.edu fujita.tomonori@lab.ntt.co.jp da-x@monatomic.org and err path fixup from: ogerlitz@voltaire.com This patch cleans up that interface by having the lld and class pass a iscsi_cls_session or iscsi_cls_conn between each other when the function is used by HW and SW iscsi llds. This way the lld does not have to remember if it has to send a handle or pointer and a handle or pointer to connection, session or host. This also has the class verify the session handle that gets passed from userspace instead of using the pointer passed into the kernel directly.

This is the second version of the patch to address Christoph's comments. Instead of doing the lib, I just kept everything in scsi_trnapsort_iscsi.c like the FC and SPI class. This was becuase the driver model and sysfs class is tied to the session and connection setup so separating did not buy very much at this time. The reason for this patch was becuase HW iscsi LLDs like qla4xxx cannot use the iscsi class becuase the scsi_host was tied to the interface and class code. This patch just seperates the session from scsi host so that LLDs that allocate the host per some resource like pci device can still use the class. This is also fixes a couple refcount bugs that can be triggered when users have a sysfs file open, close the session, then read or write to the file.
