This patch formally adds support for the posting of FC events via netlink.
It is a followup to the original RFC at:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=114530667923464&w=2
and the initial posting at:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&m=115507374832500&w=2
The patch has been updated to optimize the send path, per the discussions
in the initial posting.
Per discussions at the Storage Summit and at OLS, we are to use netlink for
async events from transports. Also per discussions, to avoid a netlink
protocol per transport, I've create a single NETLINK_SCSITRANSPORT protocol,
which can then be used by all transports.
This patch:
- Creates new files scsi_netlink.c and scsi_netlink.h, which contains the
single and shared definitions for the SCSI Transport. It is tied into the
base SCSI subsystem intialization.
Contains a single interface routine, scsi_send_transport_event(), for a
transport to send an event (via multicast to a protocol specific group).
- Creates a new scsi_netlink_fc.h file, which contains the FC netlink event
messages
- Adds 3 new routines to the fc transport:
fc_get_event_number() - to get a FC event #
fc_host_post_event() - to send a simple FC event (32 bits of data)
fc_host_post_vendor_event() - to send a Vendor unique event, with
arbitrary amounts of data.
Note: the separation of event number allows for a LLD to send a standard
event, followed by vendor-specific data for the event.
Note: This patch assumes 2 prior fc transport patches have been installed:

Sorry - next time I'll do something like making these individual
patches of the same posting when I know they'll be posted closely
together.

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.

oktagon_esp is described as modular. However, drivers/scsi/Makefile doesn't
handle it right - it's multi-object module, with one of the parts being built
from .S. Current makefile tries to declare each part a module of its own;
that not only wouldn't work (oktagon_io.o doesn't have the right parts for
that), it actually doesn't even build since kbuild doesn't believe in
single-object modules built from .S. Turned into proper multi-object
module...

The SAS transport class contains common code to deal with SAS HBAs, an
aproximated representation of SAS topologies in the driver model,
and various sysfs attributes to expose these topologies and managment
interfaces to userspace.
In addition to the basic SCSI core objects this transport class introduces
two additional intermediate objects: The SAS PHY as represented by struct
sas_phy defines an "outgoing" PHY on a SAS HBA or Expander, and the SAS
remote PHY represented by struct sas_rphy defines an "incoming" PHY on a
SAS Expander or end device. Note that this is purely a software concept, the
underlying hardware for a PHY and a remote PHY is the exactly the same.
There is no concept of a SAS port in this code, users can see what PHYs
form a wide port based on the port_identifier attribute, which is the same
for all PHYs in a port.
This submission doesn't handle hot-plug addition or removal of SAS devices
and thus doesn't do scanning in a workqueue yet, that will be added in
phase2 after this submission. In a third phase I will add additional
managment infrastructure.
I think this submission is ready for 2.6.14, but additional comments are
of course very welcome.
I'd like to thanks James Smart a lot for his very useful input on the
design.

The idea behind a RAID class is to provide a uniform interface to all
RAID subsystems (both hardware and software) in the kernel.
To do that, I've made this class a transport class that's entirely
subsystem independent (although the matching routines have to match per
subsystem, as you'll see looking at the code). I put it in the scsi
subdirectory purely because I needed somewhere to play with it, but it's
not a scsi specific module.
I used a fusion raid card as the test bed for this; with that kind of
card, this is the type of class output you get:
jejb@titanic> ls -l /sys/class/raid_devices/20\:0\:0\:0/
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 16 17:21 component-0 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:04.0/host20/target20:1:0/20:1:0:0/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 16 17:21 component-1 -> ../../../devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:04.0/host20/target20:1:1/20:1:1:0/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 16 17:21 device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:04.0/host20/target20:0:0/20:0:0:0/
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 16384 Aug 16 17:21 level
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 16384 Aug 16 17:21 resync
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 16384 Aug 16 17:21 state
So it's really simple: for a SCSI device representing a hardware raid,
it shows the raid level, the array state, the resync % complete (if the
state is resyncing) and the underlying components of the RAID (these are
exposed in fusion on the virtual channel 1).
As you can see, this type of information can be exported by almost
anything, including software raid.
The more difficult trick, of course, is going to be getting it to
perform configuration type actions with writable attributes.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
