iSCSI-SCST: A huge improvements in errors recovery and iSCSI RFC complaince as well as performance. Also:
- Fixes and improvements for MaxOutstandingR2T>1
- Flow control tracing added.
- Cleanups
SCST core:
- Now for scst_cmd_init_stage1_done() commands preprocessing_done() is always called before xmit_response(), even in case of abort or error.
- Fixed recently introduced bug, which can lead to sending responses for aborted commands after reply on the corresponding TM command already sent.
- Flow control tracing added.
- Now it is possible to call functions setting commands execution status (e.g., scst_set_cmd_error_status()) several times for the same command. Only the first call will be completed, other calls - ignored.
- All commands are counted and shown in proc/sysfs now. Before only active, i.e. not yet executed commands, were counted and shown there.

- iSCSI read state machine cleanups
- Fix a race when just freed iSCSI session accessed, because the corresponding SCST session is still being unregistered.

now report functions that are called with a lock held but that are missing
__acquires() and __releases() annotations. The patch below adds such
annotations and makes the following sparse warnings disappear:
drivers/scst/iscsi-scst/iscsi.c:2861:9: warning: context imbalance in 'iscsi_check_send_delayed_tm_resp' - unexpected unlock
drivers/scst/iscsi-scst/nthread.c:1614:17: warning: context imbalance in 'scst_do_job_wr' - unexpected unlock

drivers/scst/scst_local/scst_local.c:554:30: warning: context imbalance in 'scst_local_queuecommand' - unexpected unlock
The patch below has been tested by comparing the output of
"scripts/run-regression-tests 2.6.30.3" before and after the patch was applied.

the most recent versions (checkpatch 2.6.28 / latest sparse git version) and
that were not reported by previous versions (checkpatch 2.6.27 / sparse 0.4.1).
The patch below fixes the following issues:
* Removed trailing space in iscsi-scst/README_in-tree.
* Fixed sparse complaints about functions that were not declared static.
* Fixed sparse complaints about casts between address spaces: such casts are
now either fixed or explicit (via the __force keyword).
The patch below has been verified by checking the output produced by:
scripts/run-regression-tests -k 2.6.28.1

Apparently not all messages reported by this version are correct. So I switched
back to the last released sparse version (0.4.1). The patch below fixes all
errors and warnings reported by sparse 0.4.1 on the SCST source code.

for checkpatch warnings on trailing whitespace and lines that were over 80
columns.
This patch has been verified by reviewing it carefully and by verifying the
output files of the command scripts/run-regression-tests -k 2.6.27.6.

code, mainly about lines that exceeded 80 columns. As you can see in the patch
below most lines that were too long have been split, but some code has also
been moved into helper functions in order to keep the code readable. No
functionality has been changed.
This patch has been verified as follows:
- Reread the patch carefully.
- Verified that the iSCSI target kernel module still loads.
- Verified the output generated by scripts/run-regression-tests -k 2.6.27.5.

1. scst_local can work with scst_user's devices
2. scst_user now compatible with iscsi-scst if put_page_callback not applied
+ some cosmetics

upcoming checkpatch version will complain about these:
* Make sure that a single tab is used for indenting instead of four spaces.
* Removed spaces from around the colon used for specifying field widths.
* Remove trailing whitespace in .txt files.
This patch has been tested by verifying that:
- the output of svn diff -x -w is empty, i.e. that the patch only affects
whitespace.
- the SCST out-of-tree source code still compiles fine against the 2.6.25 kernel
(make -s clean && make -C srpt -s clean && make -s scst iscsi-scst && make -C srpt -s).

- Zero-copy feature, introduced by put_page_callback patch, made kernel compile time configurable via CONFIG_TCP_ZERO_COPY_TRANSFER_COMPLETION_NOTIFICATION option. If you upgrade from earlier versions, see the corresponding "[CAUTION]" e-mail in scst-devel mailing list about possible compatibility problems.
- SRP target temporary removed from "all" and "install" the main Makefile targets, since it isn't compiled on 2.6.26
- Minor fixes and cleanups

an external module. When applying the SCST kernel patch to the mainstream
kernel tree with debugging and/or tracing enabled however, the resulting code
triggers a compiler error. This is because the symbols DEBUG and TRACING
conflict with symbols with the same named defined in unrelated kernel headers.
The patch below resolves these conflicts by renaming the following preprocessor
symbols:
- DEBUG into CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG.
- DEBUG_DIGEST_FAILURES into CONFIG_SCST_ISCSI_DEBUG_DIGEST_FAILURES.
- DEBUG_OOM into CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_OOM.
- DEBUG_RETRY into CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_RETRY.
- DEBUG_SN into CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_SN.
- DEBUG_TM into CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_TM.
- EXTRACHECKS into CONFIG_SCST_EXTRACHECKS.
- SCST_HIGHMEM into CONFIG_SCST_HIGHMEM.
- STRICT_SERIALIZING into CONFIG_SCST_STRICT_SERIALIZING.
- TM_DBG_GO_OFFLINE into CONFIG_SCST_TM_DBG_GO_OFFLINE. Mapped 0/1 values
into macro undefined / macro defined.
- TRACING into CONFIG_SCST_TRACING.
- USE_EXPECTED_VALUES into CONFIG_SCST_USE_EXPECTED_VALUES.
- In qla_isp/linux/isp_scst.c, renamed DEBUG into DEBUG_ISP_SCST.
- In qla_isp/..., renamed SCSI_TARGET in SCST_SCSI_TARGET.
- In qla_isp/..., renamed SCSI_TARGET_DEV in SCST_SCSI_TARGET_DEV.
Additionally, all CONFIG_SCSI_TARGET* macro's are renamed into CONFIG_SCST* in
order to avoid confusion between the STGT CONFIG-symbols and the SCST CONFIG-
symbols.
The following additional options are now configurable through Kconfig:
- CONFIG_SCST_ISCSI_DEBUG_DIGEST_FAILURES
- CONFIG_SCST_STRICT_SERIALIZING
- CONFIG_SCST_STRICT_SECURITY
- CONFIG_SCST_ALLOW_PASSTHROUGH_IO_SUBMIT_IN_SIRQ
- CONFIG_SCST_ABORT_CONSIDER_FINISHED_TASKS_AS_NOT_EXISTING
- CONFIG_SCST_USE_EXPECTED_VALUES
- CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_OOM
- CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_RETRY
- CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_SN
- CONFIG_SCST_DEBUG_TM
- CONFIG_SCST_TM_DBG_GO_OFFLINE
The patch below has been verified as follows:
- Verified that the following command does not print any new warning messages:
make -s clean && make -C srpt -s clean && make -s scst iscsi-scst && make -C srpt -s
- Verified as follows that the internal SCST patches still apply cleanly:
for p in *patch; do patch -p0 --dry-run -f -s <$p; done
- Checked that the patch generated by generate-kernel-patch still applies
cleanly to the 2.6.25.7 kernel, and that the patched kernel tree still
compiles, installs and boots fine, that the iscsi-scst, ib_srpt,
scst_disk and scst_vdisk modules still load, and that iSCSI communication
still works fine. All SCST kernel configuration options that could be
enabled have been enabled during this test.
