  vdisk_blockio: Report invalid scatterlists
  
  It is possible for a target driver to pass a scatterlist via
  scst_cmd_set_tgt_sg() that is valid for the vdisk_fileio handler
  but not for the vdisk_blockio handler. Complain loudly if an invalid
  scatterlist is passed to vdisk_blockio because such scatterlists
  cause silent data corruption with most Linux block drivers.

  vfs_read() and vfs_write().

  qla2x00t: Copy entire SCST sense buffer to q2x ctio
  
  There seems to be a bug in passing sense information to QLA HBAs, where 
  the last 2 bytes of the sense data (ASC, ASCQ) are not copied to the low 
  level sense buffer.
  We encountered this in ESX, which relies on these 2 bytes to parse the 
  MISCOMPARE sense code (0xE1, 0x1D, 0x00).
  Bellow is a simple test to recreate this issue, but during vMotion 
  operations (where VMs are moved from one host to another), this may 
  cause the operation to fail leaving the VM in an inconsistent state.
  
  The test I ran to verify that we are indeed missing the bytes is the 
  following:
  1. Create a SCST based device
  2. Expose the device to 2 ESX hosts
  3. Format the device as VMFS5, create a test directory
  4. From both hosts, I start writing to this directory (no VMs involved, 
  just write normal files)
  
  At this stage, both ESX hosts try to take access to the directory.
  The VMFS filesystem contains a per-directory lock which is managed by 
  COMPARE AND WRITE command.
  Each ESX will attempt to change the VMFS lock location from unlocked to 
  locked to create the new file.
  
  Obviously there are bound to be failures (which are equivalent to 
  programming locking conflicts), these are reported by the MISCOMPARE 
  sense code.
  Upon these MISCOMPARE errors, the host will re-try taking the lock until 
  it succeeds, and will then proceed to perform the write operation on the 
  directory.
  
  Due to the bug in copying the sense buffer from the SCST core to the QLA 
  ctio, instead of the full sense code, only the key (0xE) is sent, and 
  ESX does not know how to handle it resulting in IO error.
  
  Here are the errors as they appear on the command line:
  /vmfs/volumes/54a297c4-ca5af1cc-7f94-002219d20f28/ats_test # 
  ./open_close_test-esx2.sh
  ./open_close_test-esx2.sh: line 8: can't create

  ./open_close_test-esx2.sh: line 8: can't create 
  ats_fileoptest-esx2_111.txt: Input/output error
  
  In the /var/log/vmkernel.log, we can see that the sense information is 
  missing (0xE, 0x0, 0x0) instead of (0xE, 0x1D, 0x0).

  fix (no IO errors, all the files are properly written to the directory).

  scst: Rework SCSI pass-through support for kernel versions >= 2.6.30
  
  Changes in this patch:
  - Rework the SCSI pass-through code such that for kernel versions
    >= 2.6.30 the scst_exec_req_fifo patch is no longer needed.
  - Modify the pass-through code such that blk_rq_append_bio() is only
    called for kernel version 2.6.30. For later kernel versions
    blk_make_request() is called instead.
  - Rework scst_scsi_exec_async().
  - Add debug tracing of SCSI pass-through result status.
  - Add a lockdep_assert_held() call in scsi_end_async().

  [PATCH] scst_local: Fix bidirectional command support
  
  scsi_setup_cmnd() sets sc_data_direction to DMA_TO_DEVICE for bidirectional
  commands. Hence test SCpnt->request->next_rq instead of sc_data_direction
  to figure out whether or not a command is bidirectional.

  scst_vdisk: Fix zero-copy read for tmpfs
  
  For some filesystems, e.g. tmpfs, address_space.readpage is NULL.
  Disable zero-copy reading for such filesystems. See also shmem_aops
  in mm/shmem.c. See also inode_init_always() and empty_aops in fs/inode.c.
  
  This patch avoids that the following call trace is triggered:

Overview
========

This is the SCST development repository. It contains not a single
project SCST as one can think, but a number of them, which are divided
as the following:

1. SCST core in scst/ subdirectory

2. Administration utility for SCST core scstadmin in scstadmin/

3. Target drivers in own subdirectories qla2x00t/, iscsi-scst/, etc.

4. User space programs in usr/ subdirectory, like fileio_tgt.

5. Some various docs in doc/ subdirectory.

Those subprojects are in most cases independent from each other,
although some of them depend from the SCST core. They put in the single
repository only to simplify their development, they are released
independently.

Thus, use "make all" only if you really need to build everything.
Otherwise build only what you need, like for iSCSI-SCST:

make scst scst_install iscsi iscsi_install

For more information about each subproject see their README files.


QLogic target driver
====================

QLogic target driver in qla2x00t/ is the old one, forked from qla2xxx
from kernel 2.6.26. It is not maintained anymore and not built by
default by the common Makefile targets, like "all".

You can find the latest version of this driver in git://git.qlogic.com/scst-qla2xxx.git.
It is now maintained by QLogic, hence located in the QLogic's git.

To integrate it into the SCST build tree you need:

1. Clone the QLogic git tree somewhere in your system.

2. Create in the SCST root, i.e. this directory, a subdirectory with name
qla2x00t_git

3. Symlink drivers/scsi/qla2xxx subdirectory in the cloned git tree to the
qla2x00t_git subdirectory

Thats all. Now "make all" and other common and QLA specific root
Makefile targets "magically" start working. For detail instructions how
to setup QLA target build environment see its README or HOWTO.

You can still build the old driver using qla_old* root Makefile targets.
