ha->max_npiv_vports is taken from firmware (mcp->mb[11]) and only
constrained so that (max_npiv_vports + 1) is a multiple of
MIN_MULTI_ID_FABRIC, which permits values of 63, 127, 191 and 255.
NPIV vports are then allocated up to that count.
VP enable uses the VP_CONFIG IOCB, which addresses a vport through a
plain vp_index byte, so a vp_index beyond 128 is enabled without issue.
VP disable, however, uses the VP_CTRL IOCB, which selects target vports
through the fixed 128-bit vp_idx_map bitmap. qla24xx_control_vp()
rejects a vp_index past that bitmap and the IOCB builder cannot set a bit
beyond 127, yet qla24xx_vport_delete() frees the local state regardless.
A vport with vp_index > 128 can therefore be created and enabled but
never disabled, leaving it permanently active in firmware: a resource
leak.
Cap ha->max_npiv_vports at init to the vp_idx_map capacity so such
vports are never created. This collapses 191/255 to 127 (still
modulo-valid) and leaves the real-world 63/127 cases unaffected.

[ commit 2ac6a829843cf3df522d19e091276109b94c4c7a upstream ]
Overview
This is the source code repository of the SCST project. SCST is a collection of Linux kernel drivers that implement SCSI target functionality. The SCST project includes:
- The SCST core in the scst/ subdirectory.
- A tool for loading, saving and modifying the SCST configuration in directory scstadmin/.
- Several SCSI target drivers in the directories iscsi-scst/, qla2x00t-32gbit/, qla2x00t/, srpt/, scst_local/ and fcst/.
- User space programs in the usr/ subdirectory, e.g. fileio_tgt.
- Various documentation in the doc/ subdirectory.
Documentation
- Building and installing SCST.
- Build options: Clang, cross-compilation, and kernel module signing.
- Configuration and administration: targets, devices,
LUNs, and
/etc/scst.conf. - Core and device handlers: operating modes, module parameters, and sysfs configuration.
- Target drivers: iSCSI, iSER, QLogic Fibre Channel, SRP, FCoE, and local loopback.
- Performance tuning.
- Clustered persistent reservations: synchronization through DLM.
- T10 protection information: data integrity modes and configuration.
- Developer references: architecture and userspace handler interface (SGML sources), and sysfs interface rules.
- Contributing: code style, commit conventions, local checks, and guides to KUnit and component testing.
Current master packages
Prebuilt x86_64 packages from the latest successfully published master
build are available in the rolling
master-rpm prerelease.
These are development snapshots, not SCST releases.
The snapshot contains RPM bundles for selected Rocky Linux and Oracle Linux
UEK kernels. It also contains Ubuntu LTS bundles with scst-dkms, scstadmin
and iscsi-scst binary packages and their Debian source package files. Exact
distribution releases and RPM kernel versions are included in the asset names.
Every .tar.gz bundle has a matching .sha256 file. The complete snapshot is
replaced after each successful package workflow for the current master
commit.
QLogic target driver
Two QLogic target drivers are included in the SCST project.
The default driver is located in the qla2x00t-32gbit directory. It is the newer one.
May anyone wish to switch back to the older driver that only supported up to
16 Gb/s adapters, it is located in qla2x00t directory. To make use of the
older driver build scst with environment variable QLA_32GBIT=no set.
