The commands that timeout when a disk is forcibly removed may trigger libata to attempt recovery of the device. If libsas has decided to remove the device don't permit ata to continue to issue resets to its last known phy. The primary motivation for this patch is hotplug testing by writing 0 to /sys/class/sas_phy/phyX/enable. Without this check this test leads to libata issuing a reset and re-enabling the device that wants to be torn down. Signed-off-by:

In the direct-attached case this routine returns the phy on which this device was first discovered. Which is broken if we want to support wide-targets, as this phy reference can become stale even though the port is still active. In the expander-attached case this routine tries to lookup the phy by scanning the attached sas addresses of the parent expander, and BUG_ONs if it can't find it. However since eh and the libsas workqueue run independently we can still be attempting device recovery via eh after libsas has recorded the device as detached. This is even easier to hit now that eh is blocked while device domain rediscovery takes place, and that libata is fed more timed out commands increasing the chances that it will try to recover the ata device. Arrange for dev->phy to always point to a last known good phy, it may be stale after the port is torn down, but it will catch up for wide port reconfigurations, and never be NULL. Signed-off-by:

Commit 56dd2c06 "[SCSI] libsas: Don't issue commands to devices that have been hot-removed" marked the parent device of an end-device as gone when all the phys to the end device have been deleted. The expander device is still present until its parent is removed. This is a benign change until the smp_execute_task() path is taught to check ->gone. Signed-off-by:

Use ata_wait_after_reset() to poll for link recovery after a reset. This combined with sas_ha->eh_mutex prevents expander rediscovery from probing phys in an intermediate state. Local discovery does not have a mechanism to filter link status changes during this timeout, so it remains the responsibility of lldds to prevent premature port teardown. Although once all lldd's support ->lldd_ata_check_ready() that could be used as a gate to local port teardown. The signature fis is re-transmitted when the link comes back so we should be revalidating the ata device class, but that is left to a future patch. Signed-off-by:

Link resets leave ata affiliations intact, so arrange for libsas to make an effort to avoid dropping the device due to a slow-to-recover link. Towards this end carry out reset in the host workqueue so that it can check for ata devices and kick the reset request to libata. Hard resets, in contrast, bypass libata since they are meant for associating an ata device with another initiator in the domain (tears down affiliations). Need to add a new transport_sas_phy_reset() since the current sas_phy_reset() is a utility function to libsas lldds. They are not prepared for it to loop back into eh. Signed-off-by:

Since sata devices can take several seconds to recover the link on reset the 0.5 seconds that libsas currently waits may not be enough. Instead if we are rediscovering a phy that was previously attached to a sata device let libata handle any resets to encourage the device to transmit the initial fis. Once sas_ata_hard_reset() and lldds learn how to honor 'deadline' libsas should stop encountering phys in an intermediate state, until then this will loop until the fis is transmitted or ->attached_sas_addr gets cleared, but in the more likely initial discovery case we keep existing behavior.

lldds use the SAS_TASK_NEED_DEV_RESET interface to request that eh perform a reset. In the sata device case defer the commands that triggered the reset to libata-eh context so it can perform its pre and post reset management. In the sas_ata_post_internal() case the reset request is falling on deaf ears as the sas_task is immediately destroyed without any reset action. Since it is currently a nop, and likely superfluous given the conversion to new-style libata-eh, just drop the request. Signed-off-by:

libsas-eh if it successfully aborts an ata command will hide the timeout condition (AC_ERR_TIMEOUT) from libata. The command likely completes with the all-zero task->task_status it started with. Instead, interpret a TMF_RESP_FUNC_COMPLETE as the end of the sas_task but keep the scmd around for libata-eh to handle. Tested-by:

Until we have told the lldd to forget a task a timed out operation can return from the hardware at any time. Since completion frees the task we need to make sure that no tasks run their normal completion handler once eh has decided to manage the task. Similar to ata_scsi_cmd_error_handler() freeze completions to let eh judge the outcome of the race. Task collector mode is problematic because it presents a situation where a task can be timed out and aborted before the lldd has even seen it. For this case we need to guarantee that a task that an lldd has been told to forget does not get queued after the lldd says "never seen it". With sas_scsi_timed_out we achieve this with the ->task_queue_flush mutex, rather than adding more time. Signed-off-by:

Since sas_ata does not implement ->freeze(), completions for scmds and internal commands can still arrive concurrent with ata_scsi_cmd_error_handler() and sas_ata_post_internal() respectively. By the time either of those is called libata has committed to completing the qc, and the ATA_PFLAG_FROZEN flag tells sas_ata_task_done() it has lost the race. In the sas_ata_post_internal() case we take on the additional responsibility of freeing the sas_task to close the race with sas_ata_task_done() freeing the the task while sas_ata_post_internal() is in the process of invoking ->lldd_abort_task().

Prior to the conversion to the new-style libata-eh sas_ata_task_done() may have been the last opportunity to clean up the scmd, but now libata-eh explicitly handles this case. It also races against sas-eh. If a lldd completes a task after SAS_TASK_STATE_ABORTED is set it could trigger a spurious decrement of shost->host_failed. Current lldds have the band-aid of checking SAS_TASK_STATE_ABORTED before calling ->task_done(), but better to just let the scmds escalate to libata for race free cleanup. Signed-off-by:

sas_discover_sata() notifies lldds of sata devices twice. Once to allow the 'identify' to be sent, and a second time to allow aic94xx (the only libsas driver that cares about sata_dev.identify) to setup NCQ parameters before the device becomes known to the midlayer. Replace this double notification and intervening 'identify' with an explicit ->lldd_ata_set_dmamode notification. With this change all ata internal commands are issued by libata, so we no longer need sas_issue_ata_cmd(). The data from the identify command only needs to be cached in one location so ata_device.id replaces domain_device.sata_dev.identify. Signed-off-by:

libata error handling provides for a timeout for link recovery. libsas must not rescan for previously known devices in this interval otherwise it may remove a device that is simply waiting for its link to recover. Let libata-eh make the determination of when the link is stable and prevent libsas (host workqueue) from taking action while this determination is pending. Using a mutex (ha->disco_mutex) to flush and disable revalidation while eh is running requires any discovery action that may block on eh be moved to its own context outside the lock. Probing ATA devices explicitly waits on ata-eh and the cache-flush-io issued during device removal may also pend awaiting eh completion. Essentially any rphy add/remove activity needs to run outside the lock. This adds two new cleanup states for sas_unregister_domain_devices() 'allocated-but-not-probed', and 'flagged-for-destruction'. In the 'allocated-but-not-probed' state dev->rphy points to a rphy that is known to have not been through a sas_rphy_add() event. At domain teardown check if this device is still pending probe and cleanup accordingly. Similarly if a device has already been queued for removal then sas_unregister_domain_devices has nothing to do.

Each libsas driver (mvsas, pm8001, and isci) has invented a different method for managing the ap->lock. The lock is held by the ata ->queuecommand() path. mvsas drops it prior to acquiring any internal locks which allows it to hold its internal lock across calls to task->task_done(). This capability is important as it is the only way the driver can flush task->task_done() instances to guarantee that it no longer has any in-flight references to a domain_device at ->lldd_dev_gone() time.

When an lldd invokes ->notify_port_event() it can trigger a chain of libsas events to: 1/ form the port and find the direct attached device 2/ if the attached device is an expander perform domain discovery A call to flush_workqueue() will only flush the initial port formation work. Currently libsas users need to call scsi_flush_work() up to the max depth of chain (which will grow from 2 to 3 when ata discovery is moved to its own discovery event). Instead of open coding multiple calls switch to use drain_workqueue() to flush sas work. drain_workqueue() does not handle new work submitted during the drain so libsas needs a bit of infrastructure to hold off unchained work submissions while a drain is in flight. A lldd ->notify() event is considered 'unchained' while a sas_discover_event() is 'chained'. As Tejun notes: "For now, I think it would be best to add private wrapper in libsas to support deferring unchained work items while draining." Signed-off-by:

We have experienced several devices which fail in a fashion we do not currently handle gracefully in SCSI. After a failure these devices will respond to the SCSI primary command set (INQUIRY, TEST UNIT READY, etc.) but any command accessing the storage medium will time out. The following patch adds an callback that can be used by upper level drivers to inspect the results of an error handling command. This in turn has been used to implement additional checking in the SCSI disk driver. If a medium access command fails twice but TEST UNIT READY succeeds both times in the subsequent error handling we will offline the device. The maximum number of failed commands required to take a device offline can be tweaked in sysfs. Also add a new error flag to scsi_debug which allows this scenario to be easily reproduced.

The virtio-scsi HBA is the basis of an alternative storage stack for QEMU-based virtual machines (including KVM). Compared to virtio-blk it is more scalable, because it supports many LUNs on a single PCI slot), more powerful (it more easily supports passthrough of host devices to the guest) and more easily extensible (new SCSI features implemented by QEMU should not require updating the driver in the guest).
