30b0c37b27 [SCSI] implement scsi_data_buffer
In preparation for bidi we abstract all IO members of scsi_cmnd,
that will need to duplicate, into a substructure.

- Group all IO members of scsi_cmnd into a scsi_data_buffer
  structure.
- Adjust accessors to new members.
- scsi_{alloc,free}_sgtable receive a scsi_data_buffer instead of
  scsi_cmnd. And work on it.
- Adjust scsi_init_io() and  scsi_release_buffers() for above
  change.
- Fix other parts of scsi_lib/scsi.c to members migration. Use
  accessors where appropriate.

- fix Documentation about scsi_cmnd in scsi_host.h

- scsi_error.c
  * Changed needed members of struct scsi_eh_save.
  * Careful considerations in scsi_eh_prep/restore_cmnd.

- sd.c and sr.c
  * sd and sr would adjust IO size to align on device's block
    size so code needs to change once we move to scsi_data_buff
    implementation.
  * Convert code to use scsi_for_each_sg
  * Use data accessors where appropriate.

- tgt: convert libsrp to use scsi_data_buffer

- isd200: This driver still bangs on scsi_cmnd IO members,
  so need changing

[jejb: rebased on top of sg_table patches fixed up conflicts
and used the synergy to eliminate use_sg and sg_count]

210ba1d172 [SCSI] sr: update to follow tray status correctly
Based on an original patch from: David Martin <tasio@tasio.net>

When trying to get the drive status via ioctl CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS, with
no disk it gives CDS_TRAY_OPEN even if the tray is closed.

ioctl works as expected with ide-cd driver.

7b3d9545f9 Revert "scsi: revert "[SCSI] Get rid of scsi_cmnd->done""
This reverts commit ac40532ef0, which gets
us back the original cleanup of 6f5391c283.

It turns out that the bug that was triggered by that commit was
apparently not actually triggered by that commit at all, and just the
testing conditions had changed enough to make it appear to be due to it.

The real problem seems to have been found by Peter Osterlund:

  "pktcdvd sets it [block device size] when opening the /dev/pktcdvd
   device, but when the drive is later opened as /dev/scd0, there is
   nothing that sets it back.  (Btw, 40944 is possible if the disk is a
   CDRW that was formatted with "cdrwtool -m 10236".)

   The problem is that pktcdvd opens the cd device in non-blocking mode
   when pktsetup is run, and doesn't close it again until pktsetup -d is
   run.  The effect is that if you meanwhile open the cd device,
   blkdev.c:do_open() doesn't call bd_set_size() because
   bdev->bd_openers is non-zero."

In particular, to repeat the bug (regardless of whether commit
6f5391c283 is applied or not):

  " 1. Start with an empty drive.
    2. pktsetup 0 /dev/scd0
    3. Insert a CD containing an isofs filesystem.
    4. mount /dev/pktcdvd/0 /mnt/tmp
    5. umount /mnt/tmp
    6. Press the eject button.
    7. Insert a DVD containing a non-writable filesystem.
    8. mount /dev/scd0 /mnt/tmp
    9. find /mnt/tmp -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sha1sum >/dev/null
    10. If the DVD contains data beyond the physical size of a CD, you
        get I/O errors in the terminal, and dmesg reports lots of
        "attempt to access beyond end of device" errors."

which in turn is because the nested open after the media change won't
cause the size to be set properly (because the original open still holds
the block device, and we only do the bd_set_size() when we don't have
other people holding the device open).

The proper fix for that is probably to just do something like

	bdev->bd_inode->i_size = (loff_t)get_capacity(disk)<<9;

in fs/block_dev.c:do_open() even for the cases where we're not the
original opener (but *not* call bd_set_size(), since that will also
change the block size of the device).

6f5391c283 [SCSI] Get rid of scsi_cmnd->done
The ULD ->done callback moves into the scsi_driver.  By moving the call
to scsi_io_completion() from scsi_blk_pc_done() to scsi_finish_command(),
we can eliminate the latter entirely.  By returning 'good_bytes' from
the ->done callback (rather than invoking scsi_io_completion()), we can
stop exporting scsi_io_completion().

Also move the prototypes from sd.h to sd.c as they're all internal anyway.
Rename sd_rw_intr to sd_done and rw_intr to sr_done.

7f9a6bc4e9 [SCSI] move ULD attachment into the prep function
One of the intents of the block prep function was to allow ULDs to use
it for preprocessing.  The original SCSI model was to have a single prep
function and add a pointer indirect filter to build the necessary
commands.  This patch reverses that, does away with the init_command
field of the scsi_driver structure and makes ULDs attach directly to the
prep function instead.  The value is really that it allows us to begin
to separate the ULDs from the SCSI mid layer (as long as they don't use
any core functions---which is hard at the moment---a ULD doesn't even
need SCSI to bind).

d7b8bcb0a0 [SCSI] modalias for scsi devices
The following patch adds support for sysfs/uevent modalias
attribute for scsi devices (like disks, tapes, cdroms etc),
based on whatever current sd.c, sr.c, st.c and osst.c drivers
supports.

The modalias format is like this:

 scsi:type-0x04

(for TYPE_WORM, handled by sr.c now).

Several comments.

o This hexadecimal type value is because all TYPE_XXX constants
  in include/scsi/scsi.h are given in hex, but __stringify() will
  not convert them to decimal (so it will NOT be scsi:type-4).
  Since it does not really matter in which format it is, while
  both modalias in module and modalias attribute match each other,
  I descided to go for that 0x%02x format (and added a comment in
  include/scsi/scsi.h to keep them that way), instead of changing
  them all to decimal.

o There was no .uevent routine for SCSI bus.  It might be a good
  idea to add some more ueven environment variables in there.

o osst.c driver handles tapes too, like st.c, but only SOME tapes.
  With this setup, hotplug scripts (or whatever is used by the
  user) will try to load both st and osst modules for all SCSI
  tapes found, because both modules have scsi:type-0x01 alias).
  It is not harmful, but one extra module is no good either.
  It is possible to solve this, by exporting more info in
  modalias attribute, including vendor and device identification
  strings, so that modalias becomes something like
    scsi:type-0x12:vendor-Adaptec LTD:device-OnStream Tape Drive
  and having that, match for all 3 attributes, not only device
  type.  But oh well, vendor and device strings may be large,
  and they do contain spaces and whatnot.
  So I left them for now, awaiting for comments first.

cd354f1ae7 [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h
After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
course of cleaning it up.

To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.

Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
by unnecessarily included header files).

631c228cd0 [SCSI] hide EH backup data outside the scsi_cmnd
Currently struct scsi_cmnd has various fields that are used to backup
original data after the corresponding fields have been overridden for
EH commands.  This means drivers can easily get at it and misuse it.
Due to the old_ naming this doesn't happen for most of them, but two
that have different names have been used wrong a lot (see previous
patch).  Another downside is that they unessecarily bloat the scsi_cmnd
size.

This patch moves them onstack in scsi_send_eh_cmnd to fix those two
issues aswell as allowing future EH fixes like moving the EH command
submissions to use SG lists like everything else.

03aba2f795 [SCSI] sd/scsi_lib simplify sd_rw_intr and scsi_io_completion
This patch simplifies "good_bytes" computation in sd_rw_intr().
sd: "good_bytes" computation is always done in terms of the resolution
of the device's medium, since after that it is the number of good bytes
we pass around and other layers/contexts (as opposed ot sd) can translate
that to their own resolution (block layer:512).  It also makes
scsi_io_completion() processing more straightforward, eliminating the
3rd argument to the function.

It also fixes a couple of bugs like not checking return value,
using "break" instead of "return;", etc.

I've been running with this patch for some time now on a
test (do-it-all) system.

transport class using scsi_wait_req().

51490c89f9 [SCSI] sr.c: Fix getting wrong size
Here's the problem. Try to do this on 2.6.12:
- Kill udev and HAL
- Insert a CD-ROM into a SCSI or USB CD-ROM drive
- Run dd if=/dev/scd0
- cat /sys/block/sr0/size
- Eject the CD, insert a different one
- Run dd if=/dev/scd0
This is likely to do "access beyond the end of device", if you let it
- cat /sys/block/sr0/size
This shows the size of a previous CD, even though dd was supposed
to revalidate the device.
- Run dd if=/dev/scd0
The second run of dd works correctly!

The bug was introduced in 2.5.31, when Al fixes the recursive opens
in partitioning. Before, the code worked like this:
- Block layer called cdrom_open directly
- cdrom_open called sr_open
- sr_open called check_disk_change
- check_disk_change called sr_media_change
- sr_media_change did cd->needs_disk_change=1
- before returning sr_open tested cd->needs_disk_change
  and called get_sector_size.

In 2.6.12, the check_disk_change is called from cdrom_open only. Thus:
- Block layer calls sr_bd_open
- sr_bd_open calls cdrom_open
- cdrom_open calls sr_open
- sr_open tests cd->needs_disk_change, which wasn't set yet; returns
- cdrom_open calls check_disk_change
- check_disk_change calls sr_media_change
- sr_media_change does cd->needs_disk_change=1, but nobody cares

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!
