# 260387 06-Jan-2014 scottl

MFC Alexander Motin's direct dispatch, multi-queue, and finer-grained
locking support for CAM

r256826:
Fix several target mode SIMs to not blindly clear ccb_h.flags field of
ATIO CCBs. Not all CCB flags there belong to them.

r256836:
Remove hard limit on number of BIOs handled with one ATA TRIM request.

r256843:
Merge CAM locking changes from the projects/camlock branch to radically
reduce lock congestion and improve SMP scalability of the SCSI/ATA stack,
preparing the ground for the coming next GEOM direct dispatch support.

r256888:
Unconditionally acquire periph reference on CCB allocation failure.

r256895:
Fix memory and references leak due to unfreed path.

r256960:
Move CAM_UNQUEUED_INDEX setting to the last moment and under the periph lock.
This fixes race condition with cam_periph_ccbwait(), causing use-after-free.

r256975:
Minor (mostly cosmetical) addition to r256960.

r257054:
Some microoptimizations for da and ada drivers:
- Replace ordered_tag_count counter with single flag;
- From da remove outstanding_cmds counter, duplicating pending_ccbs list;
- From da_softc remove unused links field.

r257482:
Fix lock recursion, triggered by `smartctl -a /dev/adaX`.

r257501:
Make getenv_*() functions and respectively TUNABLE_*_FETCH() macros not
allocate memory and so not require sleepable environment. getenv() has
already used on-stack temporary storage, so just use it more rationally.
getenv_string() receives buffer as argument, so don't need another one.

r257914:
Some CAM locks polishing:
- Fix LOR and possible lock recursion when handling high-power commands.
Introduce new lock to protect left power quota and list of frozen devices.
- Correct locking around xpt periph creation.
- Remove seems never used XPT_FLAG_OPEN xpt periph flag.

Again, Netflix assisted with testing the merge, but all of the credit goes
to Alexander and iX Systems.

# 255126 01-Sep-2013 mav

Add debug trace points for freeze/release device queue.


# 236712 07-Jun-2012 mav

To make CAM debugging easier, compile in some debug flags (CAM_DEBUG_INFO,
CAM_DEBUG_CDB, CAM_DEBUG_PERIPH and CAM_DEBUG_PROBE) by default.
List of these flags can be modified with CAM_DEBUG_COMPILE kernel option.
CAMDEBUG kernel option still enables all possible debug, if not overriden.

Additional 50KB of kernel size is a good price for the ability to debug
problems without rebuilding the kernel. In case where size is important,
debugging can be compiled out by setting CAM_DEBUG_COMPILE option to 0.


# 224806 12-Aug-2011 mjacob

Fixes for sure bus reference miscounting and potential device and
target reference miscounts. It also adds a helper function to get
the current reference counts for components of cam_path for debug
aid. One minor style(9) change.

# 223081 14-Jun-2011 gibbs

Lay groundwork in CAM for recording and reporting physical path and
other device attributes stored in the CAM Existing Device Table (EDT).
This includes some infrastructure requried by the enclosure services
driver to export physical path information.

Make the CAM device advanced info interface accept store requests.

sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.c:
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.h:
- Replace scsi_get_sas_addr() with a scsi_get_devid() which takes
a callback that decides whether to accept a particular descriptor.
Provide callbacks for NAA IEEE Registered addresses and for SAS
addresses, replacing the old function. This is needed because
the old function doesn't work for an enclosure address for a SAS
device, which is not flagged as a SAS address, but is NAA IEEE
Registered. It may be worthwhile merging this interface with the
devid match interface.
- Add a few more defines for some device ID fields.

sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.c:
- Update for the CCB_DEV_ADVINFO interface change.

cam/cam_xpt_internal.h:
- Add the new fields for the physical path string to the CAM EDT.
cam/cam_ccb.h:
- Rename CCB_GDEV_ADVINFO to simply CCB_DEV_ADVINFO, and the ccb
structure to ccb_dev_advinfo.
- Add a flag that changes this CCB's action to store, rather than
the default, retrieve.
- Add a new buffer type, CDAI_TYPE_PHYS_PATH, for the new CAM EDT
physpath field.
- Remove the never-implemented transport & proto flags.
cam/cam_xpt.c:
cam/cam_xpt.h:
- Add xpt_getattr(), which provides a wrapper for fetching a device's
attribute using the GEOM strings as key. This method currently
supports "GEOM::ident" and "GEOM::physpath".

Extend the XPT_DEV_MATCH api to allow a device search by device ID.
As far as the API is concerned, device ID is a binary blob to be
interpreted by the transport layer. The SCSI implementation assumes
it is an array of VPD device ID descriptors.

sys/cam/cam_ccb.h:
Create a new structure, device_id_match_pattern, and
update the XPT_DEV_MATCH datastructures and flags so
that this pattern type can be used.

sys/cam/cam_xpt.c:
- A single pattern matching on both inquiry data and device
ID is invalid. Report any violators.
- Pass device ID match requests through to the new routine
scsi_devid_match(). The direct call of a SCSI routine is
a layering violation, but no worse than the one a few
lines up that checks inquiry data. Defer cleaning this
up until our future, larger, rototilling of CAM.
- Zero out cam_ed and cam_et nodes on allocation. Prior to
this change, device_id_len and device_id were not inialized,
preventing proper detection of the presence of this
information.

sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.c:
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.h:
Add the scsi_match_devid() routine.

Add a helper function for extracting peripherial driver names

sys/cam/cam_periph.c:
sys/cam/cam_periph.h:
Add the cam_periph_list() method which fills an sbuf
with a comma delimited list of the peripheral instances
associated with a given CAM path.

Add a helper functions for SCSI commands used by the SES driver.

sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.c:
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_all.h:
Add structure definitions and csio filling functions for
the receive diagnostic results and send diagnostic commands.

Misc CAM XPT cleanups.

sys/cam/cam_xpt.c:
Broadcast AC_FOUND_DEVICE and AC_PATH_REGISTERED
events at the time async event handlers are attached
even when registering just for events on a partitular
SIM. Previously, you had to register for these
events on all SIMs in the system in order to get
the initial broadcast even though subsequent device
and path arrivals would be delivered.

sys/cam/cam_xpt.c:
Remove SIM mutex held asserts from path accessors.
CAM paths are reference counted and it is this
reference count, not the sim mutex, that garantees
they are stable.

# 221071 26-Apr-2011 mav

- Add shim to simplify migration to the CAM-based ATA. For each new adaX
device in /dev/ create symbolic link with adY name, trying to mimic old ATA
numbering. Imitation is not complete, but should be enough in most cases to
mount file systems without touching /etc/fstab.
- To know what behavior to mimic, restore ATA_STATIC_ID option in cases
where it was present before.
- Add some more details to UPDATING.


# 203108 28-Jan-2010 mav

MFp4: Large set of CAM inprovements.

- Unify bus reset/probe sequence. Whenever bus attached at boot or later,
CAM will automatically reset and scan it. It allows to remove duplicate
code from many drivers.
- Any bus, attached before CAM completed it's boot-time initialization,
will equally join to the process, delaying boot if needed.
- New kern.cam.boot_delay loader tunable should help controllers that
are still unable to register their buses in time (such as slow USB/
PCCard/ CardBus devices), by adding one more event to wait on boot.
- To allow synchronization between different CAM levels, concept of
requests priorities was extended. Priorities now split between several
"run levels". Device can be freezed at specified level, allowing higher
priority requests to pass. For example, no payload requests allowed,
until PMP driver enable port. ATA XPT negotiate transfer parameters,
periph driver configure caching and so on.
- Frozen requests are no more counted by request allocation scheduler.
It fixes deadlocks, when frozen low priority payload requests occupying
slots, required by higher levels to manage theit execution.
- Two last changes were holding proper ATA reinitialization and error
recovery implementation. Now it is done: SATA controllers and Port
Multipliers now implement automatic hot-plug and should correctly
recover from timeouts and bus resets.
- Improve SCSI error recovery for devices on buses without automatic sense
reporting, such as ATAPI or USB. For example, it allows CAM to wait, while
CD drive loads disk, instead of immediately return error status.
- Decapitalize diagnostic messages and make them more readable and sensible.
- Teach PMP driver to limit maximum speed on fan-out ports.
- Make boot wait for PMP scan completes, and make rescan more reliable.
- Fix pass driver, to return CCB to user level in case of error.
- Increase number of retries in cd driver, as device may return several UAs.


# 195534 10-Jul-2009 scottl

Separate the parallel scsi knowledge out of the core of the XPT, and
modularize it so that new transports can be created.

Add a transport for SATA

Add a periph+protocol layer for ATA

Add a driver for AHCI-compliant hardware.

Add a maxio field to CAM so that drivers can advertise their max
I/O capability. Modify various drivers so that they are insulated
from the value of MAXPHYS.

The new ATA/SATA code supports AHCI-compliant hardware, and will override
the classic ATA driver if it is loaded as a module at boot time or compiled
into the kernel. The stack now support NCQ (tagged queueing) for increased
performance on modern SATA drives. It also supports port multipliers.

ATA drives are accessed via 'ada' device nodes. ATAPI drives are
accessed via 'cd' device nodes. They can all be enumerated and manipulated
via camcontrol, just like SCSI drives. SCSI commands are not translated to
their ATA equivalents; ATA native commands are used throughout the entire
stack, including camcontrol. See the camcontrol manpage for further
details. Testing this code may require that you update your fstab, and
possibly modify your BIOS to enable AHCI functionality, if available.

This code is very experimental at the moment. The userland ABI/API has
changed, so applications will need to be recompiled. It may change
further in the near future. The 'ada' device name may also change as
more infrastructure is completed in this project. The goal is to
eventually put all CAM busses and devices until newbus, allowing for
interesting topology and management options.

Few functional changes will be seen with existing SCSI/SAS/FC drivers,
though the userland ABI has still changed. In the future, transports
specific modules for SAS and FC may appear in order to better support
the topologies and capabilities of these technologies.

The modularization of CAM and the addition of the ATA/SATA modules is
meant to break CAM out of the mold of being specific to SCSI, letting it
grow to be a framework for arbitrary transports and protocols. It also
allows drivers to be written to support discrete hardware without
jeopardizing the stability of non-related hardware. While only an AHCI
driver is provided now, a Silicon Image driver is also in the works.
Drivers for ICH1-4, ICH5-6, PIIX, classic IDE, and any other hardware
is possible and encouraged. Help with new transports is also encouraged.

# 169605 16-May-2007 scottl

Add a helper function for registering async callbacks. Besides
eliminating a lot of duplicated code, this also fixes a locking edge case.


# 168752 15-Apr-2007 scottl

Remove Giant from CAM. Drivers (SIMs) now register a mutex that CAM will
use to synchornize and protect all data objects that are used for that
SIM. Drivers that are not yet MPSAFE register Giant and operate as
usual. RIght now, no drivers are MPSAFE, though a few will be changed
in the coming week as this work settles down.

The driver API has changed, so all CAM drivers will need to be recompiled.
The userland API has not changed, so tools like camcontrol do not need to
be recompiled.


# 166896 23-Feb-2007 mjacob

Add an xpt_rescan function and a thread that will field
rescan requests. The purpose of this is to allow a SIM
(or other entities) to request a bus rescan and have it
then fielded in a different (process) context from the
caller.

There are probably better ways to accomplish this, but
it's a very small change that helps solve a number of
problems.

Rewrite of the CAM error recovery code.

Some of the major changes include:

- The SCSI error handling portion of cam_periph_error() has
been broken out into a number of subfunctions to better
modularize the code that handles the hierarchy of SCSI errors.
As a result, the code is now much easier to read.

- String handling and error printing has been significantly
revamped. We now use sbufs to do string formatting instead
of using printfs (for the kernel) and snprintf/strncat (for
userland) as before.

There is a new catchall error printing routine,
cam_error_print() and its string-based counterpart,
cam_error_string() that allow the kernel and userland
applications to pass in a CCB and have errors printed out
properly, whether or not they're SCSI errors. Among other
things, this helped eliminate a fair amount of duplicate code
in camcontrol.

We now print out more information than before, including
the CAM status and SCSI status and the error recovery action
taken to remedy the problem.

- sbufs are now available in userland, via libsbuf. This
change was necessary since most of the error printing code
is shared between libcam and the kernel.

- A new transfer settings interface is included in this checkin.
This code is #ifdef'ed out, and is primarily intended to aid
discussion with HBA driver authors on the final form the
interface should take. There is example code in the ahc(4)
driver that implements the HBA driver side of the new
interface. The new transfer settings code won't be enabled
until we're ready to switch all HBA drivers over to the new
interface.

src/Makefile.inc1,
lib/Makefile: Add libsbuf. It must be built before libcam,
since libcam uses sbuf routines.

libcam/Makefile: libcam now depends on libsbuf.

libsbuf/Makefile: Add a makefile for libsbuf. This pulls in the
sbuf sources from sys/kern.

bsd.libnames.mk: Add LIBSBUF.

camcontrol/Makefile: Add -lsbuf. Since camcontrol is statically
linked, we can't depend on the dynamic linker
to pull in libsbuf.

camcontrol.c: Use cam_error_print() instead of checking for
CAM_SCSI_STATUS_ERROR on every failed CCB.

sbuf.9: Change the prototypes for sbuf_cat() and
sbuf_cpy() so that the source string is now a
const char *. This is more in line wth the
standard system string functions, and helps
eliminate warnings when dealing with a const
source buffer.

Fix a typo.

cam.c: Add description strings for the various CAM
error status values, as well as routines to
look up those strings.

Add new cam_error_string() and
cam_error_print() routines for userland and
the kernel.

cam.h: Add a new CAM flag, CAM_RETRY_SELTO.

Add enumerated types for the various options
available with cam_error_print() and
cam_error_string().

cam_ccb.h: Add new transfer negotiation structures/types.

Change inq_len in the ccb_getdev structure to
be "reserved". This field has never been
filled in, and will be removed when we next
bump the CAM version.

cam_debug.h: Fix typo.

cam_periph.c: Modularize cam_periph_error(). The SCSI error
handling part of cam_periph_error() is now
in camperiphscsistatuserror() and
camperiphscsisenseerror().

In cam_periph_lock(), increase the reference
count on the periph while we wait for our lock
attempt to succeed so that the periph won't go
away while we're sleeping.

cam_xpt.c: Add new transfer negotiation code. (ifdefed
out)

Add a new function, xpt_path_string(). This
is a string/sbuf analog to xpt_print_path().

scsi_all.c: Revamp string handing and error printing code.
We now use sbufs for much of the string
formatting code. More of that code is shared
between userland the kernel.

scsi_all.h: Get rid of SS_TURSTART, it wasn't terribly
useful in the first place.

Add a new error action, SS_REQSENSE. (Send a
request sense and then retry the command.)
This is useful when the controller hasn't
performed autosense for some reason.

Change the default actions around a bit.

scsi_cd.c,
scsi_da.c,
scsi_pt.c,
scsi_ses.c: SF_RETRY_SELTO -> CAM_RETRY_SELTO. Selection
timeouts shouldn't be covered by a sense flag.

scsi_pass.[ch]: SF_RETRY_SELTO -> CAM_RETRY_SELTO.

Get rid of the last vestiges of a read/write
interface.

libkern/bsearch.c,
sys/libkern.h,
conf/files: Add bsearch.c, which is needed for some of the
new table lookup routines.

aic7xxx_freebsd.c: Define AHC_NEW_TRAN_SETTINGS if
CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE is defined.

sbuf.h,
subr_sbuf.c: Add the appropriate #ifdefs so sbufs can
compile and run in userland.

Change sbuf_printf() to use vsnprintf()
instead of kvprintf(), which is only available
in the kernel.

Change the source string for sbuf_cpy() and
sbuf_cat() to be a const char *.

Add __BEGIN_DECLS and __END_DECLS around
function prototypes since they're now exported
to userland.

kdump/mkioctls: Include stdio.h before cam.h since cam.h now
includes a function with a FILE * argument.
