prevent scsi_sense_desc() from deferencing a NULL pointer when a drive
happens to return one of these sense keys.
Reported by: Michael Samuel <michael@miknet.net>
With the recent changes in the CAM error handling, some problems in
the error handling of sa(4) have been uncovered. Basically, a number
of conditions that are not actually errors have been mistreated as
genuine errors. In particular:
. Trying to read in variable length mode with a mismatched blocksize
between the on-tape (virtual) blocks and the read(2) supplied buffer
size, causing an ILI SCSI condition, have caused an attempt to retry
the supposedly `errored' transfer, causing the tape to be read
continuously until it eventually hit EOM. Since by default any
simple mt(1) operation does an initial test read, an `mt stat' was
sufficient to trigger this bug.
Note that it's Justin's opinion that treating a NO SENSE as an EIO
is another bug in CAM. I feel not authorized to fix cam_periph.c
without another confirmation that i'm on the right track, however.
. Hitting a filemark caused the read(2) syscall to return EIO, instead
of returning a `short read'. Note that the current fix only solves
this problem in variable length mode. Fixed length mode uses a
different code path, and since i didn't grok all the intentions behind
that handling, i did not touch it (IOW: it's still broken, and you get
an EIO upon hitting a filemark).
The solution is to keep track of those conditions inside saerror(),
and upon completion to not call cam_periph_error() in that case. We
need to make sure that the device gets unfrozen if needed though (in
case of actual errors, cam_periph_error() does this on our behalf).
Not objected by: mjacob (who currently doesn't have the time to
review the patch)
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.

not be retried. It is an indication that there was an error that was
corrected during the execution of the command. This is per ANSI SCSI2
spec.
It's possible that these should also be noted to the console (as indicative,
perhaps, of growing media defect lists in drives), but the default of
printing errors out if bootverbose in this case is probably enough.
Also, there'd been a missing ERESTART for that clause anyway.
2. If you have an ABORTED COMMAND, it's almost invariably a SCSI parity
error. You should never be silent about these since users should do something
about this if it occurs (moving that power cord *away* from the SCSI cable is
always a good first start). This should print irrespective of bootverbose
because it's an actual real error even if we retry a transmission.

It should be noted that there is a degenerate case where soft tape
location will be lost (not causing a frozen state- but causing
the loss of reporting fileno/blockno)- that's where you backspace
over a filemark- you stop backspacing as soon as you cross the
filemark, but you have no idea what the record number now is because
you have no idea how many records you are into the file you just
backed into. Such is life.
While I'm at it, also pick up residuals from writing filemarks.

CDs.
With audio CDs, you can't just do a READ(10) call on most drives without
first setting the blocksize with a mode select command. The disklabel code
does a read of the first sector of the media to find a label if it exists.
This caused drives to return an error when an audio CD was in the drive,
due to the problem described above.
The solution is to read the table of contents on the CD, and only attempt
to read the disklabel if the first track is a data track.
This works on all the various CD and DVD media I have tried, but further
testing (especially with Video CDs and other mode 2 media) will be
needed to determine if this is a universal solution.
