- Make scan aborted by event restart immediately and infinitely.
- Improve handling of some loop events from firmware.
- Remove loop down timer, adding its functionality to scanner thread.
- Some more unification and simplification.
Hacks to enable target mode there complicated code, while didn't really
work. And for outdated hardware fixing it is not really interesting.
Initiator mode tested with Qlogic 1080 adapter is still working fine.
While later firmware always registers for RSCN requests, older one does
it only in initiator mode. But in target mode there RSCN can be the only
way to detect gone intiator.
For those chips we are not receiving login events, adding initiators
based on ATIO requests. But there is no port ID in that structure, so
in fabric mode we have to explicitly fetch it from firmware to be able
to do normal scan after that.
This change simplifies and unifies port adding/updating for loop and
fabric scanners. It also fixes problems with scanning restarts due to
concurrent port databases changes. It also fixes many cosmetic issues.
Modern cards in most cases operate abstract port handles, that have no
any relation to real loop IDs. Leave loopid used only where it really
goes about local loop IDs.
While there, fix few more cases where LUNs were still printed in decimal.
For the most of chips (except anscient ones) port handlers have no relation
to port IDs. In such situation old code scanning first 125 handlers was
quite naive. Instead of doing that, send to chip single request to get full
list of port handlers available on specific virtual port and scan only them.
Old code had problems with case of several virtual ports enabled, when port
handlers allocated from global address space could easily go above 125.
This change was successfully tested on 23xx, 24xx and 25xx chips in loop
mode with 4 virtual initiator ports, each seing 50 virtual target ports.
Now on 24xx and above chips it is really possible to simulate several
virtual FC ports with single physical one. For example, it allows to
configure several targets in ctl.conf, assign each of them to separate
virtual port, and let user to control access to them with switch zoning.
I still doubt that all problems are solved there, but at now it passes
at least basic tests.
