SCSI-2 devices.
Some older tape devices claim to be SCSI-2, but actually do support
long position information. (Long position information includes
the current file mark.) For example, the COMPAQ SuperDLT1.
So we now only disable the check on SCSI-1 and older devices.
sys/cam/scsi/scsi_sa.c:
In saregister(), only disable fetching long position
information on SCSI-1 and older drives. Update the
comment to explain why.

tracking.
It is important to subtract the residual from the requested
transfer size to see how much data was actually transferred. With
tape drives in particular, it is common to request more data than is
returned.
Also, add I/O latency tracking for CAM requests issued by
cam_periph_runccb().
If the caller supplies a struct devstat, and the I/O is a SCSI or
ATA I/O, we will track the elapsed time to provide I/O latency
statistics for the request.
sys/cam/scsi/cam_periph.c:
In cam_periph_runccb(), subtract the residual when reporting I/O
totals to devstat(9) for SCSI and ATA passthrough requests.
In cam_periph_runccb(), grab the I/O start time and supply
the start time to devstat_end_transaction() so that it can
calculate the elapsed I/O time.

The primary focus of these changes is to modernize FreeBSD's
tape infrastructure so that we can take advantage of some of the
features of modern tape drives and allow support for LTFS.
Significant changes and new features include:
o sa(4) driver status and parameter information is now exported via an
XML structure. This will allow for changes and improvements later
on that will not break userland applications. The old MTIOCGET
status ioctl remains, so applications using the existing interface
will not break.
o 'mt status' now reports drive-reported tape position information
as well as the previously available calculated tape position
information. These numbers will be different at times, because
the drive-reported block numbers are relative to BOP (Beginning
of Partition), but the block numbers calculated previously via
sa(4) (and still provided) are relative to the last filemark.
Both numbers are now provided. 'mt status' now also shows the
drive INQUIRY information, serial number and any position flags
(BOP, EOT, etc.) provided with the tape position information.
'mt status -v' adds information on the maximum possible I/O size,
and the underlying values used to calculate it.
o The extra sa(4) /dev entries (/dev/saN.[0-3]) have been removed.
The extra devices were originally added as place holders for
density-specific device nodes. Some OSes (NetBSD, NetApp's OnTap
and Solaris) have had device nodes that, when you write to them,
will automatically select a given density for particular tape drives.
This is a convenient way of switching densities, but it was never
implemented in FreeBSD. Only the device nodes were there, and that
sometimes confused users.
For modern tape devices, the density is generally not selectable
(e.g. with LTO) or defaults to the highest availble density when
the tape is rewritten from BOT (e.g. TS11X0). So, for most users,
density selection won't be necessary. If they do need to select
the density, it is easy enough to use 'mt density' to change it.
o Protection information is now supported. This is either a
Reed-Solomon CRC or CRC32 that is included at the end of each block
read and written. On write, the tape drive verifies the CRC, and
on read, the tape drive provides a CRC for the userland application
to verify.
o New, extensible tape driver parameter get/set interface.
o Density reporting information. For drives that support it,
'mt getdensity' will show detailed information on what formats the
tape drive supports, and what formats the tape drive supports.
o Some mt(1) functionality moved into a new mt(3) library so that
external applications can reuse the code.
o The new mt(3) library includes helper routines to aid in parsing
the XML output of the sa(4) driver, and build a tree of driver
metadata.
o Support for the MTLOAD (load a tape in the drive) and MTWEOFI
(write filemark immediate) ioctls needed by IBM's LTFS
implementation.
o Improve device departure behavior for the sa(4) driver. The previous
implementation led to hangs when the device was open.
o This has been tested on the following types of drives:
IBM TS1150
IBM TS1140
IBM LTO-6
IBM LTO-5
HP LTO-2
Seagate DDS-4
Quantum DLT-4000

Many tape driver changes, largely outlined above.
Increase the sa(4) driver read/write timeout from 4 to 32
minutes. This is based on the recommended values for IBM LTO
5/6 drives. This may also avoid timeouts for other tape
hardware that can take a long time to do retries and error
recovery. Longer term, a better way to handle this is to ask
the drive for recommended timeout values using the REPORT
SUPPORTED OPCODES command. Modern IBM and Oracle tape drives
at least support that command, and it would allow for more
accurate timeout values.
Add XML status generation. This is done with a series of
macros to eliminate as much duplicate code as possible. The
new XML-based status values are reported through the new
MTIOCEXTGET ioctl.
Add XML driver parameter reporting, using the new MTIOCPARAMGET
ioctl.
Add a new driver parameter setting interface, using the new
MTIOCPARAMSET and MTIOCSETLIST ioctls.
Add a new MTIOCRBLIM ioctl to get block limits information.
Add CCB/CDB building routines scsi_locate_16, scsi_locate_10,
and scsi_read_position_10().
scsi_locate_10 implements the LOCATE command, as does the
existing scsi_set_position() command. It just supports
additional arguments and features. If/when we figure out a
good way to provide backward compatibility for older
applications using the old function API, we can just revamp
scsi_set_position(). The same goes for
scsi_read_position_10() and the existing scsi_read_position()
function.
Revamp sasetpos() to take the new mtlocate structure as an
argument. It now will use either scsi_locate_10() or
scsi_locate_16(), depending upon the arguments the user
supplies. As before, once we change position we don't have a
clear idea of what the current logical position of the tape
drive is.
For tape drives that support long form position data, we
read the current position and store that for later reporting
after changing the position. This should help applications
like Bacula speed tape access under FreeBSD once they are
modified to support the new ioctls.
Add a new quirk, SA_QUIRK_NO_LONG_POS, that is set for all
drives that report SCSI-2 or older, as well as drives that
report an Illegal Request type error for READ POSITION with
the long format. So we should automatically detect drives
that don't support the long form and stop asking for it after
an initial try.
Add a partition number to the sa(4) softc.
Improve device departure handling. The previous implementation
led to hangs when the device was open.
If an application had the sa(4) driver open, and attempted to
close it after it went away, the cam_periph_release() call in
saclose() would cause the periph to get destroyed because that
was the last reference to it. Because destroy_dev() was
called from the sa(4) driver's cleanup routine (sacleanup()),
and would block waiting for the close to happen, a deadlock
would result.
So instead of calling destroy_dev() from the cleanup routine,
call destroy_dev_sched_cb() from saoninvalidate() and wait for
the callback.
Acquire a reference for devfs in saregister(), and release it
in the new sadevgonecb() routine when all devfs devices for
the particular sa(4) driver instance are gone.
Add a new function, sasetupdev(), to centralize setting
per-instance devfs device parameters instead of repeating the
code in saregister().
Add an open count to the softc, so we know how many
peripheral driver references are a result of open
sessions.
Add the D_TRACKCLOSE flag to the cdevsw flags so
that we get a 1:1 mapping of open to close calls
instead of a N:1 mapping.
This should be a no-op for everything except the
control device, since we don't allow more than one
open on non-control devices.
However, since we do allow multiple opens on the
control device, the combination of the open count
and the D_TRACKCLOSE flag should result in an
accurate peripheral driver reference count, and an
accurate open count.
The accurate open count allows us to release all
peripheral driver references that are the result
of open contexts once we get the callback from devfs.
sys/sys/mtio.h:
Add a number of new mt(4) ioctls and the requisite data
structures. None of the existing interfaces been removed
or changed.
This includes definitions for the following new ioctls:
MTIOCRBLIM /* get block limits */
MTIOCEXTLOCATE /* seek to position */
MTIOCEXTGET /* get tape status */
MTIOCPARAMGET /* get tape params */
MTIOCPARAMSET /* set tape params */
MTIOCSETLIST /* set N params */
usr.bin/mt/Makefile:
mt(1) now depends on libmt, libsbuf and libbsdxml.
usr.bin/mt/mt.1:
Document new mt(1) features and subcommands.
usr.bin/mt/mt.c:
Implement support for mt(1) subcommands that need to
use getopt(3) for their arguments.
Implement a new 'mt status' command to replace the old
'mt status' command. The old status command has been
renamed 'ostatus'.
The new status function uses the MTIOCEXTGET ioctl, and
therefore parses the XML data to determine drive status.
The -x argument to 'mt status' allows the user to dump out
the raw XML reported by the kernel.
The new status display is mostly the same as the old status
display, except that it doesn't print the redundant density
mode information, and it does print the current partition
number and position flags.
Add a new command, 'mt locate', that will supersede the
old 'mt setspos' and 'mt sethpos' commands. 'mt locate'
implements all of the functionality of the MTIOCEXTLOCATE
ioctl, and allows the user to change the logical position
of the tape drive in a number of ways. (Partition,
block number, file number, set mark number, end of data.)
The immediate bit and the explicit address bits are
implemented, but not documented in the man page.
Add a new 'mt weofi' command to use the new MTWEOFI ioctl.
This allows the user to ask the drive to write a filemark
without waiting around for the operation to complete.
Add a new 'mt getdensity' command that gets the XML-based
tape drive density report from the sa(4) driver and displays
it. This uses the SCSI REPORT DENSITY SUPPORT command
to get comprehensive information from the tape drive about
what formats it is able to read and write.
Add a new 'mt protect' command that allows getting and setting
tape drive protection information. The protection information
is a CRC tacked on to the end of every read/write from and to
the tape drive.

Replace iSCSI-specific LUN mapping mechanism with new one, working for any
ports. By default all ports are created without LUN mapping, exposing all
CTL LUNs as before. But, if needed, LUN mapping can be manually set on
per-port basis via ctladm. For its iSCSI ports ctld does it via ioctl(2).
The next step will be to teach ctld to work with FibreChannel ports also.
Respecting additional flexibility of the new mechanism, ctl.conf now allows
alternative syntax for LUN definition. LUNs can now be defined in global
context, and then referenced from targets by unique name, as needed. It
allows same LUN to be exposed several times via multiple targets.
While there, increase limit for LUNs per target in ctld from 256 to 1024.
Some initiators do not support LUNs above 255, but that is not our problem.

This includes a new summary mode (-s) for camcontrol defects that
quickly tells the user the most important thing: how many defects
are in the requested list. The actual location of the defects is
less important.
Modern drives frequently have more than the 8191 defects that can
be reported by the READ DEFECT DATA (10) command. If they don't
have that many grown defects, they certainly have more than 8191
defects in the primary (i.e. factory) defect list.
The READ DEFECT DATA (12) command allows for longer parameter
lists, as well as indexing into the list of defects, and so allows
reporting many more defects.
This has been tested with HGST drives and Seagate drives, but
does not fully work with Seagate drives. Once I have a Seagate
spec I may be able to determine whether it is possible to make it
work with Seagate drives.
scsi_da.h: Add a definition for the new long block defect
format.
Add bit and mask definitions for the new extended
physical sector and bytes from index defect
formats.
Add a prototype for the new scsi_read_defects() CDB
building function.
scsi_da.c: Add a new scsi_read_defects() CDB building function.
camcontrol(8) was previously composing CDBs manually.
This is long overdue.
camcontrol.c: Revamp the camcontrol defects subcommand. We now
go through multiple stages in trying to get defect
data off the drive while avoiding various drive
firmware quirks.
We start off by requesting the defect header with
the 10 byte command. If we're in summary mode (-s)
and the drive reports fewer defects than can be
represented in the 10 byte header, we're done.
Otherwise, we know that we need to issue the
12 byte command if the drive reports the maximum
number of defects.
If we're in summary mode, we're done if we get a
good response back when asking for the 12 byte header.
If the user has asked for the full list, then we
use the address descriptor index field in the 12
byte CDB to step through the list in 64K chunks.
64K is small enough to work with most any ancient
or modern SCSI controller.
Add support for printing the new long block defect
format, as well as the extended physical sector and
bytes from index formats. I don't have any drives
that support the new formats.
Add a hexadecimal output format that can be turned
on with -X.
Add a quiet mode (-q) that can be turned on with
the summary mode (-s) to just print out a number.
Revamp the error detection and recovery code for
the defects command to work with HGST drives.
Call the new scsi_read_defects() CDB building
function instead of rolling the CDB ourselves.

request when printing it out, so we don't run off

data to go undetected.
The probe code does an MD5 checksum of the inquiry data (and page
0x80 serial number if available) before doing a reprobe of an
existing device, and then compares a checksum after the probe to
see whether the device has changed.
This check was broken in January, 2000 by change 56146 when the extended
inquiry probe code was added.
In the extended inquiry probe case, it was calculating the checksum
a second time. The second time it included the updated inquiry
data from the short inquiry probe (first 36 bytes). So it wouldn't
catch cases where the vendor, product, revision, etc. changed.
This change will have the effect that when a device's inquiry data is
updated and a rescan is issued, it will disappear and then reappear.
This is the appropriate action, because if the inquiry data or serial
number changes, it is either a different device or the device
configuration may have changed significantly. (e.g. with updated
firmware.)

Technically read requests can be executed in any order or simultaneously
since they are not changing any data. But ZFS prefetcher goes crasy when
it receives consecutive requests from different threads. Since prefetcher
works on level of separate blocks, instead of two consecutive 128K requests
it may receive 32 8K requests in mixed order.
This patch is more workaround then a real fix, and it does not fix all of
prefetcher problems, but it improves sequential read speed by 3-4x times
in some configurations. On the other side it may hurt performance if
some backing store has no prefetch, that is why it is disabled by default
