Unlike disk devices ZVOLs process all requests synchronously. That makes
impossible sending multiple requests to them from single thread. From the
other side ZVOLs have real d_read/d_write methods, which unlike d_strategy
can handle uio scatter/gather and have no strict I/O size limitations.
So, if ZVOL in "dev" mode is detected, use of d_read/d_write methods instead
of d_strategy allows to avoid pointless splitting of large requests into

That should make operation more kind to multi-initiator environment.
Without this, other initiators may find out that something bad happened
to their commands only via command timeout.
Testing shown that both original queued design with separate task queue,
and recent direct execution design had significant flaw: If abort request
arrives just after the victim, the last one may not be in the ooa_queue
yet, and so invisible for the task management function.
Unlike original queued implementation, use same queue for all SCSI and
TASK requests from the same initiator. That avoids races between them:
task functions are always executed in proper time, relatively to other
requests.
If port passed negative IID value, the function will try to allocate IID
from the pool of unused, based on passed wwpn or name arguments. It does
all its best to make IID unique and persistent across reconnects.
This makes persistent reservation properly work for iSCSI. Previously,
in case of reconnects, reservation could be unexpectedly lost, or even
migrate between intiators.
teardown, and new port creation during `service ctld restart`.
Close it by returning iSCSI port internal state, that allows to identify
dying ports, which should not be counted as existing, from really alive.
Instead make ports provide wanted port and target IDs, and LUNs provide
wanted LUN IDs. After that core Device ID VPD code only had to link all
of them together and add relative port and port group numbers.
LUN ID for iSCSI LUNs no longer created by CTL, but by ctld, and passed
to CTL as "scsiname" LUN option. This makes LUNs to report the same set
of IDs, independently from the port through which it is accessed, as
required by SCSI specifications.
Having single port for all iSCSI connections makes problematic implementing
some more advanced SCSI functionality in CTL, that require proper ports
enumeration and identification.
This change extends CTL iSCSI API, making ctld daemon to control list of
iSCSI ports in CTL. When new target is defined in config fine, ctld will
create respective port in CTL. When target is removed -- port will be
also removed after all active commands through that port properly aborted.
This change require ctld to be rebuilt to match the kernel.
As a minor side effect, this allows to have iSCSI targets without LUNs.
While that may look odd and not very useful, that is not incorrect.
Before iSCSI implementation CTL had no knowledge about frontend drivers,
it had only frontends, which really were ports (alike to LUNs, if comparing
to backends). But iSCSI added there ioctl() method, which does not belong
to frontend as a port, but belongs to a frontend driver.

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL

dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is

support to work for all LUNs with zeros in the lower 32-bits, which covers

Extended LUNs are stored with swizzled 16-bit word order so that, for
devices implementing LUN addressing (like SCSI-2), the numerical
representation of the LUN is identical with and without PIM_EXTLUNS. Thus
setting PIM_EXTLUNS keeps most behavior, and user-facing LUN IDs, unchanged.

The existing algorithm selects a preferred leaf vdev based on offset of the zio
request modulo the number of members in the mirror. It assumes the devices are
of equal performance and that spreading the requests randomly over both drives
will be sufficient to saturate them. In practice this results in the leaf vdevs
being under utilized.
The new algorithm takes into the following additional factors:
* Load of the vdevs (number outstanding I/O requests)
* The locality of last queued I/O vs the new I/O request.
Within the locality calculation additional knowledge about the underlying vdev
is considered such as; is the device backing the vdev a rotating media device.
This results in performance increases across the board as well as significant
increases for predominantly streaming loads and for configurations which don't

cam_periph_acquire() can return error if periph already invalidated, but
that may be unacceptable and cause deadlock if the invalidated periph can't
be destroyed without "executing" the scheduled request.

When safety requirements are met, it allows to avoid passing I/O requests
to GEOM g_up/g_down thread, executing them directly in the caller context.
That allows to avoid CPU bottlenecks in g_up/g_down threads, plus avoid
several context switches per I/O.
The defined now safety requirements are:
- caller should not hold any locks and should be reenterable;
- callee should not depend on GEOM dual-threaded concurency semantics;
- on the way down, if request is unmapped while callee doesn't support it,
the context should be sleepable;
- kernel thread stack usage should be below 50%.
To keep compatibility with GEOM classes not meeting above requirements
new provider and consumer flags added:
- G_CF_DIRECT_SEND -- consumer code meets caller requirements (request);
- G_CF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- consumer code meets callee requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- provider code meets caller requirements (done);
- G_PF_DIRECT_RECEIVE -- provider code meets callee requirements (request).
Capable GEOM class can set them, allowing direct dispatch in cases where
it is safe. If any of requirements are not met, request is queued to
g_up or g_down thread same as before.
Such GEOM classes were reviewed and updated to support direct dispatch:
CONCAT, DEV, DISK, GATE, MD, MIRROR, MULTIPATH, NOP, PART, RAID, STRIPE,
VFS, ZERO, ZFS::VDEV, ZFS::ZVOL, all classes based on g_slice KPI (LABEL,
MAP, FLASHMAP, etc).
To declare direct completion capability disk(9) KPI got new flag equivalent
to G_PF_DIRECT_SEND -- DISKFLAG_DIRECT_COMPLETION. da(4) and ada(4) disk
drivers got it set now thanks to earlier CAM locking work.
This change more then twice increases peak block storage performance on
systems with manu CPUs, together with earlier CAM locking changes reaching
more then 1 million IOPS (512 byte raw reads from 16 SATA SSDs on 4 HBAs to
256 user-level threads).

reduce lock congestion and improve SMP scalability of the SCSI/ATA stack,
preparing the ground for the coming next GEOM direct dispatch support.
Replace big per-SIM locks with bunch of smaller ones:
- per-LUN locks to protect device and peripheral drivers state;
- per-target locks to protect list of LUNs on target;
- per-bus locks to protect reference counting;
- per-send queue locks to protect queue of CCBs to be sent;
- per-done queue locks to protect queue of completed CCBs;
- remaining per-SIM locks now protect only HBA driver internals.
While holding LUN lock it is allowed (while not recommended for performance
reasons) to take SIM lock. The opposite acquisition order is forbidden.
All the other locks are leaf locks, that can be taken anywhere, but should
not be cascaded. Many functions, such as: xpt_action(), xpt_done(),
xpt_async(), xpt_create_path(), etc. are no longer require (but allow) SIM
lock to be held.
To keep compatibility and solve cases where SIM lock can't be dropped, all
xpt_async() calls in addition to xpt_done() calls are queued to completion
threads for async processing in clean environment without SIM lock held.
Instead of single CAM SWI thread, used for commands completion processing
before, use multiple (depending on number of CPUs) threads. Load balanced
between them using "hash" of the device B:T:L address.
HBA drivers that can drop SIM lock during completion processing and have
sufficient number of completion threads to efficiently scale to multiple
CPUs can use new function xpt_done_direct() to avoid extra context switch.
Make ahci(4) driver to use this mechanism depending on hardware setup.

registered simultaneously. Due to topology unlock between the ID allocation
and the bus registration there is a chance that two buses may get the
same IDs. That is supposed reason of lock assertion panic in CAM during
initial bus scanning after new iscsid initiates two sessions same time.

- Remove the timeout_ch field. It's been deprecated since FreeBSD 7.0;
MPSAFE drivers should be managing their own timeout storage. The
remaining non-MPSAFE drivers have been modified to also manage their own
storage, and should be considered for updating to MPSAFE (or removal)
during the FreeBSD 10.x lifecycle.
- Add fields related to soft timeouts and quality of service, to be used
in upcoming work.
- Add room for more flags in the CCB header and path_inq structures.
- Begin support for extended 64-bit LUNs.
- Bump the CAM version number to 0x18, but add compat shims. Tested with
camcontrol and smartctl.

retries, poll for a change in status.
We will poll every half second for a minute for the status to
change.
Hitachi drives (and likely other SAS drives) return that ASC/ASCQ
when they are waiting to spin up. What it means is that they are
waiting for the SAS expander to send them the SAS
NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) primitive.
That primitive is the mechanism expanders/enclosures use to
sequence drive spinup to avoid overloading power supplies.

configure sa(4) to request no I/O splitting by default.
For tape devices, the user needs to be able to clearly understand
what blocksize is actually being used when writing to a tape
device. The previous behavior of physio(9) was that it would split
up any I/O that was too large for the device, or too large to fit
into MAXPHYS. This means that if, for instance, the user wrote a
1MB block to a tape device, and MAXPHYS was 128KB, the 1MB write
would be split into 8 128K chunks. This would be done without
informing the user.
This has suboptimal effects, especially when trying to communicate
status to the user. In the event of an error writing to a tape
(e.g. physical end of tape) in the middle of a 1MB block that has
been split into 8 pieces, the user could have the first two 128K
pieces written successfully, the third returned with an error, and
the last 5 returned with 0 bytes written. If the user is using
a standard write(2) system call, all he will see is the ENOSPC
error. He won't have a clue how much actually got written. (With
a writev(2) system call, he should be able to determine how much
got written in addition to the error.)
The solution is to prevent physio(9) from splitting the I/O. The
new cdev flag, SI_NOSPLIT, tells physio that the driver does not
want I/O to be split beforehand.
Although the sa(4) driver now enables SI_NOSPLIT by default,
that can be disabled by two loader tunables for now. It will not
be configurable starting in FreeBSD 11.0. kern.cam.sa.allow_io_split
allows the user to configure I/O splitting for all sa(4) driver
instances. kern.cam.sa.%d.allow_io_split allows the user to
configure I/O splitting for a specific sa(4) instance.
There are also now three sa(4) driver sysctl variables that let the
users see some sa(4) driver values. kern.cam.sa.%d.allow_io_split
shows whether I/O splitting is turned on. kern.cam.sa.%d.maxio shows
the maximum I/O size allowed by kernel configuration parameters
(e.g. MAXPHYS, DFLTPHYS) and the capabilities of the controller.
kern.cam.sa.%d.cpi_maxio shows the maximum I/O size supported by
the controller.
Note that a better long term solution would be to implement support
for chaining buffers, so that that MAXPHYS is no longer a limiting
factor for I/O size to tape and disk devices. At that point, the
controller and the tape drive would become the limiting factors.
sys/conf.h: Add a new cdev flag, SI_NOSPLIT, that allows a
driver to tell physio not to split up I/O.
sys/param.h: Bump __FreeBSD_version to 1000049 for the addition
of the SI_NOSPLIT cdev flag.
kern_physio.c: If the SI_NOSPLIT flag is set on the cdev, return
any I/O that is larger than si_iosize_max or
MAXPHYS, has more than one segment, or would have
to be split because of misalignment with EFBIG.
(File too large).
In the event of an error, print a console message to
give the user a clue about what happened.
scsi_sa.c: Set the SI_NOSPLIT cdev flag on the devices created
for the sa(4) driver by default.
Add tunables to control whether we allow I/O splitting
in physio(9).
Explain in the comments that allowing I/O splitting
will be deprecated for the sa(4) driver in FreeBSD
11.0.
Add sysctl variables to display the maximum I/O
size we can do (which could be further limited by
read block limits) and the maximum I/O size that
the controller can do.
Limit our maximum I/O size (recorded in the cdev's
si_iosize_max) by MAXPHYS. This isn't strictly
necessary, because physio(9) will limit it to
MAXPHYS, but it will provide some clarity for the
application.
Record the controller's maximum I/O size reported
in the Path Inquiry CCB.
sa.4: Document the block size behavior, and explain that
the option of allowing physio(9) to split the I/O
will disappear in FreeBSD 11.0.

We now pay attention to the maxio field in the XPT_PATH_INQ CCB,
and if it is set, propagate it up to physio via the si_iosize_max
field in the cdev structure.
We also now pay attention to the PIM_UNMAPPED capability bit in the
XPT_PATH_INQ CCB, and set the new SI_UNMAPPED cdev flag when the
underlying SIM supports unmapped I/O.
scsi_sa.c: Add unmapped I/O support and propagate the SIM's
maximum I/O size up.
Adjust scsi_tape_read_write() in the same way that
scsi_read_write() was changed to support unmapped
I/O. We overload the readop parameter with bits
that tell us whether it's an unmapped I/O, and we
need to set the CAM_DATA_BIO CCB flag. This change
should be backwards compatible in source and
binary forms.
