The "compatible" matching algorithm used for looking up old-style
blacklist entries in a scsi_dev_info_list is buggy. The core of the
algorithm looks like this:
if (memcmp(devinfo->vendor, vendor,
min(max, strlen(devinfo->vendor))))
/* not a match */
where max is the length of the device's vendor string after leading
spaces have been removed but trailing spaces have not. Because of the
min() computation, either entry could be a proper substring of the
other and the code would still think that they match.
In the case originally reported, the device's vendor and product
strings were "Inateck " and " ". These matched against
the following entry in the global device list:
{"", "Scanner", "1.80", BLIST_NOLUN}
because "" is a substring of "Inateck " and "" (the result of removing
leading spaces from the device's product string) is a substring of
"Scanner". The mistaken match prevented the system from scanning and
finding the device's second Logical Unit.
This patch fixes the problem by making two changes. First, the code
for leading-space removal is hoisted out of the loop. (This means it
will sometimes run unnecessarily, but since a large percentage of all
lookups involve the "compatible" entries in global device list, this
should be an overall improvement.) Second and more importantly, the
patch removes trailing spaces and adds a check to verify that the two
resulting strings are exactly the same length. This prevents matches
where one entry is a proper substring of the other.

In drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c, the scsi_dev_info_list_del_keyed() and
scsi_get_device_flags_keyed() routines contain a large amount of
duplicate code for finding vendor/product matches in a
scsi_dev_info_list. This patch factors out the duplicate code and
puts it in a separate function, scsi_dev_info_list_find().

This works around a issue with qnap iscsi targets not handling large IOs
very well.
The target returns:
VPD INQUIRY: Block limits page (SBC)
Maximum compare and write length: 1 blocks
Optimal transfer length granularity: 1 blocks
Maximum transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
Optimal transfer length: 4294967295 blocks
Maximum prefetch, xdread, xdwrite transfer length: 0 blocks
Maximum unmap LBA count: 8388607
Maximum unmap block descriptor count: 1
Optimal unmap granularity: 16383
Unmap granularity alignment valid: 0
Unmap granularity alignment: 0
Maximum write same length: 0xffffffff blocks
Maximum atomic transfer length: 0
Atomic alignment: 0
Atomic transfer length granularity: 0
and it is *sometimes* able to handle at least one IO of size up to 8 MB. We
have seen in traces where it will sometimes work, but other times it
looks like it fails and it looks like it returns failures if we send
multiple large IOs sometimes. Also it looks like it can return 2 different
errors. It will sometimes send iscsi reject errors indicating out of
resources or it will send invalid cdb illegal requests check conditions.
And then when it sends iscsi rejects it does not seem to handle retries
when there are command sequence holes, so I could not just add code to
try and gracefully handle that error code.
The problem is that we do not have a good contact for the company,
so we are not able to determine under what conditions it returns
which error and why it sometimes works.
So, this patch just adds a new black list flag to set targets like this to
the old max safe sectors of 1024. The max_hw_sectors changes added in 3.19
caused this regression, so I also ccing stable.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The current scsi_devinfo.c matching routines use a single table for
the global blacklist. However, we're developing a need to blacklist
from specific transports too (notably some tape drives using SPI which
don't respond well to high speed protocols). Instead of developing
separate blacklist matching for each transport class needing it,
enhance the current list matching to permit multiple lists.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

Note 1: 0644 should be used, but root bypasses permissions, so writing
to /proc/scsi/device_info still works.
Note 2: looks like scsi_dev_info_list is unprotected
Note 3: probably make proc whine about "unwriteable but with ->write hook"
entries. Probably.

The correct internal mapping of stex controllers should be:
id:0~15, lun:0~7 (st_shasta)
id:0, lun:0~127 (st_yosemite)
id:0~127, lun:0 (st_vsc and st_vsc1)
This patch reports the internal mapping to scsi mid layer, eliminating
the translation between scsi mid layer and firmware. To achieve this
goal, we also need to:
-- fail the REPORT_LUNS command for st_shasta because the
firmware is known to not report all actual luns
-- add an entry in scsi_devindo.c to force sequential lun scan
(for st_shasta controllers)
-- fail the REPORT_LUNS command for console device
-- remove special handling of REPORT_LUNS command for
st_yosemite, as there is no translation mapping now
