Pull target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"It has been a very busy development cycle this time around in target
land, with the highlights including:
- Kill struct se_subsystem_dev, in favor of direct se_device usage
(hch)
- Simplify reservations code by combining SPC-3 + SCSI-2 support for
virtual backends only (hch)
- Simplify ALUA code for virtual only backends, and remove left over
abstractions (hch)
- Pass sense_reason_t as return value for I/O submission path (hch)
- Refactor MODE_SENSE emulation to allow for easier addition of new
mode pages. (roland)
- Add emulation of MODE_SELECT (roland)
- Fix bug in handling of ExpStatSN wrap-around (steve)
- Fix bug in TMR ABORT_TASK lookup in qla2xxx target (steve)
- Add WRITE_SAME w/ UNMAP=0 support for IBLOCK backends (nab)
- Convert ib_srpt to use modern target_submit_cmd caller + drop
legacy ioctx->kref usage (nab)
- Convert ib_srpt to use modern target_submit_tmr caller (nab)
- Add link_magic for fabric allow_link destination target_items for
symlinks within target_core_fabric_configfs.c code (nab)
- Allocate pointers in instead of full structs for
config_group->default_groups (sebastian)
- Fix 32-bit highmem breakage for FILEIO (sebastian)
All told, hch was able to shave off another ~1K LOC by killing the
se_subsystem_dev abstraction, along with a number of PR + ALUA
simplifications. Also, a nice patch by Roland is the refactoring of
MODE_SENSE handling, along with the addition of initial MODE_SELECT
emulation support for virtual backends.
Sebastian found a long-standing issue wrt to allocation of full
config_group instead of pointers for config_group->default_group[]
setup in a number of areas, which ends up saving memory with big
configurations. He also managed to fix another long-standing BUG wrt
to broken 32-bit highmem support within the FILEIO backend driver.
Thank you again to everyone who contributed this round!"

Zero copy TX has been around for a while now.
We seem to be down to eliminating theoretical bugs
and performance tuning at this point:
it's probably time to enable it by default so that
most users get the benefit.
Keep the flag around meanwhile so users can experiment
with disabling this if they experience regressions.
I expect that we will remove it in the future.

For short packets zerocopy mode adds overhead
of managing heads which isn't necessary: we
could simly update used ring directly
same as with zerocopy disabled.
Things seem to run a bit faster if we detect
and bypass head management when zcopy isn't used.

When memory map changes, we need to flush outstanding
DMAs as they might in theory reference old memory addresses.
To do this simply stop initiating new DMAs
and wait for ubufs ref count to drop to 0.
Afterwards reset the count back to 1.

vring changes already do a flush internally where appropriate, so we do
not need a second flush.
It's currently not very expensive but a follow-up patch makes flush more
heavy-weight, so remove the extra flush here to avoid regressing
performance if call or kick fds are changed on data path.

These packet counters are used to drive the zercopy
selection heuristic so nothing too bad happens if they are off a bit -
and they are also reset once in a while.
But it's cleaner to clear them when backend is set so that
we start in a known state.

Pass the sense reason as an explicit return value from the I/O submission
path instead of storing it in struct se_cmd and using negative return
values. This cleans up a lot of the code pathes, and with the sparse
annotations for the new sense_reason_t type allows for much better
error checking.

Even when vhost-net is in zero-copy transmit mode,
net core might still decide to copy the skb later
which is somewhat slower than a copy in user
context: data copy overhead is added to the cost of
page pin/unpin. The result is that enabling tx zero copy
option leads to higher CPU utilization for guest to guest
and guest to host traffic.
To fix this, suppress zero copy tx after a given number of
packets triggered late data copy. Re-enable periodically
to detect workload changes.

Even if skb is marked for zero copy, net core might still decide
to copy it later which is somewhat slower than a copy in user context:
besides copying the data we need to pin/unpin the pages.
Add a parameter reporting such cases through zero copy callback:
if this happens a lot, device can take this into account
and switch to copying in user context.
This patch updates all users but ignores the passed value for now:
it will be used by follow-up patches.

Pull scsi target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"Things have been calm for the most part with no new fabric drivers in
flight for v3.7 (we're up to eight now !), so this update is primarily
focused on addressing a few long-standing items within target-core and
iscsi-target fabric code.
The highlights include:
- target: Simplify fabric sense data length handling (roland)
- qla2xxx: Fix endianness of task management response code (roland)
- target: fix truncation of mode data, support zero allocation length
(paolo)
- target: Properly support zero-length commands in normal processing

- iscsi-target: Correctly set 0xffffffff field within ISCSI_OP_REJECT
PDU (ronnie + nab)
- iscsi-target: Add explicit set of cache_dynamic_acls=1 for TPG
demo-mode (ronnie + nab)
- target/file: Re-enable optional fd_buffered_io=1 operation (nab +
hch)
- iscsi-target: Add MaxXmitDataSegmenthLength forr target ->
initiator MDRSL declaration (nab)
- target: Add target_submit_cmd_map_sgls for SGL fabric memory
passthrough (nab + hch)
- tcm_loop: Convert I/O path to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls (hch +
nab)
- tcm_vhost: Convert I/O path to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls (nab
+ hch)
The last series for adding a new target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() fabric
caller (as requested by hch) that accepts pre-allocated SGL memory
(using existing logic), along with converting tcm_loop + tcm_vhost has
only been in -next for the last days, but has gotten enough review
+testing and is clear enough a mechanical change that I think it's
reasonable to merge for -rc1 code.
Thanks again to everyone who contributed this round! Extra special
thanks to Roland (PureStorage) for tracking down the qla2xxx target
TMR response code endian issue, and to Paolo (Redhat) for resolving
the long standing zero-length CDB issues within target-core between
virtual and pSCSI backends."

This patch converts tcm_vhost to use target_submit_cmd_map_sgls() for
I/O submission and mapping of pre-allocated SGL memory from incoming
virtio-scsi SGL memory -> se_cmd descriptors.
This includes removing the original open-coded fabric uses of target
core callers to support transport_generic_map_mem_to_cmd() between
target_setup_cmd_from_cdb() and transport_handle_cdb_direct() logic.
It also includes adding a handful of new tcm_vhost_cmnd member +
assignments in vhost_scsi_allocate_cmd() used from cmwq process
context I/O submission within tcm_vhost_submission_work()
(v2: Use renamed target_submit_cmd_map_sgls)

Every fabric driver has to supply a se_tfo->set_fabric_sense_len()
method, just so iSCSI can return an offset of 2. However, every fabric
driver is already allocating a sense buffer and passing it into the
target core, either via transport_init_se_cmd() or target_submit_cmd().
So instead of having iSCSI pass the start of its sense buffer into the
core and then later tell the core to skip the first 2 bytes, it seems
easier for iSCSI just to do the offset of 2 when it passes the sense
buffer into the core. Then we can drop the se_tfo->set_fabric_sense_len()
everywhere, and just add a couple of lines of code to iSCSI to set the
sense data length to the beginning of the buffer right before it sends
it over the network.
(nab: Remove .set_fabric_sense_len usage from tcm_qla2xxx_npiv_ops +
change transport_get_sense_buffer to follow v3.6-rc6 code w/o
->set_fabric_sense_len usage)
