Hi all,

(taking up an old thread:)
here's now the main part of my EH rework.
It modifies the reset callbacks for SCSI EH such that
each callback (eh_host_reset_handler, eh_bus_reset_handler,
eh_target_reset_handler, eh_device_reset_handler) only
references the actual entity it needs to work on
(ie 'Scsi_Host', (scsi bus), 'scsi_target', 'scsi_device'),
and the 'struct scsi_cmnd' is dropped from the argument list.
This simplifies the handler themselves as they don't need to
exclude some 'magic' command, and we don't need to allocate
a mock 'struct scsi_cmnd' when issuing a reset via SCSI ioctl.

The entire patchset can be found at:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hare/scsi-devel.git
branch eh-rework.v5

As usual, comments and reviews are welcome.


Hi, Hannes, I reviewed your patches and have some questions
to consult.

It seems your patches can be divided into 2 parts, the first part
modifies various LLDDs, decouple each driver's TMFs and scsi_cmnd,
in addition fixes some driver eh_reset function like device_reset
callback actually does target_reset should do things and so on.

The second part modifies the SCSI middle layer by passing
Scsi_host/bus ID/scsi_target/scsi_device to the TMF callback of
LLDDs during error handling, so as to avoid using scsi_cmnd as
parameter during error handling.

But I haven't seen any changes to support concurrent TMF, and
from what I understand, concurrent TMF still needs to be supported
by devices like virtio-scsi, which is designed to naturally support
concurrent TMF.

Is my understanding correct? Or I left out some important details?

Your understanding is entirely correct.
These patches do not modify the behaviour regarding concurrent TMFs.
However, for aborts we already do concurrent TMFs, as for most drivers
abort TMFs are sent directly after a command timeout triggers.


Yes, from some of the drivers I've analyzed so far, these drivers support
fake concurrent TMFs. In most cases, there's a mutex lock used to mutex in
a complete TMFs, this kind of concurrent TMFs does not mean multiple
processes can execute TMFs simultaneously.

Concurrent 'device reset' (or higher) TMFs are not implemented, and
will be hard to support in general. One would need to redesign the
SCSI EH flow, and find a way on how to 'coalesce' TMFs results when
escalating to the next level; eg when 'device reset' fails for one
device, you would have to wait for all 'device reset' TMFs on the
same target to complete before you can advance to 'target reset'.

I totally agree that it seems unlikely to support real concurrent
TMFs in general.

In fact, I start focus on concurrent TMFs because we need introduce
a new EH mechanism which do not block whole host's IO in EH.

In my design, escalating to the next level of recovery still need wait for
other devices in the same level to complete.

For example, if driver enables device-based EH, sda and sdb belong to a same
target, both sda and sdb triggered EH. If EH of sda failed and need to
escalate to the next-level reset, the next-level recovery would not be waked
up until sdb's EH completed.

The previous patchset I posted earlier has some issues in the fallback logic.
After your patch applied, I will adapt and repost the patch based on your
modification.

Thanks.

With current SCSI EH you can escalate directly, with no need to
wait for any other TMFs (as there won't be any).

So I think the gains for doing concurrent TMFs are offset by the
losses incurred by having to wait for TMF timeouts.

Cheers,

Hannes

Thanks.
