From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Greetings all,
This series contains the v2 respin for the first series of lock_less LLD
conversion patches now available from lio-core-2.6.git/lock_less-LLDs-for-38-v2
This series is built on top of the recently committed to mainline full host_lock
push down patch by jgarzik @ commit f281233d3, and the recent:
[PATCH] Eliminate error handler overload of the SCSI serial number
The first patch to libiscsi does a conversion to host_lock less whilst using existing
internal spin_lock_irqsave(); do_lld_work(); spin_unlock_irqrestore() LLD locks.
The second patch from jgarzik included in the series does an simlar -> improved
host_lock less conversion w/ interrupts disabled internally from the libata I/O
queuecommand dispatcher.
The third patch adds a IRQ_DISABLE_SCSI_QCMD wrapper similar to DEF_SCSI_QCMD()
that will disable interrupts using local_irq_save() before calling
lld_queuecommand_irq_disable().
The forth -> eleventh patches convert libsas, message/fusion, mpt2sas, fnic, lpfc,
qla2xxx and qla4xxx to run in host_lock less w/ IRQ_DISABLE_SCSI_QCMD(). The final
patch drops the usage of DEF_SCSI_QCMD() around scsi_debug, which is fully capable
of processing I/O w/o hard interrupts disabled.
This code has been generated against this afternoon's .37-rc2, and compile tested only.
To the CC'ed LLD maintainers, please have a look and add your comments / feedback
as necessary.
Thanks!
