[PATCHv2 00/18] ALUA update and Referrals support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Nic,

here's the second version of my ALUA update & Referrals support patches.
As per request I've split up the supported states into individual
attributes, and while there I've also renamed the rather confusing
'alua_access_type' and 'alua_access_status' into 'alua_management_type'
and 'alua_status_modification', respectively.

The other features are:

- Make supported states configurable:
  We should make the list of supported ALUA states configurable,
  as some setups would possibly like to support a small subset
  of ALUA states only.
- Asynchronous transitioning: I've switched 'transitioning'
  handling to use a workqueue, that should allow us to simulate
  asynchronous transitioning modes. IE TCM should now be capable
  of handling requests while in transitioning, and properly terminate
  these with the correct sense code.
- Include target device descriptor in VPD page 83
  For the ALUA device handler we'd need to identify the target device
  where a given target port belongs to. So include the respective
  values in the VPD page.

And, of course, referrals support.
