Re: [PATCH] megaraid_sas: Enable shared tag map

[Hannes, James, Christoph: sorry for the extra copies -- my mail client didn't automatically convert to plain-text for the list, so it bounced.]

Could someone enlighten me on when and where a driver might want to or be required to set the "tagged_supported" flag?

A quick grep yields a number of places where the flag value is set or cleared.

This looks like the mechanism which is supposed to set the flag (e.g., if the device/LUN characteristics suggest that it's appropriate), and so I'm not sure when/why the driver would want to do it explicitly:

./drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:             sdev->tagged_supported = 1;         [in scsi_add_lun()]


These look like attempts to override the SCSI mid-layer:

./drivers/scsi/fnic/fnic_main.c:        sdev->tagged_supported = 1;         [in '_slave_alloc()]
./drivers/scsi/stex.c:                  sdev->tagged_supported = 1;         [in '_slave_alloc()]
./drivers/scsi/stex.c:                  sdev->tagged_supported = 1;         [in '_slave_configure()]
./drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_os.c:        sdev->tagged_supported = 1;         [in '_slave_alloc()]
./drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_os.c:        sdev->tagged_supported = 1;         [in '_slave_configure()]
./drivers/scsi/ufs/ufshcd.c:            sdev->tagged_supported = 1;         [in '_slave_alloc()]
./drivers/scsi/scsi_debug.c:            sdp->tagged_supported = 1;          [in '_slave_configure()]


However, it strikes me that it's unnecessary to set the flag in /both/ '_slave_alloc() and '_slave_configure() -- I think that either one should work, and '_slave_configure() seems like the appropriate choice. (But, I'm left wondering why these drivers need to override the SCSI ML's choice....)

These are interesting, but not pertinent to the discussion at hand (they seem to be fall-backs triggered during error recovery):

./drivers/scsi/atari_NCR5380.c:         cmd->device->tagged_supported = 0;  [error recovery?]
./drivers/scsi/53c700.c:                SCp->device->tagged_supported = 0;  [error recovery?]
./drivers/scsi/sun3_NCR5380.c:          cmd->device->tagged_supported = 0;  [error recovery?]


And, this one looks spurious (that is, I believe it's clearing the flag when it's already clear):

./drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_scsi_host.c:  scsi_dev->tagged_supported = 0;     [looks spurious]


So, taking the patch below, for example, why is tagged_supported being set in /both/ the '_slave_alloc() and the '_slave_configure() routines, and, in fact, why is it being set at all -- why doesn't the SCSI mid-layer set it correctly in this case?


            Thanks,

                Webb

Megaraid_sas uses a shared pool of commands per HBA, so we
should be enabling a shared tag map.
This will allow the I/O scheduler to make better scheduling
decisions and will avoid BUSY states in the driver.
