This driver has confused Linux users before. Most people know SRP as a
SCSI transport layer that is used for communication between servers.
This driver however uses the SRP protocol for communication between
guests and/or the host that run on the same server. Please add this
information to the above help text, together with a reference to the VIO
protocol documentation in the POWER architecture manual.
+#include <generated/utsrelease.h>
Every Linux user can query the kernel version by running the uname
command. Is it really useful to print the kernel version (UTS_RELEASE)
when this driver is loaded?
+#include "ibmvscsi.h"
The above include directive indirectly includes a whole bunch of SCSI
initiator driver header files. We do not want that initiator header
files are included in the source code of a target driver. If it is
necessary to share definitions of symbolic constants between the
initiator and the target driver please move these into a new header file.

As Joe Perches already asked, please define pr_fmt() instead of
including the kernel module name in every pr_debug() statement.
+static char system_id[64] = "";
+static char partition_name[97] = "UNKNOWN";
Where do these magic constants come from and what is their meaning?
Please consider to introduce symbolic names for these constants.

Have you considered to use MODULE_VERSION() instead of introducing a
sysfs attribute to export the module version? An advantage of
MODULE_VERSION() is that it allows to query the module version without
having to load a kernel module.

Shouldn't a sense code be returned to the initiator if this function fails?

Please consider changing the above "break" into "goto fail" such that
the if (!rc) can be left out and such that the indentation of the code
below if (!rc) can be reduced.

Allocating memory in the command processing path in a SCSI driver
usually causes suboptimal performance. Other LIO target drivers
preallocate such buffers before I/O starts.

In the above function there is nothing that is specific to the VIO
mechanism. Please consider to merge this function with scsilun_to_int(),
e.g. by introducing a new function that accepts a SCSI LUN and the
addressing method as arguments and by making scsilun_to_int() call that
function with SCSI_LUN_ADDR_METHOD_PERIPHERAL as one of its arguments.

Is this the inquiry data response format from SPC? If so, this is a
structure definition that is useful for the SCSI initiator core and also
for other LIO target drivers. There might be a more appropriate header
file for this definition.
+enum scsi_lun_addr_method {

+/*******************************************************************************
+ * SCSI RDMA Protocol lib functions
My understanding of the VIO mechanism is that the invocation of
H_COPY_RDMA is synchronous. This means that this operation only finishes
after the data has been transferred. If I interpret the code in libsrp.c
and libsrp.h correctly then this code can only be used by SRP drivers
use synchronous data transfers and not by SRP drivers that use
asynchronous data transfers. This means that this code is not useful for
any of the SRP drivers that are already upstream (ib_srp and ib_srpt).
Hence my proposal to move the libsrp.c and libsrp.h source files from
drivers/scsi and include/scsi to the same directory as the ibmvscsis driver.
Thanks,
Bart.
