<id>urn:sha1:9c58b7ddd70dd7bfaac4ca87131f36d10aaba441</id>
<content type='text'>
Every fabric driver has to supply a se_tfo-&gt;set_fabric_sense_len()
method, just so iSCSI can return an offset of 2.  However, every fabric
driver is already allocating a sense buffer and passing it into the
target core, either via transport_init_se_cmd() or target_submit_cmd().

So instead of having iSCSI pass the start of its sense buffer into the
core and then later tell the core to skip the first 2 bytes, it seems
easier for iSCSI just to do the offset of 2 when it passes the sense
buffer into the core.  Then we can drop the se_tfo-&gt;set_fabric_sense_len()
everywhere, and just add a couple of lines of code to iSCSI to set the
sense data length to the beginning of the buffer right before it sends
it over the network.

(nab: Remove .set_fabric_sense_len usage from tcm_qla2xxx_npiv_ops +
      change transport_get_sense_buffer to follow v3.6-rc6 code w/o
      -&gt;set_fabric_sense_len usage)

There are no callers of se_tfo-&gt;get_fabric_sense_len(), so we should
stop having every fabric driver implement it.

<title>srpt: use target_execute_cmd for WRITEs in srpt_handle_rdma_comp</title>

<content type='text'>
srpt_handle_rdma_comp is called from kthread context and thus can execute
target_execute_cmd directly.  srpt_abort_cmd sets the CMD_T_LUN_STOP
flag directly, and thus the abuse of transport_generic_handle_data can be
replaced with an opencoded variant of that code path.  I'm still not happy
about a fabric driver poking into target core internals like this, but
let's defer the bigger architecture changes for now.

Pull scsi-target changes from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "There has been lots of work in existing code in a number of areas this
  past cycle.  The major highlights have been:

   * Removal of transport_do_task_sg_chain() from core + fabrics
     (Roland)
   * target-core: Removal of se_task abstraction from target-core and
     enforce hw_max_sectors for pSCSI backends (hch)
   * Re-factoring of iscsi-target tx immediate/response queues (agrover)
   * Conversion of iscsi-target back to using target core memory
     allocation logic (agrover)

  We've had one last minute iscsi-target patch go into for-next to
  address a nasty regression bug related to the target core allocation
  logic conversion from agrover that is not included in friday's
  linux-next build, but has been included in this series.

  On the new fabric module code front for-3.5, here is a brief status
  update for the three currently in flight this round:

   * usb-gadget target driver:

  Sebastian Siewior's driver for supporting usb-gadget target mode
  operation.  This will be going out as a separate PULL request from
  target-pending/usb-target-merge with subsystem maintainer ACKs.  There
  is one minor target-core patch in this series required to function.

   * sbp ieee-1394/firewire target driver:

  Chris Boot's driver for supportting the Serial Block Protocol (SBP)
  across IEEE-1394 Firewire hardware.  This will be going out as a
  separate PULL request from target-pending/sbp-target-merge with two
  additional drivers/firewire/ patches w/ subsystem maintainer ACKs.

   * qla2xxx LLD target mode infrastructure changes + tcm_qla2xxx:

  The Qlogic &gt;= 24xx series HW target mode LLD infrastructure patch-set
  and tcm_qla2xxx fabric driver.  Support for FC target mode using
  qla2xxx LLD code has been officially submitted by Qlogic to James
  below, and is currently outstanding but not yet merged into
  scsi.git/for-next..

    [PATCH 00/22] qla2xxx: Updates for scsi "misc" branch
    http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg59350.html

  Note there are *zero* direct dependencies upon this for-next series
  for the qla2xxx LLD target + tcm_qla2xxx patches submitted above, and
  over the last days the target mode team has been tracking down an
  tcm_qla2xxx specific active I/O shutdown bug that appears to now be
  almost squashed for 3.5-rc-fixes."

<content type='text'>
With the modern target core, se_cmd-&gt;t_data_sg already points to a
sglist that covers the whole command.  So task_sg chaining is needless
overhead and obfuscation -- instead of splicing the split up task
sglists back into one list, we can just use the original list directly.

<title>IB/srpt: Set srq_type to IB_SRQT_BASIC</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6f3603367b8f7c34598fdfc1058622e0e1951e98</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 96104eda0169 ("RDMA/core: Add SRQ type field"), kernel
users of SRQs need to specify srq_type = IB_SRQT_BASIC in struct
ib_srq_init_attr, or else most low-level drivers will fail in
when srpt_add_one() calls ib_create_srq() and gets -ENOSYS.

(mlx4_ib works OK nearly all of the time, because it just needs
srq_type != IB_SRQT_XRC.  And apparently nearly everyone using
ib_srpt is using mlx4 hardware)

  Channel fabric module currently queued in target-pending/for-next-merge,
  and coming for round 2.
