e73a5e8e80 scsi: core: Only return started requests from scsi_host_find_tag()
scsi_host_find_tag() is used by the drivers to return a scsi command based
on the command tag. Typically it's used from the interrupt handler to fetch
the command associated with a value returned from hardware. Some drivers
like fnic or qla4xxx, however, also use it also to traverse outstanding
commands.  With the current implementation scsi_host_find_tag() will return
commands even if they are not started (i.e. passed to the driver).  This
will result in random errors with those drivers.  With this patch
scsi_host_find_tag() will only return 'started' commands (i.e. commands
which have been passed to the drivers) thus avoiding the above issue.  The
other use cases will be unaffected as the interrupt handler naturally will
only ever return 'started' requests.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

bed2213d01 scsi: Use blk_mq_rq_to_pdu() to convert a request to a SCSI command pointer
Since commit e9c787e65c ("scsi: allocate scsi_cmnd structures as
part of struct request") struct request and struct scsi_cmnd are
adjacent. This means that there is now an alternative to reading
req->special to convert a pointer to a prepared request into a
SCSI command pointer, namely by using blk_mq_rq_to_pdu(). Make
this change where appropriate. Although this patch does not
change any functionality, it slightly improves performance and
slightly improves readability.

2ecb204d07 scsi: always assign block layer tags if enabled
Allow a driver to ask for block layer tags by setting .use_blk_tags in the
host template, in which case it will always see a valid value in
request->tag, similar to the behavior when using blk-mq.  This means even
SCSI "untagged" commands will now have a tag, which is especially useful
when using a host-wide tag map.

125c99bc8b scsi: add new scsi-command flag for tagged commands
Currently scsi piggy backs on the block layer to define the concept
of a tagged command.  But we want to be able to have block-level host-wide
tags assigned even for untagged commands like the initial INQUIRY, so add
a new SCSI-level flag for commands that are tagged at the scsi level, so
that even commands without that set can have tags assigned to them.  Note
that this alredy is the case for the blk-mq code path, and this just lets
the old path catch up with it.

We also set this flag based upon sdev->simple_tags instead of the block
queue flag, so that it is entirely independent of the block layer tagging,
and thus always correct even if a driver doesn't use block level tagging
yet.

Also remove the old blk_rq_tagged; it was only used by SCSI drivers, and
removing it forces them to look for the proper replacement.

d285203cf6 scsi: add support for a blk-mq based I/O path.
This patch adds support for an alternate I/O path in the scsi midlayer
which uses the blk-mq infrastructure instead of the legacy request code.

Use of blk-mq is fully transparent to drivers, although for now a host
template field is provided to opt out of blk-mq usage in case any unforseen
incompatibilities arise.

In general replacing the legacy request code with blk-mq is a simple and
mostly mechanical transformation.  The biggest exception is the new code
that deals with the fact the I/O submissions in blk-mq must happen from
process context, which slightly complicates the I/O completion handler.
The second biggest differences is that blk-mq is build around the concept
of preallocated requests that also include driver specific data, which
in SCSI context means the scsi_cmnd structure.  This completely avoids
dynamic memory allocations for the fast path through I/O submission.

Due the preallocated requests the MQ code path exclusively uses the
host-wide shared tag allocator instead of a per-LUN one.  This only
affects drivers actually using the block layer provided tag allocator
instead of their own.  Unlike the old path blk-mq always provides a tag,
although drivers don't have to use it.

For now the blk-mq path is disable by defauly and must be enabled using
the "use_blk_mq" module parameter.  Once the remaining work in the block
layer to make blk-mq more suitable for slow devices is complete I hope
to make it the default and eventually even remove the old code path.

Based on the earlier scsi-mq prototype by Nicholas Bellinger.

Thanks to Bart Van Assche and Robert Elliot for testing, benchmarking and
various sugestions and code contributions.

9361401eb7 [PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6]
Make it possible to disable the block layer.  Not all embedded devices require
it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require
the block layer to be present.

This patch does the following:

 (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev
     support.

 (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls
     an item that uses the block layer.  This includes:

     (*) Block I/O tracing.

     (*) Disk partition code.

     (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS.

     (*) The SCSI layer.  As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the
     	 block layer to do scheduling.  Some drivers that use SCSI facilities -
     	 such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this.

     (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM
     	 drivers.

     (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL.

     (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by
     	 taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book.

 (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and
     linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set.  sector_div() is,
     however, still used in places, and so is still available.

 (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and
     parts of linux/fs.h.

 (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK
     is not enabled.

 (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are
     required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set:

     (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening).

 (*) Makes some /proc changes:

     (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs.

     (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK.

 (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if
     given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified.

 (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if
     CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined.  This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2.

 (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return
     error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so).

 (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if

4aff5e2333 [PATCH] Split struct request ->flags into two parts
Right now ->flags is a bit of a mess: some are request types, and
others are just modifiers. Clean this up by splitting it into
->cmd_type and ->cmd_flags. This allows introduction of generic
Linux block message types, useful for sending generic Linux commands
to block devices.

86e33a296c [SCSI] add shared tag map helpers
This patch adds support for sharing tag maps at the host level
(i.e. either every queue [LUN] has its own tag map or there's a single
one for the entire host).  This formulation is primarily intended to
help single issue queue hardware, like the aic7xxx

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
