db5ed4dfd5 scsi: drop reason argument from ->change_queue_depth
Drop the now unused reason argument from the ->change_queue_depth method.
Also add a return value to scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and rename it to
scsi_change_queue_depth now that it can be used as the default
->change_queue_depth implementation.

c8b09f6fb6 scsi: don't set tagging state from scsi_adjust_queue_depth
Remove the tagged argument from scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and just let it
handle the queue depth.  For most drivers those two are fairly separate,
given that most modern drivers don't care about the SCSI "tagged" status
of a command at all, and many old drivers allow queuing of multiple
untagged commands in the driver.

Instead we start out with the ->simple_tags flag set before calling
->slave_configure, which is how all drivers actually looking at
->simple_tags except for one worke anyway.  The one other case looks
broken, but I've kept the behavior as-is for now.

Except for that we only change ->simple_tags from the ->change_queue_type,
and when rejecting a tag message in a single driver, so keeping this
churn out of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is a clear win.

Now that the usage of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is more obvious we can
also remove all the trivial instances in ->slave_alloc or ->slave_configure
that just set it to the cmd_per_lun default.

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.

a88dc06cd5 scsi: delete the MCA specific drivers and driver code
The support for CONFIG_MCA is being removed, since the 20
year old hardware simply isn't capable of meeting today's
software demands on CPU and memory resources.

This commit removes the MCA specific SCSI drivers, and the
MCA specific portions of code in dual role ISA/MCA drivers.
Also, the MCA specific SCSI documentation is removed.

395cf9691d doc: fix broken references
There are numerous broken references to Documentation files (in other
Documentation files, in comments, etc.). These broken references are
caused by typo's in the references, and by renames or removals of the
Documentation files. Some broken references are simply odd.

Fix these broken references, sometimes by dropping the irrelevant text
they were part of.

0ea6e61122 Documentation: update broken web addresses.
Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

9e4f5e2961 [SCSI] FC Pass Thru support
Attached is the ELS/CT pass-thru patch for the FC Transport. The patch
creates a generic framework that lays on top of bsg and the SGIO v4 ioctl
in order to pass transaction requests to LLDD's.

The interface supports the following operations:
  On an fc_host basis:
    Request login to the specified N_Port_ID, creating an fc_rport.
    Request logout of the specified N_Port_ID, deleting an fc_rport
    Send ELS request to specified N_Port_ID w/o requiring a login, and
      wait for ELS response.
    Send CT request to specified N_Port_ID and wait for CT response.
      Login is required, but LLDD is allowed to manage login and decide
      whether it stays in place after the request is satisfied.
    Vendor-Unique request. Allows a LLDD-specific request to be passed
      to the LLDD, and the passing of a response back to the application.
  On an fc_rport basis:
    Send ELS request to nport and wait for ELS response.
    Send CT request to nport and wait for CT response.

The patch also exports several headers from include/scsi such that
they can be available to user-space applications:
  include/scsi/scsi.h
  include/scsi/scsi_netlink.h
  include/scsi/scsi_netlink_fc.h
  include/scsi/scsi_bsg_fc.h

For further information, refer to the last RFC:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=123436574018579&w=2

Note: Documentation is still spotty and will be added later.

9227c33de8 [PATCH] move ->eh_strategy_handler to the transport class
Overriding the whole EH code is a per-transport, not per-host thing.
Move ->eh_strategy_handler to the transport class, same as
->eh_timed_out.

Downside is that scsi_host_alloc can't check for the total lack of EH
anymore, but the transition period from old EH where we needed it is
long gone already.

anyway.

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!
