If the driver knows when hardware is removed like with cxgb3i,
bnx2i, qla4xxx and iser then we will want to remove the sessions/devices
that are bound to that device before removing the host.
cxgb3i and in the future bnx2i will remove the host and that will
remove all the sessions on the hba. iser can call iscsi_kill_session
when it gets an event that indicates that a hca is removed.
And when qla4xxx is hooked in to the lib (it is only hooked into
the class right now) it can call iscsi remove host like the
partial offload card drivers.

Right now SCSI and others do their own command timeout handling.
Move those bits to the block layer.
Instead of having a timer per command, we try to be a bit more clever
and simply have one per-queue. This avoids the overhead of having to
tear down and setup a timer for each command, so it will result in a lot

qla4xxx has the old school startup/probe where it finds presetup sessions
in its flash and then attempts to log into them before returning from the
probe. This however, makes it very simple to add a iscsi class scan finished
helper which the driver can use.
In future patches Dave or I will rip apart the driver to make it more
like qla2xxx, but for now this is a very simple two line patch which
fixes the problem of trying to figure out when the initial sessions
are done being scanned.

Qla4xxx can just call the iscsi recovery functions directly.
There is no need for userspace to do this for qla4xxx, because
we do not use the mutex to iterate over devices anymore and iscsi_block
/unblock_session can be called from interrupt context or the dpc thread.
And having userspace do this just creates uneeded headaches for qla4xxx root
situations where the session may experience problems. For example
during the kernel shutdown the scsi layer wants to send sync caches, but at
this time userspace is not up (iscsid is not running), so we cannot
recover from the problem.

iSCSI must support software iscsi (iscsi_tcp, iser), hardware iscsi (qla4xxx),
and partial offload (broadcom). To be able to allow each stack or driver
or port (virtual or physical) to be able to log into the same target portal
we use the initiator tuple [[HWADDRESS | NETDEVNAME], INITIATOR_NAME] and
the target tuple [TARGETNAME, CONN_ADDRESS, CONN_PORT] to id a session.
This patch adds the netdev name, which is used by software iscsi when
it binds a session to a netdevice using the SO_BINDTODEVICE sock opt.
It cannot use HWADDRESS because if someone did vlans then the same netdevice
will have the same mac and the initiator,target id will not be unique.

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.
