After Christophs SCSI change, the only usage left is RQ_ACTIVE
and RQ_INACTIVE. The block layer sets RQ_INACTIVE right before freeing
the request, so any check for RQ_INACTIVE in a driver is a bug and
indicates use-after-free.

So kill/clean the remaining users, straight forward.

Some user tools parse /proc/scsi/scsi, so we can't yet change the names.
Change the existing ones back to their old names, and add an admonition
to not make the same mistake that I did.

Andrew Morton reports that this was breaking YDL 4.1 userspace.

The recent change to the way scsi_device_get()/put() work broke the
non modular build (we do a module_refcount on a NULL).  Fix this by
checking for non-null before checking module_refcount().

<title>[SCSI] SCSI and FC Transport: add netlink support for posting of transport events</title>
<updated>2006-09-02T20:33:49+00:00</updated>

<name>James Smart</name>
<email>James.Smart@Emulex.Com</email>
</author>
<published>2006-08-18T21:30:09+00:00</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=84314fd4740ad73550c76dee4a9578979d84af48'/>
<id>84314fd4740ad73550c76dee4a9578979d84af48</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch formally adds support for the posting of FC events via netlink.
It is a followup to the original RFC at:
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&amp;m=114530667923464&amp;w=2
and the initial posting at:
  http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&amp;m=115507374832500&amp;w=2

The patch has been updated to optimize the send path, per the discussions
in the initial posting.

Per discussions at the Storage Summit and at OLS, we are to use netlink for
async events from transports. Also per discussions, to avoid a netlink
protocol per transport, I've create a single NETLINK_SCSITRANSPORT protocol,
which can then be used by all transports.

This patch:
- Creates new files scsi_netlink.c and scsi_netlink.h, which contains the
  single and shared definitions for the SCSI Transport. It is tied into the
  base SCSI subsystem intialization.
  Contains a single interface routine, scsi_send_transport_event(), for a
  transport to send an event (via multicast to a protocol specific group).
- Creates a new scsi_netlink_fc.h file, which contains the FC netlink event
  messages
- Adds 3 new routines to the fc transport:
   fc_get_event_number() -  to get a FC event #
   fc_host_post_event()  -  to send a simple FC event (32 bits of data)
   fc_host_post_vendor_event() - to send a Vendor unique event, with
                                 arbitrary amounts of data.

   Note: the separation of event number allows for a LLD to send a standard
     event, followed by vendor-specific data for the event.

Note: This patch assumes 2 prior fc transport patches have been installed:
   http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&amp;m=115555807316329&amp;w=2
   http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-scsi&amp;m=115581614930261&amp;w=2

   Sorry - next time I'll do something like making these individual
   patches of the same posting when I know they'll be posted closely
   together.

The fix isn't actually in sd: it's in scsi_device_get().  I modified it
to allow devices to be returned in SDEV_CANCEL, but not SDEV_DEL.  This
means that the device_remove_driver, which occurs in device_del() in
scsi_remove_device() after the device has gone into SDEV_CANCEL is now
effective at flushing the cache.

 - Replace scsi_device_types array API with scsi_device_type function API.
   Gets rid of a lot of common code, as well as being easier to use.
 - Add the new device types in SPC4 r05a, and rename some of the older ones.
 - Reformat the printing of inquiry data; now fits on one line and
   includes PQ.

I think I've addressed all the feedback from the previous versions.  My
current test box prints:
