<title>scsi_debug: fix do_device_access() with wrap around range</title>

do_device_access() is a function that abstracts copying SG list from/to
ramdisk storage (fake_storep).

It must deal with the ranges exceeding actual fake_storep size, because
such ranges are valid if virtual_gb is set greater than zero, and they
should be treated as fake_storep is repeatedly mirrored up to virtual
size.

Unfortunately, it can't deal with the range which wraps around the end of
fake_storep.  A wrap around range is copied by two
sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() calls, but sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() can't
copy from/to in the middle of SG list, therefore the second call can't
copy correctly.

This fixes it by using sg_pcopy_{from,to}_buffer() that can copy from/to
the middle of SG list.

This also simplifies the assignment of sdb-&gt;resid in
fill_from_dev_buffer().  Because fill_from_dev_buffer() is now only called
once per command execution cycle.  So it is not necessary to take care to
decrease sdb-&gt;resid if fill_from_dev_buffer() is called more than once.

dif_storep is declared as pointer to unsigned char type.  But it is
actually used to store vmalloced array of struct sd_dif_tuple.

This changes the type of dif_storep to the pointer to struct sd_dif_tuple.
It simplifies offset calculation for dif_storep and enables to remove
hardcoded size of struct sd_dif_tuple.

When UNMAP command is issued with the data integrity support enabled,
the protection info for the unmapped region is remain unchanged.
So READ command for the region later on causes data integrity failure.

This fixes it by invalidating protection info for the unmapped region
by filling with 0xff pattern.

The protection info dif_storep is allocated only when parameter dif is
not zero.  But it will be accessed when reading or writing to the storage
installed with parameter dix is not zero.

So kernel crashes if scsi_debug module is loaded with parameters dix=1 and
dif=0.

This fixes it by making dif_storep available if parameter dix is not zero
instead of checking if parameter dif is not zero.

In the function prot_verify_write(), kmap_atomic()/kunmap_atomic() for
data page and kmap_atomic()/kunmap_atomic() for protection information
page are not nested each other.

It worked perfectly before commit 3e4d3af501cccdc8a8cca41bdbe57d54ad7e7e73
("mm: stack based kmap_atomic()").  Because the kmap_atomic slot KM_IRQ0
was used for data page and the slot KM_IRQ1 was used for protection page.

But KM_types are gone and kmap_atomic() is using stack based implementation.
So two different kmap_atomic() usages must be strictly nested now.

This change ensures kmap_atomic() usage is strictly nested.

In the function prot_verify_write(), the kmap address 'daddr' is
incremented in the loop for each data page.  Finally 'daddr' reaches
the next page boundary in the end of the loop, and the invalid address
is passed to kunmap_atomic().

Fix the issue by not incrementing 'daddr' in the loop and offsetting it
by the loop counter on demand.

<title>[SCSI] scsi_debug: fix logical block provisioning support</title>

<id>b90ebc3d5c41c9164ae04efd2e4f8204c2a186f1</id>
<content type='text'>
provisioning map (map_storep) is a bitmap accessed by bitops.

So the allocation size should be a multiple of sizeof(unsigned long) and
also the bitmap should be cleared by using bitmap_clear() instead of
memset().

Otherwise it will cause problem on big-endian architecture if the number of
bits is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.

I tried testing the logical block provisioning support in scsi_debug,
but it didn't work as I expected.

For example, load scsi_debug module with UNMAP command supported
and fill the storage with random data.

        # modprobe scsi_debug lbpu=1
        # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdb

Then, try to unmap LBA 0, but Get LBA status reports:

        # sg_unmap --lba=0 --num=1 /dev/sdb
        # sg_get_lba_status --lba=0 /dev/sdb
        descriptor LBA: 0x0000000000000000  blocks: 16384  mapped

This is unexpected result.  Because UNMAP command to LBA 0 finished
without any errors, but Get LBA status shows that LBA 0 is still mapped.

This problem is due to the wrong translation between LBA and index of
provisioning map.  Fix it by using correct translation functions.

provisioning map (map_storep) is a bitmap accessed by bitops.

So the allocation size should be a multiple of sizeof(unsigned long) and
also the bitmap should be cleared by using bitmap_clear() instead of
memset().

Otherwise it will cause problem on big-endian architecture if the number of
bits is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG.

I tried testing the logical block provisioning support in scsi_debug,
but it didn't work as I expected.

For example, load scsi_debug module with UNMAP command supported
and fill the storage with random data.

        # modprobe scsi_debug lbpu=1
        # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sdb

Then, try to unmap LBA 0, but Get LBA status reports:

        # sg_unmap --lba=0 --num=1 /dev/sdb
        # sg_get_lba_status --lba=0 /dev/sdb
        descriptor LBA: 0x0000000000000000  blocks: 16384  mapped

This is unexpected result.  Because UNMAP command to LBA 0 finished
without any errors, but Get LBA status shows that LBA 0 is still mapped.

This problem is due to the wrong translation between LBA and index of
provisioning map.  Fix it by using correct translation functions.
