commit e63ed0d7a98014fdfc2cfeb3f6dada313dcabb59 upstream.

This patch eliminates the reap_ref and replaces it with a proper kref.
On last put of this kref, the target is removed from visibility in
sysfs.  The final call to scsi_target_reap() for the device is done from
__scsi_remove_device() and only if the device was made visible.  This
ensures that the target disappears as soon as the last device is gone
rather than waiting until final release of the device (which is often
too long).

<title>[SCSI] Set the minimum valid value of 'eh_deadline' as 0</title>

The former minimum valid value of 'eh_deadline' is 1s, which means
the earliest occasion to shorten EH is 1 second later since a
command is failed or timed out. But if we want to skip EH steps
ASAP, we have to wait until the first EH step is finished. If the
duration of the first EH step is long, this waiting time is
excruciating. So, it is necessary to accept 0 as the minimum valid
value for 'eh_deadline'.

According to my test, with Hannes' patchset 'New EH command timeout
handler' as well, the minimum IO time is improved from 73s
(eh_deadline = 1) to 43s(eh_deadline = 0) when commands are timed
out by disabling RSCN and target port.

<title>[SCSI] Add 'eh_deadline' to limit SCSI EH runtime</title>

<id>b45620229dd67ff1daffa8adce57f37b37860f78</id>
<content type='text'>
This patchs adds an 'eh_deadline' sysfs attribute to the scsi
host which limits the overall runtime of the SCSI EH.
The 'eh_deadline' value is stored in the now obsolete field
'resetting'.
When a command is failed the start time of the EH is stored
in 'last_reset'. If the overall runtime of the SCSI EH is longer
than last_reset + eh_deadline, the EH is short-circuited and
falls through to issue a host reset only.

Generate a uevent when the following Unit Attention ASC/ASCQ
codes are received:

    2A/01  MODE PARAMETERS CHANGED
    2A/09  CAPACITY DATA HAS CHANGED
    38/07  THIN PROVISIONING SOFT THRESHOLD REACHED
    3F/03  INQUIRY DATA HAS CHANGED

Log kernel messages when the following Unit Attention ASC/ASCQ
codes are received that are not as specific as those above:

    2A/xx  PARAMETERS CHANGED
    3F/xx  TARGET OPERATING CONDITIONS HAVE CHANGED

Added logic to set expecting_lun_change for other LUNs on the target
after REPORTED LUNS DATA HAS CHANGED is received, so that duplicate
uevents are not generated, and clear expecting_lun_change when a
REPORT LUNS command completes, in accordance with the SPC-3
specification regarding reporting of the 3F 0E ASC/ASCQ UA.

Introduce eh_timeout which can be used for error handling purposes. This
was previously hardcoded to 10 seconds in the SCSI error handling
code. However, for some fast-fail scenarios it is necessary to be able
to tune this as it can take several iterations (bus device, target, bus,
controller) before we give up.

<title>[SCSI] prevent stack buffer overflow in host_reset</title>

store_host_reset() has tried to re-invent the wheel to compare sysfs strings.
Unfortunately it did so poorly and never bothered to check the input from
userspace before overwriting stack with it, so something simple as:

echo "WoopsieWoopsie" &gt;
/sys/devices/pseudo_0/adapter0/host0/scsi_host/host0/host_reset

would result in:

The following crash results from cases where the end_device has been
removed before scsi_sysfs_add_sdev has had a chance to run.

Avoid that the code for requeueing SCSI requests triggers a
crash by making sure that that code isn't scheduled anymore
after a device has been removed.

Also, source code inspection of __scsi_remove_device() revealed
a race condition in this function: no new SCSI requests must be
accepted for a SCSI device after device removal started.
