target: Don't set WBUS16 or SYNC bits in INQUIRY response

2012-04-02T16:27:12+00:00

commit effc6cc8828257c32c37635e737f14fd6e19ecd7 upstream.

SPC-4 says about the WBUS16 and SYNC bits:

    The meanings of these fields are specific to SPI-5 (see 6.4.3).
    For SCSI transport protocols other than the SCSI Parallel
    Interface, these fields are reserved.

We don't have a SPI fabric module, so we should never set these bits.
(The comment was misleading, since it only mentioned Sync but the
actual code set WBUS16 too).

target: Set response format in INQUIRY response

2012-01-26T01:25:00+00:00

commit ce136176fea522fc8f4c16dcae7e8ed1d890ca39 upstream.

Current SCSI specs say that the "response format" field in the standard
INQUIRY response should be set to 2, and all the real SCSI devices I
have do put 2 here.  So let's do that too.

[SCSI] target: Fix volume size misreporting for volumes > 2TB

2011-03-14T23:31:08+00:00

the target infrastructure fails to send the correct conventional size
to READ_CAPACITY that force a retry with READ_CAPACITY_16, which reads
the capacity for devices > 2TB.  Fix by adding the correct return to
trigger RC(16).

[SCSI] target: Add LIO target core v4.0.0-rc6

2011-01-14T16:12:29+00:00

LIO target is a full featured in-kernel target framework with the
following feature set:

High-performance, non-blocking, multithreaded architecture with SIMD
support.

Advanced SCSI feature set:

    * Persistent Reservations (PRs)
    * Asymmetric Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA)
    * Protocol and intra-nexus multiplexing, load-balancing and failover (MC/S)
    * Full Error Recovery (ERL=0,1,2)
    * Active/active task migration and session continuation (ERL=2)
    * Thin LUN provisioning (UNMAP and WRITE_SAMExx)

Multiprotocol target plugins

Storage media independence:

    * Virtualization of all storage media; transparent mapping of IO to LUNs
    * No hard limits on number of LUNs per Target; maximum LUN size ~750 TB
    * Backstores: SATA, SAS, SCSI, BluRay, DVD, FLASH, USB, ramdisk, etc.

Standards compliance:

    * Full compliance with IETF (RFC 3720)
    * Full implementation of SPC-4 PRs and ALUA

Significant code cleanups done by Christoph Hellwig.

[jejb: fix up for new block bdev exclusive interface. Minor fixes from
 Randy Dunlap and Dan Carpenter.]
