With previous change, now the ata port runtime suspend will happen as:

disk suspend --&gt; scsi target suspend --&gt; scsi host suspend --&gt; ata port
suspend

ata port(parent device) suspend need to schedule scsi EH which will resume
scsi host(child device). Then the child device resume will in turn make
parent device resume first. This is kind of recursive.

This patch adds a new flag Scsi_Host::eh_noresume.
ata port will set this flag to skip the runtime PM calls on scsi host.

<title>[SCSI] scsi scan: don't fail scans when host is in recovery</title>

<id>76e4e12ff2b3ef86773989fd897b194eb38016e6</id>
<content type='text'>
The problem is that if we are doing a scsi scan then the device goes
into recovery then we will wait for the recovery to complete. It waits
because scsi-ml will send inquiries or report luns and the queueing code
will have been blocked due to the host not being ready. However, if we
are in recovery and then a scan is started the scan will silently fail
and some devices will not be added.

It is easy to hit the problem where devices do not show up with
FC where we are doing tests that disrupt the target controllers.
When the controller is disruprted (reboot, or setting firmware, etc),
and we cause the dev loss tmo to fire then devices will be removed
Then when the problem has been fixed, the rport will be scanned and
devices should be added back. But if we cause another disruption before
scanning has started then devices will not get added back. If the problem
is not started until the scan is started then the devices will be added
back.

This patch fixes that problem by not failing scans when the host
is in recovery. We will let scsi-ml send the IO and let the queueing
and scsi error handling deal with it like is done if we went into
recovery while scanning.

For recovery cases where the host is being torn down then with the
patch we will still fail the scan since there is not point in scanning.

perform adapter or firmware reset as suggested by
Mike Christie here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&amp;m=127359347111167&amp;w=2

user/application can write "adapter" or "firmware" on
this attr and it will call newly added function hook
in scsi_host_template to call LDD adapter or firmware
reset implementation.

<title>SCSI host lock push-down</title>

<content type='text'>
Move the mid-layer's -&gt;queuecommand() invocation from being locked
with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the
critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway.

The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an
equivalent transformation.  No locking or other behavior should change
with this patch.  All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved.

Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand,
	struct Scsi_Host *
and remove one parameter from queuecommand,
	void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *)

Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway,
and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd-&gt;scsi_done.

Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change.  Most drivers
needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.

Some controllers have a hardware limit on the number of protection
information scatter-gather list segments they can handle.

Introduce a max_integrity_segments limit in the block layer and provide
a new scsi_host_template setting that allows HBA drivers to provide a
value suitable for the hardware.

Add support for honoring the integrity segment limit when merging both
bios and requests.

hostt-&gt;unlock_native_capacity() if implemented.  This will be invoked
by block layer if partitions extend beyond the end of the device and

Some of our virtual SCSI hosts don't have a proper bus parent at the
top, which can be a problem for doing DMA on them

This patch makes the host device cache a pointer to the physical bus
device and provides an extra API for setting it (the normal API picks
it up from the parent).  This patch also modifies the qla2xxx and lpfc
vport logic to use the new DMA host setting API.

This patch modifies scsi_host_template-&gt;change_queue_depth so that
it takes an argument indicating why it is being called. This will be
used so that if a LLD needs to do some extra processing when
handling queue fulls or later ramp ups, it can do so.

This is a simple port of the drivers setting a change_queue_depth
callback. In the patch I just have these LLDs adjust the queue depth
if the user was requesting it.

	Also converted pmcraid_change_queue_depth and then verified
all modules compile  using "make allmodconfig" for any new build
warnings on X86_64.

	Updated original description after combing two original
patches from Mike to make this patch git bisectable.]
