[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/20] SCSI subsystem improvements


From: Paolo Bonzini
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/20] SCSI subsystem improvements
Date: Tue, 3 May 2011 18:50:12 +0200

This series includes the following improvements to the SCSI subsystem:

1) introduction of SCSIBusOps that generalize the existing
command_complete callback;

2) widespread use of the SCSIRequest abstraction, with simpler memory
management (refcounting) and with various common idioms converted into
simple C functions instead of duplicating them all over the place;

3) support for autosense.

Some patches are from Hannes Reinecke's megasas patchset posted last
November, forward ported and applied to the new vSCSI controller as
well.

Testing:
- RHEL6.1 install complete to scsi-disk with lsi, from scsi-generic CD
- iozone run with lsi on scsi-disk target
- RHEL6.1 install to usb-msd from IDE CD hangs (probably) when formatting
  the USB disk, gets I/O errors even earlier without the series
- RHEL6.1 install started with vscsi, from scsi-generic CD including
  playing with opening/closing the tray (to exercise autosense), plan to do
  a complete test later if no one beats me to it

esp is only compile tested.

  lsi: extract lsi_find_by_tag
  scsi: commonize purging requests
  scsi: introduce scsi_req_abort
  scsi: introduce scsi_req_cancel
