2018-05-29block: rename BLK_EH_NOT_HANDLED to BLK_EH_DONEChristoph Hellwig1-2/+2
The BLK_EH_NOT_HANDLED implies nothing happen, but very often that is not what is happening - instead the driver already completed the command. Fix the symbolic name to reflect that a little better.

2017-04-06scsi: make asynchronous aborts mandatoryHannes Reinecke1-12/+6
There hasn't been any reports for HBAs where asynchronous abort would not work, so we should make it mandatory and remove the fallback.

2017-04-06scsi: make eh_eflags persistentHannes Reinecke1-7/+7
If a failed command is retried and fails again we need to enter SCSI EH, otherwise we will never be able to recover the command. To detect this situation we must not clear scmd->eh_eflags when EH finishes but rather make it persistent throughout the lifetime of the command.

2016-06-09scsi: fix race between simultaneous decrements of ->host_failedWei Fang1-2/+6
sas_ata_strategy_handler() adds the works of the ata error handler to system_unbound_wq. This workqueue asynchronously runs work items, so the ata error handler will be performed concurrently on different CPUs. In this case, ->host_failed will be decreased simultaneously in scsi_eh_finish_cmd() on different CPUs, and become abnormal. It will lead to permanently inequality between ->host_failed and ->host_busy, and scsi error handler thread won't start running. IO errors after that won't be handled. Since all scmds must have been handled in the strategy handler, just remove the decrement in scsi_eh_finish_cmd() and zero ->host_busy after the strategy handler to fix this race.

2006-04-10[PATCH] move ->eh_strategy_handler to the transport classChristoph Hellwig1-7/+7
Overriding the whole EH code is a per-transport, not per-host thing. Move ->eh_strategy_handler to the transport class, same as ->eh_timed_out. Downside is that scsi_host_alloc can't check for the total lack of EH anymore, but the transition period from old EH where we needed it is long gone already.
