2012-07-20[SCSI] scsi_dh: add scsi_dh_attached_handler_nameMike Snitzer1-0/+6
Introduce scsi_dh_attached_handler_name() to retrieve the name of the scsi_dh that is attached to the scsi_device associated with the provided request queue. Returns NULL if a scsi_dh is not attached. Also, fix scsi_dh_{attach,detach} function header comments to document @q rather than @sdev.

2009-12-04[SCSI] scsi_dh: Change the scsidh_activate interface to be asynchronousChandra Seetharaman1-2/+4
Make scsi_dh_activate() function asynchronous, by taking in two additional parameters, one is the callback function and the other is the data to call the callback function with. Signed-off-by: Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@suse.de>
2009-08-23[SCSI] scsi_dh: add the interface scsi_dh_set_params()Chandra Seetharaman1-0/+5
When we moved the device handler functionality from dm layer to SCSI layer we dropped the parameter functionality. This path adds an interface to scsi dh layer to set device handler parameters. Basically, multipath layer need to create a string with all the parameters and call scsi_dh_set_params() after it called scsi_dh_attach() on a device. If a device handler provides such an interface it will handle the parameters as it expects them.

2008-07-26[SCSI] scsi_dh: attach to hardware handler from dm-mpathHannes Reinecke1-0/+10
multipath keeps a separate device table which may be more current than the built-in one. So we should make sure to always call ->attach whenever a multipath map with hardware handler is instantiated. And we should call ->detach on removal, too.

2008-07-26[SCSI] scsi_dh: Update EMC handlerHannes Reinecke1-0/+1
This patch converts the EMC device handler to use a proper state machine. We now also parse the extended INQUIRY information to determine if long trespass commands are supported. And we're now using the long trespass command correctly. And finally there's now an check at init time to refuse to attach to devices not supporting EMC-specific VPD pages.

2008-07-15[SCSI] scsi_dh: fix kconfig related build errorsChandra Seetharaman1-1/+11
Do not automatically "select" SCSI_DH for dm-multipath. If SCSI_DH doesn't exist,just do not allow hardware handlers to be used. Handle SCSI_DH being a module also. Make sure it doesn't allow DM_MULTIPATH to be compiled in when SCSI_DH is a module.

2008-06-05[SCSI] scsi_dh: add infrastructure for SCSI Device HandlersChandra Seetharaman1-0/+59
Some of the storage devices (that can be accessed through multiple paths), do need some special handling for 1. Activating the passive path of the storage access. 2. Decode and handle the special sense codes returned by the devices. 3. Handle the I/Os being sent to the passive path, especially during the device probe time. when accessed through multiple paths. As of today this special device handling is done at the dm-multipath layer using dm-handlers. That works well for (1); for (2) to be handled at dm layer, scsi sense information need to be exported from SCSI to dm-layer, which is not very attractive; (3) cannot be done at all at the dm layer. Device handler has been moved to SCSI mainly to handle (2) and (3) properly.
