target/user: Add support for bidirectional commands
Enable TCMU to handle bidirectional SCSI commands. In such cases,
entries in iov[] cover both the Data-In and the Data-Out buffers. The
first iov_cnt entries correspond to the Data-Out buffer, while the
remaining iov_bidi_cnt entries correspond to the Data-In buffer.

The data in/out buffers are accessible via tht req.iov[] array. iov_cnt contains the number of entries in iov[] needed to describe either the Data-In or Data-Out buffers. For bidirectional commands, iov_cnt specifies how many iovec -entries cover the Data-Out area, and iov_bidi_count specifies how many +entries cover the Data-Out area, and iov_bidi_cnt specifies how many iovec entries immediately after that in iov[] cover the Data-In area. Just like other fields, iov.iov_base is an offset from the start of the region. |
