Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"This is mostly update of the usual drivers: qla2xxx, hpsa, lpfc, ufs,
mpt3sas, ibmvscsi, megaraid_sas, bnx2fc and hisi_sas as well as the
removal of the osst driver (I heard from Willem privately that he
would like the driver removed because all his test hardware has
failed). Plus number of minor changes, spelling fixes and other
trivia.
The big merge conflict this time around is the SPDX licence tags.
Following discussion on linux-next, we believe our version to be more
accurate than the one in the tree, so the resolution is to take our
version for all the SPDX conflicts"
Note on the SPDX license tag conversion conflicts: the SCSI tree had
done its own SPDX conversion, which in some cases conflicted with the
treewide ones done by Thomas & co.
In almost all cases, the conflicts were purely syntactic: the SCSI tree
used the old-style SPDX tags ("GPL-2.0" and "GPL-2.0+") while the
treewide conversion had used the new-style ones ("GPL-2.0-only" and
"GPL-2.0-or-later").
In these cases I picked the new-style one.
In a few cases, the SPDX conversion was actually different, though. As
explained by James above, and in more detail in a pre-pull-request
thread:
"The other problem is actually substantive: In the libsas code Luben
Tuikov originally specified gpl 2.0 only by dint of stating:
* This file is licensed under GPLv2.
In all the libsas files, but then muddied the water by quoting GPLv2
verbatim (which includes the or later than language). So for these
files Christoph did the conversion to v2 only SPDX tags and Thomas
converted to v2 or later tags"
So in those cases, where the spdx tag substantially mattered, I took the
SCSI tree conversion of it, but then also took the opportunity to turn
the old-style "GPL-2.0" into a new-style "GPL-2.0-only" tag.
Similarly, when there were whitespace differences or other differences
to the comments around the copyright notices, I took the version from
the SCSI tree as being the more specific conversion.
Finally, in the spdx conversions that had no conflicts (because the
treewide ones hadn't been done for those files), I just took the SCSI
tree version as-is, even if it was old-style. The old-style conversions
are perfectly valid, even if the "-only" and "-or-later" versions are
perhaps more descriptive.

Issue Description:
We have seen cpu lock up issues from field if system has a large (more than
96) logical cpu count. SAS3.0 controller (Invader series) supports max 96
MSI-X vector and SAS3.5 product (Ventura) supports max 128 MSI-X vectors.
This may be a generic issue (if PCI device support completion on multiple
reply queues).
Let me explain it w.r.t megaraid_sas supported h/w just to simplify the
problem and possible changes to handle such issues. MegaRAID controller
supports multiple reply queues in completion path. Driver creates MSI-X
vectors for controller as "minimum of (FW supported Reply queues, Logical
CPUs)". If submitter is not interrupted via completion on same CPU, there
is a loop in the IO path. This behavior can cause hard/soft CPU lockups, IO
timeout, system sluggish etc.
Example - one CPU (e.g. CPU A) is busy submitting the IOs and another CPU
(e.g. CPU B) is busy with processing the corresponding IO's reply
descriptors from reply descriptor queue upon receiving the interrupts from
HBA. If CPU A is continuously pumping the IOs then always CPU B (which is
executing the ISR) will see the valid reply descriptors in the reply
descriptor queue and it will be continuously processing those reply
descriptor in a loop without quitting the ISR handler.
megaraid_sas driver will exit ISR handler if it finds unused reply
descriptor in the reply descriptor queue. Since CPU A will be continuously
sending the IOs, CPU B may always see a valid reply descriptor (posted by
HBA Firmware after processing the IO) in the reply descriptor queue. In
worst case, driver will not quit from this loop in the ISR handler.
Eventually, CPU lockup will be detected by watchdog.
Above mentioned behavior is not common if "rq_affinity" set to 2 or
affinity_hint is honored by irqbalancer as "exact". If rq_affinity is set
to 2, submitter will be always interrupted via completion on same CPU. If
irqbalancer is using "exact" policy, interrupt will be delivered to
submitter CPU.
Problem statement:
If CPU count to MSI-X vectors (reply descriptor Queues) count ratio is not
1:1, we still have exposure of issue explained above and for that we don't
have any solution.
Exposure of soft/hard lockup is seen if CPU count is more than MSI-X
supported by device.
If CPUs count to MSI-X vectors count ratio is not 1:1, (Other way, if
CPU counts to MSI-X vector count ratio is something like X:1, where X > 1)
then 'exact' irqbalance policy OR rq_affinity = 2 won't help to avoid CPU
hard/soft lockups. There won't be any one to one mapping between
CPU to MSI-X vector instead one MSI-X interrupt (or reply descriptor queue)
is shared with group/set of CPUs and there is a possibility of having a
loop in the IO path within that CPU group and may observe lockups.
For example: Consider a system having two NUMA nodes and each node having
four logical CPUs and also consider that number of MSI-X vectors enabled on
the HBA is two, then CPUs count to MSI-X vector count ratio as 4:1.
e.g.
MSI-X vector 0 is affinity to CPU 0, CPU 1, CPU 2 & CPU 3 of NUMA node 0 and
MSI-X vector 1 is affinity to CPU 4, CPU 5, CPU 6 & CPU 7 of NUMA node 1.
numactl --hardware
available: 2 nodes (0-1)
node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 --> MSI-X 0
node 0 size: 65536 MB
node 0 free: 63176 MB
node 1 cpus: 4 5 6 7 --> MSI-X 1
node 1 size: 65536 MB
node 1 free: 63176 MB
Assume that user started an application which uses all the CPUs of NUMA
node 0 for issuing the IOs. Only one CPU from affinity list (it can be any
cpu since this behavior depends upon irqbalance) CPU0 will receive the
interrupts from MSI-X 0 for all the IOs. Eventually, CPU 0 IO submission
percentage will be decreasing and ISR processing percentage will be
increasing as it is more busy with processing the interrupts. Gradually IO
submission percentage on CPU 0 will be zero and it's ISR processing
percentage will be 100% as IO loop has already formed within the
NUMA node 0, i.e. CPU 1, CPU 2 & CPU 3 will be continuously busy with
submitting the heavy IOs and only CPU 0 is busy in the ISR path as it
always find the valid reply descriptor in the reply descriptor queue.
Eventually, we will observe the hard lockup here.
Chances of occurring of hard/soft lockups are directly proportional to
value of X. If value of X is high, then chances of observing CPU lockups is
high.
Solution:
Use IRQ poll interface defined in "irq_poll.c".
megaraid_sas driver will execute ISR routine in softirq context and it will
always quit the loop based on budget provided in IRQ poll interface.
Driver will switch to IRQ poll only when more than a threshold number of
reply descriptors are handled in one ISR. Currently threshold is set as
1/4th of HBA queue depth.
In these scenarios (i.e. where CPUs count to MSI-X vectors count ratio is
X:1 (where X > 1)), IRQ poll interface will avoid CPU hard lockups due to
voluntary exit from the reply queue processing based on budget.
Note - Only one MSI-X vector is busy doing processing.
Select CONFIG_IRQ_POLL from driver Kconfig for driver compilation.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
