Add sysfs entry to check for write stream requests.
Move existing raid_bypass_cnt into a structure named pqi_raid_io_stats and
add member write_stream_cnt. These two counters are related because write
stream detection is only checked if an I/O request is eligible for bypass
(AIO).
Example usage:
lsscsi
[15:1:0:0] disk Adaptec LOGICAL VOLUME 0129 /dev/sdae
cat /sys/block/sdae/device/ssd_smart_path_enabled
1
^
|
+---- NOTE: here bypass has been enabled on device sdae
To read the counter for parity write stream requests:
cat /sys/block/sdae/device/write_stream_cnt
0x60cd507

Add controller logs to kdump.
Driver allocates DMA memory and communicates this address to FW. In the
event of system crash, host driver notifies the firmware about the crash
and firmware posts all the necessary logs in the pre-allocated host buffer
for firmware debugging.
Once firmware notifies the completion of the log uploading to the host
memory and host continues with the OS crash dump saving.
This is a "feature" driven capability and is backward compatible with
existing controller FW.
Rename some prefixes for OFA (Online-Firmware Activation ofa_*) buffers to
host_memory_*. So, not a lot of actual functional changes to
smartpqi_init.c, mainly determining the memory size allocation.
Added a function to notify the controller to copy debug data into host
memory before continuing kdump.
Most of the functional changes are in smartpqi_sis.c where the actual
handshaking is done.

Correct rescan flag race condition.
Multiple conditions are being evaluated before notifying OS to do a rescan.
Driver will skip rescanning the device if any one of the following
conditions are met:
- Devices that have not yet been added to the OS or devices that have been
removed.
- Devices which are already marked for removal or in the phase of removal.
Under very rare conditions, after logical volume size expansion, the OS
still sees the size of the logical volume which was before expansion.
The rescan flag in the driver is used to signal the need for a logical
volume rescan. A race condition can occur in the driver, and it leads to
one thread overwriting the flag inadvertently. As a result, driver is not
notifying the OS SML to rescan the logical volume.
Move device->rescan update into new function pqi_mark_volumes_for_rescan()
and protect with a spin lock.
Move check for device->rescan into new function pqi_volume_rescan_needed()
and protect function call with a spin_lock.

Allow SMP affinity to be changeable by disabling managed interrupts.
On distributions where the driver is enabled for multi-queue support the
driver utilizes kernel managed interrupts, which automatically distributes
interrupts to all available CPUs and assigns SMP affinity.
On most distributions, the affinity can not be changed by the user.
This change will allow managed interrupts to be disabled by the user via a
module parameter while still allowing multi-queue support to function
properly.
Use the module parameter disable_managed_interrupts=1

Fail all outstanding requests after a PCI linkdown.
Block access to device SCSI attributes during the following conditions:
"Cable pull" is called PQI_CTRL_SURPRISE_REMOVAL.
"PCIe Link Down" is called PQI_CTRL_GRACEFUL_REMOVAL.
Block access to device SCSI attributes during and in rare instances when
the controller goes offline.
Either outstanding requests or the access of SCSI attributes post linkdown
can lead to a hang.
Post linkdown, driver does not fail the outstanding requests leading to
long wait time before all the IOs eventually fail.
Also access of the SCSI attributes by host applications can lead to a
system hang.

Check the response code returned from the LUN reset task management
function and if it indicates the LUN is not valid, do not retry.
Reduce rescan worker delay to 5 seconds for the event handler only.
The removal of a drive from the OS could have been delayed up to 30 seconds
after being physically pulled.
The driver was retrying a LUN reset 3 times even though the return code
indiciated the LUN was no longer valid. There was a 10 second delay between
each retry. Additionally, the rescan worker was scheduled to run 10 seconds
after the driver received the event.

Remove UNIQUE_WWID_IN_REPORT_PHYS_LUN PQI feature.
This feature was originally added to solve a problem with NVMe drives, but
this problem has since been solved a different way, so this PQI feature is
no longer required for any type of drive.
The kernel was not creating symbolic links in sysfs between SATA drives and
their enclosure.
The driver was enabling the UNIQUE_WWID_IN_REPORT_PHYS_LUN PQI feature,
which causes the FW to return a WWID for SATA drives that is derived from a
unique ID read from the SATA drive itself. The driver was exposing this
WWID as the drive's SAS address. However, because this SAS address does not
match the SAS address returned by an enclosure's SES Page 0xA data, the
Linux kernel was not able to match a SATA drive with its enclosure.

Stop the OS from re-discovering multiple LUNs for tape drive and medium
changer.
Duplicate device nodes for Ultrium tape drive and medium changer are being
created.
The Ultrium tape drive is a multi-LUN SCSI target. It presents a LUN for
the tape drive and a 2nd LUN for the medium changer. Our controller FW
lists both LUNs in the RPL results.
As a result, the smartpqi driver exposes both devices to the OS. Then the
OS does its normal device discovery via the SCSI REPORT LUNS command, which
causes it to re-discover both devices a 2nd time, which results in the
duplicate device nodes.

Enhance performance by adding sequential stream detection for RAID5/RAID6
sequential write requests. Reduce stripe lock contention with full-stripe
write operations.
There is one common stripe lock for each RAID volume that can be set by
either the RAID engine or the AIO engine. The AIO path has I/O request
sizes well below the stripe size resulting in many Read-Modify-Write
operations.
Sending the request to the RAID engine allows for coalescing requests into
full stripe operations resulting in reduced Read-Modify-Write operations.
