Subject: [PATCH V5 0/5] Add XEN pvSCSI support
Date: Mon, 18 Aug 2014 11:31:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1408354310-6362-1-git-send-email-jgross@suse.com> (raw)
This series adds XEN pvSCSI support. With pvSCSI it is possible to use physical
SCSI devices from a XEN domain.
The support consists of a backend in the privileged Domain-0 doing the real
I/O and a frontend in the unprivileged domU passing I/O-requests to the backend.
The code is taken (and adapted) from the original pvSCSI implementation done
for Linux 2.6 in 2008 by Fujitsu.
[PATCH V5 1/5] xen/events: support threaded irqs for interdomain event channels
[PATCH V5 2/5] Add XEN pvSCSI protocol description
[PATCH V5 3/5] Introduce xen-scsifront module
[PATCH V5 4/5] Introduce XEN scsiback module
[PATCH V5 5/5] add xen pvscsi maintainer
Changes in V5:
- Added patch to support threaded irqs for interdomain event channels
- several changes in xen-scsifront after comments from Christoph Hellwig
- several changes in xen-scsiback after comments from Christoph Hellwig
- several changes in xen-scsiback after comments from James Bottomley
Changes in V4:
- Re-add define for VSCSIIF_ACT_SCSI_SG_PRESET to vscsiif.h to indicate this
action value should not be used in future enhancements
Changes in V3:
- added some comments to the protocol header file
- removed the CDB emulation from xen-scsiback, handled by core target
infrastructure
- several changes in xen-scsifront after comments from Christoph Hellwig
Changes in V2:
- use core target infrastructure by backend instead of pure SCSI passthrough
- add support for larger SG lists by putting them in grant page(s)
- add command abort capability
