[PATCH 0/2] scsi: Create a lightweight FC Transport option for Virtual FC Hosts.

[PATCH 0/2] scsi: Create a lightweight FC Transport option for Virtual FC Hosts.

[Cathy Avery]

Currently virtual FC hosts or lightweight hosts are not able to be
manually scanned  via sysfs due to the fact that they do not
contain the complete characteristic set associated with a normal FC host
( missing rports, vports, etc ) and are not consistent with the current FC
transport model.

Patch 1: The patch provides a lightweight option to the current FC 
transport class. The new option is selected by a driver when it 
indicates it wants the lightweight transport in fc_function_template.

Patch 2: storvsc elects using the new lightweight FC host option.

Cathy Avery (2):
  scsi: scsi_transport_fc: Provide a lightweight option for Virtual FC
    Hosts.
  scsi: storvsc: Add support for FC lightweight host.

[PATCH 1/2] scsi: scsi_transport_fc: Provide a lightweight option for Virtual FC Hosts.

[Cathy Avery]

The patch provides a means to offer a lightweight option to the
current FC transport class. The new option is selected by a
driver when it indicates it wants the lightweight
transport via fc_function_template.

This need some really good documentation in the code and changelog
what "lightweight" means.  It's a pretty horrible term, btw.

This was a concept that James proposed almost a year ago. I agree, we need to document this
better.

Its not related but it is also not necessary so I took it out. The 
default scsi timeout handler will be used.

I can certainly put it back.

I'm not sure that we understand each other properly.

Has this patch already been committed?  If so, then there is no need to
put it back.

But it if hasn't been committed, can you resend the patches with that
bit broken out into a separate patch with its own changelog?  Patches
should only do one thing but you're  saying that it's doing two

I'm not sure that we understand each other properly.

Has this patch already been committed?  If so, then there is no need to
put it back.

But it if hasn't been committed, can you resend the patches with that
bit broken out into a separate patch with its own changelog?  Patches
should only do one thing but you're  saying that it's doing two
unrelated things.

Re: [PATCH 2/2] scsi: storvsc: Add support for FC lightweight host.

[Cathy Avery]

I'm sorry.  In my zeal to push out this patch I have done a poor job of 
communication on a number of levels.

The first patch which deals with the fc transport changes will not set 
the scsi_transport_template.eh_timed_out function directly during 
lightweight fc_attach_transport(). It instead relies on whatever was 
indicated as the scsi_host_template timeout handler during 
inscsi_times_out() scsi_error.c.

So yes in a sense it is related but now I believe I understand your 
point. Perhaps this would fall more under the heading of post 
fc_transport implementation storvsc cleanup necessitating its own patch.

I will break it out in the next go round.

Thanks,

Cathy

Ah...  Actually it probably belongs in this patch, it just wasn't
obvious to me how they were related (I'm a total newbie with this code
so that's probably part of the confusion).  Since you're resend the code
anyway, could you just add this information to the commit message?

Hi Cathy, out of curiosity: how does this relate to issue_lip operation? And how
to trigger manual scan with this patch?

Re: [PATCH 2/2] scsi: storvsc: Add support for FC lightweight host.

[Cathy Avery]

Hi,

There is no way to issue a lip directly as  the current client for this 
feature ( storvsc ) does not handle that request as a physical fc hba 
can. Storvsc only has two fc attributes exposed -  port_name and node_name.

You can rescan the bus with the standard echo "- - -" > 
/sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/scan.
