After commit ea2f0f77538c, a 416-CPU VM running on Hyper-V hangs during
boot because scsi_add_host_with_dma() sets shost->cmd_per_lun to a
negative number:
'max_outstanding_req_per_channel' is 352,
'max_sub_channels' is (416 - 1) / 4 = 103, so in storvsc_probe(),
scsi_driver.can_queue = 352 * (103 + 1) * (100 - 10) / 100 = 32947, which
is bigger than SHRT_MAX (i.e. 32767).
Fix the hang issue by capping scsi_driver.can_queue.
Add the below Fixed tag though ea2f0f77538c itself is good.

No need to put a version number in a comment, they do not track well
when people backport changes all over the place in other kernel trees.
If you want to refer to a commit, please do so in the documented way.
For this case, that would be:
ea2f0f77538c ("scsi: core: Cap scsi_host cmd_per_lun at can_queue")

Out of curiosity, are these values realistic? You're capping can_queue
just because of a data size issue, so, if these values are realistic,
seems a weak reason.

The different data sizes for cmd_per_lun and can_queue are problematic here.
I'd be more inclined to set cmd_per_lun to the same data size as
can_queue. We did discuss this when ea2f0f77538c was upstreamed
(actually it was the other way around - setting can_queue to 16b).

The calculated value of can_queue is not realistic. The blk-mq layer
caps the number of tags at 10240, so the excessively large value
calculated here didn't definitively break anything, though it can be
poor from a performance tuning standpoint. The algorithm used here
is fairly broken, particularly in VMs with large CPU counts. I have an
effort underway to fix it, but its part of a bigger set of changes to also
do a better job on the perf tuning aspects.

I can see that making can_queue be 16 bits would make sense.
And it also seems that both cmd_per_lun and can_queue should be
unsigned, though I don't the implications of making such a change.
But in today's world where cmd_per_lun is "short" and can_queue
is "int", ea2f0f77538c seems incorrect to me. The comparison should
be done as "int", not "short", in order to prevent the truncation
problem with can_queue that Dexuan's patch is trying to address.
The result will always fit in back into the "short" cmd_per_lun since
it is calculating a "min" function.

This fix works, but is a more of a temporary hack until I can finish
a larger overhaul of the algorithm. But for now, I think the better
fix is for ea2f0f77538c to do the comparison as "int" instead of "short".

Yeah, right. I think can_queue values > short_max was considered outside

I was thinking about BLK_MQ_MAX_DEPTH (#define'd as 10240), which
is used to limit the tag set size in blk_mq_alloc_tag_set(). When running
on large VMs on Hyper-V, we can see the "blk-mq: reduced tag depth
to 10240" message. :-(

Ah, right. The other related capping is the sdev queue depth, which is
now capped at max(1024, can_queue), see scsi_device_max_queue_depth().

It looks like shost->cmd_per_lun has been "short" since day 1.
I don't know whether it should be changed to unsigned int.
Thanks for the thoughts! I'll post a v2 like the below in 24 hours.
