RE: [PATCH] scsi: Add SHT->unlocked_qcmd for host_lock less SHT->queuecommand() dispatch

[Jack Wang]

From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Greetings all,

This patch adds scsi_dispatch_cmd_unlocked() and scsi_dispatch_cmd_locked()
which are now called directly from scsi_dispatch_cmd() depending upon what
is reported by SHT->unlocked_qcmd on a per driver basis.  Note that by
default
unlocked_qcmd is disabled, and all LLDs not defining a SHT->unlocked_qcmd
will
be using the legacy scsi_dispatch_cmd_locked().

This patch also drops the usage of scsi_cmd_get_serial() in
scsi_dispatch_cmd()
and assumes the legacy SCSI LLDs that depend upon struct
scsi_cmnd->serial_number
will call the now EXPORT_SYMBOL()'ed scsi_cmd_get_serial() call.

This patch also adds a cmd->eh_eflags |= SCSI_EH_SOFTIRQ_DONE assignment in
scsi_softirq_done() in order to signal scsi_try_to_abort_cmd() that the
command
has been completed.  This patch uses blk_test_rq_complete() together with a
new SCSI_EH_SOFTIRQ_DONE in scsi_error.c:scsi_try_to_abort_cmd() in order to
handle the struct scsi_cmnd timeout case intsead w/o scmd->serial_number
usage:

-	if (scmd->serial_number == 0)
+	if ((blk_test_rq_complete(scmd->request)) &&
+	    (scmd->eh_eflags & SCSI_EH_SOFTIRQ_DONE))
		return SUCCESS;

Finally, this patch also converts the remaining struct
Scsi_Host->cmd_serial_number
to atomic_t following a recommedation by Joe Eykholt to start struct
Scsi_Host->
cmd_serial_number at 1, and increment each serial_number by 2 so that the
serial is odd, and wraps to 1 instead of 0.  struct
Scsi_Host->cmd_serial_number
is initialized to '1' in drivers/scsi/hosts.c:scsi_host_alloc().

Along with the changes to SCSI ML, this series includes the following LLD
commits to enable lock-less operation for certain LLDs, and adds the explict
scsi_cmd_get_serial() to the legacy LLDs still requring cmd->serial_number
for anything beyond informational purposes:
