Dmitry V. Levin 762b6f00a9 uapi: fix linux/target_core_user.h userspace compilation errors
Consistently use types from linux/types.h to fix the following
linux/target_core_user.h userspace compilation errors:

/usr/include/linux/target_core_user.h:108:4: error: unknown type name 'uint32_t'
    uint32_t iov_cnt;

Sheng Yang 32c76de346 target/user: Report capability of handling out-of-order completions to userspace
TCMU_MAILBOX_FLAG_CAP_OOOC was introduced, and userspace can check the flag
for out-of-order completion capability support.

Also update the document on how to use the feature.

Andy Grover 0ad46af8a6 target: Version 2 of TCMU ABI
The initial version of TCMU (in 3.18) does not properly handle
bidirectional SCSI commands -- those with both an in and out buffer. In
looking to fix this it also became clear that TCMU's support for adding
new types of entries (opcodes) to the command ring was broken. We need
to fix this now, so that future issues can be handled properly by adding
new opcodes.

We make the most of this ABI break by enabling bidi cmd handling within
TCMP_OP_CMD opcode. Add an iov_bidi_cnt field to tcmu_cmd_entry.req.
This enables TCMU to describe bidi commands, but further kernel work is
needed for full bidi support.

Enlarge tcmu_cmd_entry_hdr by 32 bits by pulling in cmd_id and __pad1. Turn
__pad1 into two 8 bit flags fields, for kernel-set and userspace-set flags,
"kflags" and "uflags" respectively.

Update version fields so userspace can tell the interface is changed.

Update tcmu-design.txt with details of how new stuff works:
- Specify an additional requirement for userspace to set UNKNOWN_OP
  (bit 0) in hdr.uflags for unknown/unhandled opcodes.
- Define how Data-In and Data-Out fields are described in req.iov[]

Changed in v2:
- Change name of SKIPPED bit to UNKNOWN bit
- PAD op does not set the bit any more
- Change len_op helper functions to take just len_op, not the whole struct
- Change version to 2 in missed spots, and use defines
- Add 16 unused bytes to cmd_entry.req, in case additional SAM cmd
  parameters need to be included
- Add iov_dif_cnt field to specify buffers used for DIF info in iov[]
- Rearrange fields to naturally align cdb_off
- Handle if userspace sets UNKNOWN_OP by indicating failure of the cmd
- Wrap some overly long UPDATE_HEAD lines

(Add missing req.iov_bidi_cnt + req.iov_dif_cnt zeroing - Ilias)

Kyle McMartin 3875f15207 uapi/linux/target_core_user.h: fix headers_install.sh badness
scripts/headers_install.sh will transform __packed to
__attribute__((packed)), so the #ifndef is not necessary.
(and, in fact, it's problematic, because we'll end up with the header
 containing:
#ifndef __attribute__((packed))
#define __attribu...
and so forth.)

Andy Grover 7c9e7a6fe1 target: Add a user-passthrough backstore
Add a LIO storage engine that presents commands to userspace for execution.
This would allow more complex backstores to be implemented out-of-kernel,
and also make experimentation a-la FUSE (but at the SCSI level -- "SUSE"?)
possible.

It uses a mmap()able UIO device per LUN to share a command ring and data
area. The commands are raw SCSI CDBs and iovs for in/out data. The command
ring is also reused for returning scsi command status and optional sense
data.

This implementation is based on Shaohua Li's earlier version but heavily
modified. Differences include:

* Shared memory allocated by kernel, not locked-down user pages
* Single ring for command request and response
* Offsets instead of embedded pointers
* Generic SCSI CDB passthrough instead of per-cmd specialization in ring
  format.
* Uses UIO device instead of anon_file passed in mailbox.
* Optional in-kernel handling of some commands.

The main reason for these differences is to permit greater resiliency
if the user process dies or hangs.

Things not yet implemented (on purpose):

* Zero copy. The data area is flexible enough to allow page flipping or
  backend-allocated pages to be used by fabrics, but it's not clear these
  are performance wins. Can come later.
* Out-of-order command completion by userspace. Possible to add by just
  allowing userspace to change cmd_id in rsp cmd entries, but currently
  not supported.
* No locks between kernel cmd submission and completion routines. Sounds
  like it's possible, but this can come later.
* Sparse allocation of mmaped area. Current code vmallocs the whole thing.
  If the mapped area was larger and not fully mapped then the driver would
  have more freedom to change cmd and data area sizes based on demand.

Current code open issues:

* The use of idrs may be overkill -- we maybe can replace them with a
  simple counter to generate cmd_ids, and a hash table to get a cmd_id's
  associated pointer.
* Use of a free-running counter for cmd ring instead of explicit modulo
  math. This would require power-of-2 cmd ring size.
