This patch converts tcm_fc to use transport_init_session_tags()
pre-allocation logic for struct ft_cmd descriptors using per-cpu
session tag pooling in order to effectively avoid memory allocation
+ release for each received I/O.
It adds percpu_ida_alloc() in ft_recv_cmd() to obtain an tag and
locate ft_cmd from se_sess->sess_cmd_map[], and percpu_ida_free()
in ft_free_cmd() to release the tag based upon se_cmd->map_tag id.
It also uses a TCM_FC_DEFAULT_TAGS value of 512, that puts the
per se_sess->sess_cmd_map allocation at ~360K on 64-bit.
v2 changes:
- Handle possible tag < 0 failure with GFP_ATOMIC

The callback function of call_rcu() just calls a kfree(), so we
can use kfree_rcu() instead of call_rcu() + callback function.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

The lockdep warning below is in theory correct but it will be in really weird
rare situation that ends up that deadlock since the tcm fc session is hashed
based the rport id. Nonetheless, the complaining below is about rcu callback
that does the transport_deregister_session() is happening in softirq, where
transport_register_session() that happens earlier is not. This triggers the
lockdep warning below. So, just fix this to make lockdep happy by disabling
the soft irq before calling transport_register_session() in ft_prli.
BTW, this was found in FCoE VN2VN over two VMs, couple of create and destroy
would get this triggered.
v1: was enforcing register to be in softirq context which was not righ. See,
http://www.spinics.net/lists/target-devel/msg03614.html
v2: following comments from Roland&Nick (thanks), it seems we don't have to
do transport_deregister_session() in rcu callback, so move it into ft_sess_free()
but still do kfree() of the corresponding ft_sess struct in rcu callback to
make sure the ft_sess is not freed till the rcu callback.

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
"This contains the usual set of updates and bugfixes to target-core +
existing fabric module code, along with a handful of the patches
destined for v3.3 stable.
It also contains the necessary target-core infrastructure pieces
required to run using tcm_qla2xxx.ko WWPNs with the new Qlogic Fibre
Channel fabric module currently queued in target-pending/for-next-merge,
and coming for round 2.
The highlights for this series include:
- Add target_submit_tmr() helper function for fabric task management
(andy)
- Convert tcm_fc to use target_submit_tmr() (andy)
- Replace target core various cmd flags with a transport state (hch)
- Convert loopback to use workqueue submission (hch)
- Convert target core to use array_zalloc for tpg_lun_list (joern)
- Convert target core to use array_zalloc for device_list (joern)
- Add target core support for TMR_ABORT_TASK (nab)
- Add target core se_sess->sess_kref + get/put helpers (nab)
- Add target core se_node_acl->acl_kref for ->acl_free_comp usage
(nab)
- Convert iscsi-target to use target_put_session + sess_kref (nab)
- Fix tcm_fc fc_exch memory leak in ft_send_resp_status (nab)
- Fix ib_srpt srpt_handle_cmd send_ioctx->ioctx_kref leak on
exception (nab)
- Fix target core up handling of short INQUIRY buffers (roland)
- Untangle target-core front-end and back-end meanings of max_sectors

- Set loopback residual field for SCSI commands (roland)
- Fix target-core 16-bit target ports for SET TARGET PORT GROUPS

There is a typo here, it should be an unlock instead of a lock. The
original code will deadlock.

transport_init_session() and core_tmr_alloc_req() never return NULL,
they only return ERR_PTRs on error.
v2: Fix patch to return PTR_ERR(tl_nexus->se_sess) from Ankit Jain's

This is a comprehensive patch for FC-FC4 provider. tcm_fc is a FC-FC4
provider which glues target core (TCM) with Fiber channel library
(libfc). tcm_fc uses existing FC4 provider hooks from Fiber channel
library. This Fiber channel library is used by FCoE (transport - FC
over Ethernet) protocol driver as well.
Combination of modules such as Fiber channel library, tcm_fc, TCM
target core, and FCoE protocol driver enables functional FCoE target.
This patch includes initial commit for tcm_fc plus additional
enhancement, bug fixes.
This tcm_fc module essentially contains 3 entry points such as "prli",
"prlo", "recv". When process login request (ELS_PRLI) request is
received, Fiber channel library (libfc) module calls passive providers
(FC-FC4, tcm_fc) (if any registered) "prli" function. Likewise when
LOGO request is received, "prlo" function of passive provider is
invoked by libfc. For all other request (e.g. any read/write, task
management, LUN inquiry commands), "recv" function of passiver
provider is invoked by libfc. Those passive providers "prli, prlo,
recv" functions interact with TCM target core for requested operation.
This module was primarily developed by "Joe Eykholt" and there were
significant contributions from the people listed under signed-off.
