| | | | | | | | | | | | If a DASD device has been reserved by a Linux system, and later this reservation is ‘stolen’ by a second system by means of an unconditional reserve, then the first system receives a notification about this fact. With this patch such an event can be either ignored, as before, or it can be used to let the device fail all I/O request, so that the device will not block anymore.

| | | | | | | | | | When a new path is added at runtime, the CIO layer will call the drivers path_event callback. The DASD device driver uses this callback to trigger a path verification for the new path. The driver will use only those paths for I/O, which have been successfully verified.

* [S390] dasd: fix unsolicited interrupt recognitionStefan Weinhuber2010-10-251-40/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The dasd interrupt handler needs to distinguish solicited from unsolicited interrupts, as unsolicited interrupts may require special handling (e.g. summary unit checks) and solicited interrupts require proper error recovery for the failed I/O request. The interrupt handler needs to check several bit fields in the interrupt response block (irb) to make this distinction. So far our check of the status control bits has not been specific enough, which may lead to a failed request getting just retried instead of the necessary error recovery.

* [S390] dasd: allocate fallback cqr for reserve/releaseStefan Weinhuber2010-08-091-13/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The DASD reserve and release ioctls use the preallocated memory pool of the respective device to build their CCW requests. However, when the device is busy, the pool may already be empty and the ioctl fails. Usually this can be recovered by calling the ioctl again, but in a situation in which we need to issue an unconditional reserve to make a device operational again, this would be not recoverable. To avoid a failure due to lack of memory, DASD device driver will preallocate enough memory for a single reserve/release request, which can be used if normal allocation fails.

* [S390] dasd: improve error recovery for internal I/OStefan Weinhuber2009-12-071-17/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of the error conditions reported by a FICON storage server indicate situations which can be recovered. Sometimes the host just needs to retry an I/O request, but sometimes the recovery is more complex and requires the device driver to wait, choose a different path, etc. The DASD device driver has a fully featured error recovery for normal block layer I/O, but not for internal I/O request which are for example used during the device bring up. This can lead to situations where the IPL of a system fails because DASD devices are not properly recognized. This patch will extend the internal I/O handling to use the existing error recovery procedures.

| | | | | | | | | | | The DASD device driver needs to explicitly enable the prefix command on the storage server, before it can be used. Originally we enabled this command along with others only if we wanted to support PAV.

* [S390] dasd: fix race condition in resume codeStefan Haberland2009-10-061-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a race while re-reading the device characteristics. After cleaning the memory area a cqr is build which reads the device characteristics. This may take a rather long time and the device characteristics structure is zero during this. Now it could be possible that the block tasklet starts working and a new cqr will be build. The build_cp command refers to the device characteristics structure and this may lead into a divide by zero exception. Fix this by re-reading the device characteristics into a temporary structur and copy the data to the original structure. Also take the ccwdev_lock.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The DASD device driver reads the feature codes of a device during device initialization. These codes are later used to determine the availability of advanced features like PAV or High Performance FICON. Some very old devices do not support the command to read feature codes and the initialization routine fails. As the feature codes are not necessary for basic DASD operations, we can support such devices by just ignoring missing feature codes.
