2017-02-22scsi: lpfc: NVME Initiator: Base modificationsJames Smart
NVME Initiator: Base modifications This patch adds base modifications for NVME initiator support. The base modifications consist of: - Formal split of SLI3 rings from SLI-4 WQs (sometimes referred to as rings as well) as implementation now widely varies between the two. - Addition of configuration modes: SCSI initiator only; NVME initiator only; NVME target only; and SCSI and NVME initiator. The configuration mode drives overall adapter configuration, offloads enabled, and resource splits. NVME support is only available on SLI-4 devices and newer fw. - Implements the following based on configuration mode: - Exchange resources are split by protocol; Obviously, if only 1 mode, then no split occurs. Default is 50/50. module attribute allows tuning. - Pools and config parameters are separated per-protocol - Each protocol has it's own set of queues, but share interrupt vectors. SCSI: SLI3 devices have few queues and the original style of queue allocation remains. SLI4 devices piggy back on an "io-channel" concept that eventually needs to merge with scsi-mq/blk-mq support (it is underway). For now, the paradigm continues as it existed prior. io channel allocates N msix and N WQs (N=4 default) and either round robins or uses cpu # modulo N for scheduling. A bunch of module parameters allow the configuration to be tuned. NVME (initiator): Allocates an msix per cpu (or whatever pci_alloc_irq_vectors gets) Allocates a WQ per cpu, and maps the WQs to msix on a WQ # modulo msix vector count basis. Module parameters exist to cap/control the config if desired. - Each protocol has its own buffer and dma pools. I apologize for the size of the patch.

2007-06-17[SCSI] lpfc: NPIV: add NPIV support on top of SLI-3James Smart
NPIV support is added to the driver. It utilizes the interfaces of the fc transport for the creation and deletion of vports. Within the driver, a new Scsi_Host is created for each NPIV instance, and is paired with a new instance of a FC port. This allows N FC Port elements to share a single Adapter.

2007-06-17[SCSI] lpfc: NPIV: add SLI-3 interfaceJames Smart
NPIV support is only available via new adapter interface extensions, termed SLI-3. This interface changes some of the basic behaviors such as command and response ring element sizes and data structures, as well as a change in buffer posting. Note: the new firmware extensions are found only on our mid-range and enterprise 4Gig adapters - so NPIV support is available only on these newer adapters. The latest firmware can be downloaded from the Emulex support page. Signed-off-by: James Smart <James.Smart@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@SteelEye.com>
2007-06-17[SCSI] lpfc: NPIV: split portsJames Smart
The driver is reorganized to separate the handling of the adapter from the handling of the FC port. Adapter handling includes submissions of command requests, receiving responses, and managing adapter resources. The FC port includes the discovery engine, login handling, and the mapping of a Scsi_Host on the "port". Although not a large functional change, as it touches core structures and functions, resulting in a large text delta.
