Pull SCSI scatter-gather list updates from James Bottomley: "This topic branch covers a fundamental change in how our sg lists are allocated to make mq more efficient by reducing the size of the preallocated sg list. This necessitates a large number of driver changes because the previous guarantee that if a driver specified SG_ALL as the size of its scatter list, it would get a non-chained list and didn't need to bother with scatterlist iterators is now broken and every driver *must* use scatterlist iterators. This was broken out as a separate topic because we need to convert all the drivers before pulling the trigger and unconverted drivers kept being found, necessitating a rebase" * tag 'scsi-sg' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi: (21 commits) scsi: core: don't preallocate small SGL in case of NO_SG_CHAIN scsi: lib/sg_pool.c: clear 'first_chunk' in case of no preallocation scsi: core: avoid preallocating big SGL for data scsi: core: avoid preallocating big SGL for protection information scsi: lib/sg_pool.c: improve APIs for allocating sg pool scsi: esp: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: NCR5380: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: wd33c93: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: ppa: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: pcmcia: nsp_cs: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: imm: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: aha152x: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: s390: zfcp_fc: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: staging: unisys: visorhba: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: usb: image: microtek: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: pmcraid: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: ipr: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: mvumi: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: lpfc: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist scsi: advansys: use sg helper to iterate over scatterlist ...
2019-06-20scsi: lib/sg_pool.c: clear 'first_chunk' in case of no preallocationMing Lei
If user doesn't ask to preallocate by passing zero 'nents_first_chunk' to sg_alloc_table_chained, we need to make sure that 'first_chunk' is cleared. Otherwise, __sg_alloc_table() still may think that the 1st SGL should be from the preallocation. Fixes the issue by clearing 'first_chunk' in sg_alloc_table_chained() if 'nents_first_chunk' is zero.

2019-06-20scsi: lib/sg_pool.c: improve APIs for allocating sg poolMing Lei
sg_alloc_table_chained() currently allows the caller to provide one preallocated SGL and returns if the requested number isn't bigger than size of that SGL. This is used to inline an SGL for an IO request. However, scattergather code only allows that size of the 1st preallocated SGL to be SG_CHUNK_SIZE(128). This means a substantial amount of memory (4KB) is claimed for the SGL for each IO request. If the I/O is small, it would be prudent to allocate a smaller SGL. Introduce an extra parameter to sg_alloc_table_chained() and sg_free_table_chained() for specifying size of the preallocated SGL. Both __sg_free_table() and __sg_alloc_table() assume that each SGL has the same size except for the last one. Change the code to allow both functions to accept a variable size for the 1st preallocated SGL.

2016-04-15lib: scatterlist: move SG pool code from SCSI driver to lib/sg_pool.cMing Lin
Now it's ready to move the mempool based SG chained allocator code from SCSI driver to lib/sg_pool.c, which will be compiled only based on a Kconfig symbol CONFIG_SG_POOL. SCSI selects CONFIG_SG_POOL. Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Signed-off-by: Ming Lin <ming.l@ssi.samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Sagi Grimberg <sagi@grimberg.me> Signed-off-by: Martin K.
