We limit ourselves to a configurable maximum number of pages used as
temporary bio pages.
If the configured "max_buffers" is not big enough to match the bandwidth
of the respective deployment, a distributed deadlock could be triggered
by e.g. fast online verify and heavy application IO.
TCP connections would block on congestion, because both receivers
would wait on pages to become available.
Fortunately the respective senders in this case would be able to give
back some pages already. So do that.

In case a write failes on the local disk, go into D_INCONSISTENT
disk state. That causes future reads of that block to be shipped
to the peer.
Read retry remote was already in place.
Actually the documentation needs to get fixed now. Since the
application is still shielded from the error. (as long as we have
only a single disk failing) The difference to detach is that
we keep the disk. And therefore might keep all the other, still
working sectors up to date.

The sector number on empty barrier requests may (will?) be -1, which,
given that it's being treated as unsigned 64-bit quantity, will almost
always exceed the actual (virtual) disk's size.
Inspired by Konrad's "When writting barriers set the sector number to
zero...".
While at it also add overflow checking to the math in vbd_translate().

vbd_resize() up_read()'s xs_state.suspend_mutex twice in a row via double
xenbus_transaction_end() calls. The next down_read() in
xenbus_transaction_start() (at eg. the next resize attempt) hangs.

If the backend supports the 'feature-flush-cache' mode, use that
instead of the 'feature-barrier' support.
Currently there are three backends that support the 'feature-flush-cache'
mode: NetBSD, Solaris and Linux kernel. The 'flush' option is much
light-weight version than the 'barrier' support so lets try to use as
there are no filesystems in the kernel that use full barriers anymore.

barrier variable is int, not long. This overflow caused another variable
override: "err" (in PV code) and "binfo" (in xenlinux code -
drivers/xen/blkfront/blkfront.c). The later caused incorrect device
flags (RO/removable etc).

This is to allow number of commands reserved for use by SCSI tape drives
and medium changers to be adjusted at driver load time via the kernel
parameter cciss_tape_cmds, with a default value of 6, and a range
of 2 - 16 inclusive. Previously, the driver limited the number of
commands which could be queued to the SCSI half of the the driver
to only 2. This is to fix the problem that if you had more than
two tape drives, you couldn't, for example, erase or rewind them all
at the same time.

on driver load, if reset_devices is set, and the hard reset
attempts fail, try to bring up the controller to the point that
a command can be sent, and send it a soft reset command, then
after the reset undo whatever driver initialization was done to get
it to the point to take a command, and re-do it after the reset.
This is to get kdump to work on all the "non-resettable" controllers
(except 64xx controllers which can't be reset due to the potentially
shared cache module.)

The bit-2-doorbell reset method seemed to cause (survivable) NMIs
on some systems and (unsurvivable) IOCK NMIs on some G7 servers.
Firmware guys implemented a new doorbell method to alleviate these
problems triggered by bit 5 of the doorbell register. We want to
use it if it's available.

Detect failure of controller reset by noticing if the 32 bytes of
"driver version" we store on the hardware in the config table
fail to get zeroed out. Previously we noticed if the controller
did not transition to "simple mode", but this did not detect reset
failure if the controller was already in simple mode prior to
the reset attempt (e.g. due to module parameter hpsa_simple_mode=1).

If one runs a simple fio request with random read/write with a
20%/80% ratio, the numbers are incredibly bad when using the CFQ scheduler.

The problem as explained by Vivek Goyal was:
".. that difference is that sync vs async requests. In the case of
a kernel thread submitting IO, [..] all the WRITES might be being
considered as async and will go in a different queue. If you mix those
with some READS, they are always sync and will go in differnet queue.
In presence of sync queue, CFQ will idle and choke up WRITES in
an attempt to improve latencies of READs.
In case of AIO [note: this is what QEMU qdisk is doing] , [..]
it is direct IO and both READS and WRITES will be considered SYNC
and will go in a single queue and no choking of WRITES will take place."
The solution is quite simple, tack on REQ_SYNC (which is
what the WRITE_ODIRECT macro points to) and the numbers go
back up.

We used to the plug/unplug on the submit_bio. But that means
if within a stream of WRITE, WRITE, WRITE,...,WRITE we have
one READ, it could stall the pipeline (as the 'submio_bio'
could trigger the unplug_fnc to be called and stall/sync
when doing the READ). Instead we want to move the unplugging
when the whole (or as a much as possible) ring buffer has been
processed. This also eliminates us doing plug/unplug for
each request.

Disk event code automatically blocks events on excl write. This is
primarily to avoid issuing polling commands while burning is in
progress. This behavior doesn't fit other types of devices with
removeable media where polling commands don't have adverse side
effects and door locking usually doesn't exist.
This patch introduces new genhd flag which controls the auto-blocking
behavior and uses it to enable auto-blocking only on optical devices.
