When we get an unsolicited notification on local link went down,
zfcp_fsf_status_read_link_down() calls zfcp_fsf_link_down_info_eval().
This only blocks rports, and sets ZFCP_STATUS_ADAPTER_LINK_UNPLUGGED and
ZFCP_STATUS_COMMON_ERP_FAILED. Only the fc_host port_state changes to
"Linkdown", because zfcp_scsi_get_host_port_state() is an active callback
and uses the adapter status.
Other fc_host attributes model, port_id, port_type, speed, fabric_name (and
zfcp device attributes card_version, peer_wwpn, peer_wwnn, peer_d_id) which
depend on a local link, continued to show their last known "good" value.
Only if something triggered an exchange config data, some values were
updated to their unknown equivalent via case
FSF_EXCHANGE_CONFIG_DATA_INCOMPLETE due to local link down. Triggers for
exchange config data are adapter recovery, or reading any of the following
zfcp-specific scsi host sysfs attributes "requests", "megabytes", or
"seconds_active" in /sys/devices/css*/*.*.*/*.*.*/host*/scsi_host/host*/.
The other fc_host attributes active_fc4s and permanent_port_name continued
to show their last known "good" value. Only if something triggered an
exchange port data, some values changed. Active_fc4s became all zeros as
unknown equivalent during link down. Permanent_port_name does not depend
on a local link. But for non-NPIV FCP devices, permanent_port_name
erroneously became whatever value fc_host port_name had at that point in
time (see previous paragraph). Triggers for exchange port data are the
zfcp-specific scsi host sysfs attribute "utilization", or
[{reset,get}_fc_host_stats] write anything into "reset_statistics" or read
any of the other attributes under
/sys/devices/css*/*.*.*/*.*.*/host*/fc_host/host*/statistics/.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
