Pull SCSI target fixes from Nicholas Bellinger:
"The highlights this merge window include:
- Allow target fabric drivers to function as built-in. (Roland)
- Fix tcm_loop multi-TPG endpoint nexus bug. (Hannes)
- Move per device config_item_type into se_subsystem_api, allowing
configfs attributes to be defined at module_init time. (Jerome +
nab)
- Convert existing IBLOCK/FILEIO/RAMDISK/PSCSI/TCMU drivers to use
external configfs attributes. (nab)
- A number of iser-target fixes related to active session + network
portal shutdown stability during extended stress testing. (Sagi +
Slava)
- Dynamic allocation of T10-PI contexts for iser-target, fixing a
potentially bogus iscsi_np->tpg_np pointer reference in >= v3.14
code. (Sagi)
- iser-target performance + scalability improvements. (Sagi)
- Fixes for SPC-4 Persistent Reservation AllRegistrants spec
compliance. (Ilias + James + nab)
- Avoid potential short kern_sendmsg() in iscsi-target for now until
Al's conversion to use msghdr iteration is merged post -rc1.
(Viro)
Also, Sagi has requested a number of iser-target patches (9) that
address stability issues he's encountered during extended stress
testing be considered for v3.10.y + v3.14.y code. Given the amount of
LOC involved, it will certainly require extra backporting effort.
Apologies in advance to Greg-KH & Co on this. Sagi and I will be
working post-merge to ensure they each get applied correctly"
