Subject: [PATCH 0/4] [Target_Core_Mod] Add explict/implict ALUA transition
for primary/secondary access states
Greetings folks,
This patch series adds complete fabric level support for Asymmetric
Logical Unit Assignment (ALUA) explict (w/ remote SET_TARGET_PORT_GROUPS
in-band method) and implict (w/ local configfs method) with all SPC-4
defined ALUA primary and secondary access states, as well as the full
ALUA logical unit group abstraction to the lio-core-2.6.git tree.
This patch series has been tested on v2.6.31-rc5 x86 KVM using sg_stpg
for the explict transition case from Open-iSCSI Initiator, and using
lio-utils.git CLI ops for the implict case. The userspace commits to
make it go can be found here:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/storage/lio/lio-utils.git;a=commitdiff;h=481916be1c568fbab505ade534527d60b33bbb8a
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/storage/lio/lio-utils.git;a=commitdiff;h=7e3e2134397145ce75aba2cbd1725abe761bb8bd
Here are the patches:
[PATCH 1/4] [Target_Core_Mod/ALUA]: Add support for explict/implict ALUA primary/secondary state transition
[PATCH 2/4] [Target_Core_Mod/ConfigFS]: Add implict ALUA attributes and move tg_pt_gp list
[PATCH 3/4] [LIO-Target]: Add ALUA Active/NonOptimized state check
[PATCH 4/4] [LIO-Target/ConfigFS]: Add attribute for ALUA secondary port access state
Any comments from the SCSI and multipath folks would be apperciated,
Many thanks for your most valuable of time,

Here is what it looks like in action with Open-iSCSI Initiators using scsi_dh_alua + multipath:
*) A single TCM storage object (iblock/lvm_test0) has two non default ALUA target port groups
created for itself, lio_alua_west and lio_alua_east. Each of these two ALUA target port groups
has a diSCSI target port/LUN active from different iSCSI target endpoints:
target:~# tcm_node --listaluatpgs iblock_0/lvm_test0
\------> lio_alua_west Target Port Group ID: 1
Active ALUA Access Type(s): Implict and Explict
Primary Access State: Active/Optimized
Primary Access Status: None
Preferred Bit: 0
Active/NonOptimized Delay in milliseconds: 100
\------> TG Port Group Members
iSCSI/iqn.2003-01.org.linux-iscsi.target.i686:sn.e475ed6fcdd0/tpgt_1/lun_0
\------> lio_alua_east Target Port Group ID: 2
Active ALUA Access Type(s): Implict and Explict
Primary Access State: Active/Optimized
Primary Access Status: None
Preferred Bit: 0
Active/NonOptimized Delay in milliseconds: 100
\------> TG Port Group Members
iSCSI/iqn.2003-01.org.linux-iscsi.target.i686:sn.cff3eedbd2fd/tpgt_1/lun_0
<SNIP>
*) On the Initiator side, two sessions are created to each iSCSI target endpoint:
[ 877.235778] sd 4:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg8 type 0
[ 877.669556] sd 4:0:0:0: alua: supports implicit and explicit TPGS
[ 877.676442] sd 4:0:0:0: alua: port group 01 rel port 02
[ 877.681561] sd 4:0:0:0: alua: port group 01 state A supports TOUSNA
[ 877.726035] sd 4:0:0:0: alua: port group 01 state A supports TOUSNA
[ 877.746897] sd 3:0:0:0: alua: supports implicit and explicit TPGS
[ 877.755445] sd 3:0:0:0: alua: port group 01 rel port 01
[ 877.760968] sd 3:0:0:0: alua: port group 01 state A supports TOUSNA
The two iSCSI Target port/LUNs appear as /dev/sde and /dev/sdi on the initiator under mpath4:
mpath4 (36001405a97e4ce21c0711de829b000c2) dm-2 LIO-ORG,IBLOCK
[size=500M][features=0][hwhandler=1 alua]
\_ round-robin 0 [prio=100][enabled]
\_ 3:0:0:0 sde 8:64 [active][ready]
\_ 4:0:0:0 sdi 8:128 [active][ready]
*) Next using explict ALUA from the initiator, change TG_PT_GP_ID=1 (lio_alua_west) to Active/NonOptimized:
initiator# sg_stpg -vvv -a /dev/sdi --tp 1
open /dev/sdi with flags=0x802
set target port groups cdb: a4 0a 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 08 00 00
set target port groups parameter list:
00 00 00 00 01 00 00 01
duration=8 ms
*) Send a REPORT_TARGET_PORT_GROUPS from the initiator to one of the iSCSI LUNs:
initiator# sg_rtpg --decode /dev/sde
Report target port groups:
<SNIP>
target port group id : 0x2 , Pref=0
target port group asymmetric access state : 0x00 (active/optimized)
T_SUP : 1, O_SUP : 1, U_SUP : 1, S_SUP : 1, AN_SUP : 1, AO_SUP : 1
status code : 0x00 (no status available)
vendor unique status : 0x00
target port count : 01
Relative target port ids:
0x02
target port group id : 0x1 , Pref=0
target port group asymmetric access state : 0x01 (active/non optimized)
T_SUP : 1, O_SUP : 1, U_SUP : 1, S_SUP : 1, AN_SUP : 1, AO_SUP : 1
status code : 0x01 (target port asym. state changed by SET TARGET PORT GROUPS command)
vendor unique status : 0x00
target port count : 01
Relative target port ids:
0x01
*) Then, using implict ALUA via configfs, change lio_alua_east (TG_PT_GP_ID=2) to Standby:
target:~# tcm_node --setaluastate iblock_0/lvm_test0 lio_alua_east s
Successfully set primary ALUA access state for TG PT Group: lio_alua_east to Standby
and then check the status again to see the updated Primary Access State and Status for lio_alua_east:
target:~# tcm_node --listaluatpgs iblock_0/lvm_test0
\------> lio_alua_west Target Port Group ID: 1
Active ALUA Access Type(s): Implict and Explict
Primary Access State: Active/NonOptimized
Primary Access Status: Altered by Explict STPG
Preferred Bit: 0
Active/NonOptimized Delay in milliseconds: 100
\------> TG Port Group Members
iSCSI/iqn.2003-01.org.linux-iscsi.target.i686:sn.e475ed6fcdd0/tpgt_1/lun_0
\------> lio_alua_east Target Port Group ID: 2
Active ALUA Access Type(s): Implict and Explict
Primary Access State: Standby
Primary Access Status: Altered by Implict ALUA
Preferred Bit: 0
Active/NonOptimized Delay in milliseconds: 100
\------> TG Port Group Members
iSCSI/iqn.2003-01.org.linux-iscsi.target.i686:sn.cff3eedbd2fd/tpgt_1/lun_0
<SNIP>
*) On the initiator side, check multipath status for lio_alua_east (TG_PT_GP_ID=2) going into Standby:
mpath4 (36001405a97e4ce21c0711de829b000c2) dm-2 LIO-ORG,IBLOCK
[size=500M][features=0][hwhandler=1 alua]
\_ round-robin 0 [prio=10][enabled]
\_ 3:0:0:0 sde 8:64 [active][ready]
\_ 4:0:0:0 sdi 8:128 [active][faulty]
*) Using implict ALUA via configfs, set lio_alua_east (TG_PT_GP_ID=2) back to Active/Optimized:
target:~# tcm_node --setaluastate iblock_0/lvm_test0 lio_alua_east o
Successfully set primary ALUA access state for TG PT Group: lio_alua_east to Active/Optimized
*) Set the preferred bit for lio_alua_east (TG_PT_GP_ID=2)
target:~# tcm_node --setaluapref iblock_0/lvm_test0 lio_alua_east
Successfully enabled PREFERRED bit for TG Pt Group: lio_alua_east
*) Issue REPORT_TARGET_PORT_GROUPS again from the initiator side to see the updated status:
initiator# sg_rtpg --decode /dev/sde
Report target port groups:
<SNIP>
target port group id : 0x2 , Pref=1
target port group asymmetric access state : 0x00 (active/optimized)
T_SUP : 1, O_SUP : 1, U_SUP : 1, S_SUP : 1, AN_SUP : 1, AO_SUP : 1
status code : 0x02 (target port asym. state changed by implicit lu behaviour)
vendor unique status : 0x00
target port count : 01
Relative target port ids:
0x02
target port group id : 0x1 , Pref=0
target port group asymmetric access state : 0x01 (active/non optimized)
T_SUP : 1, O_SUP : 1, U_SUP : 1, S_SUP : 1, AN_SUP : 1, AO_SUP : 1
status code : 0x01 (target port asym. state changed by SET TARGET PORT GROUPS command)
vendor unique status : 0x00
target port count : 01
Relative target port ids:
0x01
*) And check the multipath status again from the initiator to see the updates status:
mpath4 (36001405a97e4ce21c0711de829b000c2) dm-2 LIO-ORG,IBLOCK
[size=500M][features=0][hwhandler=1 alua]
\_ round-robin 0 [prio=60][enabled]
\_ 3:0:0:0 sde 8:64 [active][ready]
\_ 4:0:0:0 sdi 8:128 [active][ready]
*) And finally, the output for the above sequence from dmesg on the target side showing the
explict/implict ALUA state transitions and the allocated UNIT ATTENTIONs to notify SCSI Initiator
Ports of the transitions:
