3.6.11.9-rc1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Steffen Maier [ Upstream commit 5fea4291deacd80188b996d2f555fc6a1940e5d4 ] Commit 86a9668a8d29ea711613e1cb37efa68e7c4db564 "[SCSI] zfcp: support for hardware data router" reduced the initial block queue limits in the scsi_host_template to the absolute minimum and adjusted them later on. However, the adjustment was too late for the BSG devices of Scsi_Host and fc_host. Therefore, ioctl(..., SG_IO, ...) with request or response size > 4kB to a BSG device of an fc_host or a Scsi_Host fails with EINVAL. As a result, users of such ioctl such as HBA_SendCTPassThru() in libzfcphbaapi return with error HBA_STATUS_ERROR. Initialize the block queue limits in zfcp_scsi_host_template to the greatest common denominator (GCD). While we cannot exploit the slightly enlarged maximum request size with data router, this should be neglectible. Doing so also avoids running into trouble after live guest relocation (LGR) / migration from a data router FCP device to an FCP device that does not support data router. In that case, zfcp would figure out the new limits on adapter recovery, but the fc_host and Scsi_Host (plus in fact all sdevs) still exist with the old and now too large queue limits. It should also OK, not to use half the size as in the DIX case, because fc_host and Scsi_Host do not transport FCP requests including SCSI commands using protection data.
