scsi: target: Allow backends to hook into PR handling

For the cases where you want to export a device to a VM via a single
I_T nexus and want to passthrough the PR handling to the physical/real
device you have to use pscsi or tcmu. Both are good for specific uses
however for the case where you want good performance, and are not using
SCSI devices directly (using DM/MD RAID or multipath devices) then we are
out of luck.

The following patches allow iblock to mimimally hook into the LIO PR code
and then pass the PR handling to the physical device. Note that like with
the tcmu an pscsi cases it's only supported when you export the device via
one I_T nexus.

This patch adds the initial LIO callouts. The next patch will modify
iblock.

scsi: target: Rename sbc_ops to exec_cmd_ops

The next patches allow us to call the block layer's pr_ops from the

processing for SPC commands, so this renames sbc_ops to a more generic
exec_cmd_ops.

scsi: target: core: Fix backend plugging

target_core_iblock is plugging and unplugging on every command and this is
causing perf issues for drivers that prefer batched cmds. With recent
patches we can now take multiple cmds from a fabric driver queue and then
pass them down the backend drivers in a batch. This patch adds this support
by adding 2 callouts to the backend for plugging and unplugging the
device. Subsequent commits will add support for iblock and tcmu device
plugging.

scsi: target: tcmu: Make pgr_support and alua_support attributes writable

Currently in tcmu reservation commands are handled by core's pr
implementation (default) or completely rejected (emulate_pr set to 0). We
additionally want to be able to do full reservation handling in
userspace. Therefore we need a way to set TRANSPORT_FLAG_PASSTHROUGH_PGR.

The inverted flag is displayed by attribute pgr_support. Since we moved
the flag from transport/backend to se_device in the previous commit, we now
can make it changeable per device by allowing to write the attribute. The
new field transport_flags_changeable in transport/backend is used to reject
writing if not allowed for a backend.

Regarding ALUA we also want to be able to passthrough commands to userspace
in tcmu. Therefore we need TRANSPORT_FLAG_PASSTHROUGH_ALUA to be
changeable, because by setting it we can switch off all ALUA checks in
core. So we also set TRANSPORT_FLAG_PASSTHROUGH_ALUA in tcmu's
transport_flags_changeable.

Of course, ALUA and reservation handling in userspace will work only, if
session/nexus information is sent to userspace along with every
command. This will be object of a patch series announced by Mike Christie.

This patch adds a new group of files that are to be used to
have the kernel module execution some action. The next patch
will have target_core_user use the group/files to be able to block
a device and to reset its memory buffer used to pass commands
between user/kernel space.

This type of file is different from the existing device attributes
in that they may be write only and when written to they result in
the kernel module executing some function. These need to be
separate from the normal device attributes which get/set device
values so userspace can continue to loop over all the attribs and
get/set them during initialization.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

target: allow ALUA setup for some passthrough backends

This patch allows passthrough backends to use the core/base LIO
ALUA setup and state checks, but still handle the execution of
commands.

This will allow the target_core_user module to execute STPG and RTPG
in userspace, and not have to duplicate the ALUA state checks, path
information (needed so we can check if command is executable on
specific paths) and setup (rtslib sets/updates the configfs ALUA
interface like it does for iblock or file).

For STPG, the target_core_user userspace daemon, tcmu-runner will
still execute the STPG, and to update the core/base LIO state it
will use the existing configfs interface. For RTPG, tcmu-runner
will loop over configfs and/or cache the state.
