scsi: core: Disable CDL by default
commit 52912ca87e2b810e5acdcdc452593d30c9187d8f upstream.
For SCSI devices supporting the Command Duration Limits feature set, the user can enable/disable this feature use through the sysfs device attribute "cdl_enable". This attribute modification triggers a call to scsi_cdl_enable() to enable and disable the feature for ATA devices and set the scsi device cdl_enable field to the user provided bool value. For SCSI devices supporting CDL, the feature set is always enabled and scsi_cdl_enable() is reduced to setting the cdl_enable field.
However, for ATA devices, a drive may spin-up with the CDL feature enabled by default. But the SCSI device cdl_enable field is always initialized to false (CDL disabled), regardless of the actual device CDL feature state. For ATA devices managed by libata (or libsas), libata-core always disables the CDL feature set when the device is attached, thus syncing the state of the CDL feature on the device and of the SCSI device cdl_enable field. However, for ATA devices connected to a SAS HBA, the CDL feature is not disabled on scan for ATA devices that have this feature enabled by default, leading to an inconsistent state of the feature on the device with the SCSI device cdl_enable field.
Avoid this inconsistency by adding a call to scsi_cdl_enable() in scsi_cdl_check() to make sure that the device-side state of the CDL feature set always matches the scsi device cdl_enable field state. This implies that CDL will always be disabled for ATA devices connected to SAS HBAs, which is consistent with libata/libsas initialization of the device.

scsi: core: Handle devices which return an unusually large VPD page count
commit d09c05aa35909adb7d29f92f0cd79fdcd1338ef0 upstream.
Peter Schneider reported that a system would no longer boot after updating to 6.8.4. Peter bisected the issue and identified commit b5fc07a5fb56 ("scsi: core: Consult supported VPD page list prior to fetching page") as being the culprit.
Turns out the enclosure device in Peter's system reports a byteswapped page length for VPD page 0. It reports "02 00" as page length instead of "00 02". This causes us to attempt to access 516 bytes (page length + header) of information despite only 2 pages being present.
Limit the page search scope to the size of our VPD buffer to guard against devices returning a larger page count than requested.

scsi: core: Consult supported VPD page list prior to fetching page
commit b5fc07a5fb56216a49e6c1d0b172d5464d99a89b upstream.
Commit c92a6b5d6335 ("scsi: core: Query VPD size before getting full page") removed the logic which checks whether a VPD page is present on the supported pages list before asking for the page itself. That was done because SPC helpfully states "The Supported VPD Pages VPD page list may or may not include all the VPD pages that are able to be returned by the device server". Testing had revealed a few devices that supported some of the 0xBn pages but didn't actually list them in page 0.
Julian Sikorski bisected a problem with his drive resetting during discovery to the commit above. As it turns out, this particular drive firmware will crash if we attempt to fetch page 0xB9.
Various approaches were attempted to work around this. In the end, reinstating the logic that consults VPD page 0 before fetching any other page was the path of least resistance. A firmware update for the devices which originally compelled us to remove the check has since been released.

scsi: core: ata: Do no try to probe for CDL on old drives
Some old drives (e.g. an Ultra320 SCSI disk as reported by John) do not seem to execute MAINTENANCE_IN / MI_REPORT_SUPPORTED_OPERATION_CODES
scsi: core: ata: Do no try to probe for CDL on old drives
Some old drives (e.g. an Ultra320 SCSI disk as reported by John) do not seem to execute MAINTENANCE_IN / MI_REPORT_SUPPORTED_OPERATION_CODES commands correctly and hang when a non-zero service action is specified (one command format with service action case in scsi_report_opcode()).
Currently, CDL probing with scsi_cdl_check_cmd() is the only caller using a non zero service action for scsi_report_opcode(). To avoid issues with these old drives, do not attempt CDL probe if the device reports support for an SPC version lower than 5 (CDL was introduced in SPC-5). To keep things working with ATA devices which probe for the CDL T2A and T2B pages introduced with SPC-6, modify ata_scsiop_inq_std() to claim SPC-6 version compatibility for ATA drives supporting CDL.
SPC-6 standard version number is defined as Dh (= 13) in SPC-6 r09. Fix scsi_probe_lun() to correctly capture this value by changing the bit mask for the second byte of the INQUIRY response from 0x7 to 0xf. include/scsi/scsi.h is modified to add the definition SCSI_SPC_6 with the value 14 (Dh + 1). The missing definitions for the SCSI_SPC_4 and SCSI_SPC_5 versions are also added.

Merge patch series "Add Command Duration Limits support"
Niklas Cassel <nks@flawful.org> says:
This series adds support for Command Duration Limits. The series is based on linux tag: v6.4-rc1 The series can also be found in git: https://github.com/floatious/linux/commits/cdl-v7
================= CDL in ATA / SCSI ================= Command Duration Limits is defined in: T13 ATA Command Set - 5 (ACS-5) and T10 SCSI Primary Commands - 6 (SPC-6) respectively (a simpler version of CDL is defined in T10 SPC-5).
CDL defines Duration Limits Descriptors (DLD). 7 DLDs for read commands and 7 DLDs for write commands. Simply put, a DLD contains a limit and a policy.
A command can specify that a certain limit should be applied by setting the DLD index field (3 bits, so 0-7) in the command itself.
The DLD index points to one of the 7 DLDs. DLD index 0 means no descriptor, so no limit. DLD index 1-7 means DLD 1-7.
A DLD can have a few different policies, but the two major ones are: -Policy 0xF (abort), command will be completed with command aborted error (ATA) or status CHECK CONDITION (SCSI), with sense data indicating that the command timed out. -Policy 0xD (complete-unavailable), command will be completed without error (ATA) or status GOOD (SCSI), with sense data indicating that the command timed out. Note that the command will not have transferred any data to/from the device when the command timed out, even though the command returned success.
Regardless of the CDL policy, in case of a CDL timeout, the I/O will result in a -ETIME error to user-space.
The DLDs are defined in the CDL log page(s) and are readable and writable. Reading and writing the CDL DLDs are outside the scope of the kernel. If a user wants to read or write the descriptors, they can do so using a user-space application that sends passthrough commands, such as cdl-tools: https://github.com/westerndigitalcorporation/cdl-tools
================================ The introduction of ioprio hints ================================ What the kernel does provide, is a method to let I/O use one of the CDL DLDs defined in the device. Note that the kernel will simply forward the DLD index to the device, so the kernel currently does not know, nor does it need to know, how the DLDs are defined inside the device.
The way that the CDL DLD index is supplied to the kernel is by introducing a new 10 bit "ioprio hint" field within the existing 16 bit ioprio definition.
Currently, only 6 out of the 16 ioprio bits are in use, the remaining 10 bits are unused, and are currently explicitly disallowed to be set by the kernel.
For now, we only add ioprio hints representing CDL DLD index 1-7. Additional ioprio hints for other QoS features could be defined in the future.
A theoretical future work could be to make an I/O scheduler aware of these hints. E.g. for CDL, an I/O scheduler could make use of the duration limit in each descriptor, and take that information into account while scheduling commands. Right now, the ioprio hints will be ignored by the I/O schedulers.
============================== How to use CDL from user-space ============================== Since CDL is mutually exclusive with NCQ priority (see ncq_prio_enable and sas_ncq_prio_enable in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-block-device), CDL has to be explicitly enabled using: echo 1 > /sys/block/$bdev/device/cdl_enable
Since the ioprio hints are supplied through the existing I/O priority API, it should be simple for an application to make use of the ioprio hints.
It simply has to reuse one of the new macros defined in include/uapi/linux/ioprio.h: IOPRIO_PRIO_HINT() or IOPRIO_PRIO_VALUE_HINT(), and supply one of the new hints defined in include/uapi/linux/ioprio.h: IOPRIO_HINT_DEV_DURATION_LIMIT_[1-7], which indicates that the I/O should use the corresponding CDL DLD index 1-7.
By reusing the I/O priority API, the user can both define a DLD to use per AIO (io_uring sqe->ioprio or libaio iocb->aio_reqprio) or per-thread (ioprio_set()).
======= Testing ======= With the following fio patches: https://github.com/floatious/fio/commits/cdl
fio adds support for ioprio hints, such that CDL can be tested using e.g.: fio --ioengine=io_uring --cmdprio_percentage=10 --cmdprio_hint=DLD_index
A simple way to test is to use a DLD with a very short duration limit, and send large reads. Regardless of the CDL policy, in case of a CDL timeout, the I/O will result in a -ETIME error to user-space.
We also provide a CDL test suite located in the cdl-tools repo, see: https://github.com/westerndigitalcorporation/cdl-tools#testing-a-system-command-duration-limits-support
We have tested this patch series using: -real hardware -the following QEMU implementation: https://github.com/floatious/qemu/tree/cdl (NOTE: the QEMU implementation requires you to define the CDL policy at compile time, so you currently need to recompile QEMU when switching between policies.)
