[PATCH for-5.4 0/2] scsi: qla2xxx: Fix P2P mode

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Greg and Sasha,

QLogic FC adapters don’t work in P2P mode on the latest stable 5.4 (at least
QLE2692, and QLE2694, QLE2742 are affected).

We’ve tested and bisected from 5.4 up to 5.4.112 and figured out the
following:


1. From 5.4 to 5.4.5 inclusively direct mode doesn’t work at all.

   Stable commit a82545b62e07 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Change discovery state before
   PLOGI") fixes the issue in 5.4.6

2. From 5.4.6 to 5.4.68 inclusively direct mode works but FC link cannot be
   recovered after issue_lip and all presented LUNs are lost

   Not working issue_lip is an outcome of a82545b62e07 applied to stable
   without the upstream commit 65e920093805 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix device connect
   issues in P2P configuration.").

3. From 5.4.69 up till now (5.4.112) direct mode doesn’t work again

   The issue was introduced by stable commit 74924e407bf7 ("scsi: qla2xxx:
   Retry PLOGI on FC-NVMe PRLI failure").

   Upstream commit 84ed362ac40c ("scsi: qla2xxx: Dual FCP-NVMe target port
   support") fixes the issue.

So, in order to fix both P2P issues we need to apply upstream commits
65e920093805 and 84ed362ac40c.

However, stable commits 0b84591fdd5e ("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix stuck login session
using prli_pend_timer") introduced in 5.4.19 and 74924e407bf7 ("scsi: qla2xxx:
Retry PLOGI on FC-NVMe PRLI failure") in 5.4.69 were applied in the wrong
order, upstream and chronological-wise with regards to required upstream fixes,
and cherry-picking of the fixes is not possible without a merge conflict.

The series provides merge conflict resolution and resolves both P2P discovery
and issue_lip issue. It has been tested over Linux stable 5.4.112 and
Ubuntu 20.04 kernel 5.4.0-71.79 (that's based off stable 5.4.101).

Please apply at your earliest convenience to 5.4 stable.

thanks,
Anastasia
