From 14216561e164671ce147458653b1fea06a4ada1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Bottomley Date: Wed, 25 Jul 2012 23:55:55 +0400 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] Fix 'Device not ready' issue on mpt2sas This is a particularly nasty SCSI ATA Translation Layer (SATL) problem. SAT-2 says (section 8.12.2) if the device is in the stopped state as the result of processing a START STOP UNIT command (see 9.11), then the SATL shall terminate the TEST UNIT READY command with CHECK CONDITION status with the sense key set to NOT READY and the additional sense code of LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY, INITIALIZING COMMAND REQUIRED; mpt2sas internal SATL seems to implement this. The result is very confusing standby behaviour (using hdparm -y). If you suspend a drive and then send another command, usually it wakes up. However, if the next command is a TEST UNIT READY, the SATL sees that the drive is suspended and proceeds to follow the SATL rules for this, returning NOT READY to all subsequent commands. This means that the ordering of TEST UNIT READY is crucial: if you send TUR and then a command, you get a NOT READY to both back. If you send a command and then a TUR, you get GOOD status because the preceeding command woke the drive. This bit us badly because commit 85ef06d1d252f6a2e73b678591ab71caad4667bb Author: Tejun Heo Date: Fri Jul 1 16:17:47 2011 +0200 block: flush MEDIA_CHANGE from drivers on close(2) Changed our ordering on TEST UNIT READY commands meaning that SATA drives connected to an mpt2sas now suspend and refuse to wake (because the mpt2sas SATL sees the suspend *before* the drives get awoken by the next ATA command) resulting in lots of failed commands. The standard is completely nuts forcing this inconsistent behaviour, but we have to work around it. The fix for this is twofold: 1. Set the allow_restart flag so we wake the drive when we see it has been suspended 2. Return all TEST UNIT READY status directly to the mid layer without any further error handling which prevents us causing error handling which may offline the device just because of a media check TUR.
