<id>urn:sha1:2cbf7fe2d5d32a4747c1f8ad163e886dccad930c</id>
<content type='text'>
The I2O layer deals with a technology that to say the least didn't catch on
in the market.

The only relevant products are some of the AMI MegaRAID - which supported I2O
and its native mode (The native mode is faster and runs on Linux), an
obscure crypto ethernet card that's now so many years out of date nobody
would use it, the old DPT controllers, which speak their own dialect and
have their own driver - and ermm.. thats about it.

We also know the code isn't in good shape as recently a patch was proposed
and queried as buggy, which in turn showed the existing code was broken
already by prior "clean up" and nobody had noticed that either.

It's coding style robot code nothing more. Like some forgotten corridor
cleaned relentlessly by a lost Roomba but where no user has trodden in years.

Move it to staging and then to /dev/null.

The headers remain as they are shared with dpt_i2o.

<title>scsi: drop reason argument from -&gt;change_queue_depth</title>

<content type='text'>
Drop the now unused reason argument from the -&gt;change_queue_depth method.
Also add a return value to scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and rename it to
scsi_change_queue_depth now that it can be used as the default
-&gt;change_queue_depth implementation.

<title>scsi: don't set tagging state from scsi_adjust_queue_depth</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c8b09f6fb67df7fc1b51ced1037fa9b677428149</id>
<content type='text'>
Remove the tagged argument from scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and just let it
handle the queue depth.  For most drivers those two are fairly separate,
given that most modern drivers don't care about the SCSI "tagged" status
of a command at all, and many old drivers allow queuing of multiple
untagged commands in the driver.

Instead we start out with the -&gt;simple_tags flag set before calling
-&gt;slave_configure, which is how all drivers actually looking at
-&gt;simple_tags except for one worke anyway.  The one other case looks
broken, but I've kept the behavior as-is for now.

Except for that we only change -&gt;simple_tags from the -&gt;change_queue_type,
and when rejecting a tag message in a single driver, so keeping this
churn out of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is a clear win.

Now that the usage of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is more obvious we can
also remove all the trivial instances in -&gt;slave_alloc or -&gt;slave_configure
that just set it to the cmd_per_lun default.

<id>urn:sha1:2ecb204d07ac8debe3893c362415919bc78bebd6</id>
<content type='text'>
Allow a driver to ask for block layer tags by setting .use_blk_tags in the
host template, in which case it will always see a valid value in
request-&gt;tag, similar to the behavior when using blk-mq.  This means even
SCSI "untagged" commands will now have a tag, which is especially useful
when using a host-wide tag map.

<content type='text'>
When using a virtual SCSI disk in a VMWare VM if blkdev_issue_zeroout is used
data can be improperly zeroed out using the mptfusion driver. This patch
disables write_same for this driver and the vmware subsystem_vendor which
ensures that manual zeroing out is used instead.

<title>scsi: use 'depends' instead of 'select' for SCSI_FC_ATTRS</title>

There are other kconfig symbols which use SCSI_FC_ATTRS.
In order to maintain sanity and prevent kconfig warnings, change
all of these from using 'select' to using 'depends on' so that
proper symbol dependencies will be honored and circular depends
problems will be avoided.
This fixes kconfig warnings and build errors:
