[PATCH v6 00/27] Native SCSI Multipath support

NATIVE SCSI MULTIPATH:

This series introduces native SCSI multipath support. It is intended as
an alternative to dm-mpath.

This support aims to provide a multipath-enabled SCSI block device/
gendisk.

For a SCSI device to support native multipath, either of the following
conditions must be satisfied:
a. unique ID in VPD page 83 and ALUA support and scsi_multipath modparam
   enabled
b. unique ID in VPD page 83 and scsi_multipath_always modparam enabled

This series relies on reading sdev->access_state to get path information.
This path information would be provided by ALUA. ALUA support which does
not rely on device handlers has already been discussed at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-scsi/[email protected]/
and support will be added in the next phase.

New classes of devices are added:
- scsi_mpath_device
- scsi_mpath_disk

These are required since a multipath scsi_device has no common scsi host.
An example of the sysfs files and directories for these new classes is as
follows:

The scsi_device and scsi_disk classes otherwise remain unmodified.
However, the per-path block device is hidden in /dev/. Furthermore,
multipathed block devices have a new naming scheme, sdX:Y, where
X is the scsi multipath device index and Y is the path index.

No multipath sg support is added. We still have a per-path sg device.
Since the SCSI block device is multipath enabled, we can access
multipathed scsi_ioctl() through that block device.

For failover, we take the approach of cloning bio's and re-submitting them
in full (for failover errors).

LIBMULTIPATH:

This series introduces also libmultipath. It is essentially a refactoring
of NVME multipath support, so we can have a common library to also support
native SCSI multipath.

Much of the code is taken directly from the NVMe multipath code. However,
NVMe specifics are removed. A template structure is provided so the driver
-may provide callbacks for driver specifics, like ANA support for NVMe.

Important new structures introduced include:

- mpath_head
These contain much of the multipath-specific functionality from
nvme_ns_head, including a pointer to the gendisk structure and
a path SRCU-based array.

- mpath_device
This is the per-path structure, and contains much the same
multipath-specific functionality in nvme_ns

libmultipath provides functionality for path management, path selection,
data path, and failover handling.

Differences to v5:
- deal with issues sashiko found in libmultipath:
 - include wait_bit.h
 - don't store error in mpath_head->disk
 - use check_mul_overflow() in mpath_can_remove_head()
 - use -ENOTTY in mpath_bdev_ioctl()
- deal with issues sashiko found in scsi mpath support:
 - check 0 returned from scsi_vpd_lun_id()
 - call flush_work() in scsi_mpath_device_iopolicy_store()
 - clear SCMD_MPATH_IO_STATS for !bio in scsi_mpath_start_request()
 - add checks for calling scsi_mpath_{start,end}_request()
 - tweak sd_mpath_dev_show()

Differences to v4:
- deal with issues sashiko/codex found in libmultipath:
 - SPDX spelling mistake
 - make driver set mpath_device->mpath_head
 - change delayed support to use unsigned int for delay
 - check for partition in bdev ioctl
 - drop zoned support for now
- deal with issues sashiko/codex found in scsi mpath support:
 - use ida destory in 2x places
 - set vpd_id earlier
 - iter through all possible mpath heads when searching
 - remove scsi mpath device later in __scsi_remove_device
 - call scsi_mpath_clear_path() outside state mutex
 - add revalidate paths caller to sd revalidate
 - fix sdev put in failover handling
 - use READ_ONCE() fo reading sdev state
 - fix scsi mpath start/end request
 - take scsi mpath head ref in scsi_mpath_remove_head_work()
 - fix sd_mpath_probe error path
 - fix sd_mpath_dev_show() for deleted multipath disk
- Add RB tag from Hannes (thanks!)
