Subject: [PATCH] scsi: libsas: Fix disk not being scanned in after being removed

As of commit d8649fc1c5e4 ("scsi: libsas: Do discovery on empty PHY to
update PHY info"), do discovery will send a new SMP_DISCOVER and update
phy->phy_change_count. We found that if the disk is reconnected and phy
change_count changes at this time, the disk scanning process will not be
triggered.

So update the PHY info with the last query results.

It would be nice to be able to call sas_set_ex_phy() here (instead of
sas_get_phy_attached_dev()), but I assume that you can't do that as the
disc_resp memory is not available.

If we were to manually set the PHY info here instead, how would that look?

Thanks,
John

Yes, I think it is indeed better to use sas_set_ex_phy, as you said,
disc_resp memory is not available. Maybe we can use sas_get_phy_discover
instead of sas_get_phy_attached_dev so we can use disc_resp?

Can we directly set phy->negotiated_linkrate = SAS_PHY_DISABLED here?
For an empty PHY the other variables means nothing, so why bother get
and update them?

The value of the negotiated link rate has two possible values ​​in the
current processing branch: SAS_LINK_RATE_UNKNOWN and SAS_PHY_DISABLED,
and both come from disc_resp. If we do not use disc_resp, but set a
fixed value SAS_PHY_DISABLED for it, it may not be appropriate.

But we know that the phy is disabled, right? It's our phy, isn't it?

Yes, just like the previous submission, if we disable phy ourselves
through the sysfs node, we can configure the negotiation rate to
SAS_PHY_DISABLED by setting phy->phy->enable to 0. It might be better to
use sas_set_ex_phy() as you described before, it will refresh other phy
information synchronously, such as sas_address, device_type,
target_protocols, etc. If we only update the negotiation rate and
maintain the old information, is it because it is special? Is it better
to update phy information uniformly?

Xingui

By the way, I have updated a version and call sas_set_ex_phy() here,
please check it again.

Then maybe the first patch is a better approach. Let me check it again.
Sorry for the delay.

It's odd to call sas_set_ex_phy() if we got res == -ECOMM. I mean, in
this this case disc_resp is not filled in as the command did not
execute, right? I know that is what the current code does, but it is
strange.

So can we just call this here when we know that the SMP command was
executed properly?

Thanks,
John

The current code actually re-send the SMP command and update the PHY
status only when the the SMP command is responded correctly.

Xinggui, can you please fix this and send v3?

The current location cannot directly update the phy information. The
previous phy information will be used later, and the previous sas
address will be compared with the currently queried sas address. At
present, v2 is more suitable after many days of testing.

I don't understand this. Where is the previous SAS address compared to
the current SAS address?

This doesn't work properly. the previous sas address will be compared
with the currently queried sas address and the previous phy information
will also be used when calling sas_unregister_devs_sas_addr() after the
sas_rediscover_dev() function calls sas_get_phy_attached_dev().
Therefore, it is more appropriate to update the phy information after
the device is unregistered. as follows:
static int sas_rediscover_dev(struct domain_device *dev, int phy_id,
bool last, int sibling)
{
...
res = sas_get_phy_attached_dev(dev, phy_id, sas_addr, &type);
switch (res) {
case SMP_RESP_NO_PHY:
phy->phy_state = PHY_NOT_PRESENT;
sas_unregister_devs_sas_addr(dev, phy_id, last);
return res;
case SMP_RESP_PHY_VACANT:
phy->phy_state = PHY_VACANT;
sas_unregister_devs_sas_addr(dev, phy_id, last);
return res;
case SMP_RESP_FUNC_ACC:
break;
case -ECOMM:
break;
default:
return res;
}

if ((SAS_ADDR(sas_addr) == 0) || (res == -ECOMM)) {
phy->phy_state = PHY_EMPTY;
sas_unregister_devs_sas_addr(dev, phy_id, last);
/*
* Even though the PHY is empty, for convenience we
discover
* the PHY to update the PHY info, like negotiated
linkrate.
*/
sas_ex_phy_discover(dev, phy_id);
return res;
} else if (SAS_ADDR(sas_addr) ==
SAS_ADDR(phy->attached_sas_addr) && // <=== Compare the previous sas
address with the current sas address
dev_type_flutter(type, phy->attached_dev_type)) {
struct domain_device *ata_dev = sas_ex_to_ata(dev, phy_id);
char *action = "";

sas_ex_phy_discover(dev, phy_id);

if (ata_dev && phy->attached_dev_type == SAS_SATA_PENDING)
action = ", needs recovery";
pr_debug("ex %016llx phy%02d broadcast flutter%s\n",
SAS_ADDR(dev->sas_addr), phy_id, action);
