<content type='text'>
In clang version 21.1 and later the -Wimplicit-enum-enum-cast warning
option has been introduced. This warning is enabled by default and can
be used to catch .queuecommand() implementations that return another
value than 0 or one of the SCSI_MLQUEUE_* constants. Hence this patch
that changes the return type of the .queuecommand() implementations from
'int' into 'enum scsi_qc_status'. No functionality has been changed.

<title>scsi: core: Introduce .queue_reserved_command()</title>

<content type='text'>
Reserved commands will be used by SCSI LLDs for submitting internal
commands. Since the SCSI host, target and device limits do not apply to
the reserved command use cases, bypass the SCSI host limit checks for
reserved commands. Introduce the .queue_reserved_command() callback for
reserved commands. Additionally, do not activate the SCSI error handler
if a reserved command fails such that reserved commands can be submitted
from inside the SCSI error handler.

[ bvanassche: modified patch title and patch description. Renamed
  .reserved_queuecommand() into .queue_reserved_command(). Changed
  the second argument of __blk_mq_end_request() from 0 into error
  code in the completion path if cmd-&gt;result != 0. Rewrote the
  scsi_queue_rq() changes. See also

<title>scsi: core: Support allocating a pseudo SCSI device</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d630fbf6fc8ce2fc95de7784de5499387b682dc1</id>
<content type='text'>
Allocate a pseudo SCSI device if 'nr_reserved_cmds' has been set. Pseudo
SCSI devices have the SCSI ID &lt;max_id&gt;:U64_MAX so they won't clash with
any devices the LLD might create. Pseudo SCSI devices are excluded from
scanning and will not show up in sysfs. Additionally, pseudo SCSI
devices are skipped by shost_for_each_device(). This prevents that the
SCSI error handler tries to submit a reset to a non-existent logical
unit.

Do not allocate a budget map for pseudo SCSI devices since the
cmd_per_lun limit does not apply to pseudo SCSI devices.

Do not perform queue depth ramp up / ramp down for pseudo SCSI devices.

Pseudo SCSI devices will be used to send internal commands to a storage
device.

[ bvanassche: edited patch description / renamed host_sdev into
  pseudo_sdev / unexported scsi_get_host_dev() / modified error path in
  scsi_get_pseudo_dev() / skip pseudo devices in __scsi_iterate_devices()
  and also when calling sdev_init(), sdev_configure() and sdev_destroy().

<content type='text'>
Quite some drivers are using management commands internally. These
commands typically use the same tag pool as regular SCSI commands. Tags
for these management commands are set aside before allocating the
block-mq tag bitmap for regular SCSI commands. The block layer already
supports this via the reserved tag mechanism. Add a new field
'nr_reserved_cmds' to the SCSI host template to instruct the block layer
to set aside a tag space for these management commands by using reserved
tags. Exclude reserved commands from .can_queue because .can_queue is
visible in sysfs.

[ bvanassche: modified patch title and patch description. Left out the
  following statements: "if (sht-&gt;nr_reserved_cmds)" and also
  "if (sdev-&gt;host-&gt;nr_reserved_cmds) flags |= BLK_MQ_REQ_RESERVED;". Moved
  nr_reserved_cmds declarations and statements close to the
  corresponding can_queue declarations and statements. See also

Instances are passed struct block_device *bdev argument; the only thing
it is used for (if it's used in the first place) is bdev-&gt;bd_disk.
Might as well pass that in the first place...

<content type='text'>
Use a plain BLK_MQ_F_* flag to select the round robin tag selection
instead of overlaying an enum with just two possible values into the
flags space.

Doing so allows adding a BLK_MQ_F_MAX sentinel for simplified overflow
checking in the messy debugfs helpers.

scsi_mid_low_api.rst refers to scsi_register() and scsi_unregister() but
these functions don't exist. They have been replaced by more meaningful
names.

Update one driver (megaraid_mbox.c) that uses "scsi_unregister" in a
warning message. Update scsi_mid_low_api.rst to eliminate references to
scsi_register() and scsi_unregister().
