The current LLDD api has:
nvme-fc: contains api for transport to do LS requests (and aborts of
them). However, there is no interface for reception of LS's and sending
responses for them.
nvmet-fc: contains api for transport to do reception of LS's and sending
of responses for them. However, there is no interface for doing LS
requests.
Revise the api's so that both nvme-fc and nvmet-fc can send LS's, as well
as receiving LS's and sending their responses.
Change name of the rcv_ls_req struct to better reflect generic use as
a context to used to send an ls rsp. Specifically:
nvmefc_tgt_ls_req -> nvmefc_ls_rsp
nvmefc_tgt_ls_req.nvmet_fc_private -> nvmefc_ls_rsp.nvme_fc_private
Change nvmet_fc_rcv_ls_req() calling sequence to provide handle that
can be used by transport in later LS request sequences for an association.
nvme-fc nvmet_fc nvme_fcloop:
Revise to adapt to changed names in api header.
Change calling sequence to nvmet_fc_rcv_ls_req() for hosthandle.
Add stubs for new interfaces:
host/fc.c: nvme_fc_rcv_ls_req()
target/fc.c: nvmet_fc_invalidate_host()
lpfc:
Revise to adapt code to changed names in api header.
Change calling sequence to nvmet_fc_rcv_ls_req() for hosthandle.

Pull in block-5.7 fixes for 5.8. Mostly to resolve a conflict with
the blk-iocost changes, but we also need the base of the bdi
use-after-free as well as we build on top of it.
* block-5.7:
nvme: fix possible hang when ns scanning fails during error recovery
nvme-pci: fix "slimmer CQ head update"
bdi: add a ->dev_name field to struct backing_dev_info
bdi: use bdi_dev_name() to get device name
bdi: move bdi_dev_name out of line
vboxsf: don't use the source name in the bdi name
iocost: protect iocg->abs_vdebt with iocg->waitq.lock
block: remove the bd_openers checks in blk_drop_partitions
nvme: prevent double free in nvme_alloc_ns() error handling
null_blk: Cleanup zoned device initialization
null_blk: Fix zoned command handling
block: remove unused header
blk-iocost: Fix error on iocost_ioc_vrate_adj
bdev: Reduce time holding bd_mutex in sync in blkdev_close()

The use_delay mechanism was introduced by blk-iolatency to hold memory
allocators accountable for the reclaim and other shared IOs they cause. The
duration of the delay is dynamically balanced between iolatency increasing the
value on each target miss and it auto-decaying as time passes and threads get
delayed on it.
While this works well for iolatency, iocost's control model isn't compatible
with it. There is no repeated "violation" events which can be balanced against
auto-decaying. iocost instead knows how much a given cgroup is over budget and
wants to prevent that cgroup from issuing IOs while over budget. Until now,
iocost has been adding the cost of force-issued IOs. However, this doesn't
reflect the amount which is already over budget and is simply not enough to
counter the auto-decaying allowing anon-memory leaking low priority cgroup to
go over its alloted share of IOs.
As auto-decaying doesn't make much sense for iocost, this patch introduces a
different mode of operation for use_delay - when blkcg_set_delay() are used
insted of blkcg_add/use_delay(), the delay duration is not auto-decayed until it
is explicitly cleared with blkcg_clear_delay(). iocost is updated to keep the
delay duration synchronized to the budget overage amount.
With this change, iocost can effectively police cgroups which generate
significant amount of force-issued IOs.

Systemtap 4.2 is unable to correctly interpret the "u32 (*missed_ppm)[2]"
argument of the iocost_ioc_vrate_adj trace entry defined in
include/trace/events/iocost.h leading to the following error:
/tmp/stapAcz0G0/stap_c89c58b83cea1724e26395efa9ed4939_6321_aux_6.c:78:8:
error: expected ‘;’, ‘,’ or ‘)’ before ‘*’ token
, u32[]* __tracepoint_arg_missed_ppm
That argument type is indeed rather complex and hard to read. Looking
at block/blk-iocost.c. It is just a 2-entry u32 array. By simplifying
the argument to a simple "u32 *missed_ppm" and adjusting the trace
entry accordingly, the compilation error was gone.

Pull flexible-array member conversion from Gustavo Silva:
"The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array
member[1][2], introduced in C99:
struct foo {

struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof
operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original
implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible
array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of
code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously
applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances
may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member
convertions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of
issues.

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
