Add a mechanism where residual overflow/underflow can be reportad back to
the application
We probably need somethinf for bidir residuals at some stage too
We dotn need two interfaces that only diuffer in whether they return a pointer or NULL vs an semiidentical interface that returns 0 or <0
All uses of _async() for scsi tasks should be replaced with the equivalent _task() function instead
These functions are also async functions for SCSI commands but they return
a task structure or NULL.
This task structure can be used in task management functions to abort the task or a whole task set.
between them makes compilers complain about aliasing.
Merge the two and use one single structure bot both iscsi and scsi sync
commands so that gcc stops crying about strict-aliasing
are in flight at the moment.
Aside from commands, we also consider the "has not yet connected completely" as being an i/o.
When this command returns 0 it means we are connected ant the iscsi connection is idle, with no commands in flight.
KVM needs a function to detect idleness like this for its block layer io_flush
function.
"random" ISID randomly.
Dont assume that users will never create multiple contexts
concurrently, in which case the previous getpid()^time(NULL)
would create duplicates.
LBA is uint32_t for read/write10
Also store the lba/numblocks arguments in the task structure for read10/write10
This makes it much easier to implement a fully async "read lots/write lots"
applications.
A Portal URL is of the form
iscsi://[<username>[%<password>]@]<host>[:<port>]
and is used by command such as iscsi-ls during the discovery login phase.
During discovery we do not yet know the target iqn name, nor the lun of
any devices.
There is no point in setting the username if there is no password
and vice versa.
Also, if we only set username but not passwd this would lead to a segv.
so that the password will not be showing up in log where the application
logs the "filename/iscsi url" or in ps aux output.
LIBISCSI_CHAP_USERNAME and LIBISCSI_CHAP_PASSWORD environment variables are
available to set these outside of the url.
If hte username/password is ALSO set in the URL, the settings in the URL
will override the environment variables.
Update the "send scsi command" fucntion to honour
"FirstBurstLength" so that we only send this many bytes as unsolicited data.
The wait for a train of R2T from the target to clock out additional
busrts of data until the full task data has been sent to the Target.
We should now honour, and handle the case of
ImmediateData=No
InitialR2T=No
correctly for targets that are limited on receiveing data too fast.
