This commit introduces a vhost-user device for SCSI. This is based
on the existing vhost-scsi implementation, but done over vhost-user
instead. It also uses a chardev to connect to the backend. Unlike
vhost-scsi (today), VMs using vhost-user-scsi can be live migrated.
To use it, start Qemu with a command line equivalent to:
qemu-system-x86_64 \
-chardev socket,id=vus0,path=/tmp/vus.sock \
-device vhost-user-scsi-pci,chardev=vus0,bus=pci.0,addr=...
A separate commit presents a sample application linked with libiscsi to
provide a backend for vhost-user-scsi.

In order to introduce a new vhost-user-scsi host device type, it makes
sense to abstract part of vhost-scsi into a common parent class. This
commit does exactly that.

This adds the SAS1068 device, a SAS disk controller used in VMware that
is oldish but widely supported and has decent performance. Unlike
megasas, it presents itself as a SAS controller and not as a RAID
controller. The device corresponds to the mptsas kernel driver in
Linux.
A few small things in the device setup are based on Don Slutz's old
patch, but the device emulation was written from scratch based on Don's
SeaBIOS patch and on the FreeBSD and Linux drivers. It is 2400 lines
shorter than Don's patch (and roughly the same size as MegaSAS---also
because it doesn't support the similar SPI controller), implements SCSI
task management functions (with asynchronous cancellation), supports
big-endian hosts, has complete support for migration and follows the
QEMU coding standards much more closely.
To write the driver, I first split Don's patch in two parts, with
the configuration bits in one file and the rest in a separate file.
I first left mptconfig.c in place and rewrote the rest, then deleted
mptconfig.c as well. The configuration pages are still based mostly on
VirtualBox's, though not exactly the same. However, the implementation
is completely different. The contents of the pages themselves should
not be copyrightable.

This implements the core part of dataplane feature of virtio-scsi.
A few fields are added in VirtIOSCSICommon to maintain the dataplane
status. These fields are managed by a new source file:
virtio-scsi-dataplane.c.
Most code in this file will run on an iothread, unless otherwise
commented as in a global mutex context, such as those functions to
start, stop and setting the iothread property.
Upon start, we set up guest/host event notifiers, in a same way as
virtio-blk does. The handlers then pop request from vring and call into
virtio-scsi.c functions to process it. So we need to make sure make all
those called functions work with iothread, too.

The WWPN specified in configfs is passed to "-device vhost-scsi-pci".
The tgpt field of the SET_ENDPOINT ioctl is obsolete now, so it is not
available from the QEMU command-line. Instead, I hardcode it to zero.
Changes in Patch-v2:
- Add vhost_scsi_get_features() in order to determine feature bits
supports by host kernel (mst + nab)
- Re-enable usage of DEFINE_VIRTIO_COMMON_FEATURES, and allow
EVENT_IDX to be disabled by host in vhost_scsi_get_features()
- Drop unused hotplug bit in DEFINE_VHOST_SCSI_PROPERTIES
Changes in Patch-v1:
- Set event_idx=off by default (nab, thanks asias)
- Disable hotplug feature bit for v3.9 tcm_vhost kernel code, need to
re-enable in v3.10 (nab)
- Update to latest qemu.git/master HEAD
Changes in WIP-V3:
- Drop ioeventfd vhost_scsi_properties (asias, thanks stefanha)
- Add CONFIG_VHOST_SCSI (asias, thanks stefanha)
- Add hotplug feature bit
Changes in WIP-V2:
- Add backend guest masking support (nab)
- Bump ABI_VERSION to 1 (nab)
- Set up set_guest_notifiers (asias)
- Set up vs->dev.vq_index (asias)
- Drop vs->vs.vdev.{set,clear}_vhost_endpoint (asias)
- Drop VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_DRIVER check in vhost_scsi_set_status (asias)
Howto:
Use the latest seabios, at least commit b44a7be17b
git clone git://git.seabios.org/seabios.git
make
cp out/bios.bin /usr/share/qemu/bios.bin
qemu -device vhost-scsi-pci,wwpn=naa.6001405bd4e8476d,event_idx=off
