PATCH 1/3 scsi_scan: don't dump trace when scsi_prep_async_scan() is called twice

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <[email protected]>

The only user of scsi_prep_async_scan() is scsi_scan_host() and it handles the situation correctly. Move 'called twice' reporting to debug level as well.

The issue is observed on Hyper-V: on any device add/remove event storvsc driver calls scsi_scan_host() and in case previous scan is still running we get the message and stack dump on console.

PATCH 2/3 scsi: introduce short_inquiry flag for broken host adapters

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <[email protected]>

Some host adapters (e.g. Hyper-V storvsc) are known for not respecting the SPC-2/3/4 requirement for 'INQUIRY data (see table ...) shall contain at least 36 bytes'. As a result we get tons on 'scsi 0:7:1:1: scsi scan:
INQUIRY result too short (5), using 36' messages on console. This can be problematic for slow consoles. Introduce short_inquiry host template flag to avoid printing error messages for such adapters.

PATCH RESEND 3/3 storvsc: Don't set the SRB_FLAGS_QUEUE_ACTION_ENABLE flag

In reply to K. Y. Srinivasan

Don't set the SRB_FLAGS_QUEUE_ACTION_ENABLE flag since we are not specifying tags. Qlogic driver does not work correctly if the SRB_FLAGS_QUEUE_ACTION_ENABLE is set and no action tag is specified.

James,

I'm sorry for the annoyance but when I asked about these patches last time you said we don't have them reviewed. Is it OK now when we have
signed-off-by: from K. Y. or do we need to ask someone else?

Thanks,

We have tested these patches on various Hyper-V platforms.
