From
Subject[PATCH v2] Add virtio-scsi to the virtio spec
Date
Hi all,

here is the specification for a virtio-based SCSI host (controller, HBA,
you name it). The virtio SCSI host is the basis of an alternative
storage stack for KVM. This stack would overcome several limitations of
the current solution, virtio-blk:

1) scalability limitations: virtio-blk-over-PCI puts a strong upper
limit on the number of devices that can be added to a guest. Common
configurations have a limit of ~30 devices. While this can be worked
around by implementing a PCI-to-PCI bridge, or by using multifunction
virtio-blk devices, these solutions either have not been implemented
yet, or introduce management restrictions. On the other hand, the SCSI
architecture is well known for its scalability and virtio-scsi supports
advanced feature such as multiqueueing.

2) limited flexibility: virtio-blk does not support all possible storage
scenarios. For example, it only allows limited SCSI passthrough.
In principle, virtio-scsi provides anything that the underlying SCSI
target (be it emulated by QEMU, physical storage, iSCSI or the in-kernel
target) supports.

3) limited extensibility: over the time, many features have been added
to virtio-blk. Each such change requires modifications to the virtio
specification, to the guest drivers, and to the device model in the
host. The virtio-scsi spec has been written to follow SAM conventions,
and exposing new features to the guest will only require changes to the
host's SCSI target implementation.

This includes all the changes suggested by Hannes, Rusty and Ben in
reply to the previous version of the draft.

Here is the lyx version. The PDF version is at
http://people.redhat.com/pbonzini/virtio-spec.pdf and the text version
of the spec (interdiff from v1) is in a reply to this message.

+Appendix H: SCSI Host Device

+\begin_layout Standard

+\change_inserted 1531152142 1323090161
+The virtio SCSI host device groups together one or more virtual logical
+ units (such as disks), and allows communicating to them using the SCSI
+ protocol.
+ An instance of the device represents a SCSI host to which many targets
+ and LUNs are attached.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+
+\change_inserted 1531152142 1322571726
+The virtio SCSI device services two kinds of requests:
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Itemize
+
+\change_inserted 1531152142 1322571726
+command requests for a logical unit;
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Itemize
+
+\change_inserted 1531152142 1322571726
+task management functions related to a logical unit, target or command.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+
+\change_inserted 1531152142 1322571726
+The device is also able to send out notifications about added and removed
+ logical units.
+ Together, these capabilities provide a SCSI transport protocol that uses
+ virtqueues as the transfer medium.
+ In the transport protocol, the virtio driver acts as the initiator, while
+ the virtio SCSI host provides one or more targets that receive and process
+ the requests.

+The eventq is used by the device to report information on logical units

+ The driver should always leave a few buffers ready in the eventq.
+ In general, the device will not queue events to cope with an empty eventq,

+ However, when reporting events for many LUNs (e.g.
+ when a whole target disappears), the device can throttle events to avoid

+The preferred way to detect transport reset is always to use events, because
+ sense codes are only seen by the driver when it sends a SCSI command to
+ the logical unit or target.
+ However, in case events are dropped, the initiator will still be able to
+ synchronize with the actual state of the controller if the driver asks
+ the initiator to rescan of the SCSI bus.
+ During the rescan, the initiator will be able to observe the above sense
+ codes, and it will process them as if it the driver had received the equivalent
+ event.
