Pull more SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "The vfs has long had a write lifetime hint mechanism that gives the
  expected longevity on storage of the data being written. f2fs was the
  original consumer of this and used the hint for flash data placement
  (mostly to avoid write amplification by placing objects with similar
  lifetimes in the same erase block).

  More recently the SCSI based UFS (Universal Flash Storage) drivers
  have wanted to take advantage of this as well, for the same reasons as
  f2fs, necessitating plumbing the write hints through the block layer
  and then adding it to the SCSI core.

  The vfs write_hints already taken plumbs this as far as block and this
  completes the SCSI core enabling based on a recently agreed reuse of
  the old write command group number. The additions to the scsi_debug
  driver are for emulating this property so we can run tests on it in
  the absence of an actual UFS device"

Commit c92a6b5d6335 ("scsi: core: Query VPD size before getting full
page") removed the logic which checks whether a VPD page is present on
the supported pages list before asking for the page itself. That was
done because SPC helpfully states "The Supported VPD Pages VPD page
list may or may not include all the VPD pages that are able to be
returned by the device server". Testing had revealed a few devices
that supported some of the 0xBn pages but didn't actually list them in
page 0.

Julian Sikorski bisected a problem with his drive resetting during
discovery to the commit above. As it turns out, this particular drive
firmware will crash if we attempt to fetch page 0xB9.

Various approaches were attempted to work around this. In the end,
reinstating the logic that consults VPD page 0 before fetching any
other page was the path of least resistance. A firmware update for the
devices which originally compelled us to remove the check has since
been released.

<title>scsi: sd: usb_storage: uas: Access media prior to querying device properties</title>

<id>urn:sha1:321da3dc1f3c92a12e3c5da934090d2992a8814c</id>
<content type='text'>
It has been observed that some USB/UAS devices return generic properties
hardcoded in firmware for mode pages for a period of time after a device
has been discovered. The reported properties are either garbage or they do
not accurately reflect the characteristics of the physical storage device
attached in the case of a bridge.

Prior to commit 1e029397d12f ("scsi: sd: Reorganize DIF/DIX code to
avoid calling revalidate twice") we would call revalidate several
times during device discovery. As a result, incorrect values would
eventually get replaced with ones accurately describing the attached
storage. When we did away with the redundant revalidate pass, several
cases were reported where devices reported nonsensical values or would
end up in write-protected state.

An initial attempt at addressing this issue involved introducing a
delayed second revalidate invocation. However, this approach still
left some devices reporting incorrect characteristics.

Tasos Sahanidis debugged the problem further and identified that
introducing a READ operation prior to MODE SENSE fixed the problem and that
it wasn't a timing issue. Issuing a READ appears to cause the devices to
update their state to reflect the actual properties of the storage
media. Device properties like vendor, model, and storage capacity appear to
be correctly reported from the get-go. It is unclear why these devices
defer populating the remaining characteristics.

Match the behavior of a well known commercial operating system and
trigger a READ operation prior to querying device characteristics to
force the device to populate the mode pages.

The additional READ is triggered by a flag set in the USB storage and
UAS drivers. We avoid issuing the READ for other transport classes
since some storage devices identify Linux through our particular
discovery command sequence.

For passthrough we don't retry any error which we get a check condition
for. This results in a lot of callers driving their own retries for all
UAs, specific UAs, NOT_READY, specific sense values or any type of failure.

This adds the core code to allow passthrough users to specify what errors
they want the SCSI midlayer to retry for them. We can then convert users to
drop a lot of their sense parsing and retry handling.

<title>scsi: sd: Fix system start for ATA devices</title>

It is not always possible to keep a device in the runtime suspended state
when a system level suspend/resume cycle is executed. E.g. for ATA devices
connected to AHCI adapters, system resume resets the ATA ports, which
causes connected devices to spin up. In such case, a runtime suspended disk
will incorrectly be seen with a suspended runtime state because the device
is not resumed by sd_resume_system(). The power state seen by the user is
different than the actual device physical power state.

Fix this issue by introducing the struct scsi_device flag
force_runtime_start_on_system_start. When set, this flag causes
sd_resume_system() to request a runtime resume operation for runtime
suspended devices. This results in the user seeing the device runtime_state
as active after a system resume, thus correctly reflecting the device
physical power state.

Commit 3cc2ffe5c16d ("scsi: sd: Differentiate system and runtime start/stop
management") changed the single bit manage_start_stop flag into 2 boolean
fields of the SCSI device structure. Commit 24eca2dce0f8 ("scsi: sd:
Introduce manage_shutdown device flag") introduced the manage_shutdown
boolean field for the same structure. Together, these 2 commits increase
the size of struct scsi_device by 8 bytes by using booleans instead of
defining the manage_xxx fields as single bit flags, similarly to other
flags of this structure.

Avoid this unnecessary structure size increase and be consistent with the
definition of other flags by reverting the definitions of the manage_xxx
fields as single bit flags.

Commit aa3998dbeb3a ("ata: libata-scsi: Disable scsi device
manage_system_start_stop") change setting the manage_system_start_stop
flag to false for libata managed disks to enable libata internal
management of disk suspend/resume. However, a side effect of this change
is that on system shutdown, disks are no longer being stopped (set to
standby mode with the heads unloaded). While this is not a critical
issue, this unclean shutdown is not recommended and shows up with
increased smart counters (e.g. the unexpected power loss counter
"Unexpect_Power_Loss_Ct").

Instead of defining a shutdown driver method for all ATA adapter
drivers (not all of them define that operation), this patch resolves
this issue by further refining the sd driver start/stop control of disks
using the new flag manage_shutdown. If this new flag is set to true by
a low level driver, the function sd_shutdown() will issue a
START STOP UNIT command with the start argument set to 0 when a disk
needs to be powered off (suspended) on system power off, that is, when
system_state is equal to SYSTEM_POWER_OFF.

Similarly to the other manage_xxx flags, the new manage_shutdown flag is
exposed through sysfs as a read-write device attribute.

To avoid any confusion between manage_shutdown and
manage_system_start_stop, the comments describing these flags in
include/scsi/scsi.h are also improved.
