SAM-5 specification states maximum size of command identifier (tag),
defined by specific transports, should not be larger than 64 bits.
While most of supported transports use 32 bits or less, it was
reported that virtio-scsi uses 64 bits. Truncation to 32 bits in
bhyve code caused false tag conflict errors reported and possibly
other issues.
This changes CTL ABI and HA protocol, so CTL_HA_VERSION is bumped.
While we make HA protocol incompatible, increase default maximum
number of ports in CTL from 256 to 1024, matching number of LUNs.
There are many reports from people who need many iSCSI targets with
only one LUN each. Increased memory consumption should be less of
a problem these days.

It was possible to cause kernel panic by passing too large args_len
or non-NULL result_nvl.
Though since the /dev/cam/ctl device is accessible only by root and
used only by limited number of tools it was not a big problem.

I've found couple cases when CTL_FLAG_SENT_2OTHER_SC flags were not
cleared on commands return from active node or the send failure. It
created races when ctl_failover_lun() call before ctl_process_done()
could cause second ctl_done() and ctl_process_done() calls, causing
all sorts of problems.

Due to variable size of struct ctl_ha_msg_mode ctl_isc_announce_mode()
sent only first 4 bytes of modified mode page to the other HA side,
that caused its corruption there, noticeable only after failover.
I've found alike bug also in ctl_isc_announce_lun(), but there it was
sending slightly more than needed, that is a smaller problem.

With new ZFS prefetcher improvements it is no longer needed to fully
serialize reads to reach decent prediction hit rate. Softer variant
only creates small time window to reduce races instead of completely
blocking following reads while previous is running. It much less
hurts the performance in case of prediction miss.

- Move ctl_get_cmd_entry() calls from every OOA traversal to when
the requests first inserted, storing seridx in struct ctl_scsiio.
- Move some checks out of the loop in ctl_check_ooa().
- Replace checks for errors that can not happen with asserts.
- Transpose ctl_serialize_table, so that any OOA traversal accessed
only one row (cache line). Compact it from enum to uint8_t.
- Optimize static branch predictions in hottest places.
Due to O(n) nature on deep LUN queues this can be the hottest code
path in CTL, and additional 20% of IOPS I see in some 4KB I/O tests
are good to have in reserve. About 50% of CPU time here according
to the profiles is now spent in two memory accesses per traversed
request in OOA.

- Make frontends call unified CTL core method ctl_datamove_done()
to report move completion. It allows to reduce code duplication
in differerent backends by accounting DMA time in common code.
- Add to ctl_datamove_done() and be_move_done() callback samethr
argument, reporting whether the callback is called in the same
context as ctl_datamove(). It allows for some cases like iSCSI
write with immediate data or camsim frontend write save one context
switch, since we know that the context is sleepable.
- Remove data_move_done() methods from struct ctl_backend_driver,
unused since forever.

Switch OOA queue from TAILQ to LIST and change its direction, so that
we traverse it forward, not backward. There is only one place where
we really need other direction, and it is not critical.
Use STAILQ_REMOVE_HEAD() instead of STAILQ_REMOVE() in backends.
Replace few impossible conditions with assertions.

Introduce new CTL core KPI ctl_run(), preprocessing I/Os in the caller
context instead of scheduling another thread just for that. This call
may sleep, that is not acceptable for some frontends like the original
CAM/FC one, but iSCSI already has separate sleepable per-connection RX
threads, and another thread scheduling is mostly just a waste of time.
IOCTL frontend actually waits for the I/O completion in the caller
thread, so the use of another thread for this has even less sense.
With this change I can measure ~5% IOPS improvement on 4KB iSCSI I/Os
to ZFS.

SAM-3 specification introduced concept of Task Priority, that was renamed
to Command Priority in SAM-4, and supported by all modern SCSI transports.
It provides 15 levels of relative priorities: 1 - highest, 15 - lowest and
0 - default. SAT specification for SATA devices translates priorities 1-3
into NCQ high priority.
This change adds new "priority" field into empty spots of struct ccb_scsiio
and struct ccb_accept_tio of CAM and struct ctl_scsiio of CTL. Respective
support is added into iscsi(4), isp(4), mpr(4), mps(4) and ocs_fc(4) drivers
for both initiator and where applicable target roles. Minimal support was
added to CTL to receive the priority value from different frontends, pass it
between HA controllers and report in few places.
This patch does not add consumers of this functionality, so nothing should
really change yet, since the field is still set to 0 (default) on initiator
and not actively used on target. Those are to be implemented separately.
I've confirmed priority working on WD Red SATA disks connected via mpr(4)
and properly transferred to CTL target via iscsi(4), isp(4) and ocs_fc(4).
While there, added missing tag_action support to ocs_fc(4) initiator role.

It allows to report to initiator LU identifying information, preset via
"ident_info" and "text_ident_info" options.
Unfortunately it is impossible to implement SET IDENTIFYING INFORMATION,
since we have no persistent storage it requires, so the information is
read-only for initiator and has to be set out-of-band.

r357614 added CTLFLAG_NEEDGIANT to make it easier to find nodes that are
still not MPSAFE (or already are but aren’t properly marked).
Use it in preparation for a general review of all nodes.
This is non-functional change that adds annotations to SYSCTL_NODE and
SYSCTL_PROC nodes using one of the soon-to-be-required flags.
Mark all obvious cases as MPSAFE. All entries that haven't been marked

Since in most configurations CTL serves as network service, we found
that this change improves local system interactivity under heavy load.
Priority of main threads is set slightly higher then worker taskqueues
to make them quickly sort incoming requests not creating bottlenecks,
while plenty of worker taskqueues should be less sensitive to latency.

Replace long per-LUN queue of blocked commands, scanned on each command
completion and sometimes even twice, causing up to O(n^^2) processing cost,
by much shorter per-command blocked queues, scanned only when respective
command completes, and check only commands before the previous blocker,
reducing cost to O(n).
While there, unblock aborted commands to make them "complete" ASAP to be
removed from the OOA queue and so not waste time ordering other commands
against them. Aborted commands that were not sent to execution yet should
have no visible side effects, so this is safe and easy optimization now,
comparing to commands already in processing, which are a still pain.
Together those two optimizations should fix quite pathological case, when
due to backend slowness CTL accumulated many thousands of blocked requests,
partially aborted by initiator and so supposedly not even existing, but
still wasting CTL CPU time.

- Collapse original_sc and serializing_sc fields into one, since they
are never used simultanously, we have only one local I/O and one remote.
- Move remote_sglist and local_sglist fields into CTL_PRIV_BACKEND,
since they are used only on Originating SC in XFER mode, where requests
don't ever reach backends, so we can reuse backend's private storage.

ioctl frontend ports.
This revision introduces two changes to CTL:
- Changes the way options are passed to CTL_LUN_REQ and CTL_PORT_REQ ioctls.
Removes ctl_be_arg structure and associated logic and replaces it with
nv(3)-based logic for passing in and out arguments.
- Allows creating multiple ioctl frontend ports using either ctladm(8) or
ctld(8).
New frontend ports are represented by /dev/cam/ctl<pp>.<vp> nodes, eg /dev/cam/ctl5.3.
Those device nodes respond only to CTL_IO ioctl.
New command-line options for ctladm:
# creates new ioctl frontend port with using free pp and vp=0
ctladm port -c
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=10 and vp=0
ctladm port -c -O pp=10
# creates new ioctl frontend port with pp=11 and vp=12
ctladm port -c -O pp=11 -O vp=12
# removes port with number 4 (it's a "targ_port" number, not pp number)
ctladm port -r -p 4
New syntax for ctl.conf:
target ... {
port ioctl/<pp>
...
}
target ... {
port ioctl/<pp>/<vp>
...

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
The biggest change is that ctl_remove_initiator() now generates I_T NEXUS
LOSS event, cleaning part of LUs state related to the initiator.
