Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi
Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"This is the usual grab bag of driver updates (lpfc, hpsa,
megaraid_sas, cxgbi, be2iscsi) plus an assortment of minor updates.
There is also one new driver: the Cisco snic. The advansys driver has
been rewritten to get rid of the warning about converting it to the
DMA API, the tape statistics patch got in and finally, there's a
resuffle of SCSI header files to separate more cleanly initiator from
target mode (and better share the common definitions)"

That means +that st0 would have the same statistics as nst0. + +The directory contains the following statistics files: + +1. in_flight - The number of I/Os currently outstanding to this device. +2. io_ns - The amount of time spent waiting (in nanoseconds) for all I/O + to complete (including read and write). This includes tape movement + commands such as seeking between file or set marks and implicit tape + movement such as when rewind on close tape devices are used. +3. other_cnt - The number of I/Os issued to the tape drive other than read or + write commands. The time taken to complete these commands uses the + following calculation io_ms-read_ms-write_ms. +4. read_byte_cnt - The number of bytes read from the tape drive. +5. read_cnt - The number of read requests issued to the tape drive. +6. read_ns - The amount of time (in nanoseconds) spent waiting for read + requests to complete. +7. write_byte_cnt - The number of bytes written to the tape drive. +8. write_cnt - The number of write requests issued to the tape drive. +9. write_ns - The amount of time (in nanoseconds) spent waiting for write + requests to complete. +10. resid_cnt - The number of times during a read or write we found + the residual amount to be non-zero.

The tape statistics only count +I/O issued via the st module. + +When read the statistics may not be temporally consistent while I/O is in +progress. The individual values are read and written to atomically however +when reading them back via sysfs they may be in the process of being +updated when starting an I/O or when it is completed. + +The value shown in in_flight is incremented before any statstics are +updated and decremented when an I/O completes after updating statistics. +The value of in_flight is 0 when there are no I/Os outstanding that are +issued by the st driver.
