Niklas Cassel e20e81a24a ata: libata-core: do not issue non-internal commands once EH is pending
While the ATA specification states that a device should return command
aborted for all commands queued after the device has entered error state,
since ATA only keeps the sense data for the latest command (in non-NCQ
case), we really don't want to send block layer commands to the device
after it has entered error state. (Only ATA EH commands should be sent,
to read the sense data etc.)

Currently, scsi_queue_rq() will check if scsi_host_in_recovery()
(state is SHOST_RECOVERY), and if so, it will _not_ issue a command via:
scsi_dispatch_cmd() -> host->hostt->queuecommand() (ata_scsi_queuecmd())
-> __ata_scsi_queuecmd() -> ata_scsi_translate() -> ata_qc_issue()

Before commit e494f6a728 ("[SCSI] improved eh timeout handler"),
when receiving a TFES error IRQ, the call chain looked like this:
ahci_error_intr() -> ata_port_abort() -> ata_do_link_abort() ->
ata_qc_complete() -> ata_qc_schedule_eh() -> blk_abort_request() ->
blk_rq_timed_out() -> q->rq_timed_out_fn() (scsi_times_out()) ->
scsi_eh_scmd_add() -> scsi_host_set_state(shost, SHOST_RECOVERY)

Which meant that as soon as an error IRQ was serviced, SHOST_RECOVERY
would be set.

However, after commit e494f6a728 ("[SCSI] improved eh timeout handler"),
scsi_times_out() will instead call scsi_abort_command() which will queue
delayed work, and the worker function scmd_eh_abort_handler() will call
scsi_eh_scmd_add(), which calls scsi_host_set_state(shost, SHOST_RECOVERY).

So now, after the TFES error IRQ has been serviced, we need to wait for
the SCSI workqueue to run its work before SHOST_RECOVERY gets set.

It is worth noting that, even before commit e494f6a728 ("[SCSI] improved
eh timeout handler"), we could receive an error IRQ from the time when
scsi_queue_rq() checks scsi_host_in_recovery(), to the time when
ata_scsi_queuecmd() is actually called.

In order to handle both the delayed setting of SHOST_RECOVERY and the
window where we can receive an error IRQ, add a check against
ATA_PFLAG_EH_PENDING (which gets set when servicing the error IRQ),
inside ata_scsi_queuecmd() itself, while holding the ap->lock.
(Since the ap->lock is held while servicing IRQs.)

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
