Relying on it greatly simplifies the detection of a missing Sequence and consequently simplifies error recovery, but today is optional in FCP-x (while is mandated by IP over FC and is going to be mandated by FC-SATA). Additional items for FCP-4 discussion follows (all due to doubts submitted to me...): - Bidirectional Commands: I think we need to count bytes for both data-in and data-out. Which of these two counters should be put in the FC4VALUE field of the REC ELS? - Data Overlay: the FCP-3 definition of data overlay says "see SAM-3", but SAM-3 says nothing on data overlay. - Data Overlay: In which way could it be possible detecting a missing Sequence when data overlay is used and continuously increasing SEQ_CNT is not used? (it seems to us that there is no way, but others may have a different opinion...). - Data Overlay: how can the FC4VALUE counters can be accurate when data overlap (i.e., how to avoid to count twice the overlapping data)? The members of the working group came to no real concensus/resolution per the questions and would like to open up the discussion to the T10/T11 commitees, specifically making Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT a requirement for FCP-4. Regarding Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT: We have discussed requiring Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT during each previous FCP-x standard development efforts and folk opted to not specify it as a requirement since some vendors did not yet fully support it. We may have now moved past that issue. Regarding Bidirectional Commands: FCP-3 states: "Sequence level error recovery as described in 12.4 shall not be used for bidirectional SCSI commands." So the question regarding the FC4VALUE field is moot until if/when we want to support FCP-x error detection and recovery for bidirectional commands. Regarding Data Overlay: The reference to SAM-3 is not intended to refer the reader to SAM-3 for data overlay, but since it is outside the sentence this is what it means. The reference will be removed since it provides value in this context (i.e., the intent was to refer the reader to SAM-3 for application client buffer offset but that is already covered). The other two questions are vendor implementation specifc in my mind, others may share if they wish...

My comments in red. I please ask you to discuss in the FCP-4 WG the possibility to mandate continuous increasing SEQ_CNT in FCP-4. Relying on it greatly simplifies the detection of a missing Sequence and consequently simplifies error recovery, but today is optional in FCP-x (while is mandated by IP over FC and is going to be mandated by FC-SATA). While handy enough, continuously increasing sequence count is not a requirement except for streamed sequences. See FC-PLDA for the original view of that. Note that some implementations choose to zero the sequence count in each sequence because so many exchanges may be in process at the same time. With the offset available in each frame, the sequence count continuously increasing across sequences is not necessary to recover all critical information. Additional items for FCP-4 discussion follows (all due to doubts submitted to me...): - Bidirectional Commands: I think we need to count bytes for both data-in and data-out. Which of these two counters should be put in the FC4VALUE field of the REC ELS? Wouldn't that be dependant on the type of command? FCP read or write types. The device knows the current command type. See FC-LS, clause 4.2.55.4. The E_STAT value indicates which end holds initiative and whether the exchange is complete. On bidirectional commands, I would expect the FC4VALUE to reflect the phase that is active when the REC arrives. Note that REC is supplemented by lots of other information in determining this value, so it is the responder who must make up its mind and make sure that information is consistent. - Data Overlay: the FCP-3 definition of data overlay says "see SAM-3", but SAM-3 says nothing on data overlay. I would say that EMDP should be disabled cause with the end to end data protection I do not think you can even enable this option because the DIFs would get corrupted would they not? Realistically EMDP=1 behavior is rarely implemented. However, when it is implemented, there is an understanding that the target and initiator know how to handle it. DIFs would only be corrupted if the target or initiator did NOT know how to handle EMDP. If DIFs were used with EMDP, I would expect that full buffer accumulation and post-processing would be required to accumulate the proper check values, making it even less likely that EMDP would be supported, but not creating grounds to forbid it from the architecture. - Data Overlay: In which way could it be possible detecting a missing Sequence when data overlay is used and continuously increasing SEQ_CNT is not used? (it seems to us that there is no way, but others may have a different opinion...). I agree, I think there is no possible way, at least real-time as the data is being streamed in. At FCP response time the overrun/underrun and residual length would cause a re-execution of the command. Continuously increasing sequence count does not help recover from failures in proper transmission during data overlay transfers. If you are using data overlay, the receiving device must keep a mask indicating which data has been transferred and which has not in order to maintain the data counts correctly. Note that data overlay may even transfer the same data twice, but it must be counted only once. A missing block in the middle is treated as defined in FCP-3 clause 9.4.1, below: " If error conditions occur that prevent the transfer of data in the middle of a data transfer, the FCP_SNS_INFO shall indicate that only data from the offset of zero up to the first byte of missing data has been transferred " - Data Overlay: how can the FC4VALUE counters can be accurate when data overlap (i.e., how to avoid to count twice the overlapping data)? I would think that the ability to resend data blocks already sent was discussed in the specification as a bad thing. If not then I believe the only way to catch a misbehaving target would be to track the data blocks already received and keep track of the holes left behind. The device would also have to track the resent data and not include the resent data as data received to satisfy a read command. The resending of data blocks may be a good thing if the first copy was sent with incorrect data. However, you are completely correct when you say that the initiator must track the data blocks received, counting each one only once even if it was received multiple times. Note that there is no requirement for the initiator to guarantee data integrity with such tools, but it would be foolish to allow EMDP=1 behavior without such checks. The members of the working group came to no real concensus/resolution per the questions and would like to open up the discussion to the T10/T11 commitees, specifically making Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT a requirement for FCP-4. Making this a requirement would be a much need improvement, and one that has been needed for a while. I disagree. See above and below. Regarding Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT: We have discussed requiring Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT during each previous FCP-x standard development efforts and folk opted to not specify it as a requirement since some vendors did not yet fully support it. We may have now moved past that issue. Sorry, while that may be true of individual drives, it would be a problem for devices with large numbers of exchanges outstanding, each requiring context information for transfers in both directions. There is no particular improvement in checking because of this, since data offsets are carried in every header. Regarding Bidirectional Commands: FCP-3 states: "Sequence level error recovery as described in 12.4 shall not be used for bidirectional SCSI commands." So the question regarding the FC4VALUE field is moot until if/when we want to support FCP-x error detection and recovery for bidirectional commands. I believe we can allow recovery for bidirectional SCSI commands using the additional information in the E_STAT field in the REC and the information in the SRR. It would take a bit of work, but it should not be too demanding an exercise since bidirectional commands are required to complete one transfer before starting the other, simplifying the requirements significantly. SRR may need another bit or two added. The only reason we didn't do it in the earlier revisions was that bidirectional SCSI commands were added late in one of the FCP-x documents and nobody has bothered to revisit the retry processes with such commands in mind. Regarding Data Overlay: The reference to SAM-3 is not intended to refer the reader to SAM-3 for data overlay, but since it is outside the sentence this is what it means. The reference will be removed since it provides value in this context (i.e., the intent was to refer the reader to SAM-3 for application client buffer offset but that is already covered).

Relying on it greatly simplifies the detection of a missing Sequence and consequently simplifies error recovery, but today is optional in FCP-x (while is mandated by IP over FC and is going to be mandated by FC-SATA). Additional items for FCP-4 discussion follows (all due to doubts submitted to me...): - Bidirectional Commands: I think we need to count bytes for both data-in and data-out. Which of these two counters should be put in the FC4VALUE field of the REC ELS? Wouldn???t that be dependant on the type of command? FCP read or write types. The device knows the current command type. - Data Overlay: the FCP-3 definition of data overlay says "see SAM-3", but SAM-3 says nothing on data overlay. I would say that EMDP should be disabled cause with the end to end data protection I do not think you can even enable this option because the DIFs would get corrupted would they not? - Data Overlay: In which way could it be possible detecting a missing Sequence when data overlay is used and continuously increasing SEQ_CNT is not used? (it seems to us that there is no way, but others may have a different opinion...). I agree, I think there is no possible way, at least real-time as the data is being streamed in. At FCP response time the overrun/underrun and residual length would cause a re-execution of the command. - Data Overlay: how can the FC4VALUE counters can be accurate when data overlap (i.e., how to avoid to count twice the overlapping data)? I would think that the ability to resend data blocks already sent was discussed in the specification as a bad thing. If not then I believe the only way to catch a misbehaving target would be to track the data blocks already received and keep track of the holes left behind. The device would also have to track the resent data and not include the resent data as data received to satisfy a read command. The members of the working group came to no real concensus/resolution per the questions and would like to open up the discussion to the T10/T11 commitees, specifically making Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT a requirement for FCP-4. Making this a requirement would be a much need improvement, and one that has been needed for a while. Regarding Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT: We have discussed requiring Continuously Increasing SEQ_CNT during each previous FCP-x standard development efforts and folk opted to not specify it as a requirement since some vendors did not yet fully support it. We may have now moved past that issue. Regarding Bidirectional Commands: FCP-3 states: "Sequence level error recovery as described in 12.4 shall not be used for bidirectional SCSI commands." So the question regarding the FC4VALUE field is moot until if/when we want to support FCP-x error detection and recovery for bidirectional commands. Regarding Data Overlay: The reference to SAM-3 is not intended to refer the reader to SAM-3 for data overlay, but since it is outside the sentence this is what it means. The reference will be removed since it provides value in this context (i.e., the intent was to refer the reader to SAM-3 for application client buffer offset but that is already covered). The other two questions are vendor implementation specifc in my mind, others may share if they wish...

I have been working on your questions and have generated another revision of the proposal. I really appreciate your time and efforts. I ended up splitting out an overloaded function from the previous proposal and I think that cleaned up a lot of your issues.

I concentrated mainly on the ERASE(6) command since my devices only support this one. I think my main area of concern is how these new bits will be handled by devices that do not check reserved fields in CDBs and also do not support these new bits. Normally, I would not be all that concerned with this, except for the location you chose for the bits. You placed the bits in the most significant 2 bits of byte 1, a location traditionally reserved since it used to hold the LUN field way back in SCSI-2 days. In many of our devices, we zero out these bits to avoid problems with systems that put the LUN into the CDB. That means these devices will not see the new bits and treat the ERASE command as if they were not set. We can certainly change this behavior in future devices, but how is the application client to know if the bits are supported, checked, or ignored?

I understand that RESERVE/RELEASE has been obsolesced in SPC-3. In fact the Annex is there to help people with a minimum implementation of PR IN/OUT to give equivalent functionality of the old RESERVE/RELEASE. And the old RESERVE/RELEASE had no mechanism for *reporting* reservations (well other than returning an error ;), which is what PR IN gives you. That is why I believe that there should be a "not" in there since no such equivalent functionality in RESERVE/RELEASE. -Rich --- Original --- From: Dan Meyer To: Rich Ramos , t10 at t10.org Date: 5/13/06 12:24 AM -0700 Subject: RE: SPC-4: PR Annex B question * From the T10 Reflector (t10 at t10.org), posted by: * "Dan Meyer" * Rich, No, the wording is correct.

I edited it to the current text during incorporation and apparently forgot the negative context. I have made a note to add the 'not' in SPC-4 r05.

By word of mouth, however, it's starting to look like the meeting may not be very well attended. I have had several regular participants tell me they do not intend to attend, and others have said they don't want to incur the travel expense unless some of the key attendees are there to help resolve the 90 or so LB comments that remain. So, please RSVP and let me know if you plan on attending. I will use the RSVP replies to determine whether it is worth holding the meeting or not. I understand there are a handful of you who already have your plane tickets booked, but if it's not going to be a productive meeting, I have trouble justifying Intel's expense to host the meeting. I really would like to use this June meeting to come as close as possible to resolving the last of the LB comments so we can ask for a vote to forward to INCITS in July and move forward with SAT-2. Please RSVP to the reflector, or to my e-mail (on the T10 website).

In section 8.2.3.4.1 PL_PM3:Connected state description, it states: ???If: a) the protocol for the connection is SSP, the port is an SSP target port, and the BUS INACTIVITY TIME LIMIT field in the Disconnect-Reconnect mode page (see 10.2.7.1) is set to a non-zero value; or b) the protocol for the connection is STP, the port is an STP initiator port, and the STP BUS INACTIVITY TIME LIMIT field is not set to zero in the SMP REPORT GENERAL response for the destination STP target port, then, upon entry into this state, this state shall: a) create a Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer; b) initialize the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer as specified in table 122 (see 8.2.3.1); and c) start the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer. If a Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer has been created and: a) the connection is SSP or SMP and this state receives a Tx Frame message; or b) the connection is STP and the phy is not both transmitting and receiving SATA_SYNC, then this state shall: a) stop the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer, if it is running; and b) initialize the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer as specified in table 122 (see 8.2.3.1).??? My interpretation is the timer to be created when the connection is established. When the transport requests a frame to be transmitted, the timer is stopped. There is no case that it is again started. Thus no timeout will occur. This is WRONG. Proposed solution: Add a third step to the actions to be taken after receiving a Tx Frame message so that the second ???if??? quoted above reads as follows: ???If a Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer has been created and: a) the connection is SSP or SMP and this state receives a Tx Frame message; or b) the connection is STP and the phy is not both transmitting and receiving SATA_SYNC, then this state shall: a) stop the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer, if it is running; and b) initialize the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer as specified in table 122 (see 8.2.3.1). c) start the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer.???

So starting it after it was initialized should be right. This timer is to make sure this device doesn???t tie up the bus, thus it monitors only the transmit activity. The other end of the bus should be monitoring itself. As to the timer running while a frame is being sent, you are right. This change would start the time upon the receipt of a frame request. It doesn???t account for the time delays due to credit not being available, the transmission time of the frame itself or the delay in receiving back an ACK or NAK. In SAS 1.1, the timer was stopped when a frame transmit request was received |from the PL_OC state machine, and reset and restarted when an ACK or NAK was received. If an ACK or NAK was not received, the ACK/NAK timeout would catch it. This, to me, is a better solution. This area was removed in the update caused by the 05-305 document and appears for the first time in SAS-2r00. I think this discussion will be helpful to other. Can I send it to the reflector?

Shouldn't the timer be set to zero before it is started? Also, shouldn't there be a wait until the "bus is inactive again" before the timer is started? Per the change you propose, it seems like the timer will be started again while a frame is being received or sent. This shouldn't count as an inactive bus.

In section 8.2.3.4.1 PL_PM3:Connected state description, it states: ???If: a) the protocol for the connection is SSP, the port is an SSP target port, and the BUS INACTIVITY TIME LIMIT field in the Disconnect-Reconnect mode page (see 10.2.7.1) is set to a non-zero value; or b) the protocol for the connection is STP, the port is an STP initiator port, and the STP BUS INACTIVITY TIME LIMIT field is not set to zero in the SMP REPORT GENERAL response for the destination STP target port, then, upon entry into this state, this state shall: a) create a Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer; b) initialize the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer as specified in table 122 (see 8.2.3.1); and c) start the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer. If a Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer has been created and: a) the connection is SSP or SMP and this state receives a Tx Frame message; or b) the connection is STP and the phy is not both transmitting and receiving SATA_SYNC, then this state shall: a) stop the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer, if it is running; and b) initialize the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer as specified in table 122 (see 8.2.3.1).??? My interpretation is the timer to be created when the connection is established. When the transport requests a frame to be transmitted, the timer is stopped. There is no case that it is again started. Thus no timeout will occur. This is WRONG. Proposed solution: Add a third step to the actions to be taken after receiving a Tx Frame message so that the second ???if??? quoted above reads as follows: ???If a Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer has been created and: a) the connection is SSP or SMP and this state receives a Tx Frame message; or b) the connection is STP and the phy is not both transmitting and receiving SATA_SYNC, then this state shall: a) stop the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer, if it is running; and b) initialize the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer as specified in table 122 (see 8.2.3.1). c) start the Bus Inactivity Time Limit timer.???
