We can request task management IOCTL command(MPI2_FUNCTION_SCSI_TASK_MGMT)
to /dev/mpt3ctl.  If the given task_type is either abort task or query
task, it may need a field named "Initiator Port Transfer Tag to Manage"
in the IU.

Current code does not support to check target IPTT tag from the
tm_request.  This patch introduces to check TaskMID given from the
userspace as a target tag.  We have a rule of relationship between
(struct request *req->tag) and smid in mpt3sas_base.c:

3318 u16
3319 mpt3sas_base_get_smid_scsiio(struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc, u8 cb_idx,
3320         struct scsi_cmnd *scmd)
3321 {
3322         struct scsiio_tracker *request = scsi_cmd_priv(scmd);
3323         unsigned int tag = scmd->request->tag;
3324         u16 smid;
3325
3326         smid = tag + 1;

So if we want to abort a request tagged #X, then we can pass (X + 1) to
this IOCTL handler.  Otherwise, user space just can pass 0 TaskMID to
abort the first outstanding smid which is legacy behaviour.

I think this is fundamentally wrong.
ABORT_TASK is used to abort a single task, which of course has to be
known beforehand. If you don't know the task, what exactly do you hope
to achieve here? Aborting random I/O?
Or, even worse, aborting I/O the driver uses internally and corrupt the
internal workflow of the driver?

We should simply disallow any ABORT TASK from userspace if the TaskMID
is zero. And I would even argue to disabllow ABORT TASK from userspace
completely, as the smid is never relayed to userland, and as such the
user cannot know which task should be aborted.
Hannes,

This interface was added long time back in mpt2sas driver and I don't
have exact reason of adding this interface at that time.
But I know that this interface is still used by BRCM test team & few
customers only for some functionality and regression testing.

Thanks,
Sreekanth
Cheers,

Hannes
