[Xen-devel] [RFC][PATCH] Enhance XenAPI for pvSCSI

[Masaki Kanno <kanno.masaki@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I would like to enhance XenAPI for pvSCSI. 
At the beginning, I updated only the document of XenAPI.  I'm going 
to implement XenAPI of pvSCSI along the document.  Could you comment?

The following classes and RPCs are added by the enhancement. 
 Classes:
  - VSCSI class
     This is a class for virtual SCSI devices.
  - PSCSI class
     This is a class for physical SCSI devices.

 RPCs:
  - VSCSI class
   -- get_all
       A list of all VSCSIs known to the system is gotten.
   -- get_uuid
       An UUID of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_VM
       A VM ref of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_PSCSI
       A PSCSI ref of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_virtual_host
       A virtual host number of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_virtual_channel
       A virtual channel number of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_virtual_target
       A virtual target number of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_virtual_lun
       A virtual logical unit number of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_virtual_HCTL
       A virtual HCTL (string of "<host>:<channel>:<target>:<lun>") 
       of the VSCSI is gotten.
   -- create
       A new VSCSI instance is created.
   -- destroy
       The VSCSI instance is destroyed.
   -- get_by_uuid
       A VSCSI ref of the UUID is gotten.
   -- get_record
       A VSCSI record of the VSCSI is gotten.

  - PSCSI class
   -- get_all
       A list of all PSCSIs known to the system is gotten.
   -- get_uuid
       An UUID of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_host
       A host ref of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_physical_host
       A physical host number of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_physical_channel
       A physical channel number of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_physical_target
       A physical target number of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_physical_lun
       A physical logical unit number of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_physical_HCTL
       A physical HCTL (string of "<host>:<channel>:<target>:<lun>") 
       of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_vendor_name
       A vendor name of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_model
       A model name of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_type_id
       An ID of device types of the PSCSI is gotten. (If disk, the ID 
       is 0.  If tape, the ID is 1.)
   -- get_type
       A device type string of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_sg_name
       A SCSI generic (sg) device name of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_revision
       A revision string of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_scsi_id
       A SCSI ID string of the PSCSI is gotten. The string is a result 
       of 'scsi_id -gu -s'.
   -- get_scsi_level
       A SCSI level of the PSCSI is gotten.
   -- get_by_uuid
       A PSCSI ref of the UUID is gotten.
   -- get_record
       A PSCSI record of the PSCSI is gotten.

  - VM class
   -- get_VSCSIs
       VSCSI refs of the VM are gotten.

  - host class
   -- get_PSCSIs
       PSCSI refs of the host are gotten.
