Is a drivce a device or a drive ;-)

Please can you add ~/device/vscsi/$DEVID/* and
~/backend/vif/$DOMID/$DEVID/* to docs/misc/xenstore-paths.markdown.

If you were inclined to improve xen/include/public/io/vscsiif.h by using
some of the content from here then that would be awesome too.

This is a bit like pci I suppose?

That's rather unfortunate!

Are multiple <vhost> allowed/supported? e.g. could I (or better, libxl
by default) setup a device-per-host situation to alleviate this?

For pcifront/back we support bus reconfiguration (via
XenbusStateReconfigur{ing,ed}) which is how this works there. Does vscsi
not support anything like that?

Are there any such kernels which anyone cares about any more?

I shall keep that in mind and not comment on it on the expectation that
you want a chance to go through it before I get all pernickety.

"like to a ... like" I think you can drop the first "like".

Actually, I think the either is misplaced. "Can be a device path either
to a block device like ... or to a char device like ...

Hrm, that's now the third or in this either, which is making the wording
a bit unwieldy (i.e. my suggestion above no long really applies).
Perhaps a bulletted list is the way to go?

/dev/sgN would be unreliable too I think? As might block devices not
using the /dev/disk/by-* links you give in the example. You might be
best saying that only /dev/disk/by-* block device references are
reliable because all of the others might change over a reboot.

Typo "virtual"

All of HOST:CHANNEL:TARGET:LUN are numbers I think, are they
hex/dec/oct? Are there limits?

Is the comma in I<[,feature-host]> literally required, as in
    xl scsi-attach mydom 0:0:0:0 0:0:0:0 ,feature-host
?

I have a feeling it would be preferable in the first instance to either
just not provide the detach portion of this interface, or to require
that vdev is only a host and not a specific device (... unless the host
only has a single device, but maybe that's getting too far)

That's quite exciting ;-)

A flexarray will grow as neccessary so some sort of static best guest of
a starting point would be fine here I think (or a comment about 2 4 and
3)!

I suppose the num_vscsi_devs here is an artefact of the short coming you
mentioned before. The way PCI handles this is to create the "bus" (aka
vhost here) either when the first device is attached or in the higher
level code before it calls the individual device adds (i.e. this
function), or something (I must confess my memory is a bit fuzzy,
libxl__create_pci_backend might be a place to look). Having done that
then libxl_device_pci is just a single device.

I think you should look to do something similar here, so that each
libxl_device_vscsi is actually a single device. The alternative is some
sort of libxl_bus_vscsi thing, which would be unconventional compared
with everything else

(hotplug needs considering BTW i.e. in case you need to create an empty
bus at start of day to plug things into).

PCI only ever has a single bus (at least now), so how closely you map
onto that schema depends a bit on the intended vscsi host structure you
are aiming for.

(warning: the libxl PCI stuff is "interesting" in places, look to it for
inspiration perhaps but if you start to think "this is mad" it probably
is, if you find yourself here do say something!)

Can we shorten/wrap this line please.

Please can you refactor the body of this loop into a _from_xs_be type
function. Also this will all look a bit different if you go over to a
device-per libxl_device_vscsi model.

I'll be sure when I get to the IDL, but it looks like you might want to
introduce a type for holding host+chn+tgt+lun and just have pdev and
vdev of those as members of vscsiinfo.

I didn't confirm but I expect this will conform to the comment about the

PCI just omits state, presumably to sidestep this issue of which state
to report. I recommend you do the same unless you have a requirement.

Doesn't seem to be anything vscsi specific here (and it seems like a
generally useful thing. I expect at least thevif parsing would benefit
from deploying this too (in so much as all this wouldn't be better with
a proper parser using flex).

I guess we are single threaded here so this is ok.

I wonder if this might be useful to put in libxlu alongside the disk
parser? The question is whether anything else wants to parse xm style
vscsi strings, like libvirt perhaps. (arguably a bunch of these parsers
here have that property and belong in libxlu).

Urk. Normally we do this by splitting by files, e.g. into a linux
version and a nop version and compiling the appropriate one.

This seems like a candidate for libxlu too. We probably need to have a
think about how much of this stuff is done in libxl too -- e.g. for
disks we pass the pdev in as a string (path) and interpret it there.
That allows us to choose between alternative backend providers etc. Also
libxl is a slightly more palatable place to deal with Linux vs non-Linux
bits. I think that might be the right answer here too.

Would all be a lot simpler if a libxl_device_vscsi was a single device
and all the worrying about which bus was which was in libxl
