Bug Description

Release notes:
Usage of SCSI LUNs on DS8870 Storage server with μCode Bundles 87.51.xx.0 (LMC 7.7.51.xx) via NPIV enabled zfcp adaptors causes detection issues. LP #1567602 In that case do not use NPIV enabled zfcp adaptors.

Scenario:
Using Installer 432.
No DASD devices, just two FCP CHPIDs with two LUNs each (configured for NPIV), provided via parmfile.
I expect the installer to probe and detect the LUNs automatically once I enable the FCP CHPIDs.

Repeated five times, I got different results each time. Detected LUNs vary between 2 and 4. One time 3 LUNs appear on SCSI1 and one on SCSI2 which looks especially odd to me.

Subsequent steps to create partitions and file systems in the installer fail.

Following is one of the five cases with more details:
After enabling CHPID 192b:

Next, the installer warns that no disk drives were detected.

I checked this on a system (installer 445) with two NPIV enabled FCP devices that have 4 LUNS each. I only get the first of four LUNs per adaptor:

It looks like the LUN scan is being terminated.
Kernel parms with: scsi_mod.scsi_logging_level=4605 zfcp.dbflevel=6 zfcp.dbfsize=100

Re-testing with installer version 445 + udeb packages from 2016-04-07 s390-dasd 0.0.36ubuntu1, s390-zfcp 1.0.2ubuntu1, multipath-udeb 0.5.0+git1.656f8865-5ubuntu2, disk-detect 1.117ubuntu1

Some observations:
1. With one path only, the scanning/detection of all LUNs worked deterministically and correctly (including the final re-IPL after successful installation).
2. With two paths, but without the parmfile option 'disk-detect/multipath/enable=true', the LUNs were all detected, but once for every path. I did not want to continue installation that way.
3. With two paths and with the option 'disk-detect/multipath/enable=true', the multipath program was loaded and multipathing was set up correctly. ...
4. ... installation completed fine then...
5. .... but the final re-IPL after successful installation failed. Attaching last console messages of the IPL:
6. I could also see a difference in filesystem creation time for multipath and single path:

Meanwhile, with kernel 4.4.0-18 and installler version 447, the situation is different:
While the problem originally occured in installer, is happens now, when the target system is being IPLed.

The "switch" (to avoid the word "reason") is the kernel module scsi_dh_alua.
When scsi_dh_alua is loaded, the auto LUN scanning upon activating a zfcp device with NPIV LUNs causes that not all LUNs are detected. I assume, that not the kernel module itself is the problem, but t seems to trigger the problem.

A very easy way to reproduce this is as follows:
have a system installed with kernel 4.4.0-18 (almost GA). Have two NPIV enabled zfcp adaptors (on different PCHIDs) that can access the same (few) LUNs each. Then:

When a zfcp attached SCSI LUN is used for installation, (almost?) all scsi_dh modules are loaded upon activation of the zfcp device. This causes some LUNs not to be detected.
If I get acces to that system an blacklist the scsi_dh_alua module, the IPL works as expected ( i.e. all the LUNS are detected properly).

Hello, I just wanted to add to Thorsten's comment: we are also still working on analyzing this bug. To the best of my knowledge, the ALUA device-handler is not to blame here, like Thorsten also already suggested.

After looking at debug-data collected during reproductions, it seems like a SCSI-Command sent by the ALUA device-handler gets lost and thus causes a timeout after one Minute. This then...

Also w.r.t. multipath, disk-detect/multipath/enable is now enabled by default on Ubuntu on s390x, thus multipath installer codepath should be the one offered by the installer when the devices are scanned correctly. Moving this bug report to kernel package, as it seems to me this is a kernel issue and it's not the installer logic that is at fault.

The problem of LUNs not being properly discovered happened only on the following combination:
Storage Server DS8870 AND ( auto LUN scan when onlining an NPIV enabled device OR scripted parallelized addition of LUNs) AND recent kernels > 4.3 AND scsi_dh_alua is loaded.

The dmesg I get also shows that alua probing is done. So that sounds to be going through the exactly same sequence. We got NPIV enabled, too. Only here I also got dasd which we use to ipl from. Mainly speculating here but it feels a bit like maybe newer kernels might send out inquiry commands quicker or in parallel and something in the environment fails to cope with that and silently drops some requests...

I interpret that as having the same problem/sympton as I have. Correct?

I also tried that today with kernel 4.4.0-21, same problem. Then we got a uCode update on our machine, uCode now brand-new from 04/18. Problem persists.

And I involved a tester in U.S. to reproduce this on their machine. Waiting for results.

I saw these problems today also on another machine / switch / DS8870 combination:
DS8870 uCode was 5.7.51.1009, which is also the newer stream.
Obviously the older stream 5.7.41.xx didn't show these problems.

At least the normal installation with non NPIV enabled SCSI LUNs on our DS8870 worked.
If I use NPIV enabled LUNs AND add the kernel parameter zfcp.allow_lun_scan=0 AND add the LUNs manually, it fails, if I have more than one LUN.
If I have NPIV enabled LUNs on DS8870 storage with microcode bundle 87.51.xx.x and use the LUN detection via NPIV, the installation fails.

Yes, I did that during the last two days. It occurs independently of any xenial kernel.

@Canonical: Do you have the z13 connected via 16GB link via a switch to DS8870 - or via 8Gb link? - We could not reproduce this on 8Gb link.

16GB to the switch and from there 8GB to the DS8K.
The DS8K was only delivered with 8G DAs

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-xenial' to 'verification-done-xenial'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Verified successfully running an installation in an NPIV-multipath environment with installer 451.3 from xenial-proposed. Repeated three times.

SCSI devices are probed correctly and detected deterministically. Multipathing is detected and set up automatically.
