FC-Tape provides additional link level error recovery, and is
highly recommended for tape devices. It will only be turned on for
a given target if the target supports it.
Without this setting, we default to whatever FC-Tape setting is in
NVRAM on the card.
This can be overridden by setting the following loader tunable, for
example for isp0:
hint.isp.0.nofctape=1
sys/conf/options:
Add a new kernel config option, ISP_FCTAPE_OFF, that
defaults the FC-Tape configuration to off.
sys/dev/isp/isp_pci.c:
If ISP_FCTAPE_OFF is defined, turn off FC-Tape. Otherwise,
turn it on if the card supports it.
share/man/man4/isp.4:
Add a description of FC-Tape to the isp(4) man page.
Add descriptions of the fctape and nofctape options, as well as the
ISP_FCTAPE_OFF kernel configuration option.
Add the ispfw module and kernel drivers to the suggested
configurations at the top of the man page so that users are less
likely to leave it out. The driver works well with the included
firmware, but may not work at all with whatever firmware the user
has flashed on their card.

Usually IOCBs should be put on queue for asynchronous processing and should
not require additional DMA memory. But there are some cases like aborts and
resets that for external reasons has to be synchronous. Give those cases
separate 2*64 byte DMA area to decouple them from other DMA scratch area
users, using it for asynchronous requests.
I am not sure why this was split long ago, but I see no reason for it.
At this point this unification just slightly reduces memory usage, but
as next step I plan to reuse shared handle space for other IOCB types.
- Make scan aborted by event restart immediately and infinitely.
- Improve handling of some loop events from firmware.
- Remove loop down timer, adding its functionality to scanner thread.
- Some more unification and simplification.
Hacks to enable target mode there complicated code, while didn't really
work. And for outdated hardware fixing it is not really interesting.
Initiator mode tested with Qlogic 1080 adapter is still working fine.
FC port database code already notifies CAM about all devices. Additional
full scan is just a waste of time, that by definition won't find anything
that is not present in port database.
It (mostly) allows to enable/disable initiator mode in run time.
Target mode control is blocked here to force coordination with CTL.
While there, add separate tunables/sysctls for virtual channels.
command register. The lazy BAR allocation code in FreeBSD sometimes
disables this bit when it detects a range conflict, and will re-enable
it on demand when a driver allocates the BAR. Thus, the bit is no longer
a reliable indication of capability, and should not be checked. This
results in the elimination of a lot of code from drivers, and also gives
the opportunity to simplify a lot of drivers to use a helper API to set
the busmaster enable bit.
This changes fixes some recent reports of disk controllers and their
associated drives/enclosures disappearing during boot.

MISC CHANGES
Add a new async event- ISP_TARGET_NOTIFY_ACK, that will guarantee
eventual delivery of a NOTIFY ACK. This is tons better than just
ignoring the return from isp_notify_ack and hoping for the best.
Clean up the lower level lun enable code to be a bit more sensible.
Fix a botch in isp_endcmd which was messing up the sense data.
Fix notify ack for SRR to use a sensible error code in the case
of a reject.
Clean up and make clear what kind of firmware we've loaded and
what capabilities it has.
-----------
FULL (252 byte) SENSE DATA
In CTIOs for the ISP, there's only a limimted amount of space
to load SENSE DATA for associated CHECK CONDITIONS (24 or 26
bytes). This makes it difficult to send full SENSE DATA that can
be up to 252 bytes.
Implement MODE 2 responses which have us build the FCP Response
in system memory which the ISP will put onto the wire directly.
On the initiator side, the same problem occurs in that a command
status response only has a limited amount of space for SENSE DATA.
This data is supplemented by status continuation responses that
the ISP pushes onto the response queue after the status response.
We now pull them all together so that full sense data can be
returned to the periph driver.
This is supported on 23XX, 24XX and 25XX cards.
This is also preparation for doing >16 byte CDBs.
-----------
FC TAPE
Implement full FC-TAPE on both initiator and target mode side. This
capability is driven by firmware loaded, board type, board NVRAM
settings, or hint configuration options to enable or disable. This
is supported for 23XX, 24XX and 25XX cards.
On the initiator side, we pretty much just have to generate a command
reference number for each command we send out. This is FCP-4 compliant
in that we do this per ITL nexus to generate the allowed 1 thru 255
CRN.
In order to support the target side of FC-TAPE, we now pay attention
to more of the PRLI word 3 parameters which will tell us whether
an initiator wants confirmed responses. While we're at it, we'll
pay attention to the initiator view too and report it.
On sending back CTIOs, we will notice whether the initiator wants
confirmed responses and we'll set up flags to do so.
If a response or data frame is lost the initiator sends us an SRR
(Sequence Retransmit Request) ELS which shows up as an SRR notify
and all outstanding CTIOs are nuked with SRR Received status. The
SRR notify contains the offset that the initiator wants us to restart
the data transfer from or to retransmit the response frame.
If the ISP driver still has the CCB around for which the data segment
or response applies, it will retransmit.
However, we typically don't know about a lost data frame until we
send the FCP Response and the initiator totes up counters for data
moved and notices missing segments. In this case we've already
completed the data CCBs already and sent themn back up to the periph
driver. Because there's no really clean mechanism yet in CAM to
handle this, a hack has been put into place to complete the CTIO
CCB with the CAM_MESSAGE_RECV status which will have a MODIFY DATA
POINTER extended message in it. The internal ISP target groks this
and ctl(8) will be modified to deal with this as well.
At any rate, the data is retransmitted and an an FCP response is
sent. The whole point here is to successfully complete a command
so that you don't have to depend on ULP (SCSI) to have to recover,
which in the case of tape is not really possible (hence the name
FC-TAPE).

we find out after EXEC_FIRMWARE what is actually supported.

we are supporting simultaneous target/initiator mode. Clean

and crosschecks against firmware documentation. We now check and report
FC firmware attributes and at least are now prepared for the upper 48 bits
of f/w attributes (which are probably for the 8100 or later cards). This
involed changing how inbits and outbits are calculated for varios commands,
hopefully clearer and cleaner. This also caused me to clean up the actual
mailbox register usage. Finally, we are now unconditionally using a CRN
for initiator mode.
A longstanding issue with the 2400/2500 is that they do *not* support
a "Prefer PTP followed by loop", which explains why enabling that
caused the f/w to crash.
A slightly more invasive change is to let the firmware load entirely
drive whether multi_id support is enabled or not.

is actually broken, or needs a BIOS upgrade for 64 bit loads, but this uncovered
a couple of misplaced opcode definitions and some missing continual mbox command
cases, so might as well update them here.
We also revive loop down freezes. We also externaliz within isp
isp_prt_endcmd so something outside the core module can print
something about a command completing. Also some work in progress to
assist in handling timed out commands better.

32 bit handles. The RIO (reduced interrupt operation) and fast posting
for the parallel SCSI cards were all 16 bit handles. Furthermore,
target mode parallel SCSI only can have 16 bit handles.
Use part of a supplied patch to switch over to using 32 bit handles.
Be a bit more conservative here and only do this for parallel SCSI
for the 12160 (Ultra3) cards. There were a lot of marginal Ultra2
cards, and, frankly, few are findable now for testing.
Fix the target handle routine to only do 16 bit handles for parallel
SCSI cards. This is okay because the upper sixteen bits of the new
32 bit handles is a sequence number to help protect against duplicate
completions. This would be very unlikely to happen with parallel
SCSI target mode, and wasn't present before, so we're no worse off
than we used to be.
While we're at it, finally split the async mailbox completion handlers
into FC and parallel SCSI functions. This makes it much cleaner and
easier to figure out what is or isn't a legal async mailbox completion
code for different card classes.
