Disable "cache line streaming" for aic7890/91 Rev A chips. I
have never seen these chips fail using this feature, but
some of Adaptec's regression tests have.
Explicitly set "cache line streaming" to on for aic7896/97
chips. This was happening before, but this documents the
fact that these chips will not function correctly without
CACHETHEEN set.
aic7xxx.h:
Add new bug types.
Fix a typo in a comment.
aic7xxx.reg:
Add a definition for the SHVALID bit in SSTAT3 for Ultra2/3
chips. This bit inicates whether the bottom most (current)
element in the S/G fifo has exhausted its data count.
aic7xxx.seq:
Be more careful in how we turn off the secondary DMA channel.
Being less careful may hang the PCI bus arbitor that negotiates
between the two DMA engines.
Remove an unecessary and incorrect flag set operation in
the overrun case.
On Ultra2/3 controllers, clear the dma FIFO before starting
to handle an overrun. We don't want any residual bytes from
the beginning of the overrun to cause the code that shuts
down the DMA engine from hanging because the FIFO is not
(and never will be) empty.
If the data fifo is empty by the time we notice that a
read transaction has completed, there is no need to
hit the flush bit on aic7890/91 hardware that will not
perform an auto-flush. Skip some cycles by short circuiting
the manual flush code in this case.
When transitioning out of data phase, make sure that we
have the next S/G element loaded for the following
reconnect if there is more work to do. The code
would do this in most cases before, but there was
a small window where the current S/G element could
be exhausted before our fetch of the next S/G element
completed. Since the S/G fetch is already initiated
at this point, it makes sense to just wait for the
segment to arrive instead of incuring even more latency
by canceling the fetch and initiating it later.
Fast path the end of data phase handling for the last
S/G segment. In the general case, we might have
worked ahead a bit by stuffing the S/G FIFO with
additional segments. If we stop before using them
all, we need to fixup our location in the S/G stream.
Since we can't work past the last S/G segment, no
fixups are ever required if we stop somewhere in
that final segment.
Fix a little buglet in the target mode dma bug handler.
We were employing the workaround in all cases instead
of only for the chips that require it.
Fix the cause of SCB timeouts and possible "lost data"
during read operations on the aic7890. When sending
a data on any Ultra2/3 controller, the final segment
must be marked as such so the FIFO will be flushed and
cleaned up correctly when the transfer is ended. We
failed to do this for the CDB transfer and so, if
the target immediately transfered from command to data
phase without an intervening disconnection, the first
segment transferred would be any residual bytes from
the cdb transfer. The Ultra160 controllers for some
reason were not affected by this problem.
Many Thanks to Tor Egge for bringing the aic7890 problem
to my attention, providing analysis, as well as a mechanism
to reproduce the problem.
Correct the BUILD_TCL macro. It was placing the target id
in the wrong bits. This was only an issue for adapters that
do not perform SCB paging (aha-3940AUW for instance).
Don't bother inlining ahc_index_busy_tcl. It is never
used in a performance critical path and is a bit chunky.
Correct ahc_index_busy_tcl to deal with "busy target tables"
embedded in the latter half of 64byte SCBs.
Don't initialize the busy target table to its empty state
until after we have finished extracting configuration
information from chip SRAM. In the common case of using
16 bytes of chip SRAM to do untagged target lookups,
we were trashing the last 8 targets configuration data.
(actually only target 8 because of the bug in the
BUILD_TCL macro).
Cram the "bus reset delivered" message back under bootverbose.
Fix the cleanup of the SCB busy target table when aborting
commands. If the lun is wildcarded, we must loop through
all possible luns.
aic7xxx.h:
Only bother supporting 64 luns right now. It doesn't seem
like either this driver or any peripherals will be doing
information unit transfers (where the lun number is a
32 bit integer) any time soon.
aic7xxx.seq:
Fix support for the aic7895. We must flush the data
FIFO if performing a manual transfer that is not
a multiple of 8 bytes. We were doing this quite
regularly for embedded cdbs.
Manaually flush the fifo on earlier adapters when
dealing with embedded cdbs too. We were stuffing
the FIFO with 16 bytes instead, but triggering
the flush is more efficient and allows us to
remove two instructions from the "copy_to_fifo"
routine.
other systems.
o Normalize copyright text.
o Clean up probe code function interfaces by passing around a single
structure of common arguments instead of passing "too many" args
in each function call.
o Add support for the AAA-131 as a SCSI adapter.
o Add support for the AHA-4944 courtesy of "Matthew N. Dodd" <winter@jurai.net
o Correct manual termination support for PCI cards. The bit definitions
for manual termination control in the SEEPROM were incorrect.
o Add support for extracting NVRAM information from SCB 2 for BIOSen
that use this mechanism to pass this data to OS drivers.
o Properly set the STPWLEVEL bit in PCI config space based on the
setting in an SEEPROM.
o Go back to useing 32byte SCBs for all controllers. The current
firmware allows us to embed 12byte cdbs on all controllers in
a 32byte SCB, and larger cdbs are rarely used, so it is a
better use of this space to offer more SCBs (32).
o Add support for U160 transfers.
o Add an idle loop executed during data transfers that prefetches
S/G segments on controllers that have a secondary DMA engine
(aic789X).
o Improve the performance of reselections by avoiding an extra
one byte DMA in the case of an SCB lookup miss for the reselecting
target. We now keep a 16byte "untagged target" array on the card
for dealing with untagged reselections. If the controller has
external SCB ram and can support 64byte SCBs, then we use an
"untagged target/lun" array to maximize concurrency. Without
external SCB ram, the controller is limited to one untagged
transaction per target, auto-request sense operations excluded.
o Correct the setup of the STPWEN bit in SXFRCTL1. This control
line is tri-stated until set to one, so set it to one and then
set it to the desired value.
o Add tagged queuing support to our target role implementation.
o Handle the common cases of the ignore wide residue message
in firmware.
o Add preliminary support for 39bit addressing.
o Add support for assembling on big-endian machines. Big-endian
support is not complete in the driver.
o Correctly remove SCBs in the waiting for selection queue when
freezing a device queue.
o Now that we understand more about the autoflush bug on the
aic7890, only use the workaround on devices that need it.
o Add a workaround for the "aic7890 hangs the system when you
attempt to pause it" problem. We can now pause the aic7890
safely regardless of what instruction it is executing.
for optimizing the unpause operation no-longer exist, and this is much
safer.
When restarting the sequencer, reconstitute the free SCB list on the card.
This deals with a single instruction gap between marking the SCB as free
and actually getting it onto the free list.
Reduce the number of transfer negotiations that occur. In the past, we
renegotiated after every reported check condition status. This ensures
that we catch devices that have unexpectidly reset. In this situation,
the target will always report the check condition before performing a
data-phase. The new behavior is to renegotiate for any check-condition where
the residual matches the orginal data-length of the command (including
0 length transffers). This avoids renegotiations during things like
variable tape block reads, where the check condition is reported only
to indicate the residual of the read.
Revamp the parity error detection logic. We now properly report and
handle injected parity errors in all phases. The old code used to hang
on message-in parity errors.
Correct the reporting of selection timeout errors to the XPT. When
a selection timeout occurs, only the currently selecting command
is flagged with SELTO status instead of aborting all currently active
commands to that target.
Fix flipped arguments in ahc_match_scb and in some of the callers of this
routine. I wish that gcc allowed you to request warnings for enums passed
as ints.
Make ahc_find_msg generically handle all message types.
Work around the target mode data-in wideodd bug in all non-U2 chips.
We can now do sync-wide target mode transfers in target mode across the
hole product line.
Use lastphase exclusively for handling timeouts. The current phase
doesn't take the bus free state into account.
Fix a bug in the timeout handler that could cause corruption of the
disconnected list.
When sending an embedded cdb to a target, ensure that we start on a
quad word boundary in the data-fifo. It seems that unaligned stores
do not work correctly.
93cx6.c:
Make the SRAM dump output a little prettier.
aic7xxx.c:
Store all SG entries into our SG array in kernel space.
This makes data-overrun and other error reporting more
useful as we can dump all SG entries. In the past,
we only stored the SG entries that the sequencer might
need to access, which meant we skipped the first element
that is embedded into the SCB.
Add a table of chip strings and replace ugly switch
statements with table lookups.
Add a table with bus phase strings and message reponses
to parity errors in those phases. Use the table to
pretty print bus phase messages as well as collapse
another switch statement.
Fix a bug in target mode that could cause us to unpause
the sequencer early in bus reset processing.
Add the 80MHz/DT mode into our syncrate table. This
rate is not yet used or enabled.
Correct some comments, clean up some code...
aic7xxx.h:
Add U160 controller feature information.
Add some more bit fields for various SEEPROM formats.
aic7xxx.reg:
Add U160 register and register bit definitions.
aic7xxx.seq:
Make phasemis state tracking more straight forward. This
avoids the consumption of SINDEX which is a very useful register.
For the U160 chips, you must use the 'mov' instruction to
update DFCNTRL. Using 'or' to set the PRELOADED bit is
completely ineffective.
At the end of the command phase, wair for our ACK signal
to de-assert before disabling the SCSI dma engine. For
slow devices, this avoids clearing the ACK before the
other end has had a chance to see it and lower REQ.
aic7xxx.c:
Add a function for sucking firmware out of the controller
prior to reset.
Remove some inline bloat from functions that should not have
been inlined.
During initialization, wait 1ms after the chip reset before
touching any registers. You can get machine checks on certain
architectures (Atari I think?) without the delay.
Return CAM_REQ_CMP for external BDR requests instead
of CAM_BDR_SENT.
Bump some messages to bootverbose levels above 1.
Don't clear any negotiated sync rate if the target rejects
a WDTR message. The sync rate is only cleared if the target
accepts a WDTR message.
Fix a small bug in the mesgin handling code that could cause
us to believe that we had recieved a message that was actually
received by another target. This could only confuse us in
some very rare transmission negotiation scenarios.
Remove some unecessary cleanup of residual information after
a residual is reported. The sequencer does this when the
command is queued now.
messages, abort messages, and abort tag messages.
Fix a bug in how default transfer negotiations are handled if the
user had disabled initial bus resets.
Support multi-targetid on the aic7895C.
Honor the 'bus reset at startup' option now that the XPT properly
handles transfer negotiation in this scenario.
Honor the sync rate settings on Ultra2 controllers. We would
always negotiate at the fastest speed. Oops.
aic7xxx.h:
Whitespace.
aic7xxx.seq:
Fix a minor nit that would cause the controller to miss the update
of the negotiation required bitmask causing the negotiation to
be delayed by a command.
tell the sequencer to pause itself for a target msg variable update. This
avoids the pause race entirely as HS_MAILBOX can be accessed without
pausing the chip.
3.2 Merge candidate.
connection.
Clean up support for devices featuring the multiple target SCSI ID feature.
On aic7890/91/96/97 chips, we can now assume the target role on multiple
target ids simultaneously. Although these chips also have sufficient
instruction space to hold to support the initiator and target role at the
same time, the initiator role is currently disabled as it will conflict
(chip design restriction) with the multi-tid feature. I'll probably add
a nob to enable the initiator (there-by disabling multi-tid) some time
in the future.
Return queue full or busy, depending on the tagged nature of the incoming
request, if our command input queue fills up in host memeory.
Deal with accept target I/O resource shortages.
If we get an underrun on a transaction that wasn't supposed to transmit
any data, don't attempt to print out the S/G list. The code would
run until hitting a non-present page. (oops)
black hole device. The controller will now only accept selections if
the black hole device is present and some other target/lun is enabled
for target mode.
Handle the IGNORE WIDE RESIDUE message. This support has not been tested.
Checkpoint work on handling ABORT, BUS DEVICE RESET, TERMINATE I/O PROCESS,
and CLEAR QUEUE messages as a target.
Fix a few problems with tagged command handling in target mode.
Wait until the sync offset counter falls to 0 before changing phase
after a data-in transfer completes as the DMA logic seems to indicate
transfer complete as soon as our last REQ is issued.
Simplify some of the target mode message handling code in the sequencer.
in target mode, but we are not completing the command.
Use a template of allowed bus arbitration phases to selectively and
dynamically enable/disable initiator or target (re)selection.
Properly handle timeouts for target role transactions - just go to the
bus free state and report the error to the peripheral driver.
Checkpoint support for the XPT_ABORT_CCB function code. This currently
handles the accept tio and immediate notify ccb types, but does not
handle the continue target I/O or SCSI I/O ccb types. This is enough
to handle dynamic target enable/disable events.
Clean up the SCSI reset code so that we perform at most 1 SCSI bus
reset at initialization, the reset requested by the XPT layer.
is more robust and common code can be used for both the target and iniator
roles. The mechanism for tracking negotiation state has also been simplified.
Add support for sync/wide negotiation in target mode and fix many of
the target mode bugs running at higher speeds uncovered. Make a first
stab at getting all of the bus skew delays correct. Sync+Wide dataout
transfers still cause problems, but this may be an initiator problem.
Ensure that we exit BITBUCKET mode if the controller is restarted.
Add support for target mode only firmware downloads. This has been
tested on the aic7880, but should mean that we can perform target mode
on any aic7xxx controller. Mixed mode (initiator and target roles in
the same firmware load) is currently only supported on the aic7890, but
with optimization, may fit on chips with less instruction space.
use a 256 entry ring buffer of descriptersfor this purpose. This allows
the use of a simple 8bit counter in the sequencer code for tracking start
location.
Entries in the ring buffer now contain a "cmd_valid" byte at their tail.
As an entry is serviced, this byte is cleared by the kernel and set by
the sequencer during its dma of a new entry. Since this byte is the last
portion of the command touched during a dma, the kernel can use this
byte to ensure the command it processes is completely valid.
The new command format requires a fixed sized DMA from the controller
to deliver which allowed for additional simplification of the sequencer
code. The hack that required 1 SCB slot to be stolen for incoming
command delivery notification is also gone.
- Convert to CAM
- Use a new DMA based queuing and paging scheme
- Add preliminary target mode support
- Add support for the aic789X chips
- Take advantage of external SRAM on more controllers.
- Numerous bug fixes and performance improvements.
