SAS-enabled cards. It also makes the driver MPSAFE, eliminating some
problems that resulted from CAM becoming MPSAFE. Many thanks to 3Ware/AMCC

now takes a device_t to be the parent of the bus that is being created.
Most SIMs have been updated with a reasonable argument, but a few exceptions
just pass NULL for now. This argument isn't used yet and the newbus
integration likely won't be ready until after 7.0-RELEASE.
This patch does the following:
- Remove un-necessary code that is not even compiling into the driver
under TW_OSL_NON_DMA_MEM_ALLOC_PER_REQUEST defines.
- Remove bundled firmware image and associated "files" entry for tw_cl_fwimg.c
- Remove bundled firmware flashing routines. We now have tw_update userspace
FreeBSD controller flash utility.
- Fix driver crash on load due to shared interrupt.
- Fix 2 lock leaks for Giant lock.
- Fix CCB leak.
- Add support for 9650SE controllers.
Many thanks to 3Ware/AMCC for continuing to support FreeBSD.
use to synchornize and protect all data objects that are used for that
SIM. Drivers that are not yet MPSAFE register Giant and operate as
usual. RIght now, no drivers are MPSAFE, though a few will be changed
in the coming week as this work settles down.
The driver API has changed, so all CAM drivers will need to be recompiled.
The userland API has not changed, so tools like camcontrol do not need to
be recompiled.
the CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE that has been in the tree for some years now.
This first step consists solely of adding to or correcting
CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE pieces in the kernel source tree such
that a both a GENERIC (at least on i386) and a LINT build
with CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE as an option will compile correctly
and run (at least with some the h/w I have).
After a short settle time, the other pieces (making
CAM_NEW_TRAN_CODE the default and updating libcam
and camcontrol) will be brought in.
This will be an incompatible change in that the size of structures
related to XPT_PATH_INQ and XPT_{GET,SET}_TRAN_SETTINGS change
in both size and content. However, basic system operation and
basic system utilities work well enough with this change.

3ware's 9xxx series controllers. This corresponds to
the 9.2 release (for FreeBSD 5.2.1) on the 3ware website.
Highlights of this release are:
1. The driver has been re-architected to use a "Common Layer"
(all tw_cl* files), which is a consolidation of all OS-independent
parts of the driver. The FreeBSD OS specific portions of the
driver go into an "OS Layer" (all tw_osl* files).
This re-architecture is to achieve better maintainability, consistency
of behavior across OS's, and better portability to new OS's (drivers
for new OS's can be written by just adding an OS Layer that's specific
to the OS, by complying to a "Common Layer Programming Interface" API.
2. The driver takes advantage of multiple processors.
3. The driver has a new firmware image bundled, the new features of which
include Online Capacity Expansion and multi-lun support, among others.
More details about 3ware's 9.2 release can be found here:
http://www.3ware.com/download/Escalade9000Series/9.2/9.2_Release_Notes_Web.pdf
Since the Common Layer is used across OS's, the FreeBSD specific include
path for header files (/sys/dev/twa) is not part of the #include pre-processor
directive in any of the source files. For being able to integrate twa into
the kernel despite this, Makefile.<arch> has been changed to add the include
path to CFLAGS.
