and outputing them in generated files.
Fixed a few other scanner bugs that for some reason didn't show up until
these modifications were made.
MFC after: 10 days
Add support for constructing a table of critical section regions in
the firmware image. The kernel driver will soon have support for
single stepping the sequencer outside of a critical region prior
to starting exception handling.
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.
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.
- 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.
operands that are set during seqeuncer program download instead of at
assembly time.
Convert the sequencer code to use" downloaded constants" for four run time
constants that vary depending on the board type. This frees up 4 bytes
of sequencer scratch ram space where these constants used to be stored and
also removes the additional instructions required to load their values
into the accumulator prior to using them.
Remove the REJBYTE sram variable. The host driver can just as easly
read the accumulator to get this value.
The scratch ram savings is important as the old code used to clober the
SCSICONF register on 274X cards which sits near the top of scratch ram
space. The SCSICONF register controls bus termination, and clobbering
it is not a good thing. Now we have 4 bytes to spare.
This should fix the reported problems with cards that don't have devices
attached to them failing with a stream of "Somone reset bus X" messages.
Doug Ledford determined the cause of the problem, fixes by me.
New sequencer assembler for the aic7xxx adapters. This assembler
performs some amount of register type checking, allows bit
manipulation of symbolic constants, and generates "patch tables"
for conditionalized downloading of portions of the program.
This makes it easier to take full advantage of the different
features of the aic7xxx cards without imposing run time penalies
or being bound to the small memory footprints of the low end
cards for features like target mode.
aic7xxx.reg:
New, assembler parsed, register definitions fo the aic7xxx cards.
This was done primarily in anticipation of 7810 support which
will have a different register layout, but should be able to use
the same assembler. The kernel aic7xxx driver consumes a generated
file in the compile directory to get the definitions of the register
locations.
aic7xxx.seq:
Convert to the slighly different syntax of the new assembler.
Conditionalize SCB_PAGING, ultra, and twin features which shaves
quite a bit of space once the program is downloaded.
Add code to leave the selection hardware enabled during reconnects
that win bus arbitration. This ensures that we will rearbitrate
as soon as the bus goes free instead of delaying for a bit.
When we expect the bus to go free, perform all of the cleanup
associated with that event "up front" and enter a loop awaiting
bus free. If we see a REQ first, complain, but attempt to
continue. This will hopefully address, or at least help diagnose,
the "target didn't send identify" messages that have been reported.
