- Cleanup kernel messages, mostly PMP.
- Took references on devices, while PMP reinitializes them, to not let them
go and distort freeze reference counting.
Introduce ATA_CAM kernel option, turning ata(4) controller drivers into
cam(4) interface modules. When enabled, this options deprecates all ata(4)
peripheral drivers (ad, acd, ...) and interfaces and allows cam(4) drivers
(ada, cd, ...) and interfaces to be natively used instead.
As side effect of this, ata(4) mode setting code was completely rewritten
to make controller API more strict and permit above change. While doing
this, SATA revision was separated from PATA mode. It allows DMA-incapable
SATA devices to operate and makes hw.ata.atapi_dma tunable work again.
Also allow ata(4) controller drivers (except some specific or broken ones)
to handle larger data transfers. Previous constraint of 64K was artificial
and is not really required by PCI ATA BM specification or hardware.

- Extend XPT-SIM transfer settings control API. Now it allows to report to
SATA SIM number of tags supported by each device, implement ATA mode and
SATA revision negotiation for both SATA and PATA SIMs.
- Make ahci(4) and siis(4) to use submitted maximum tag number, when
scheduling requests. It allows to support NCQ on devices with lower tags
count then controller supports.
- Make PMP driver to report attached devices connection speeds.
- Implement ATA mode negotiation between user settings, device and
controller capabilities.
- Move tagged queueing control from ADA to ATA XPT. It allows to control
device command queue length correctly. First step to support < 32 tags.
- Limit queue for non-tagged devices by 2 slots for ahci(4) and siis(4).
- Implement quirk matching for ATA devices.
- Move xpt_schedule_dev_sendq() from header to source file.
- Move delayed queue shrinking to the more expected place - element freeing.
- Remove some SCSIsms in ATA.
- Remove CAM_PERIPH_POLLED flag. It is broken by design. Polling can't be
periph flag. May be SIM, may be CCB, but now it works fine just without it.
- Remove check unused for at least five years. If we will ever have non-BIO
devices in CAM, this check is smallest of what we will need.
- If several controllers complete requests same time, call swi_sched()
only once.
- Add support for sector size > 512 bytes and physical sector of several
logical sectors, introduced by ATA-7 specification.
- Remove some obsoleted code.
Fix reference counting bug, when device unreferenced before then
invalidated. To do it, do not handle validity flag as another
reference, but explicitly modify reference count each time flag is
modified.

- Reduce code duplication in ATA XPT and PMP driver.
- Move PIO size setting from ada driver to ATA XPT. It is XPT business
to negotiate transfer details. ada driver is now stateless.
- Report PIO size to SIM. It is required for correct PATA SIM operation.
- Tune PMP scan timings. It workarounds some problems with SiI.
- If reset hapens during PMP initialization - restart it.
- Introduce early-initialized periph drivers, which are used during initial
scan process. Use it for xpt, probe, aprobe and pmp. It gives pmp chance
to finish scan before mountroot and numerate devices in right order.
Separate CAM_DEV_IDENTIFY_DATA_VALID flag from CAM_DEV_INQUIRY_DATA_VALID.
Add workaround for very old devices without support for mode setting.
Add some PATA bus scanning support.
Remove some SCSIsms.
Add support for PIO-only devices.
Fix maxio values and 256 sectors transactions for 28bits commands.
Implement periodic ordered commands insertion, sames as da driver does.
Remove some SCSIsms.
for ATA_SETFEATURES/ATA_SF_SETXFER command which by definition transfers no
data. Most of controllers are irrelevant to this bug, but some nVidia's
doesn't.

modularize it so that new transports can be created.
Add a transport for SATA
Add a periph+protocol layer for ATA
Add a driver for AHCI-compliant hardware.
Add a maxio field to CAM so that drivers can advertise their max
I/O capability. Modify various drivers so that they are insulated
from the value of MAXPHYS.
The new ATA/SATA code supports AHCI-compliant hardware, and will override
the classic ATA driver if it is loaded as a module at boot time or compiled
into the kernel. The stack now support NCQ (tagged queueing) for increased
performance on modern SATA drives. It also supports port multipliers.
ATA drives are accessed via 'ada' device nodes. ATAPI drives are
accessed via 'cd' device nodes. They can all be enumerated and manipulated
via camcontrol, just like SCSI drives. SCSI commands are not translated to
their ATA equivalents; ATA native commands are used throughout the entire
stack, including camcontrol. See the camcontrol manpage for further
details. Testing this code may require that you update your fstab, and
possibly modify your BIOS to enable AHCI functionality, if available.
This code is very experimental at the moment. The userland ABI/API has
changed, so applications will need to be recompiled. It may change
further in the near future. The 'ada' device name may also change as
more infrastructure is completed in this project. The goal is to
eventually put all CAM busses and devices until newbus, allowing for
interesting topology and management options.
Few functional changes will be seen with existing SCSI/SAS/FC drivers,
though the userland ABI has still changed. In the future, transports
specific modules for SAS and FC may appear in order to better support
the topologies and capabilities of these technologies.
The modularization of CAM and the addition of the ATA/SATA modules is
meant to break CAM out of the mold of being specific to SCSI, letting it
grow to be a framework for arbitrary transports and protocols. It also
allows drivers to be written to support discrete hardware without
jeopardizing the stability of non-related hardware. While only an AHCI
driver is provided now, a Silicon Image driver is also in the works.
Drivers for ICH1-4, ICH5-6, PIIX, classic IDE, and any other hardware
is possible and encouraged. Help with new transports is also encouraged.
