passing it to firmware for all Gen3 controllers.
For Thunderbolt controller, keep the legacy behavior i.e. return the SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE command with success status from driver itself.
There is Sysctl parameter 'block_sync_cache' is provided to enable customers either to block/unblock these commands to facilitate
legacy behavior if there is a compatibility issue. Default value for module parameter is to unblock this command.

If a SCSI IO times out, then before initiating OCR, now the driver will try to send a
target reset to the particular target for which the IO is timed out. If that also fails,
then the driver will initiate OCR.

MFI linked list in megaraid_sas driver is used for mfi-mpt pass-through commands.
This list can be corrupted due to many possible race conditions in driver and
eventually we may see kernel panic.
One example -
MFI frame is freed from calling process as driver send command via polling method and interrupt
for that command comes after driver free mfi frame (actually even after some other context reuse
the mfi frame). When driver receive MPT frame in ISR, driver will be using the index of MFI and
access that MFI frame and finally in-used MFI frames list will be corrupted.
High level description of new solution -
Free MFI and MPT command from same context.
Free both the command either from process (from where mfi-mpt pass-through was called) or from
ISR context. Do not split freeing of MFI and MPT, because it creates the race condition which
will do MFI/MPT list.

NOTE:
The FreeBSD system currently restricts the MAX IO size to MAXPHYS which
in turn is 128KB. We tested the 1MB IO by converting the MAXPHYS to 1MB.

Switch from make_dev_alias to make_dev_alias_p since make_dev_alias_p can
gracefully fail if the /dev/megaraid_sas_ioctl_node symlink already exists.
This can happen if mfi(4) and mrsas(4) are both attached to cards and
providing Linux emulation support. Let the first one win. An equivalent
change has been done in mfi(4). Extra credit would be to pass the
Linux emulation call to the other driver when appropriate. This will
probably be a rare case and the user can manually change where the symlink
points to.

1. While disabling interrupt the FW disables interrupts for only 16 vectors.
In case of Invader which supports 96 MSI-x vectors, some spurious interrupts
may come on other vectors even after interrupt disable. So, driver uses a flag
and ignores the spurious interrupts.
2. Reply queue depth is made double the number of commands supported by FW.
3. Misplaced interrupt enable code is now moved down in the OCR path.
4. Updated error handling code in OCR path.
5. Removed un-necessary print.

There will be a small window where IO will come from OS with old RAID map.
This patch will update adapter state to MEGASAS_HBA_OPERATIONAL,

- Wrong integer type was specified.
- Wrong or missing "access" specifier. The "access" specifier
sometimes included the SYSCTL type, which it should not, except for
procedural SYSCTL nodes.
- Logical OR where binary OR was expected.
- Properly assert the "access" argument passed to all SYSCTL macros,
using the CTASSERT macro. This applies to both static- and dynamically
created SYSCTLs.
- Properly assert the the data type for both static and dynamic
SYSCTLs. In the case of static SYSCTLs we only assert that the data
pointed to by the SYSCTL data pointer has the correct size, hence
there is no easy way to assert types in the C language outside a
C-function.
- Rewrote some code which doesn't pass a constant "access" specifier
when creating dynamic SYSCTL nodes, which is now a requirement.
- Updated "EXAMPLES" section in SYSCTL manual page.

where as there are limited number(32) of mfi commands in the pool.
The mfi command pool is now restricted to 27 simultaneous accesses by using
a counting semaphore while calling the passthru function.
In the mrsas_cam.c source file there was a same function name mrsas_poll(),
which was same as the mrsas_poll() implemented in the mrsas.c file for the
polling interface.
To clearly distinguish the functionality by usage we have renamed the former
as mrsas_cam_poll().
In the passthru function let's say it has got an mfi command from the pool
but it has failed in one of the DMA function call which will lead to leak
an mfi command because in the ERROR case it directly returns and not freeing up
the occupied mfi command.

E.g: If the user wants to create more than 64VD on a controller,
it is not possible on current firmware/driver.
New feature and requirement to support upto 256VD, firmware/driver/apps need changes.
In addition to that, there must be a backward compatibility of the new driver with the
older firmware and vice versa.
RAID map is the interface between Driver and FW to fetch all required
fields(attributes) for each Virtual Drives.
In the earlier design driver was using the FW copy of RAID map where as
in the new design the Driver will keep the RAID map copy of its own; on which
it will operate for any raid map access in fast path.
Local driver raid map copy will provide ease of access through out the code
and provide generic interface for future FW raid map changes.
For the backward compatibility driver will notify FW that it supports 256VD
to the FW in driver capability field.
Based on the controller properly returned by the FW, the Driver will know
whether it supports 256VD or not and will copy the RAID map accordingly.
At any given time, driver will always have old or new Raid map.

cards. LSI has been maintaining this driver outside of the FreeBSD
tree. It overlaps support of ThunderBolt and Invader cards that mfi(4)
supports. By default mfi(4) will attach to cards. If the tunable:
hw.mfi.mrsas_enable=1
is set then mfi(4) will not probe and attach to these newer cards and
allow mrsas(4) to attach. So by default this driver will not effect
a FreeBSD system unless mfi(4) is removed from the kernel or the
tunable is enabled.
mrsas(4) attaches disks to the CAM layer so it depends on CAM and devices
show up as /dev/daX. mfiutil(8) does not work with mrsas. The FreeBSD
version of MegaCli and StorCli from LSI do work with mrsas. It appears
that StorCli only works with mrsas. MegaCli appears to work with mfi(4)
and mrsas(4).
It would be good to add mfiutil(4) support to mrsas, emulations modes,
kernel logging, device aliases to ease the transition between mfi(4)
and mrsas(4).
Style issues should be resolved by LSI when they get committers approved.
The plan is get this driver in FreeBSD 9.3 to improve HW support.
Thanks to LSI for developing, testing and working with FreeBSD to
make this driver co-exist in FreeBSD. This improves the overall
support of MegaRAID SAS.
