Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
page. Remove comment about EISA dual channel card. Remove trivial
references in advlib to avoid false positives with grep. Remove stray
MCA reference not worth a seperate commit.
- Disable the support for the second channel on twin-channel EISA cards as
the current incarnation can't possibly work correctly (it hasn't worked
since switching to new-bus where new-bus allocates the softc). If anyone
bothers to test this again it can be fixed properly and brought back.
- Use device_printf() and device_get_nameunit() instead of adv_name().
- Remove use of explicit bus space handles and tags.
- Use PCI bus accessors and helper routines rather than accessing
config registers directly.
- Handle failures from adv_attach().

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.

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.
Update list of supported products.
Adjust probe message to include the ASC3030.
advansys.c:
Fix a long standing bug in the error recovery strategy. In order
to keep recovery simple, we freeze the SIMQ, stopping the XPT from
submitting new requests. Unfortunately, we also will freeze the
SIMQ if bus_dmamap_load blocks or we run out of controller resources.
On cards with limited resources it was possible to freeze the
SIM a second time and never unfreeze it. Now we more carefully
track our exception state so we never freeze the SIMQ more than
once.
Don't rely on pointers fitting in a 32bit field stored in the
per-transaction data structures on the card. Use an index to
an array of transaction mapping structures instead. This should
allow this driver to work on the Alpha.
Deal with the ASC3030 which is almost idistinguishable from the
ASC3050. Unfortunately the ASC3030 does not work at Ultra speeds,
so if we can't find an eeprom, we must assume that ultra is disabled.
The SIIG cards using the 3030 do not have eeproms. As a side effect,
we now honor the ultra disable bit in the eeprom if it is present.
Don't bother attempting to write corrected eeprom data back to the
eeprom. We can function just fine if the data is corrupted and
I'd rather not risk messing up the user's eeprom.
Modify the interrupt handler to catch latched external bus rests.
Dynamically determine the maximum number of S/G elements we can
map at a single time. The nature of the firmware interface for
these cards makes this value dependent on the number of "queues"
the card can support.

Synchronize with the latest firmware image released in the
Linux Advansys driver.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
I have only tested the ABP5140 card and only with a single CDROM drive
but it seems to work fine. This driver relies on features found only in
the SCSI branch so will not work in -current until those changes
are brought in. It also doesn't have any error handling code *yet*.
The goal is to use this driver as the development platform for the new
generic SCSI layer error recovery/handling code.
PCI and EISA front ends will show up as soon as I get my hands on
the cards. There are also a few issues in the driver that I need
to clear up with AdvanSys before I can suggest sticking one of
these cards in your server. 8-)
