for optimizing the unpause operation no-longer exist, and this is much
safer.
When restarting the sequencer, reconstitute the free SCB list on the card.
This deals with a single instruction gap between marking the SCB as free
and actually getting it onto the free list.
Reduce the number of transfer negotiations that occur. In the past, we
renegotiated after every reported check condition status. This ensures
that we catch devices that have unexpectidly reset. In this situation,
the target will always report the check condition before performing a
data-phase. The new behavior is to renegotiate for any check-condition where
the residual matches the orginal data-length of the command (including
0 length transffers). This avoids renegotiations during things like
variable tape block reads, where the check condition is reported only
to indicate the residual of the read.
Revamp the parity error detection logic. We now properly report and
handle injected parity errors in all phases. The old code used to hang
on message-in parity errors.
Correct the reporting of selection timeout errors to the XPT. When
a selection timeout occurs, only the currently selecting command
is flagged with SELTO status instead of aborting all currently active
commands to that target.
Fix flipped arguments in ahc_match_scb and in some of the callers of this
routine. I wish that gcc allowed you to request warnings for enums passed
as ints.
Make ahc_find_msg generically handle all message types.
Work around the target mode data-in wideodd bug in all non-U2 chips.
We can now do sync-wide target mode transfers in target mode across the
hole product line.
Use lastphase exclusively for handling timeouts. The current phase
doesn't take the bus free state into account.
Fix a bug in the timeout handler that could cause corruption of the
disconnected list.
When sending an embedded cdb to a target, ensure that we start on a
quad word boundary in the data-fifo. It seems that unaligned stores
do not work correctly.
93cx6.c:
Make the SRAM dump output a little prettier.
aic7xxx.c:
Store all SG entries into our SG array in kernel space.
This makes data-overrun and other error reporting more
useful as we can dump all SG entries. In the past,
we only stored the SG entries that the sequencer might
need to access, which meant we skipped the first element
that is embedded into the SCB.
Add a table of chip strings and replace ugly switch
statements with table lookups.
Add a table with bus phase strings and message reponses
to parity errors in those phases. Use the table to
pretty print bus phase messages as well as collapse
another switch statement.
Fix a bug in target mode that could cause us to unpause
the sequencer early in bus reset processing.
Add the 80MHz/DT mode into our syncrate table. This
rate is not yet used or enabled.
Correct some comments, clean up some code...
aic7xxx.h:
Add U160 controller feature information.
Add some more bit fields for various SEEPROM formats.
aic7xxx.reg:
Add U160 register and register bit definitions.
aic7xxx.seq:
Make phasemis state tracking more straight forward. This
avoids the consumption of SINDEX which is a very useful register.
For the U160 chips, you must use the 'mov' instruction to
update DFCNTRL. Using 'or' to set the PRELOADED bit is
completely ineffective.
At the end of the command phase, wair for our ACK signal
to de-assert before disabling the SCSI dma engine. For
slow devices, this avoids clearing the ACK before the
other end has had a chance to see it and lower REQ.
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.
messages, abort messages, and abort tag messages.
Fix a bug in how default transfer negotiations are handled if the
user had disabled initial bus resets.
Support multi-targetid on the aic7895C.
Honor the 'bus reset at startup' option now that the XPT properly
handles transfer negotiation in this scenario.
Honor the sync rate settings on Ultra2 controllers. We would
always negotiate at the fastest speed. Oops.
aic7xxx.h:
Whitespace.
aic7xxx.seq:
Fix a minor nit that would cause the controller to miss the update
of the negotiation required bitmask causing the negotiation to
be delayed by a command.
tell the sequencer to pause itself for a target msg variable update. This
avoids the pause race entirely as HS_MAILBOX can be accessed without
pausing the chip.
3.2 Merge candidate.
connection.
Clean up support for devices featuring the multiple target SCSI ID feature.
On aic7890/91/96/97 chips, we can now assume the target role on multiple
target ids simultaneously. Although these chips also have sufficient
instruction space to hold to support the initiator and target role at the
same time, the initiator role is currently disabled as it will conflict
(chip design restriction) with the multi-tid feature. I'll probably add
a nob to enable the initiator (there-by disabling multi-tid) some time
in the future.
Return queue full or busy, depending on the tagged nature of the incoming
request, if our command input queue fills up in host memeory.
Deal with accept target I/O resource shortages.
If we get an underrun on a transaction that wasn't supposed to transmit
any data, don't attempt to print out the S/G list. The code would
run until hitting a non-present page. (oops)
black hole device. The controller will now only accept selections if
the black hole device is present and some other target/lun is enabled
for target mode.
Handle the IGNORE WIDE RESIDUE message. This support has not been tested.
Checkpoint work on handling ABORT, BUS DEVICE RESET, TERMINATE I/O PROCESS,
and CLEAR QUEUE messages as a target.
Fix a few problems with tagged command handling in target mode.
Wait until the sync offset counter falls to 0 before changing phase
after a data-in transfer completes as the DMA logic seems to indicate
transfer complete as soon as our last REQ is issued.
Simplify some of the target mode message handling code in the sequencer.
in target mode, but we are not completing the command.
Use a template of allowed bus arbitration phases to selectively and
dynamically enable/disable initiator or target (re)selection.
Properly handle timeouts for target role transactions - just go to the
bus free state and report the error to the peripheral driver.
Checkpoint support for the XPT_ABORT_CCB function code. This currently
handles the accept tio and immediate notify ccb types, but does not
handle the continue target I/O or SCSI I/O ccb types. This is enough
to handle dynamic target enable/disable events.
Clean up the SCSI reset code so that we perform at most 1 SCSI bus
reset at initialization, the reset requested by the XPT layer.
is more robust and common code can be used for both the target and iniator
roles. The mechanism for tracking negotiation state has also been simplified.
Add support for sync/wide negotiation in target mode and fix many of
the target mode bugs running at higher speeds uncovered. Make a first
stab at getting all of the bus skew delays correct. Sync+Wide dataout
transfers still cause problems, but this may be an initiator problem.
Ensure that we exit BITBUCKET mode if the controller is restarted.
Add support for target mode only firmware downloads. This has been
tested on the aic7880, but should mean that we can perform target mode
on any aic7xxx controller. Mixed mode (initiator and target roles in
the same firmware load) is currently only supported on the aic7890, but
with optimization, may fit on chips with less instruction space.
use a 256 entry ring buffer of descriptersfor this purpose. This allows
the use of a simple 8bit counter in the sequencer code for tracking start
location.
Entries in the ring buffer now contain a "cmd_valid" byte at their tail.
As an entry is serviced, this byte is cleared by the kernel and set by
the sequencer during its dma of a new entry. Since this byte is the last
portion of the command touched during a dma, the kernel can use this
byte to ensure the command it processes is completely valid.
The new command format requires a fixed sized DMA from the controller
to deliver which allowed for additional simplification of the sequencer
code. The hack that required 1 SCB slot to be stolen for incoming
command delivery notification is also gone.
- 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.
