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.
compiled into the main AMR driver. It's code that is nice to have but not
required for normal operation, and it is reported to cause problems for some
people.

from the amr_linux. This simplifies the amr_linux shim and puts the
smarts into amr.c.
I tested this with 2 amr controllers in one box. It seems to work
okay with them.
The real problem was that ioctl handlers needed to call amr_wait_command()
with the list lock held. This not only solves the completion race, it also
prevents bounce buffer corruption that could arise from amr_start() being
called without the proper locks held.

routines.
- Add or replace cpu_spinwait() with DELAY(1) to a few of the busy
loops when reading from the controller to work around firmware bugs
which can crash the controller.
1. Implement a large set of ioctl shims so that the Linux management apps
from LSI will work. This includes infrastructure to support adding, deleting
and rescanning arrays at runtime. This is based on work from Doug Ambrosko,
heavily augmented by LSI and Yahoo.
2. Implement full 64-bit DMA support. Systems with more than 4GB of RAM
can now operate without the cost of bounce buffers. Cards that cannot do
64-bit DMA will automatically revert to using bounce buffers. This option
can be forced off by setting the 'hw.amr.force_sg32" tunable in the loader.
It should only be turned off for debugging purposes. This work was sponsored
by Yahoo.
3. Streamline the command delivery and interrupt handler paths after
much discussion with Dell and LSI. The logic now closely matches the
intended design, making it both more robust and much faster. Certain
i/o failures under heavy load should be fixed with this.
4. Optimize the locking. In the interrupt handler, the card can be checked
for completed commands without any locks held, due to the handler being
implicitely serialized and there being no need to look at any shared data.
Only grab the lock to return the command structure to the free pool. A
small optimization can still be made to collect all of the completions
together and then free them together under a single lock.
Items 3 and 4 significantly increase the performance of the driver. On an
LSI 320-2X card, transactions per second went from 13,000 to 31,000 in my
testing with these changes. However, these changes are still fairly
experimental and shouldn't be merged to 6.x until there is more testing.
Thanks to Doug Ambrosko, LSI, Dell, and Yahoo for contributing towards
this.
- Introduce the amr_io_lock to control access to command queues, bio queues,
and the hardware.
- Eliminate the taskqueue and do all completion processing in the ithread.
- Assign a static slot number to each command instead of doing a linear
search for free slots each time a command is needed.
- Modify the interrupt handler to more closely match what Linux does, for
safety.
properly support bounce buffers and resource shortages. This allows the
driver to work properly and reliably with more than 4GB of RAM. Of the
three data paths that exist in the driver, (block, CAM, ioctl), the ioctl
path has not been well tested with these changes due to difficulty with
finding an application that uses it that actually works.

Previously the "struct disk" were owned by the device driver and this
gave us problems when the device disappared and the users of that device
were not immediately disappearing.
Now the struct disk is allocate with a new call, disk_alloc() and owned
by geom_disk and just abandonned by the device driver when disk_create()
is called.
Unfortunately, this results in a ton of "s/\./->/" changes to device
drivers.
Since I'm doing the sweep anyway, a couple of other API improvements
have been carried out at the same time:
The Giant awareness flag has been flipped from DISKFLAG_NOGIANT to
DISKFLAG_NEEDSGIANT
A version number have been added to disk_create() so that we can detect,
report and ignore binary drivers with old ABI in the future.
Manual page update to follow shortly.
Retain the mistake of not updating the devstat API for now.
Spell bioq_disksort() consistently with the remaining bioq_*().
#include <geom/geom_disk.h> where this is more appropriate.

As a side effect this makes a lot of #include <sys/devicestat.h>
lines not needed and some biofinish() calls can be reduced to
biodone() again.

Fix - polling was implemented incorrectly for

Fix - device nodes are not destroyed for amr0,
and amrd* when driver is unloaded
(3) Problem: PANIC from loading driver when
3ware adapter present, error message "Warning
"amrd is usurping twed's bmaj"
Fix - put #idef freebsd version < 500000 for

(4) Problem: warnings in driver when compiling
with DAMR_DEBUG param enabled in Makefile
Fix - fix the warnings so driver can compile
when -Werror is present in Makefile.

Rename diskerr() to disk_err() for naming consistency.
Drop the by now entirely useless struct disklabel argument.
Add a flag argument for new-line termination.
Fix a couple of printf-format-casts to %j instead of %l.
Correctly print the name of all bio commands.
Move the function from subr_disklabel.c to subr_disk.c,
and from <sys/disklabel.h> to <sys/disk.h>.
Use the new disk_err() throughout, #include <sys/disk.h> as needed.
Bump __FreeBSD_version for the sake of the aac disk drivers #ifdefs.
Remove unused disklabel members of softc for aac, amr and mlx, which seem
to originally have been intended for diskerr() use, but which only rotted
and got Copy&Pasted at least two times to many.
