Devices below may experience a change in geometry.
* Due to a bug, aic(4) never used extended geometry. Changes all drives
>1G to now use extended translation.
* sbp(4) drives exactly 1 GB in size now no longer use extended geometry.
* umass(4) drives exactly 1 GB in size now no longer use extended geometry.
For all other controllers in this commit, this should be a no-op.
Looked over by: scottl
at insert time. When asking gibbs for approval for an MFC, this was
his reply:
1) It leaks memory if it can't allocate a path.
2) It defers allocation of aic->path until the call to scan the
bus. This means the path may be NULL when an interrupt occurs
prior to the call to scan the bus (stray bus reset for instance),
which will lead to a panic.
3) The driver in current doesn't recover from the failure to allocate
aic->path. The driver doesn't check during normal operation if
the path is NULL, so again a panic will result.
4) aic_cam_rescan calls malloc with M_WAITOK. aic_cam_rescan is called
from attach where it isn't necessarily safe to sleep.
5) And most importantly, it co-opts the xpt_periph from the driver level.
This was never part of the design (xpt_periph used to be static). Making
a call of this type may completely confuse the XPT if other XPT operations
are ongoing.
In the long term, Justin and Warner agreed to implement solution where
CAM itself will initiate the bus rescan if a new bus is added. For
the time being (and in particular in light of the upcoming 4.5
release), we now have camcontrol available on the boot floppy, and can
have pccardd initiate the rescan through it.
- enable 10MHz (fast SCSI) operation on boards that support it. (only
aic6360 boards with fast SCSI enabled can do it)
- bounds check sync periods and offsets passed in from the transport layer
- tell the user which resource allocation failed (for the ISA probe) if we
weren't able to allocate an IRQ, DRQ or I/O port.
been so positive that I'm going to go ahead and commit this now rather
than do another round of patches.
My Adaptec 1460D works great with these changes.
