4dd5dcaecd Revamp the way that exceptional message handling is performed so that it
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.

3bafc9d432 Massive overhaul of the aic7xxx driver:
- 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.

37507c1bd2 Add support to aicasm for "downloaded constants". These are immediate
operands that are set during seqeuncer program download instead of at
assembly time.

Convert the sequencer code to use" downloaded constants" for four run time
constants that vary depending on the board type.  This frees up 4 bytes
of sequencer scratch ram space where these constants used to be stored and
also removes the additional instructions required to load their values
into the accumulator prior to using them.

Remove the REJBYTE sram variable.  The host driver can just as easly
read the accumulator to get this value.

The scratch ram savings is important as the old code used to clober the
SCSICONF register on 274X cards which sits near the top of scratch ram
space.  The SCSICONF register controls bus termination, and clobbering
it is not a good thing.  Now we have 4 bytes to spare.

This should fix the reported problems with cards that don't have devices
attached to them failing with a stream of "Somone reset bus X" messages.

Doug Ledford determined the cause of the problem, fixes by me.

c66dbc92d4 Make the aic7xxx sequencer assembler compile in the kernel's object
directory.  Rename (via repository copy) some files so that the potential
for future conflicts is minimized.

f68f348b20 Modify my copyright notice to allow the sequencer to be used with GPLed
software (aka Linux).

Fix a few bugs in the sequencer assembler.

Make it easy to compiler the assembler with debugging turned on.

c5cb388883 Makefile gram.y scan.l sequencer.h symbol.c symbol.h aic7xxx_asm.c:
New sequencer assembler for the aic7xxx adapters.  This assembler
	performs some amount of register type checking, allows bit
	manipulation of symbolic constants, and generates "patch tables"
	for conditionalized downloading of portions of the program.
	This makes it easier to take full advantage of the different
	features of the aic7xxx cards without imposing run time penalies
	or being bound to the small memory footprints of the low end
	cards for features like target mode.

aic7xxx.reg:
	New, assembler parsed, register definitions fo the aic7xxx cards.
	This was done primarily in anticipation of 7810 support which
	will have a different register layout, but should be able to use
	the same assembler.  The kernel aic7xxx driver consumes a generated
	file in the compile directory to get the definitions of the register
	locations.

aic7xxx.seq:
	Convert to the slighly different syntax of the new assembler.

	Conditionalize SCB_PAGING, ultra, and twin features which shaves
	quite a bit of space once the program is downloaded.

	Add code to leave the selection hardware enabled during reconnects
	that win bus arbitration.  This ensures that we will rearbitrate
	as soon as the bus goes free instead of delaying for a bit.

	When we expect the bus to go free, perform all of the cleanup
	associated with that event "up front" and enter a loop awaiting
	bus free.  If we see a REQ first, complain, but attempt to
	continue.  This will hopefully address, or at least help diagnose,
	the "target didn't send identify" messages that have been reported.

Spelling corrections obtained from NetBSD.
