replacing them with TAILQ's as appropriate. The SCSI code is the
first to be changed -- until the changes are complete, both b_act and
b_actf will be in the buf structure. b_actf will eventually be removed.
to <machine/conf.h>. conf.h was mechanically generated by
`grep ^d_ conf.c >conf.h'. This accounts for part of its ugliness. The
prototypes should be moved back to the driver sources when the functions
are staticalized.
sometime around 1.51, the check for minphys dissappeared out of
transfers for disks..
we weren't hecking that the adapter could handle a transfer of
the size we were requesting..

this explains the rash of failures I've seen reported recently
with "too many DMA segments" on raw devices
(added one for st as well)
probes). Apart from there being no reason to set SCSI_NOSLEEP on every
tape command, this prevents controller drivers from sleeping when resources
are fully utilized causing unecessary "Oops not queued" errors. This is
only noticed for controllers that can run out of resources like the
27/2842 adaptec controllers. Before this fix, it is almost impossible to
perform extended tape operations if more than one scsi disk is on the
bus with the tape drive with these controllers. This does not address a
similar problem that could occur if devices are probed while other targets
are active since SCSI_NOSLEEP will still be set in that case.
>Synopsis: Booting w/scsi tape in drive causes first use to fail
Booting with a tape in a SCSI tape drive will cause the first
use of the tape to fail with the following message:
st0: bad request, must be between 0 and 0.

Added protection so user-ioctl requires write access;
Clean up scsiconf.h a little. It needs more work.

Reenabled "SCIOCOMAND" ioctl.
Restructured so low level drivers can easily request retries.
Added preliminary fixed SCSI devices (should be revisited before 2.1)
Added "ssc" device that can have its' (HBA, ID, LUN) set via ioctl.
and all SCSI devices (except that it's not done quite the way I want). New
information added includes:
- A text description of the device
- A ``state''---unknown, unconfigured, idle, or busy
- A generic parent device (with support in the m.i. code)
- An interrupt mask type field (which will hopefully go away) so that
. ``doconfig'' can be written
This requires a new version of the `lsdev' program as well (next commit).
Changes are only effective, if NEW_SCSICONF is defined:
1) Added u_int16 quirks to struct scsi_link for device quirks.
2) Added void *devmodes to struct scsi_link for tape density modes.
3) Modified selectdev() to return first full match (with wildcard).
With this patch all device dependent configuration is done in one place
(scsiconf.c), while there were some specifications in st.c and some
hardware dependent drivers (ie. ncr.c) before.

NB: -Wtraditional will henceforth be forgotten. This editing pass was
primarily intended to detect any constructions where the old code might
have been relying on traditional C semantics or syntax. These were all
fixed, and the result of fixing some of them means that -Wall is now a
realistic possibility within a few weeks.

Some tapes won't do anything until you tell them to load.
Other tapes think that being asked to load is a great excuse to
make the next command return a "unit attention" (media changed) error.
Since we need to do the load, throw in a dummy instruction to cop the
error.
specifically for DEC DAT drives.
