msmith dc84f203b7 Major update to the Mylex DAC960 driver adding new hardware support
and fixing some major bugs.

 - Add support for the v5 firmware interface, used by the DAC1164P
   (tested) and AcceleRAID 352 (untested but should work).  We now cover
   all of the Mylex family's protocols except for v2 (used by EISA and
   Alpha-compatible cards).

 - Fix an accounting bug which resulted in endless 'poll still busy'
   messages.  In situations of high controller load the count of poll
   commands could be incremented without actually successfully launching
   a command.  This totally removes the accounting for status poll
   commnads; it was its own worst enemy.

 - Add some simple reentry prevention locks to processing of the waiting
   and completed command queues to prevent races which could result in
   I/O being done or completed twice (both are fatal).  This highlights
   a need for simple locking primitives in both the UP and SMP kernels.

 - Streamline the handling of command completion to reduce the amount of
   redundant work being done.  Remove the code which tests for commands
   that have gone missing in action; nobody has ever seen one of these
   and it wouldn't have worked properly anyhow.

 - Handle disconnection of drives from the controller in the detach,
   not shutdown method.  This avoids problems flushing the cache in
   a panic when a drive is mounted.

 - Don't call bus_generic_detach when disconnecting drives; it doesn't
   actually do anything useful.

 - Increment the log message index regardless of whether we actually
   retrieved one or not.  If we run into a message that we can't fetch,
   we don't want to spin endlessly complaining about the fact.

 - Don't assume that interrupts will work when we're flushing the
   controller.  We may think they are enabled, but in eg. a panic
   situation the controller may not be able to deliver an interrupt.

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
