f6a6ae8f5c Don't call isp_intr from isp_start- this seems to, in rare cases,
cause confusion with at least the 23XX chipsets where the output

af4394d40a Don't attempt to load illegal hard loop addresses into
an ICB. This shows up on card restarts, and usually for
2200-2300 cards. What happens is that we start up,
attempting to acquire a hard address. We end up instead
being an F-port topology, which reports out a loop id
of 0xff (or 0xffff for 2K Login f/w). Then, if we restart,
we end up telling the card to go off an acquire this loop
address, which the card then rejects. Bah.

Compilation fixes from Solaris port.

f7c631bcf0 Push things closer to path failover by implementing loop down and
gone device timers and zombie state entries. There are tunables
that can be used to select a number of parameters.

loop_down_limit - how long to wait for loop to come back up before
declaring
all devices dead (default 300 seconds)

gone_device_time- how long to wait for a device that has appeared
to leave the loop or fabric to reappear (default 30 seconds)

Internal tunables include (which should be externalized):

quick_boot_time- how long to wait when booting for loop to come up

change_is_bad- whether or not to accept devices with the same
WWNN/WWPN that reappear at a different PortID as being the 'same'
device.

Keen students of some of the subtle issues here will ask how
one can keep devices from being re-accepted at all (the answer
is to set a gone_device_time to zero- that effectively would
be the same thing).

1e6fdb7e32 Fix 2KLOGIN code to specify *ibits* (not *obits*) so that the
options field in register 10 will be deterministic, not random.

Correct the number of input bits for EXECUTE_FIRMWARE 0..1 to
0..2- the 2322 and 24XX cards use mailbox register 2 to specify
whether the f/w being executed is freshly loaded or not.

Correct the number of input bits for {READ,WRITE}_RAM_WORD_EXTENDED
so that register 8 gets picked up.

Fix the indexing and offset for the 2322 f/w download so that it
correctly puts the different code segments where they belong.

Move VERIFY_CHECKSUM to be the 'else' clause to 2322 f/w downloads-
the EXECUTE_FIRMWARE command for 2322 and 24XX cards will tell you
if the f/w checksum is incorrect and VERIFY_CHECKSUM only works for
RISC SRAM address < 64K so you can only do a VERIFY_CHECKSUM on the
first of the 3 f/w segments for the 2322.

Shorten the delay for the continuation mailbox commands- 1ms is
ridiculous (100us is more likely).

All of the more or less is really only for the 2322/6322 cards.

to getting rid u_int for uint and so on).

b) Turn back on 64 bit DAC support. Cheeze it a bit in that we have two
DMA callback functions- one when we have bus_addr_t > 4 bits in width and
the other which should be normal. Even Cheezier in that we turn off setting
up DMA maps to be BUS_SPACE_MAXADDR if we're in ISP_TARGET_MODE. More work
on this in a week or so.

c) Tested under amd64 and 1MB DFLTPHYS, sparc64, i386 (PAE, but insufficient
memory to really test > 4GB). LINT check under amd64.

e526523707 First of several commits as this driver is dusted off and maybe brought
up to date.  Principle changes for this reelase is to support 2K Port Login
firmware. This allows us to support the 2322 (and 2422 4Gb) cards which only
come with the 2K Port Login firmware. The 2322 should now work- but we don't
have firmware sets for it in ispfw (as the change to load 2K Port Login f/w
hasn't been made- that f/w is so big it has to be loaded in more than one
chunk).

Other changes are the beginnings of cleaning up some long standing target
mode issues. The next changes here will incorporate a lot of bug fixes
from others.

Finally, some copyright cleanup and attempts to make the parts of the
driver that are FreeBSD specific start conforming more to FreeBSD style.

28f0575cf1 On reset, make sure that we have some parameters set correctly. This
fixes a longstanding issue WRT resetting the chip after startup- it
would fail if we were connected as an F-port to a switch. If we
were connected as an F-port, we got assigned a hard loop ID of 255,
which is really a bogus loop id. Then when we turned around to
reset ourselves, the firmware would reject the ICB_INIT request
because the loop id was bogus. *sputter*

Minor fixlet from somebody in NetBSD with too much time on their
hands (dma -> DMA).

fecfd395b0 If we're using ancient (pre 1.17.0) 2100 f/w (for the cards that cannot
load f/w images > 0x7fff words), set ISP_FW_ATTR_SCCLUN. We explicitly
don't believe we can find attributes if f/w is < 1.17.0, so we have to
set SCCLUN for the 1.15.37 f/w we're using manually- otherwise every
target will replicate itself across all 16 supported luns for non-SCCLUN
f/w.

Correctly set things up for 23XX and either fast posting or ZIO. The
23XX, it turns out, does not support RIO. If you put a non-zero value
in xfwoptions, this will disable fast posting. If you put ICBXOPT_ZIO
in xfwoptions, then the 23XX will do interrupt delays but post to the
response queue- apparently QLogic *now* believes that reading multiple
handles from registers is less of a win than writing (and delaying)
multiple 64 byte responses to the response queue.

At the end of taking a a good f/w crash dump, send the ISPASYNC_FW_DUMPED
event to the outer layers (who can then do things like wake a user
daemon to *fetch* the crash image, etc.).

af2d254da9 Remove the 'bogus registrant' hack for fabric searches. It really
turns out that there's something of a hole in our new fabric name
server stuff.  We ask the name server for entities that have
registered as a specific type.  That type is FC-SCSI. If the entity
hasn't performed a REGISTER FC4 TYPES, the fabric nameserver won't
return it.

This brings this driver to a bit of a fork in the road as to what
the right thing to do is. For servicing the needs of accessing
FC-SCSI devices, this method is fine, and to be preferred. It is
extremely unlikely we're interested in fabric devices that *don't*
register correctly. If I ever get around to adding an FC-IP stack,
then asking for devices that have registers as FC-IP types is also
the right thing to do.

So- asking the fabric nameserver for a specific type is fine, *as
long as you are only interested in specific types*. If, on the other
hand, you want to create (as for management tool support) a picture
of everything on the fabric, this is *not* so fine. There are a
large class of FC-SCSI *initiators* who *don't* correctly register,
so we never will *see* them.

Is this a problem? Yes, but only a little one. If we want to do such
management tool support, we should probably run a *different* fabric
nameserver query algorithm. Better yet, we should talk to the management
nameserver in Brocade switches instead of the standard FC-GS-2 fabric
nameserver (which can be unwieldy).

Other changes: if we've overrrides marked, don't set some default
values from reading NVRAM. This allows us to override things like
EXEC throttle without having to ignore NVRAM entirely.

029f13c671 Fix bus dma segment count to be based off of MAXPHYS, not BUS_SPACE_MAXSIZE.
Grumble. I've seen better documented architectures out of Redmond.

Redo fabric evaluation to not use GET ALL NEXT (GA_NXT). Switches seem
to be trying to wriggle out of supporting this well. Instead, use
GID_FT to get a list of Port IDs and then use GPN_ID/GNN_ID to find the
port and node wwn. This should make working on fabrics a bit cleaner and
more stable.

This also caused some cleanup of SNS subcommand canonicalization so that
we can actually check for FS_ACC and FS_RJT, and if we get an FS_RJT,
print out the reason and explanation codes.

We'll keep the old GA_NXT method around if people want to uncomment a
controlling definition in ispvar.h.

This also had us clean up ISPASYNC_FABRICDEV to use a local lportdb argument
and to have the caller explicitly say that a device is at the end of the
fabric list.

For target mode, or things called if we call isp_handle_other response- note
that we might have dropped locks by changing the output pointer so we bail
from the loop. It's the responsibility of the entity dropping the lock to
make sure that we let the f/w know we've read thus far into the response
queue (else we begin processing the same entries again- blech!).

014e78d18c Fix a problem where a local loop disk logs out- and we get a PORT LOGGED
OUT status. We are, apparently, required to force the f/w to log back in
if we want to try and talk to that disk again. This means either issuing
a LOGIN LOCAL LOOP PORT mailbox command, or by issuing a LIP. I've elected
to issue a LIP because this has a better chance of waking up the disk which
clearly just crashed and burned.

These should not occur at all. If they do, they should be darned rare.

b894188248 Support for f/w crash dumps (2200 && 23XX).
If you want QLogic to look at a potential f/w problem for FC cards, you really
have to provide them info in the format they expect. This involves dumping
a lot of hardware registers (> 300 16 bit registers) and a lot of SRAM
(> 128KB minimum). Thus all of this code is #ifdef protected which will
become an option so that the memory allocation of where to dump the crash
image is pretty expensive. It's worth it if you have a reproducible problem
because they have some tools that can tell them, given the f/w version,
the precise state of everything.

75c1e828c0 + A variety of 23XX changes:
disable MWI on 2300

	based on function code, set an 'isp_port' for the 2312- it's a
	separate instance, but the NVRAM is shared, and the second port's
	NVRAM is at offset 256.

+ Enable RIO operation for LVD SCSI cards. This makes a *big* difference
as even under reasonable load we get batched completions of about 30
commands at a time on, say, an ISP1080.

+ Do 'continuation' mailbox commands- this allows us to specify a work
area within the softc and 'continue' repeated mailbox commands. This is
more or less on an ad hoc basis and is currently only used for firmware
loading (which f/w now loads substantially faster becuase the calling
thread is only woken when all the f/w words are loaded- not for each
one of the 40000 f/w words that gets loaded).

+ If we're about to return from isp_intr with a 'bogus interrupt' indication,
and we're not a 23XX card, check to see whether the semaphore register is
currently *2* (not *1* as it should be) and whether there's an async completion
sitting in outgoing mailbox0. This seems to capture cases of lost fast posting
and RIO interrupts that the 12160 && 1080 have been known to pump out under
extreme load (extreme, as in > 250 active commands).

+ FC_SCRATCH_ACQUIRE/FC_SCRATCH_RELEASE macros.

2903b27203 Implement REDUCED INTERRUPT OPERATION usage form FC cards- this allows the
firmware to delay completion of commands so that it can attempt to batch
a bunch of completions at once- either returning 16 bit handles in mailbox
registers, or in a resposne queue entry that has a whole wad of 16 bit handles.

Distinguish between 2300 and 2312 chipsets- if only because the revisions
on the chips have different meanings.

Add more instrumentation plus ISP_GET_STATS and ISP_CLR_STATS ioctls.
Run up the maximum number of response queue entities we'll look at
per interrupt.

If we haven't set HBA role yet, always return success from isp_fc_runstate.

c748b5e634 Explicitly decode GetAllNext SNS Response back *as*
a GetAllNext response. Otherwise, we won't unswizzle
it correctly. This was found on linux/PPC.

This mandated creating another inline: isp_get_gan_response.

4fd13c1ba2 Major restructuring for swizzling to the request queue and unswizzling from
the response queue. Instead of the ad hoc ISP_SWIZZLE_REQUEST, we now have
a complete set of inline functions in isp_inline.h. Each platform is
responsible for providing just one of a set of ISP_IOX_{GET,PUT}{8,16,32}
macros.

The reason this needs to be done is that we need to have a single set of
functions that will work correctly on multiple architectures for both little
and big endian machines. It also needs to work correctly in the case that
we have the request or response queues in memory that has to be treated
specially (e.g., have ddi_dma_sync called on it for Solaris after we update
it or before we read from it). It also has to handle the SBus cards (for
platforms that have them) which, while on a Big Endian machine, do *not*
require *most* of the request/response queue entry fields to be swizzled
or unswizzled.

One thing that falls out of this is that we no longer build requests in the
request queue itself. Instead, we build the request locally (e.g., on the
stack) and then as part of the swizzling operation, copy it to the request
queue entry we've allocated. I thought long and hard about whether this was
too expensive a change to make as it in a lot of cases requires an extra
copy. On balance, the flexbility is worth it. With any luck, the entry that
we build locally stays in a processor writeback cache (after all, it's only
64 bytes) so that the cost of actually flushing it to the memory area that is
the shared queue with the PCI device is not all that expensive. We may examine
this again and try to get clever in the future to try and avoid copies.

Another change that falls out of this is that MEMORYBARRIER should be taken
a lot more seriously. The macro ISP_ADD_REQUEST does a MEMORYBARRIER on the
entry being added. But there had been many other places this had been missing.
It's now very important that it be done.

Additional changes:

Fix a longstanding buglet of sorts. When we get an entry via isp_getrqentry,
the iptr value that gets returned is the value we intend to eventually plug
into the ISP registers as the entry *one past* the last one we've written-
*not* the current entry we're updating. All along we've been calling sync
functions on the wrong index value. Argh. The 'fix' here is to rename all
'iptr' variables as 'nxti' to remember that this is the 'next' pointer-
not the current pointer.

Devote a single bit to mboxbsy- and set aside bits for output mbox registers
that we need to pick up- we can have at least one command which does not
have any defined output registers (MBOX_EXECUTE_FIRMWARE).

181640a81c Clarify issues about whether we have SCCLUN (65535 luns) or non-SCCLUN (16
luns) firmware for the Fibre Channel cards.

We used to assume that if we didn't download firmware, we couldn't know
what the firmware capability with respect to SCCLUNs is- and it's important
because the lun field changes in the request queue entry based upon which
firmware it is.

At any rate, we *do* get back firmware attributes in mailbox register 6
when we do ABOUT FIRMWARE for all 2200/2300 cards- and for 2100 cards
with at least 1.17.0 firmware. So- we now assume non-SCCLUN behaviour
for 2100 cards with firmware < 1.17.0- and we check the firmware attributes
for other cards (loaded firmware or not).

This also allows us to get rid of the crappy test of isp_maxluns > 16-
we simply can check firmware attributes for SCCLUN behaviour.

This required an 'oops' fix to the outgoing mailbox count field for
ABOUT FIRMWARE for FC cards.

Also- while here, hardwire firmware revisions for loaded code for SBus
cards. Apparently the 1.35 or 1.37 f/w we've been loading into isp1000
just doesn't report firmware revisions out to mailbox regs 1, 2 and 3
like everyone else. Grumble. Not that this fix hardly matters for FreeBSD.

761d6b7150 Hmm. Let's try this on for size...
We originally had it such that if the connection topology was FL-loop
(public loop), we never looked at any local loop addresses. The reason
for not doing that was fear or concern that we'd see the same local
loop disks reflected from the name server and we'd attach them twice.

However, when I recently hooked up a JBOD and a system to an ANCOR SA-8
switch, the disks did *not* show up on the fabric. So at least the
ANCOR is screening those disks from appearing on the fabric. Now, it's
possible this is a 'feature' of the ANCOR. When I get a chance, I'll
check the Brocade (it's hard to do this on a low budget).

In any case, if they *do* also show up on the fabric, we should
simply elect to not log into them because we already have an
entry for the local loop. There is relatively unexercised code
just for this case.

5d57194434 Spring MegaChange #1.
----

Make a device for each ISP- really usable only with devfs and add an ioctl
entry point (this can be used to (re)set debug levels, reset the HBA,
rescan the fabric, issue lips, etc).

----

Add in a kernel thread for Fibre Channel cards. The purpose of this
thread is to be woken up to clean up after Fibre Channel events
block things.  Basically, any FC event that casts doubt on the
location or identify of FC devices blocks the queues. When, and
if, we get the PORT DATABASE CHANGED or NAME SERVER DATABASE CHANGED
async event, we activate the kthread which will then, in full thread
context, re-evaluate the local loop and/or the fabric. When it's
satisfied that things are stable, it can then release the blocked
queues and let commands flow again.

The prior mechanism was a lazy evaluation. That is, the next command
to come down the pipe after change events would pay the full price
for re-evaluation. And if this was done off of a softcall, it really
could hang up the system.

These changes brings the FreeBSD port more in line with the Solaris,
Linux and NetBSD ports. It also, more importantly, gets us being
more proactive about topology changes which could then be reflected
upwards to CAM so that the periph driver can be informed sooner
rather than later when things arrive or depart.

---

Add in the (correct) usage of locking macros- we now have lock transition
macros which allow us to transition from holding the CAM lock (Giant)
and grabbing the softc lock and vice versa. Switch over to having this
HBA do real locking. Some folks claim this won't be a win. They're right.
But you have to start somewhere, and this will begin to teach us how
to DTRT for HBAs, etc.

and Loop Reset as async events that each platform will handle.

5f5aafe1fc Switch to using 16 bit handles instead of 32 bit handles.
This is a pretty invasive change, but there are three good
reasons to do this:

1. We'll never have > 16 bits of handle.
2. We can (eventually) enable the RIO (Reduced Interrupt Operation)
bits which return multiple completing 16 bit handles in mailbox
registers.
3. The !)$*)$*~)@$*~)$* Qlogic target mode for parallel SCSI spec
changed such that at_reserved (which was 32 bits) was split into
two pieces- and one of which was a 16 bit handle id that functions
like the at_rxid for Fibre Channel (a tag for the f/w to correlate
CTIOs with a particular command). Since we had to muck with that
and this changed the whole handler architecture, we might as well...

Propagate new at_handle on through int ct_fwhandle. Follow
implications of changing to 16 bit handles.

These above changes at least get Qlogic 1040 cards working in target
mode again. 1080/12160 cards don't work yet.

As a consequence- change ICBOPT_USE_PORTNAME to the
define ICBOPT_BOTH_WWNS- makes more sense.

ISP_DUMPREGS if we get a f/w crash. Add ISPCTL_RUN_MBOXCMD

directly) and add a ISPASYNC_UNHANDLED_RESPONSE hook so

for Fibre Channel if we got sense data- the !*$)!*$)~*$)*$ Qlogic
f/w doesn't do so. Add ISPCTL_SCAN_FABRIC, ISPCTL_SCAN_LOOP, ISPCTL_SEND_LIP,
and ISPCTL_GET_POSMAP isp_control functions. Correctly send async notifications
upstream for changes in the name server, changes in the port database, and
f/w crashes. Correctly set topology when we get a ASYNC_PTPMODE event.

Major stuff:
Quite massively redo how we handle Loop events- we've now added several
intermediate states between LOOP_PDB_RCVD and LOOP_READY. This allows us
a lot finer control about how we scan fabric, whether we go further
than scanning fabric, how we look at the local loop, and whether we
merge entries at the level or not. This is the next to last step for
moving managing loop state out of the core module entirely (whereupon
loop && fabric events will simply freeze the command queue and a thread
will run to figure out what's changed and *it* will re-enable the queu).
This fine amount of control also gets us closer to having an external
policy engine decide which fabric devices we really want to log into.

6677e7f89e When resetting the Qlogic 2X00 units, reset the FPM (Fibre Protocol
Module) and FBM (Fibre Buffer Modules). Also remember to clear the
semaphore registers. Tell the RISC processor to not halt on FPM
parity errors.

Throw out the ISP_CFG_NOINIT silliness and instead go to the use of
adapter 'roles' to see whether one completes initialization or not
(mostly for Fibre Channel). The ultimate intent, btw, of all of this
is to have a warm standby adapter for failover reasons.  Because
we do roles now, setting of Target Capable Class 3 service parameters
in the ICB for the 2x00 cards reflects from role. Also, in isp_start,
if we're not supporting an initiator role, we bounce outgoing commands
with a Selection Timeout error. Also clean out the TOGGLE_TMODE
goop for FC- there is no toggling of target mode like there is
for parallel SCSI cards.

Do more cleanup with respect to using target ids 0..125 in F-port
topologies. Also keep track of things which *were* fabric devices
so that when you rescan the fabric you can notify the outer layers
when fabric devices go away.

Only force a LOGOUT for fabric devices if they're still logged in
(i.e., you cat their Port Database entry. Clean up the Get All Next
scanning.

Finally, use a new tag in the softc to store the opcode for the
last mailbox command used so we can report which opcode timed
out.

d0d5832ac7 Major whacking for core version 2.0. A major motivator for 2.0 and these
changes is that there's now a Solaris port of this driver, so some things
in the core version had to change (not much, but some).

In order, from the top.....:

A lot of error strings are gathered in one place at the head of the file.
This caused me to rewrite them to look consistent (with respect to
things like 'Port 0x%' and 'Target %d' and 'Loop ID 0x%x'.

The major mailbox function, isp_mboxcmd, now takes a third argument,
which is a mask that selectively says whether mailbox command failures
will be logged. This will substantially reduce a lot of spurious noise
from the driver.

At the first run through isp_reset we used to try and get the current
running firmware's revision by issuing a mailbox command. This would
invariably fail on alpha's with anything but a Qlogic 1040 since SRM
doesn't *start* the f/w on these cards. Instead, we now see whether we're
sitting ROM state before trying to get a running BIOS loaded f/w version.

All CFGPRINTF/PRINTF/IDPRINTF macros have been replaced with calls to
isp_prt. There are seperate print levels that can be independently
set (see ispvar.h), which include debugging, etc.

All SYS_DELAY macros are now USEC_DELAY macros. RQUEST_QUEUE_LEN and
RESULT_QUEUE_LEN now take ispsoftc as a parameter- the Fibre Channel
cards and the Ultra2/Ultra3 cards can have 16 bit request queue entry
indices, so we can make a 1024 entry index for them instead of the
256 entries we've had until now.

A major change it to fix isp_fclink_test to actually only wait the
delay of time specified in the microsecond argument being passed.
The problem has always been that a call to isp_mboxcmd to get he
current firmware state takes an unknown (sometimes long) amount of
time- this is if the firmware is busy doing PLOGIs while we ask
it what's up. So, up until now, the usdelay argument has been
a joke. The net effect has been that if you boot without being plugged
into a good loop or into a switch, you hang. Massively annonying, and
hard to fix because the actual time delta was impossible to know
from just guessing. Now, using the new GET_NANOTIME macros, a precise
and measured amount of USEC_DELAY calls are done so that only the
specified usecdelay is allowed to pass. This means that if the initial
startup of the firmware if followed by a call from isp_freebsd.c:isp_attach
to isp_control(isp, ISP_FCLINK_TEST, &tdelay) where tdelay is 2 * 1000000,
no more than two seconds will actually elapse before we leave concluding
that the cable is unhooked. Jeez. About time....

Change the ispscsicmd entry point to isp_start, and the XS_CMD_DONE
macro to a call to the platform supplied isp_done (sane naming).

Limit our size of request queue completions we'll look at at interrupt
time. Since we've increased the size of the Request Queue (and the
size of the Response Queue proportionally), let's not create an
interrupt stack overflow by having to keep a max completion list
(forw links are not an option because this is common code with
some platforms that don't have link space in their XS_T structures).
A limit of 32 is not unreasonable- I doubt there'd be even this many
request queue completions at a time- remember, most boards now use
fast posting for normal command completion instead of filling out
response queue entries.

In the isp_mboxcmd cleanup, also create an array of command
names so that "ABOUT FIRMWARE" can be printed instead of "CMD #8".

Remove the isp_lostcmd function- it's been deprecated for a while.
Remove isp_dumpregs- the ISP_DUMPREGS goes to the specific bus
register dump fucntion.

D'oh! Protect calls to isp_pdb_sync and isp_fclink_state with IS_FC
macros.

Completely redo mailbox command routine (in preparation to make this
possibly wait rather than poll for completion).

Make a major attempt to solve the 'lost interrupt' problem

1. Problem

The Qlogic cards would appear to 'lose' interrupts, i.e., a legitimate
regular SCSI command placed on the request queue would never complete
and the watchdog routine in the driver would eventually wakeup and
catch it. This would typically only happen on Alphas, although a
couple folks with 700MHz Intel platforms have also seen this.

For a long time I thought it was a foulup with f/w negotiations of
SYNC and/or WIDE as it always seemed to happen right after the
platform it was running on had done a SET TARGET PARAMETERS mailbox
command to (re)enable sync && wide (after initially forcing
ASYNC/NARROW at startup). However, occasionally, the same thing
would also occur for the Fibre Channel cards as well (which, ahem,
have no SET TARGET PARAMETERS for transfer mode).

After finally putting in a better set of watchdog routines for the
platforms for this driver, it seemed to be the case that the command
in question (usually a READ CAPACITY) just had up and died- the
watchdog routine would catch it after ~10 seconds. For some platforms
(NetBSD/OpenBSD)- an ABORT COMMAND mailbox command was sent (which
would always fail- indicating that the f/w denied knowledge of this
command, i.e., the f/w thought it was a done command). In any case,
retrying the command worked. But this whole problem needed to be
really fixed.

2. A False Step That Went in The Right Direction

The mailbox code was completely rewritten to no longer try and grab
the mailbox semaphore register and to try and 'by hand' complete
async fast posting completions. It was also rewritten to now have
separate in && out bitpatterns for registers to load to start and
retrieve to complete. This means that isp_intr now handles mailbox
completions.

This substantially simplifies the mailbox handling code, and carries
things 90% toward getting this to be a non-polled routine for this
driver.

This did not solve the problem, though.

3. Register Debouncing

I saw some comments in some errata sheets and some notes in a Qlogic
produced Linux driver (for the Qlogic 2100) that seemed to indicate
that debouncing of reads of the mailbox registers might be needed,
so I added this.  This did not affect the problem. In fact, it made
the problem worse for non-2100 cards.

5. Interrupt masking/unmasking

The driver *used* to do a substantial amount of masking/unmasking
of the interrupt control register. This was done to make sure that
the core common code could just assume it would never get pre-empted.

This apparently substantially contributed to the lost interrupt
problem.  The rewrite of the ICR (Interrupt Control Register),
which is a separate register from the ISR (Interrupt Status Register)
should not have caused any change to interrupt assertions pending.
The manual does not state that it will, and the register layout
seems to imply that the ICR is just an active route gate. We only
enable PCI Interrupts and RISC Interrupts- this should mean that
when the f/w asserts a RISC interrupt and (and the ICR allows RISC
Interrupts) and we have PCI Interrupts enabled, we should get a
PCI interrupt. Apparently this is a latch- not a signal route.

Removing this got rid of *most* but not all, lost interrupts.

5. Watchdog Smartening

I made sure that the watchdog routine would catch cases where the
Qlogic's ISR showed an interrupt assertion. The watchdog routine
now calls the interrupt service routine if it sees this. Some
additional internal state flags were added so that the watchdog
routine could then know whether the command it was in the middle
of burying (because we had time it out) was in fact completed by
the interrupt service routine.

6. Occasional Constipation Of Commands..

In running some very strenous high IOPs tests (generating about
11000 interrupts/second across one Qlogic 1040, one Qlogic 1080
and one Qlogic 2200 on an Alpha PC164), I found that I would get
occasional but regular 'watchdog timeouts' on both the 1080 and
the 2100 cards. This is under FreeBSD, and the watchdog timeout
routine just marks the command in error and retries it.

Invariably, right after this 'watchdog timeout' error, I'd get a
command completion for the command that I had thought timed out.
That is, I'd get a command completion, but the handle returned by
the firmware mapped to no current command. The frequency of this
problem is low under such a load- it would usually take an 30
minutes per 'lost' interrupt.

I doubled the timeout for commands to see if it just was an edge
case of waiting too short a period. This has no effect.

I gathered and printed out microtimes for the watchdog completed
command and the completion that couldn't find a command- it was
always the case that the order of occurrence was "timeout, completion"
separated by a time on the order of 100 to 150 ms.

This caused me to consider 'firmware constipation' as to be a
possible culprit. That is, resubmission of a command to the device
that had suffered a watchdog timeout seemed to cause the presumed
dead command to show back up.

I added code in the watchdog routine that, when first entered for
the command, marks the command with a flag, reissues a local timeout
call for one second later, but also then issues a MARKER Request
Queue entry to the Qlogic f/w. A MARKER entry is used typically
after a Bus Reset to cause the f/w to get synchronized with respect
to either a Bus, a Nexus or a Target.

Since I've added this code, I always now see the occasional watchdog
timeout, but the command that was about to be terminated always
now seems to be completed after the MARKER entry is issued (and
before the timeout extension fires, which would come back and
*really* terminate the command).
