Removed the requirement for a particular subvendor/subproduct in
rev.1.26 (VScom PCI-800L card). While the BARs, etc., may depend on
the sub-ids, this is not known to be so, and I think it is better to
guess that they don't. The decision to check sub-id checks in this
file is apparently random; for VScom cards they were checked in 3 of
8 cases.

there so there are no ABI changes);
+ replace 5 redefinitions of the IPF2AC macro with one in if_arp.h
Eventually (but before freezing the ABI) we need to get rid of
struct arpcom (initially with the help of some smart #defines
to avoid having to touch each and every driver, see below).
Apart from the struct ifnet, struct arpcom now only stores a copy
of the MAC address (ac_enaddr, but we already have another copy in
the struct ifnet -- if_addrhead), and a netgraph-specific field
which is _always_ accessed through the ifp, so it might well go
into the struct ifnet too (where, besides, there is already an entry
for AF_NETGRAPH data...)
Too bad ac_enaddr is widely referenced by all drivers. But
this can be fixed as follows:
#define ac_enaddr ac_if.the_original_ac_enaddr_in_struct_ifnet
(note that the right hand side would likely be a pointer rather than
the base address of an array.)
+ replace 0 with NULL where appropriate (not complete)
+ remove register declaration while there
+ add argument names to function prototypes to have a better idea of
what they are used for
+ add 'const' qualifiers in 3 places
Nehemiah chip, but the work is all done in hardware.
There are three opportunities to add other entropy; the Data
Buffer, the Cipher's IV and the Cipher's key. A future commit
will exploit these opportunities.
+ remove a partly incorrect comment that i introduced in the last commit;
+ deal with the correct part of the above comment by cleaning up the
updates of 'info' -- rti_addrs needd not to be updated,
rti_info[RTAX_IFP] can be set once outside the loop.
While at it, correct a few misspelling of NULL as 0, but there are
way too many in this file, and i did not want to clutter the
important part of this commit.
Logical volumes on these devices show up as LUNs behind another
controller (also known as proxy controller). In order to issue
firmware commands for a volume on a proxy controller, they must be
targeted at the address of the proxy controller it is attached to,
not the Host/PCI controller.
A proxy controller is defined as a device listed in the INQUIRY
PHYSICAL LUNS command who's L2 and L3 SCSI addresses are zero. The
corresponding address returned defines which "bus" the controller
lives on and we use this to create a virtual CAM bus.
A logical volume's addresses first byte defines the logical drive
number. The second byte defines the bus that it is attached to
which corresponds to the BUS of the proxy controller's found or the
Host/PCI controller.
Change event notification to be handled in its own kernel thread.
This is needed since some events may require the driver to sleep
on some operations and this cannot be done during interrupt context.
With this change, it is now possible to create and destroy logical
volumes from FreeBSD, but it requires a native application to
construct the proper firmware commands which is not publicly
available.
Special thanks to John Cagle @ HP for providing remote access to
all the hardware and beating on the storage engineers at HP to
answer my questions.
