Have tagged commands look to see if a target is "busy" with a non tagged

people tend to assume their devices won't work if they see this

no ports are active, provided there are no polled ports and no
`LOSESOUTINTS' ports. Do a little more in the interrupt handler instead.
This is a little less efficient if there are are many active ports but
a little more efficient otherwise. Polled ports are ones with no irq
specified (as before). `LOSESOUTINTS' ports are ones with 0x08 set in
their config flags. Unless this flag is set, it will now take up to one

1) If a target initiated a sync negotiation with us and happened to chose a
value above 15, the old code inadvertantly truncated it with an "& 0x0f".
If the periferal picked something really bad like 0x32, you'd end up with
an offset of 2 which would hang the drive since it didn't expect to ever
get something so low. We now do a MIN(maxoffset, given_offset).
2) In the case of Wide cards, we were turning on sync transfers after a
sucessfull wide negotiation. Now we leave the offset alone in the per
target scratch space (which implies asyncronous transfers since we initialize
it that way) until a syncronous negotation occurs.
3) We were advertizing a max offset of 15 instead of 8 for wide devices.
4) If the upper level SCSI code sent down a "SCSI_RESET", it would hang the
system because we would end up sending a null command to the sequencer. Now
we handle SCSI_RESET correctly by having the sequencer interrupt us when it
is about to fill the message buffer so that we can fill it in ourselves.
The sequencer will also "simulate" a command complete for these "message only"
SCBs so that the kernel driver can finish up properly. The cdplay utility
will send a "SCSI_REST" to the cdplayer if you use the reset command.
5) The code that handles SCSIINTs was broken in that if more than one type
of error was true at once, we'd do outbs without the card being paused.
The else clause after the busfree case was also an accident waiting to
happen. I've now turned this into an if, else if, else type of thing, since
in most cases when we handle one type of error, it should be okay to ignore
the rest (ie if we have a SELTO, who cares if there was a parity error on
the transaction?), but the section should really be rewritten after 2.0.5.
This fix was the least obtrusive way to patch the problem.
6) Only tag either SDTR or WDTR negotiation on an SCB. The real problem is
that I don't account for the case when an SCB that is tagged to do a particular
type of negotiation completes or SELTOs (selection timeout) without the
negotiation taking place, so the accounting of sdtrpending and wdtrpending
gets screwed up. In the wide case, if we tag it to do both wdtr and sdtr,
it only performs wdtr (since wdtr must occur first and we spread out the
negotiation over two commands) so we always have sdtrpending set for that
target and we never do a real SDTR. I fill properly fix the accounting
after 2.0.5 goes out the door, but this works (as confirmed by Dan) on
wide targets.
Other stuff that is also included:
1) Don't do a bzero when recycling SCBs. The only thing that must explicitly
be set to zero is the scb control byte which is done in ahc_get_scb. We also
need to set the SG_list_pointer and SG_list_count to 0 for commands that do
not transfer data.
2) Mask the interrupt type printout for the aic7870 case. The bit we were
using to determine interrupt type is only valid for the aic7770.

the 802.3 frames generated by the DC21040 (which does automatic padding
of less-than-minimum frames) and the frames generated by the 'ed'
driver, I've found that there is indeed a bug in the size of "ETHER_MIN_LEN"
as reported by several people, John Hay being the most recent. The driver
was actually setting the length to 6+6+2+50 (64 bytes), which when adding
in the CRC (which is automatically appended to the frame and not included
in the length), the minimum frame is 4 bytes larger than it is supposed to
be. All of this is confirmed by tcpdump showing 50 bytes of data for
minimum frames from the 'ed' cards and 46 bytes from 'de' cards. This
analysis has also revealed that there is garbage in the un-filled in
portion at the end of the minimum frames from the 'ed' driver; I don't
plan to fix this.

the adapter's selections. Many fast periferals were getting upset when
the sequencer decided to rearbitrate after the device had already won
arbitration. This also forced the creation of a list threaded through
the SCBs (since we don't have enough space anywhere else) of commands that
are awaiting reselection. This list is run down before any new transactions
from the input queue are allowed. The list is appened to whenever we begin
a selection (simple case since the selecting device is always at the head)
and by the kernel driver whenever a request sense occurs. In the common
case, the list is only one element long, but when a reselection wins out
over a selection and that reselection generates a request sense, the
outstanding selection required for the retreval of the sense code grows
the list. On machines with many targets, this might cause the list to grow
large, so this solution, which will allow up to the maximum number of I/O
requests capible of the card elements in the list, was chosen. The list
manipulation is trivial and adds three sequencer instructions of overhead
to the selection phase.
This fixes the "target busy" errors from micropolis drives and the bursty
I/O problem when performing I/O between a Quantum Grand Prix and any other
device. I anticipate that this will correct many of the problems that
have been reported with this driver.

- Fix embarassing off by one error in the computation of a 2's
compliment variable. This was most likely the cause of the
many problems reported with the tagged queuing code.
- Handle "MAX_SYNC" as a special case (ie we are the ones starting
the sync negotiation sequence). This was done so that the target
scratch area can be initialed to 0 offset (asyncronous transfers)
safely. The initialization to 0 (was 15) is necessary since in
some cases a Wide negotiation could run into problems if SCSIRATE
was set wrong and we went into data(in/out).
- Trim the DMA routines a little by using some procedures. Net
effect is more functionality with 3 less instructions after this
update.
- Toggle the WIDEODD bit of the DFCNTRL whenever this is not the

but in the Wide configuration ensures that the overlap byte is
