the modified interface that they use. Changes include:
- Register a different interrupt handler for the new interface. This one is
INTR_MPSAFE, not INTR_FAST, and directly processes completions and AIFs.
- Add an event registration and callback mechanism for the ioctl and CAM
modules can know when a resource shortage clears. This condition was
previously fatal in CAM due to programming oversights.
- Fix locking to play better with newbus.
- Provide access methods for talking to cards with the NEWCOMM interface.
- Fix up the CAM module to be better suited for dealing with newer firmware
on the PERC Si/Di series that requires talking to plain SCSI via aac.
- Add a whole slew of new PCI Id's.
Thanks to Adaptec for providing an initial version of this work and for
answering countless questions about it. There are still some rough edges in
this, but it works well enough to commit and test for now.

enabled. This will likely not fix 2400 systems though as I don't have the
appropriate PCI Id info for them.

only done minimal testing on one of these cards and the firmware folks
have been extremely uncooperative in answering my qeustions about them, so
hopefully they will work ok for everyone.
interrupt handler so that no locks are needed, and schedules the
command completion routine with a taskqueue_fast. This also corrects the
locking in the command thread and removes the need for operation flags.
Simple load tests show that this is now considerably faster than FreeBSD 4.x
in the SMP case when multiple i/o tasks are running.
Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

- Add data structuress for doing 64-bit scatter/gather
- Move busdma tag creations around so that only the parent is
created in aac_pci.c.
- Retrieve the capabilities word from the firmware before setting
up command structures and tags. This allows the driver to decide
whether to do 64-bit commands, and if work-arounds are needed for
systems with >2GB of RAM.
- Only enable the SCSI passthrough if it's enabled in the capabilities
word in the firmware.
This should fix problems with the 2120S and 2200S cards in systems with more
than 2GB of RAM. Full 64-bit support is forthcoming.

biodone() again.

already used a taskqueue for the biodone() processing, so this at least
saves the contesting of Giant in the interrupt handler.

is to modify the busdma api to allow either inclusion ranges or
multiple exclusion ranges, but that debate is for another day.

ever connect a SCSI Cdrom/Tape/Jukebox/Scanner/Printer/kitty-litter-scooper
to your high-end RAID controller. The interface to the arrays is still
via the block interface; this merely provides a way to circumvent the
RAID functionality and access the SCSI buses directly. Note that for
somewhat obvious reasons, hard drives are not exposed to the da driver
through this interface, though you can still talk to them via the pass
driver. Be the first on your block to low-level format unsuspecting
drives that are part of an array!
To enable this, add the 'aacp' device to your kernel config.

released management apps.
1. Implement poll(). This will check for queued aif's so that a
subsequent ioctl call to retrieve the next aif will not block.
2. Don't catch signals when sleeping on a fib sent from userland. This
causes a race and panic due to the pthread context switcher waking
up the tsleep at inopportune times.
3. Fix some whitespace nits.

1. Correctly handle commands initiated by the adapter. These commands
are defered to a kthread responsible for their processing, then are
properly returned to the controller.
2. Add/remove disk devices when notified by the card that a container was
created/deleted/offline.
3. Implement crashdump functionality.
4. Support all ioctls needed for the management CLI to work. The linux
version of this app can be found at the Dell or HP website. A native
version will be forthcoming.
