insertion point into the start queue looking for entries to remove and
mark them with the 'skip' address, recording the entry furthest from the
insertion point that needs to be removed. We then go through a second
loop starting at the furthest entry to be removed and compress the start
queue. The old algorithm started at (old insert point + 1) and wrapped
through the whole queue which would end up moving the start position in
the queue out from under the nose of the scrip processor.
full condition or other error which requires us to purge the
controller's start queue of transactions for a particular device.
We were relying on the NCR CCB's program address to cause the
script engine to skip to the next entry in the queue even though
the CCB is freed (and its program address switched to the idle
loop) by this action. We now set the address in the start queue
to be the "skip" function directly.
in ddb) which I broke by changing %8[l]x to %8p. Hacked the central
printf routine to not add an "0x" prefix for %p formats if the field
width is nonzero. The tables are still horribly misformatted on
64-bit machines.
Use %p instead of %8p to print pointers when the field width isn't
important.
hidden). Now "ticks" are used, which are 4 byte, not 8 byte in size.
The size mismatch did not matter due to sufficient padding at the end
of the structure that holds time stamps (there is an unused member).
The fix suggested by Bruce Evans used "sizeof (ticks_t)", but I prefer
to use "sizeof ticks", and didn't seem to object in his last mail on
this topic.

FreeBSD/alpha. The most significant item is to change the command
argument to ioctl functions from int to u_long. This change brings us
inline with various other BSD versions. Driver writers may like to
use (__FreeBSD_version == 300003) to detect this change.
The prototype FreeBSD/alpha machdep will follow in a couple of days
time.
"time" wasn't a atomic variable, so splfoo() protection were needed
around any access to it, unless you just wanted the seconds part.
Most uses of time.tv_sec now uses the new variable time_second instead.
gettime() changed to getmicrotime(0.
Remove a couple of unneeded splfoo() protections, the new getmicrotime()
is atomic, (until Bruce sets a breakpoint in it).
A couple of places needed random data, so use read_random() instead
of mucking about with time which isn't random.
Add a new nfs_curusec() function.
Mark a couple of bogosities involving the now disappeard time variable.
Update ffs_update() to avoid the weird "== &time" checks, by fixing the
one remaining call that passwd &time as args.
Change profiling in ncr.c to use ticks instead of time. Resolution is
the same.
Add new function "tvtohz()" to avoid the bogus "splfoo(), add time, call
hzto() which subtracts time" sequences.

number of tags (NCR_SCSI_DFLT_TAGS), which is 0 in the FAILSAFE case.
This should fix the incompatibility between kernel and ncrcontrol,
which is the result of FAILSAFE being defined in the kernel config
file, invisible to the build of ncrcontrol. (See kern/5133, which
should be fixed by this change.)
could cause a solid system lockup in the driver attach:
These chips do not abort an access to the internal SRAM, when
the driver set the software reset bit in the istat register. But
the chip will never acknowledge the requested PCI bus transfer
in the situation, causing an infinite wait and a lockout of other
bus-masters.
The problem has been reported for rev 0x11 of the 53c825a and
rev 0x01 of the 53c875.
Revisions 0x13 of the 53c825a and 0x03 of the 53c875 are known
to support SRAM accesses, even in the software reset state.
- Do not malloc SCRIPTS memory for those parts of the microcode that
are to be loaded into the on-chip SRAM of the 53c825a or 875 ...
- Modify ncr_chip_lookup to make adding new entries easier.
- Disable use of on-chip SRAM for the 53c825 rev 0x10 to 0x12, since
there seems to be a problem with rev 0x11, while 0x13 is known to
work. (Tested by Chuck Robey <chuckr@glue.umd.edu>).
This code will be merged into 2.2-stable after a few more days of
testing in -current.

used.
Remove code that was conditional on NEW_SCSICONF not being defined. This
was temporary code, that at a time got excluded correctly, until the new
scsiconf became the default, and NEW_SCSICONF was no longer specified.
Add support for quirks defined in scsiconf.c. For now only the HP3724/5

Removed NetBSD-related TIMEOUT macro. NetBSD uses the same BSD4.4Lite
timeout interface as FreeBSD. As a concession to portability, declare
the timeout function without using the FreeBSD timeout_t typedef.

just forces atomicicity without fixing precision or efficiency bugs.
Simplified some related valid accesses by using the central function.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Tekram DC390W/U/F, whose config EEPROM can now be dumped, if the kernel

Other changes:
- add brackets to expansion of OUTB/W/L macro arguments.
- remove unused NCB structure element ns_async
- support sync. SCSI offset of 16 (instead of only 8) on 825A and 875
- correctly identify 53c810A and 53c825A chips
- preserve SCSI BIOS settings of PCI performance options
- remove (already disabled) support for NCR reset because of command timeout
- reverse order of reading of SCSI and DMA specific interrupt cause registers
- add definition of Tekram config EEPROM contents (not currently used)
I've added an installation from optical disk drive facility.
This enables FreeBSD to be installed from an optical disk, which

This follows more closely the suggestions in the latest NCR docs, and has
been running on my system for weeks with no problem. It does improve the
quality of diagnostic messages and does allow to better understand the
sequence of events in case of an error.
This should go into 2.2 and 2.1.6.
Still no support for Ultra-SCSI and other new features, but the code
should now correctly initialize the clock pre-scaler (based on freqency
measurement results, if necessary).
Fix support of 16 targets for WIDE SCSI.
Disable bus reset in case no progress is made for too long ("ncr dead"
message), which did not work too well with scanners and other slow devices.
