This change allows to decode respective functions in isp(4) in target mode
and pass them through CAM to CTL. Unfortunately neither CAM nor isp(4)
support returning response info for those task management functions now.
On the other side I just have no initiator to test this functionality.
MISC CHANGES
Add a new async event- ISP_TARGET_NOTIFY_ACK, that will guarantee
eventual delivery of a NOTIFY ACK. This is tons better than just
ignoring the return from isp_notify_ack and hoping for the best.
Clean up the lower level lun enable code to be a bit more sensible.
Fix a botch in isp_endcmd which was messing up the sense data.
Fix notify ack for SRR to use a sensible error code in the case
of a reject.
Clean up and make clear what kind of firmware we've loaded and
what capabilities it has.
-----------
FULL (252 byte) SENSE DATA
In CTIOs for the ISP, there's only a limimted amount of space
to load SENSE DATA for associated CHECK CONDITIONS (24 or 26
bytes). This makes it difficult to send full SENSE DATA that can
be up to 252 bytes.
Implement MODE 2 responses which have us build the FCP Response
in system memory which the ISP will put onto the wire directly.
On the initiator side, the same problem occurs in that a command
status response only has a limited amount of space for SENSE DATA.
This data is supplemented by status continuation responses that
the ISP pushes onto the response queue after the status response.
We now pull them all together so that full sense data can be
returned to the periph driver.
This is supported on 23XX, 24XX and 25XX cards.
This is also preparation for doing >16 byte CDBs.
-----------
FC TAPE
Implement full FC-TAPE on both initiator and target mode side. This
capability is driven by firmware loaded, board type, board NVRAM
settings, or hint configuration options to enable or disable. This
is supported for 23XX, 24XX and 25XX cards.
On the initiator side, we pretty much just have to generate a command
reference number for each command we send out. This is FCP-4 compliant
in that we do this per ITL nexus to generate the allowed 1 thru 255
CRN.
In order to support the target side of FC-TAPE, we now pay attention
to more of the PRLI word 3 parameters which will tell us whether
an initiator wants confirmed responses. While we're at it, we'll
pay attention to the initiator view too and report it.
On sending back CTIOs, we will notice whether the initiator wants
confirmed responses and we'll set up flags to do so.
If a response or data frame is lost the initiator sends us an SRR
(Sequence Retransmit Request) ELS which shows up as an SRR notify
and all outstanding CTIOs are nuked with SRR Received status. The
SRR notify contains the offset that the initiator wants us to restart
the data transfer from or to retransmit the response frame.
If the ISP driver still has the CCB around for which the data segment
or response applies, it will retransmit.
However, we typically don't know about a lost data frame until we
send the FCP Response and the initiator totes up counters for data
moved and notices missing segments. In this case we've already
completed the data CCBs already and sent themn back up to the periph
driver. Because there's no really clean mechanism yet in CAM to
handle this, a hack has been put into place to complete the CTIO
CCB with the CAM_MESSAGE_RECV status which will have a MODIFY DATA
POINTER extended message in it. The internal ISP target groks this
and ctl(8) will be modified to deal with this as well.
At any rate, the data is retransmitted and an an FCP response is
sent. The whole point here is to successfully complete a command
so that you don't have to depend on ULP (SCSI) to have to recover,
which in the case of tape is not really possible (hence the name
FC-TAPE).

MFC after: 1 month
Add a maximum response length for FCP RSPNS IUs.
Clarify some of the FC option words for setting parameters
and try and disable automatic PRLI when in target mode- this
should correct some cases of N-port topologies with 23XX cards
where we put out an illegal PRLI (in target mode only we're
not supposed to put out a PRLI).
firmware loading bugs.
Target mode support has received some serious attention to make it
more usable and stable.
Some backward compatible additions to CAM have been made that make
target mode async events easier to deal with have also been put
into place.
Further refinement and better support for NP-IV (N-port Virtualization)
is now in place.
Code for release prior to RELENG_7 has been stripped away for code clarity.

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).
