[1] Add the support for the NARK controller which seems a variant of
the i960Rx.
[2] Split up memory regions and other resources in 2 different parts
as long as NARK uses them separately (it is not clear to me
why though as long as there are no more informations available
on this controller). Please note that in all the other cases,
the regions overlaps leaving the default behaviour for all the
other controllers.
[3] Implement a clock daemon responsible for maintain updated the
wall clock time of the controller (run any 30 minutes)*.

* Please note that originally, in the Adaptec driver, the clock daemon
is not implemented with callouts as in our in-tree driver.
Retain the mistake of not updating the devstat API for now.
Spell bioq_disksort() consistently with the remaining bioq_*().
#include <geom/geom_disk.h> where this is more appropriate.
in geom_disk.c.
As a side effect this makes a lot of #include <sys/devicestat.h>
lines not needed and some biofinish() calls can be reduced to
biodone() again.
aac.c:
Re-arrange the interrupt handler to optimize the common case of
the adapter interrupting us because one or more commands are complete,
and do a read across the pci bus to ensure that all posted status
writes are flushed. This should close a race that could cause command
completion interrupts to be lost.
Follow the spec a bit closer when filling out command structures.
Enable the Fast Response feature to eliminate the need for the card
to DMA successfull command completions back into host memory.
Tell the controller how much physical memory we have. Without this
there was a chance that our DMA regions would collide with the
memory window used by the cache on the controller. The result would
be massive data corruption. This seemed to mainly affect systems with
>2GB of memory.
Fix a few whitespace problems.
aac_debug.c:
Add an extra diagnostic when printing out commands.
aac_disk.c:
Add extra sanity checks.
aacreg.h:
Prepare for making this 64-bit clean by reducing the use of enumeration
types in structures.
Many thanks to Justin Gibbs for helping track these down.
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.

problems that we were seeing on our production server. These patches have
been tested for almost 6 months and are a highly recommended MFC candidate.

Add the AAC_DEBUG option to enable debugging in the aac driver.
Correct a race condition in the interrupt handler where the
controller may queue a fib to a response queue after the driver
has serviced the queue but before the interrupt is cleared.
This could leave a completed fib stranded in the response queue
unless another I/O completed and generated another interrupt.

with the driver locking up under load.
- Restructure so that we use a static pool of commands/FIBs, rather than
allocating them in clusters. The cluster allocation just made things
more complicated, and allowed us to waste more memory in peak load
situations.
- Make queueing macros more like my other drivers. This adds queue stats
for free. Add some debugging to take advantage of this.
- Reimplement the periodic timeout scan. Kick the interrupt handler
and the start routine every scan as well, just to be safe. Track busy
commands properly.
- Bring resource cleanup into line with resource allocation. We should
now clean up correctly after a failed probe/unload/etc.
- Try to start new commands when old ones are completed. We weren't doing
this before, which could lead to deadlock when the controller was full.
- Don't try to build a new command if we have found a deferred command.
This could cause us to lose the deferred command.
- Use diskerr() to report I/O errors.
- Don't bail if the AdapterInfo structure is the wrong size. Some variation
seems to be normal. We need to improve our handing of 2.x firmware sets.
- Improve some comments in an attempt to try to make things clearer.
- Restructure to avoid some warnings.
