From 4bd6d7f35661a32ed50b72f02b684f894feeaa48 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Wilcox Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2007 08:41:03 -0600 Subject: [SCSI] advansys: Move documentation to Documentation/scsi The 700+-line comment at the top of the advansys driver fits more comfortably in Documentation/scsi. Delete the sections on: - kernels supported - other files modified (obsolete) - source comments (obsolete) - tests to run - release history (that's what a VCS is for) - contacting connectcom (the domain has expired and the phone number is now in use by another organisation) Known problems/fix list is moved down to the section where jejb put his FIXME.

Any + assertions encountered should be reported to the person + responsible for the driver. Assertion statements may proactively + detect problems with the driver and facilitate fixing these + problems. Enabling assertions will add a small overhead to the + execution of the driver. + +2. ADVANSYS_DEBUG - Enable driver debugging (Def: Disabled) + + Enabling this option adds tracing functions to the driver and the + ability to set a driver tracing level at boot time. This option is + very useful for debugging the driver, but it will add to the size + of the driver execution image and add overhead to the execution of + the driver. + + The amount of debugging output can be controlled with the global + variable 'asc_dbglvl'. The higher the number the more output.

Add support for ABP-940U (PCI Ultra) adapter. - 2. Add support for IRQ sharing by setting the IRQF_SHARED flag for - request_irq and supplying a dev_id pointer to both request_irq() - and free_irq(). - 3. In AscSearchIOPortAddr11() restore a call to check_region() which - should be used before I/O port probing. - 4. Fix bug in asc_prt_hex() which resulted in the displaying - the wrong data. - 5. Incorporate miscellaneous Asc Library bug fixes and new microcode. - 6. Change driver versioning to be specific to each Linux sub-level. - 7.

This - will reduce the size of the driver image, eliminate execution - overhead, and remove unneeded symbols from the kernel symbol - space that were previously added by the driver. - 4. Add new compile-time option ADVANSYS_ASSERT for assertion - code that used to be defined within ADVANSYS_DEBUG. This - option is enabled by default. - - 2.8 (5/26/97): - 1. Change version number to 2.8 to synchronize the Linux driver - version numbering with other AdvanSys drivers. - 2. Reformat source files without tabs to present the same view - of the file to everyone regardless of the editor tab setting - being used. - 3. Add Asc Library bug fixes. - - 3.1A (1/8/98): - 1. Change version number to 3.1 to indicate that support for - Ultra-Wide adapters (ABP-940UW) is included in this release. - 2. Add Asc Library (Narrow Board) bug fixes. - 3. Report an underrun condition with the host status byte set - to DID_UNDERRUN. Currently DID_UNDERRUN is defined to 0 which - causes the underrun condition to be ignored. When Linux defines - its own DID_UNDERRUN the constant defined in this file can be - removed. - 4. Add patch to AscWaitTixISRDone(). - 5. Add support for up to 16 different AdvanSys host adapter SCSI - channels in one system. This allows four cards with four channels - to be used in one system. - - 3.1B (1/9/98): - 1. Handle that PCI register base addresses are not always page - aligned even though ioremap() requires that the address argument - be page aligned. - - 3.1C (1/10/98): - 1. Update latest BIOS version checked for from the /proc file. - 2. Don't set microcode SDTR variable at initialization. Instead - wait until device capabilities have been detected from an Inquiry - command. - - 3.1D (1/21/98): - 1. Improve performance when the driver is compiled as module by - allowing up to 64 scatter-gather elements instead of 8. - - 3.1E (5/1/98): - 1. Set time delay in AscWaitTixISRDone() to 1000 ms. - 2. Include SMP locking changes. - 3. For v2.1.93 and newer kernels use CONFIG_PCI and new PCI BIOS - access functions. - 4. Update board serial number printing. - 5. Try allocating an IRQ both with and without the IRQF_DISABLED - flag set to allow IRQ sharing with drivers that do not set - the IRQF_DISABLED flag. Also display a more descriptive error - message if request_irq() fails. - 6. Update to latest Asc and Adv Libraries. - - 3.2A (7/22/99): - 1. Update Adv Library to 4.16 which includes support for - the ASC38C0800 (Ultra2/LVD) IC. - - 3.2B (8/23/99): - 1. Correct PCI compile time option for v2.1.93 and greater - kernels, advansys_info() string, and debug compile time - option. - 2. Correct DvcSleepMilliSecond() for v2.1.0 and greater - kernels. This caused an LVD detection/BIST problem problem - among other things. - 3. Sort PCI cards by PCI Bus, Slot, Function ascending order - to be consistent with the BIOS. - 4. Update to Asc Library S121 and Adv Library 5.2. - - 3.2C (8/24/99): - 1. Correct PCI card detection bug introduced in 3.2B that - prevented PCI cards from being detected in kernels older - than v2.1.93. - - 3.2D (8/26/99): - 1. Correct /proc device synchronous speed information display. - Also when re-negotiation is pending for a target device - note this condition with an * and footnote. - 2. Correct initialization problem with Ultra-Wide cards that - have a pre-3.2 BIOS. A microcode variable changed locations - in 3.2 and greater BIOSes which caused WDTR to be attempted - erroneously with drives that don't support WDTR. - - 3.2E (8/30/99): - 1. Fix compile error caused by v2.3.13 PCI structure change. - 2. Remove field from ASCEEP_CONFIG that resulted in an EEPROM - checksum error for ISA cards. - 3. Remove ASC_QUEUE_FLOW_CONTROL conditional code. The mid-level - SCSI changes that it depended on were never included in Linux. - - 3.2F (9/3/99): - 1. Handle new initial function code added in v2.3.16 for all - driver versions. - - 3.2G (9/8/99): - 1. Fix PCI board detection in v2.3.13 and greater kernels. - 2.

Add 64-bit address, long support for Alpha and UltraSPARC. - The driver has been verified to work on an Alpha system. - 2. Add partial byte order handling support for Power PC and - other big-endian platforms. This support has not yet been - completed or verified. - 3. For wide boards replace block zeroing of request and - scatter-gather structures with individual field initialization - to improve performance. - 4. Correct and clarify ROM BIOS version detection. - - 3.2I (10/8/99): - 1. Update to Adv Library 5.4. - 2. Add v2.3.19 underrun reporting to asc_isr_callback() and - adv_isr_callback(). Remove DID_UNDERRUN constant and other - no longer needed code that previously documented the lack - of underrun handling. - - 3.2J (10/14/99): - 1. Eliminate compile errors for v2.0 and earlier kernels. - - 3.2K (11/15/99): - 1. Correct debug compile error in asc_prt_adv_scsi_req_q(). - 2. Update Adv Library to 5.5. - 3. Add ifdef handling for /proc changes added in v2.3.28. - 4. Increase Wide board scatter-gather list maximum length to - 255 when the driver is compiled into the kernel. - - 3.2L (11/18/99): - 1. Fix bug in adv_get_sglist() that caused an assertion failure - at line 7475. The reqp->sgblkp pointer must be initialized - to NULL in adv_get_sglist(). - - 3.2M (11/29/99): - 1. Really fix bug in adv_get_sglist(). - 2. Incorporate v2.3.29 changes into driver. - - 3.2N (4/1/00): - 1. Add CONFIG_ISA ifdef code. - 2. Include advansys_interrupts_enabled name change patch. - 3. For >= v2.3.28 use new SCSI error handling with new function - advansys_eh_bus_reset(). Don't include an abort function - because of base library limitations. - 4. For >= v2.3.28 use per board lock instead of io_request_lock. - 5. For >= v2.3.28 eliminate advansys_command() and - advansys_command_done(). - 6. Add some changes for PowerPC (Big Endian) support, but it isn't - working yet. - 7. Fix "nonexistent resource free" problem that occurred on a module - unload for boards with an I/O space >= 255. The 'n_io_port' field - is only one byte and can not be used to hold an ioport length more - than 255. - - 3.3A (4/4/00): - 1. Update to Adv Library 5.8. - 2. For wide cards add support for CDBs up to 16 bytes. - 3. Eliminate warnings when CONFIG_PROC_FS is not defined. - - 3.3B (5/1/00): - 1. Support for PowerPC (Big Endian) wide cards. Narrow cards - still need work. - 2. Change bitfields to shift and mask access for endian - portability. - - 3.3C (10/13/00): - 1. Update for latest 2.4 kernel. - 2. Test ABP-480 CardBus support in 2.4 kernel - works! - 3. Update to Asc Library S123. - 4. Update to Adv Library 5.12. - - 3.3D (11/22/00): - 1. Update for latest 2.4 kernel. - 2. Create patches for 2.2 and 2.4 kernels. - - 3.3E (1/9/01): - 1. Now that 2.4 is released remove ifdef code for kernel versions - less than 2.2. The driver is now only supported in kernels 2.2, - 2.4, and greater. - 2. Add code to release and acquire the io_request_lock in - the driver entrypoint functions: advansys_detect and - advansys_queuecommand. In kernel 2.4 the SCSI mid-level driver - still holds the io_request_lock on entry to SCSI low-level drivers. - This was supposed to be removed before 2.4 was released but never - happened. When the mid-level SCSI driver is changed all references - to the io_request_lock should be removed from the driver. - 3. Simplify error handling by removing advansys_abort(), - AscAbortSRB(), AscResetDevice(). SCSI bus reset requests are - now handled by resetting the SCSI bus and fully re-initializing - the chip. This simple method of error recovery has proven to work - most reliably after attempts at different methods. Also now only - support the "new" error handling method and remove the obsolete - error handling interface. - 4. Fix debug build errors. - - 3.3F (1/24/01): - 1. Merge with ConnectCom version from Andy Kellner which - updates Adv Library to 5.14. - 2. Make PowerPC (Big Endian) work for narrow cards and - fix problems writing EEPROM for wide cards. - 3. Remove interrupts_enabled assertion function. - - 3.3G (2/16/01): - 1. Return an error from narrow boards if passed a 16 byte - CDB. The wide board can already handle 16 byte CDBs. - - 3.3GJ (4/15/02): - 1. hacks for lk 2.5 series (D. Gilbert) - - 3.3GJD (10/14/02): - 1. change select_queue_depths to slave_configure - 2. make cmd_per_lun be sane again - - 3.3K [2004/06/24]: - 1. continuing cleanup for lk 2.6 series - 2. Fix problem in lk 2.6.7-bk2 that broke PCI wide cards - 3. Fix problem that oopsed ISA cards - - I. Known Problems/Fix List (XXX) - - 1. Need to add memory mapping workaround. Test the memory mapping. - If it doesn't work revert to I/O port access. Can a test be done - safely? - 2. Handle an interrupt not working. Keep an interrupt counter in - the interrupt handler. In the timeout function if the interrupt - has not occurred then print a message and run in polled mode. - 3. Allow bus type scanning order to be changed. - 4. Need to add support for target mode commands, cf. CAM XPT. - - J. Credits (Chronological Order) - - Bob Frey wrote the AdvanSys SCSI driver - and maintained it up to 3.3F.
