From 1da177e4c3f41524e886b7f1b8a0c1fc7321cac2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2005 15:20:36 -0700 Subject: Linux-2.6.12-rc2 Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it.

This is only useful + for printing the right name of the controller. + - DEL-441 Item 2 work-around for the 53c876 rev <= 5 (0x15). + - Add additional checking of INQUIRY data: + Check INQUIRY data received length is at least 7. Byte 7 of + inquiry data contains device features bits and the driver might + be confused by garbage. Also check peripheral qualifier. + - Cleanup of the SCSI tasks management: + Remove the special case for 32 tags. Now the driver only uses the + scheme that allows up to 64 tags per LUN. + Merge some code from the 896 driver. + Use a 1,3,5,...MAXTAGS*2+1 tag numbering.

This is an old + and trivial mistake that seems to demonstrate the README file is + not often read. :) + +Sun Oct 4 14:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 3.0i + - Cosmetic changes for sparc (but not for the driver) that needs + __irq_itoa() to be used for printed IRQ value to be understandable. + - Some problems with the driver that didn't occur using driver 2.5f + were due to a SCSI selection problem triggered by a clearly + documented feature that in fact seems not to work: (53C8XX chips + are claimed by the manuals to be able to execute SCSI scripts just + after abitration while the SCSI core is performing SCSI selection). + This optimization is broken and has been removed. + - Some broken scsi devices are confused when a negotiation is started + on a LUN that does not correspond to a real device. According to + SCSI specs, this is a device firmware bug. This has been worked + around by only starting negotiation if the LUN has previously be + used for at least 1 successful SCSI command. + - The 'last message sent' printed out on M_REJECT message reception + was read from the SFBR i/o register after the previous message had + been sent. + This was not correct and affects all previous driver versions and + the original FreeBSD one as well. The SCSI scripts has been fixed + so that it now provides the right information to the C code. + +Sat Jul 18 13:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 3.0g + - Preliminary fixes for Big Endian (sent by Eddie C. Dost). + Big Endian architectures should work again with the driver. + Eddie's patch has been partially applied since current 2.1.109 + does not have all the Sparc changes of the vger tree. + - Use of BITS_PER_LONG instead of (~0UL == 0xffffffffUL) has fixed + the problem observed when the driver was compiled using EGCS or + PGCC. + +Mon Jul 13 20:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 3.0f + - Some spelling fixes. + - linux/config.h misplaced in ncr53c8xx.h + - MODULE_PARM stuff added for linux 2.1. + - check INQUIRY response data format is exactly 2. + - use BITS_PER_LONG if defined. + +Sun Jun 28 12:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 3.0e + - Some cleanup, spelling fixes, version checks, documentations + changes, etc ... + +Sat Jun 20 20:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 3.0c + - Add a boot setup option that allows to set up device queue depths + at boot-up. This option is very useful since Linux does not + allow to change scsi device queue depth once the system has been + booted up. + +Sun Jun 15 23:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 3.0a + - Support for up to 64 TAGS per LUN. + - Rewrite the TARGET vs LUN capabilities management. + CmdQueue is now handled as a LUN capability as it shall be. + This also fixes a bug triggered when disabling tagged command + queuing for a device that had this feature enabled. + - Remove the ncr_opennings() stuff that was useless under Linux + and hard to understand to me. + - Add "setverbose" procfs driver command. It allows to tune + verbose level after boot-up. Setting this level to zero, for + example avoid flooding the syslog file. + - Add KERN_XXX to some printk's. + +Tue Jun 10 23:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 3.0 + - Linux config changes for 2.0.34: + Remove NVRAM detection config option.

After all, the ncr53c8xx is + a driver for Linux. + - Perform auto-sense on COMMAND TERMINATED. Not sure it is useful. + - Some other minor changes. + +Tue Jun 4 23:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6n + - Code cleanup and simplification: + Remove kernel 1.2.X and 1.3.X support. + Remove the _old_ target capabilities table. + Remove the error recovery code that have'nt been really useful. + Use a single alignment boundary (CACHE_LINE_SIZE) for data + structures. + - Several aggressive SCRIPTS optimizations and changes: + Reselect SCRIPTS code rewritten. + Support for selection/reselection without ATN. + And some others. + - Miscallaneous changes in the C code: + Count actual number of CCB queued to the controller (future use). + Lots of other minor changes. + +Wed May 13 20:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6m + - Problem of missed SCSI bus reset with the 53C895 fixed by + Richard Waltham. The 53C895 needs about 650 us for the bus + mode to settle. Delays used while resetting the controller + and the bus have been adjusted. Thanks Richard! + - Some simplification for 64 bit arch done ccb address testing. + - Add a check of the MSG_OUT phase after Selection with ATN. + - The new tagged queue stuff seems ok, so some informationnal + message have been conditionned by verbose >= 3. + - Donnot reset if a SBMC interrupt reports the same bus mode. + - Print out the whole driver set-up. Some options were missing and + the print statement was misplaced for modules. + - Ignore a SCSI parity interrupt if the chip is not connected to + the SCSI bus. + +Sat May 1 16:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6l + - Add CCB done queue support for Alpha and perhaps some other + architectures. + - Add some barriers to enforce memory ordering for x86 and + Alpha architectures. + - Fix something that looks like an old bug in the nego SIR + interrupt code in case of negotiation failure. + +Sat Apr 25 21:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6k + - Remove all accesses to the on-chip RAM from the C code: + Use SCRIPTS to load the on-chip RAM. + Use SCRIPTS to repair the start queue on selection timeout. + Use the copy of script in main memory to calculate the chip + context on phase mismatch. + - The above allows now to use the on-chip RAM without requiring + to get access to the on-chip RAM from the C code. This makes + on-chip RAM useable for linux-1.2.13 and for Linux-Alpha for + instance. + - Some simplifications and cleanups in the SCRIPTS and C code. + - Buglet fixed in parity error recovery SCRIPTS (never tested). + - Minor updates in README.ncr53c8xx. + +Wed Apr 15 21:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6j + - Incorporate changes from linux-2.1.95 ncr53c8xx driver version. + - Add SMP support for linux-2.1.95 and above. + - Fix a bug when QUEUE FULL is returned and no commands are + disconnected. This happens with Atlas I / L912 and may happen + with Atlas II / LXY4. + - Nail another one on CHECK condition when requeuing the command + for auto-sense. + - Call scsi_done() for all completed commands after interrupt + handling. + - Increase the done queue to 24 entries. + +Sat Apr 4 20:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6i + - CTEST0 is used by the 53C885 for Power Management and + priority setting between the 2 functions. + Use SDID instead as actual target number. Just have had to + overwrite it with SSID on reselection. + - Split DATA_IN and DATA_OUT scripts into 2 sub-scripts. + 64 segments are moved from on-chip RAM scripts. + If more segments, a script in main memory is used for the + additional segments. + - Since the SCRIPTS processor continues SCRIPTS execution after + having won arbitration, do some stuff prior to testing any SCSI + phase on reselection. This should have the vertue to process + scripts in parallel with the SCSI core performing selection. + - Increase the done queue to 12 entries. + +Sun Mar 29 12:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6h + - Some fixes. + +Tue Mar 26 23:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6g + - New done queue. 8 entries by default (6 always useable). + Can be increased if needed. + - Resources management using doubly linked queues. + - New auto-sense and QUEUE FULL handling that does not need to + stall the NCR queue any more. + - New CCB starvation avoiding algorithm. + - Prepare CCBs for SCSI commands that cannot be queued, instead of + inserting these commands into the waiting list. The waiting list + is now only used while resetting and when memory for CCBs is not + yet available? + +Sun Feb 8 22:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6f + - Some fixes in order to really support the 53C895, at least with + FAST-20 devices. + - Heavy changes in the target/lun resources management to allow + the scripts to jump directly to the CCB on reselection instead + of walking on the lun CCBs list. Up to 32 tags per lun are now + supported without script processor and PCI traffic overhead. + +Sun Jan 11 22:00 1998 Gerard Roudier (groudier@club-internet.fr) + * revision 2.6d + - new (different ?) implementation of the start queue: + Use a simple CALL to a launch script in the CCB. + - implement a minimal done queue (1 entry :-) ). + this avoid scanning all CCBs on INT FLY (Only scan all CCBs, on + overflow). Hit ratio is better than 99.9 % on my system, so no + need to have a larger done queue. + - generalization of the restart of CCB on special condition as + Abort, QUEUE FULL, CHECK CONDITION. + This has been called 'silly scheduler'. + - make all the profiling code conditionned by a config option. + This spare some PCI traffic and C code when this feature is not + needed. + - handle more cleanly the situation where direction is unknown. + The pointers patching is now performed by the SCRIPTS processor. + - remove some useless scripts instructions. + + Ported from driver 2.5 series: + ------------------------------ + - Use FAST-5 instead of SLOW for slow scsi devices according to + new SPI-2 draft. + - Make some changes in order to accommodate with 875 rev <= 3 + device errata listing 397. Minor consequences are: + . Leave use of PCI Write and Invalidate under user control. + Now, by default the driver does not enable PCI MWI and option + 'specf:y' is required in order to enable this feature. + . Memory Read Line is not enabled for 875 and 875-like chips. + . Programmed burst length set to 64 DWORDS (instead of 128). + (Note: SYMBIOS uses 32 DWORDS for the SDMS BIOS) + - Add 'buschk' boot option. + This option enables checking of SCSI BUS data lines after SCSI + RESET (set by default). (Submitted by Richard Waltham). + - Update the README file. + - Dispatch CONDITION MET and RESERVATION CONFLICT scsi status + as OK driver status. + - Update the README file and the Symbios NVRAM format definition + with removable media flags values (available with SDMS 4.09). + - Several PCI configuration registers fix-ups for powerpc. + (Patch sent by Cort). -- cgit v1.2.3
