Roaming mode can change value into 'firm mode' and disable.
Authentication mode can change into 'Open System authentication'
and 'Shared Key Authentication' with Prism2 chip.
wi_get_id() was introduced in order that chip might judge automatically
whether it is Prism2 chip. Therefore, a pp_prism2 entry in
"struct wi_pcmcia_product" became unnecessary.
This is a completely rewritten scsipi_xfer execution engine, and the
associated changes to HBA drivers. Overview of changes & features:
- All xfers are queued in the mid-layer, rather than doing so in an
ad-hoc fashion in individual adapter drivers.
- Adapter/channel resource management in the mid-layer, avoids even trying
to start running an xfer if the adapter/channel doesn't have the resources.
- Better communication between the mid-layer and the adapters.
- Asynchronous event notification mechanism from adapter to mid-layer and
peripherals.
- Better peripheral queue management: freeze/thaw, sorted requeueing during
recovery, etc.
- Clean separation of peripherals, adapters, and adapter channels (no more
scsipi_link).
- Kernel thread for each scsipi_channel makes error recovery much easier
(no more dealing with interrupt context when recovering from an error).
- Mid-layer support for tagged queueing: commands can have the tag type
set explicitly, tag IDs are allocated in the mid-layer (thus eliminating
the need to use buggy tag ID allocation schemes in many adapter drivers).
- support for QUEUE FULL and CHECK CONDITION status in mid-layer; the command
will be requeued, or a REQUEST SENSE will be sent as appropriate.
Just before the merge syssrc has been tagged with thorpej_scsipi_beforemerge
saves about 2.2MB under /usr/include/dev/. Discussed on tech-kern@
recently.
I HOPE to get the list right. The headers I left in are ones
used for MI tools and those whose usage I discovered by grep over tree sources.
Feel free to put needed includes back in if you encounter anything which
should not be removed from lists.
This now provides slightly more functionality than the FreeBSD layer1-newbus
interface. It was meant to be a simple change to one header and a few
c files, but the change rippled all through various stuff.
To prevent a change to the kernel<->userland interface right now the kernel
is now lying about card types to userland (but who cares). This will be fixed
when the userland interface changes, after layer 3 <-> layer 4 has been
fixed.
Functional changes:
Provide a clean interface for hardware drivers to attach to the upper
layers. This will need another small change in the B-channel handling
when a similar change to the layer 3 <-> layer 4 interface happens.
Avoid passing indices into global arrays of pointers around, instead pass
the pointers itself. Don't code hardware driver types by predefined magic
numbers (think LKM). Prepare for detachable drivers (think pcmcia).
While there remove some sets of function pointers always pointing to the
same function (meant to be the configurable set of D channel protocol
handlers). It is unlikely another supported D-channel protocol will fit into
that (maximal layer interface) abstraction. When we get support for another
protocol, we will need to come up with a workable interface. Besides, the
old implementation was, uhm, strange.
remove all (legacy) "i4b_" prefixes outside of sys/netisdn.
Prefix all card specific driver support files with the basename
of the driver bus attachement file.
Renamed here:
i4b_isic_pcmcia.c -> isic_pcmcia.c
i4b_isic_pcmcia.h -> isic_pcmcia.h
i4b_avm_fritz_pcmcia.c -> isic_pcmcia_avm_fritz.c
i4b_elsa_isdnmc.c -> isic_pcmcia_elsa_isdnmc.c
i4b_elsa_mcall.c -> isic_pcmcia_elsa_mcall.c
i4b_sbspeedstar2.c -> isic_pcmcia_sbspeedstar2.c
