directly. That would require that we map the scsipi_xfer into DMA
space. Instead, copy to/from the NCR CCB, which the script already
has to DMA to/from. These copies are small, and don't seem to affect
performance.
Separate the ncb (i.e. softc) members that are accessed by the script into
a separate structure. Allocate one of these structures in DMA safe memory
using bus_dma, and change RELOC_SOFTC to use the DMA address of this
structure.
struct scsipi_adapter; they were not used.
Add a scsipi_ioctl entry point to struct scsipi_adapter. This will be
used to issue ioctl commands to the host adapters.

associated with any observed lossage...it was just noticed while reading
ncr_start().
g/c some now-unreachable code produced by the earlier race condition fix.
(currently only CD-ROM drives on i386). The sys/dev/scsipi system provides 2
busses to which devices can attach (scsibus and atapibus). This needed to
change some include files and structure names in the low level scsi drivers.
by default if it's usable, but falling back to I/O space if mem isn't usable.
If NCR_IOMAPPED is defined (default on the x86), prefer I/O space
then fall back to mem. Also, clean up the various memory consistency checks
so that they can deal with run-time determination of whether or not the
device is to be memory- or I/O-mapped.

Tested on alpha by cgd, tested on several i386 boxes. Certainly causes
no harm to the goddamned mess, but the NCR driver only works when you
perform voodoo rituals on it anyway.
This is what Dave said (in email) has been added to the driver:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This seems to be the most significant change:
General cleanup and new features for 53c875 based cards, especially the
Tekram DC390W/U/F, whose config EEPROM can now be dumped, if the kernel
is built with option NCR_TEKRAM_EEPROM.
Other changes:
- add brackets to expansion of OUTB/W/L macro arguments.
- remove unused NCB structure element ns_async
- support sync. SCSI offset of 16 (instead of only 8) on 825A and 875
- correctly identify 53c810A and 53c825A chips
- preserve SCSI BIOS settings of PCI performance options
- remove (already disabled) support for NCR reset because of command timeout
- reverse order of reading of SCSI and DMA specific interrupt cause registers
- add definition of Tekram config EEPROM contents (not currently used)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2841, plus some fixes to make the patches work on the Alpha. Seems to
improve the NCR driver a lot. We probably should try to incorporate
any updates that have happened since, too.
(This fixes problems with the printf format fixes i checked in yesterday.
ptrdiff_t is an 'int' on the i386 but a 'long' on the alpha, so the cast
really is necessary... *sigh*)
- No more distinction between i/o-mapped and memory-mapped
devices. It's all "bus space" now, and space tags
differentiate the space with finer grain than the
bus chipset tag.
- Add memory barrier methods.
- Implement space alloc/free methods.
- Implement region read/write methods (like memcpy to/from
bus space).
This interface provides a better abstraction for dealing with
machine-independent chipset drivers.
multi-channel driver), or to SCSI_CHANNEL_ONLY_ONE if a
single-channel driver.
(2) use scsiprint() rather than a locally-defined autoconfig print
function, and kill any locally-defined print function.
a char *, because that's what was really intended, and because
if the print function modifies the string, various things could become
unhappy (so the string should _not_ be modified).
