statically. Since this function may called for another luns immediately,
allocating it statically doesn't make sense and may cause race condition
as pointed out by PR#9749.
to remove all xfers from the pending queue. It removes only xfers for
asynchronous transactions. So, simply loop over all pending xfers
with calling scsipi_done and wait xfers to drain. Addresses PR#9703.
if an IRQ was not detected, unless the force flag was given. Use this to
detect if the IRQ was for us (closer to shared IRQ for controllers which
don't have their own IRQ handler in pciide.c) and to poll for DMA xfer.
Also makes the timeout recovery code simpler.
- ATAPI cleanup: don't call controller-specific functions from atapiconf.c
(wdc_*), so that it's possible to attach an atapibus to something else
than a wdc/pciide (Hi Lennart :).
Overload struct scsi_adapter with struct atapi_adapter, defined
as struct scsi_adapter + atapi-specific callbacks. scsipi_link still points
to an scsi_adapter, atapi code casts it to atapi_adapter if needed.
Move atapi_softc to atapiconf.h so that it can be used by the underlying
controller code (e.g. atapi_wdc.c).
Add an atapi-specific callback *atapi_probedev(), which probe a drive
in a controller-specific way, allocate the sc_link and fills in the
ataparams if needed. It then calls atapi_probedev() (from atapiconf.c)
to do the generic initialisations and attach the device.
- While I'm there merge and centralise the state definitions in atavar.h.
It should now be possible to use a common ata/atapi routine to set the
drive's modes (will do later).
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
a historical leftover, and very few drivers actually look at it. But the
PCI `ncr' driver does, and if this field is not initialized to its default
value, that driver will fall over flat on its face when it attempts to get
sense data from a target.
- If UDMA 2 is failing try UDMA 1 first, it helps in some cases
- downgrade if we get an error in the first 4000 xfers, or if we get
4 errors in 4000 xfers if the first 4000 went without troubles.
While I'm there commit a local change I have since some time to get my CD
probed: issue a "blanck" IDENTIFY before the one used to detect slave ghosts,
with my drive the first IDENTIFY following a controller reset fails with an
aborted command ...
This is an attempt to allow people to change the default configuration
to try harder at 'mounting' a tape. This allows you to specify, in
seconds, the amount of time a non-control unit open will retry
(once per second) the scsipi_test_unit_ready when it tries to mount
the tape. It also turns off the over-verbose error reporting at
this time unless SCSIDEBUG is set.
The reason this is not enabled as a default is that it's a large change
of behaviour. I find it useful to 'try harder' at mounting a tape in
the tape driver, particularly when loaded via a media changer device
rather than specifying the delays in the backup program.
