need to understand the locking around that field. Instead of setting
B_ERROR, set b_error instead. b_error is 'owned' by whoever completes
the I/O request.
- use vmspace rather than proc or lwp where appropriate.
the latter is more natural to specify an address space.

the kernel anyway). Should fix port-sparc64/31925 by Johan A.van Zanten

in some drivers including wd and scsi.
- physio: if a caller provided a buf, stick to use it
because some drivers use it as an identifier.
- sprinkle simple_locks.
- scsistrategy: rather than issueing an async request and
waiting for its completion, simply issue a sync request.
the way to wait for the completion had an assumption that
B_CALL is never used. it isn't the case after the recent
physio() changes.

scsipi_done() from their scsipi_request().
For this, add a struct scsipi_xfer * argument to scsipi_command().
If not NULL scsipi_command() will use this to enqueue this xfer, otherwise
it'll try to allocate a new one. This scsipi_xfer has to be allocated
and initialised by scsipi_make_xs() or equivalent.
In xxstart(), allocate a scsipi_xfer using scsipi_make_xs(), and if not NULL,
dequeue the buffer before calling scsipi_command(). This makes sure that
scsipi_command() will not fail, and also makes sure that xxstart() won't
be called again between the BUFQ_PEEK() and BUFQ_GET().

be inserted into ktrace records. The general change has been to replace
"struct proc *" with "struct lwp *" in various function prototypes, pass
the lwp through and use l_proc to get the process pointer when needed.
Bump the kernel rev up to 1.6V
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
- `flags' is now gone, replaced with `xs_control' and `xs_status'.
- Massive cleanup of the control flags. Now we explicitly say that
a job is to complete asynchronously, rather than relying on side-effects,
and use a new flag to now that device discovery is being performed.
- Do SCSI device discovery interrupt-driven.
scsi_base.c to scsipi_base.c. Rename the functions from scsi_verbose.c
too, and rename the file itself. Cleaup includes too (scsi_*.h should not
be #included in scsipi_*.h files, which are supposed to be
common to atapi and scsi).
- Indent with tab of width 8.
- Use four column to indent continuation line.
- Fold long line if possible.
- Use return (xx) instead of return xx.
- Compare pointer against NULL instead of testing like boolean.
- Delete whitespace at the end of line.
- Delete whitespace in front of function call operator.
- Delete whitespace after cast.
- Dereference a pointer to function explicitly.
- Add an empty line after local variable declaration.
- Use NULL instead of (char *)0.
- Dont use block for single statement.
(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.
