Reintroduce more of a 'channel' concept in preparation for NP-IV support.
This gets rid of the chanA/chanB concept as the 2400 can have up to 128
virtual channels. Actually, with MID firmware you can also have the 2200
and 2300 support 'channels, but they do it with an FL-Port topology.
Because FC cards can now have 'channels', just about every support
function for fibre channel had to be redone to have a channel index
as well. Rototill isp_ioctl.h for channel stuff as well.
Pick up a lot of work about fabric management (hopefully better) and keep
work in place that will allow for dynamic attachment/detachment of devices
(if I can figure out how to make the midlayer support it).
Merge the target code with external trees. Eventually it might even
be sorted out on NetBSD.
Update some firmware stuff.
The major changes are:
+ 4Gb (24XX) card support
+ Rewritten fabric and loop evaluation code
+ New f/w sets
The 4Gb changes required major rototilling, which caused a rewrite of
fabric and loop eval code. The latter can now be set up to tune for
dynamic device arrival/departure if the framework is set up for it,
or to be firm about waiting for devices.
Testing has been principally on amd64, i386 and sparc64 and seems to
not have broken things for me.
with NetBSD 1.5). With all newer versions available to us, we have seen
some adapters crash -- and fail to respond to reset -- under certain heavy
load conditions. This version appears stable under heavy load with the
current driver on multiple systems on which we can reproduce the failure
with newer versions.

Matt's done some testing with it, and I've also tested on a very basic
setup with a QLA 2310 and a tower of 4 FC drives.
Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any change log for the firmware.
saves about 2.2MB under /usr/include/dev/. Discussed on tech-kern@

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.
cycle to get rid of the old 1.31 firmware. *@!$&^@&$!&^&^!!!!!
But anyway comment it out and use new SBus 7.55 firmware. We get fast posting
with this as well as 32 luns and target mode support.
as with user-land programs, include files are installed by each directory
in the tree that has includes to install. (This allows more flexibility
as to what gets installed, makes 'partial installs' easier, and gives us
more options as to which machines' includes get installed at any given
time.) The old SYS_INCLUDES={symlinks,copies} behaviours are _both_
still supported, though at least one bug in the 'symlinks' case is
fixed by this change. Include files can't be build before installation,
so directories that have includes as targets (e.g. dev/pci) have to move
those targets into a different Makefile.
