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)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
CONFIG_CNTRL bits by making the "conn" argument to epconfig()
a u_int, not a u_int16_t, and by defining 100mbit media
bits in the upper 16 bits.
A redesigned interface that fixes this properly is in the pipeline.
rather than unknown.
* Look for 100mbit interfaces, and for any present, set corresponding
bits in `conn' argument to epconfig(). epconfig() will now print
100Mbit media by name.
that their child busses can be attached after the PCI bus
autoconfiguration for their parent bus is done.
This works because:
(1) there can be at most one ISA/EISA bridge per PCI bus, and
(2) any ISA/EISA bridges must be attached to primary PCI
busses (i.e. bus zero).
That boils down to: there can only be one of these outstanding
at a time, it is cleared when configuring PCI bus 0 before any
subdevices have been found, and it is run after all subdevices
of PCI bus 0 have been found.
This (or something like it) is needed because there are some (legacy)
PCI devices which can show up as ISA/EISA devices as well (the prime
example of which are VGA controllers). If you attach ISA from a
PCI-ISA/EISA bridge, and the bridge is seen before the video board is,
the board can show up as an ISA device, and that can (bogusly)
complicate the PCI device's attach code, or make the PCI device not be
properly attached at all.
This could be done with machine-dependent code, but as more ports
add support for PCI (and PCI-ISA/EISA bridges) more will need it.
The i386 port could (perhaps should) be converted to use it as well.
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*)
ISA-compatible port space of PCI buslogic cards.
* Add call to bha_pci.c to disable the ISA-compatible ports of a PCI
device. The ISA-compatible ports are enabled by default, which
causes the card to be autoconfigured a second time as an ISA device,
which appears to deadlock the card.
* Change bha_cmd() to return the number of bytes it actually received
in response to a command, or -1 on error.
* Use heuristics (checking for bha-only registers, and checking the size
of the response to BHA_INQURE_EXTENDED) to bha_find, to make sure the
bha driver never matches an aha (Adaptec 1542 or compatible) device.
A single kernel should now boot on either Adaptec or BusLogic controllers,
provided we always probe for BusLogic devices before Adaptec devices,
but this has not yet been verified.
- 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.
dev/microcode/aic7xxx_seq.h,
dev/ic/aic7xxxreg.h:
Remove intrinsic knowledge about SDTR and WDTR messages and replace it
with a generic message system that allows the kernel driver to handle
SDTR, WDTR and any other type of extended message it chooses too. This
makes the sequencer code much simpler, makes extended message handling
debuggable since the bulk of the work is in the kernel driver, and saves
lots of instruction space.
Regen microcode header file.
dev/ic/aic7xxx.c, dev/ic/aic7xxxvar.h:
Add code to handle WDTR and SDTR negotiation in light of the changes in
the message interface to the sequencer. Don't reject targets that
negotiate async by sending an SDTR with a 0 offset. Use an sdtr message
with 0,0 to negotiate async when a target suggests a period that is too
long for us to handle. Some tape and cdrom drives don't like us doing
the message reject that we did in the past.
Fix a problem with handing the QUEUE FULL condition.
Fix a race condition (most likely the cause of the SCB paging problems) that
might allow the sequencer to get unpaused before the condition that caused
it to be paused (a SEQINT) was handled.
Race condition pointed out by Doug Ledford <dledford@dialnet.net> and
by "Dan Willis" <dan@plutotech.com>.
dev/pci/ahc_pci.c:
Add support for the 2940AU, an aic7860 based controller.
dev/pci/pcidevs.h, dev/pci/pcidevs_data.h:
Add product IDs for the 2940AU, aic7860 and aic7855.
Regen data file.
scsi/scsi_message.h:
Add MSG_EXT_SDTR_LEN and MSG_EXT_WDTR_LEN - the length of bytes in these
extended messages.
Thanks to Chuck Cranor <chuck@maria.wustl.edu> for testing these changes
out for me.
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).
