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.
Inspired by PR #6090, from Matt Jacob.
more robust in resource shortage situations, basically identical to
code I added to the "ahc" driver some time ago.
Thanks to Brad Spencer for the testing help.
should creation/initialization of a ecb fail. Also, don't panic in
these situations. Instead, simply return an error condition and allow
the caller to deal with it. It may be the case that we were able to
create one ecb what we can grab, and continue to hobble along.
(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.
- 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.
