[SCSI] aacraid: Series 7 Async. (performance) mode support

2012-07-20T07:59:04Z

- Series 7 Async. (performance) mode support added - New scatter/gather list format for Series 7 - Driver converts s/g list to a firmware suitable list for best performance on Series 7, this can be disabled with driver parameter "aac_convert_sgl" for testing purposes - New container read/write command structure for Series 7 - Fast response support for the SCSI pass-through path added - Async. status response buffer changes Signed-off-by: Mahesh Rajashekhara Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] aacraid: Better handling of in-flight events on thread stop

2012-07-20T07:58:43Z

When an error occured that would shut down the driver, some in-flight events were getting caught up, deadlocking a CPU or two. Signed-off-by: Ben Collins Acked-by: Achim Leubner Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] aacraid: Use resource_size_t for IO mem pointers and offsets

2012-07-20T07:58:43Z

This also stops using the "legacy crap" in Scsi_Host (shost->base is an unsigned long). This affected 32-bit systems that have 64-bit resource sizes, causing the IO address to be truncated. Signed-off-by: Ben Collins Acked-by: Achim Leubner Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] aacraid: Added Sync.mode to support series 7/8/9 controllers

2012-02-19T14:09:01Z

Added Sync. mode to support Series 7/8/9 controller families: This is a compatibility mode for all these controller families. The Async. (Performance) mode can be changed in the future. First Async. mode version added for Series 7; Controller parameter aac_sync_mode added Signed-off-by: Mahesh Rajashekhara Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

[SCSI] aacraid: controller hangs if kernel uses non-default ASPM policy

2011-11-11T14:19:01Z

Aacraid controller can hang on some nodes if kernel uses non-default (powersave) ASPM policy. Controller hangs shortly after successful load and hardware detection. Scsi error handler detects this hang and tries to restart hardware but it does not help. Initially it was noticed on RHEL6-based openVZ kernel after backporting aacraid driver from mainline (RHEL6 kernel with original driver works well) http://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2043 This issue happens because default ASPM policy was changed in Red Hat kernels. Therefore guys from Red Hat have noticed this problem long time ago: on Fedora 12 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=540478 on Fedora 14 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=679385 In RHEL6 kernel this issue was fixed, ASPM was disabled in aacraid driver. In kernel changelog I've found that seems it was done by Matthew Garrett: - [scsi] aacraid: Disable ASPM by default (Matthew Garrett) [599735] However seems this patch was not submitted to mainline. I've reproduced this issue on vanilla 3.1.0 kernel booted with "pcie_aspm.policy=powersave" option, So I believe it makes sense to do it now.

[SCSI] aacraid: use lower snprintf() limit

2011-10-20T15:07:42Z

This is just a cleanup, to silence static checker warnings. It doesn't change how the code works. buf[] can either be BUF_SIZE if this is called from sysfs, or it can be 16 if it's called from aac_get_adapter_info() via aac_get_serial_number(). We use the smaller limit here. sizeof(dev->supplement_adapter_info.MfgPcbaSerialNo) is 12 so there is actually no chance of hitting either limit.

aacraid: Drop TIME usage

2011-04-18T22:23:21Z

The kernel already prints its build timestamp during boot, no need to repeat it in random drivers and produce different object files each time. Cc: Adaptec OEM Raid Solutions Cc: linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Michal Marek

[SCSI] aacraid: Add new code for PMC-Sierra's SRC based controller family

2011-03-23T16:36:58Z

Added new hardware device 0x28b interface for PMC-Sierra's SRC based controller family. - new src.c file for 0x28b specific functions - new XPORT header required - sync. command interface: doorbell bits shifted (SRC_ODR_SHIFT, SRC_IDR_SHIFT) - async. Interface: different inbound queue handling, no outbound I2O queue available, using doorbell ("PmDoorBellResponseSent") and response buffer on the host ("host_rrq") for status - changed AIF (adapter initiated FIBs) interface: "DoorBellAifPending" bit to inform about pending AIF, "AifRequest" command to read AIF, "NoMoreAifDataAvailable" to mark the end of the AIFs Signed-off-by: Mahesh Rajashekhara Signed-off-by: James Bottomley

SCSI host lock push-down

2010-11-16T21:33:23Z

Move the mid-layer's ->queuecommand() invocation from being locked with the host lock to being unlocked to facilitate speeding up the critical path for drivers who don't need this lock taken anyway. The patch below presents a simple SCSI host lock push-down as an equivalent transformation. No locking or other behavior should change with this patch. All existing bugs and locking orders are preserved. Additionally, add one parameter to queuecommand, struct Scsi_Host * and remove one parameter from queuecommand, void (*done)(struct scsi_cmnd *) Scsi_Host* is a convenient pointer that most host drivers need anyway, and 'done' is redundant to struct scsi_cmnd->scsi_done. Minimal code disturbance was attempted with this change. Most drivers needed only two one-line modifications for their host lock push-down.
