-Notes for CPQFCTS driver for Compaq Tachyon TS
-Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter, PCI 64-bit, 66MHz
-for Linux (RH 6.1, 6.2 kernel 2.2.12-32, 2.2.14-5)
-SMP tested
-Tested in single and dual HBA configuration, 32 and 64bit busses,
-33 and 66MHz. Only supports FC-AL.
-SEST size 512 Exchanges (simultaneous I/Os) limited by module kmalloc()
- max of 128k bytes contiguous.
-
-Ver 2.5.4 Oct 03, 2002
- * fixed memcpy of sense buffer in ioctl to copy the smaller defined size
-Ver 2.5.3 Aug 01, 2002
- * fix the passthru ioctl to handle the Scsi_Cmnd->request being a pointer
-Ver 2.5.1 Jul 30, 2002
- * fix ioctl to pay attention to the specified LUN.
-Ver 2.5.0 Nov 29, 2001
- * eliminated io_request_lock. This change makes the driver specific
- to the 2.5.x kernels.
- * silenced excessively noisy printks.
-
-Ver 2.1.2 July 23, 2002
- * initialize DumCmnd->lun in cpqfcTS_ioctl (used in fcFindLoggedInPorts as LUN index)
-
-Ver 2.1.1 Oct 18, 2001
- * reinitialize Cmnd->SCp.sent_command (used to identify commands as
- passthrus) on calling scsi_done, since the scsi mid layer does not
- use (or reinitialize) this field to prevent subsequent comands from
- having it set incorrectly.
-
-Ver 2.1.0 Aug 27, 2001
- * Revise driver to use new kernel 2.4.x PCI DMA API, instead of
- virt_to_bus(). (enables driver to work w/ ia64 systems with >2Gb RAM.)
- Rework main scatter-gather code to handle cases where SG element
- lengths are larger than 0x7FFFF bytes and use as many scatter
- gather pages as necessary. (Steve Cameron)
- * Makefile changes to bring cpqfc into line w/ rest of SCSI drivers
- (thanks to Keith Owens)
-
-Ver 2.0.5 Aug 06, 2001
- * Reject non-existent luns in the driver rather than letting the
- hardware do it. (some HW behaves differently than others in this area.)
- * Changed Makefile to rely on "make dep" instead of explicit dependencies
- * ifdef'ed out fibre channel analyzer triggering debug code
- * fixed a jiffies wrapping issue
-
-Ver 2.0.4 Aug 01, 2001
- * Incorporated fix for target device reset from Steeleye
- * Fixed passthrough ioctl so it doesn't hang.
- * Fixed hang in launch_FCworker_thread() that occurred on some machines.
- * Avoid problem when number of volumes in a single cabinet > 8
-
-Ver 2.0.2 July 23, 2001
- Changed the semiphore changes so the driver would compile in 2.4.7.
- This version is for 2.4.7 and beyond.
-
-Ver 2.0.1 May 7, 2001
- Merged version 1.3.6 fixes into version 2.0.0.
-
-Ver 2.0.0 May 7, 2001
- Fixed problem so spinlock is being initialized to UNLOCKED.
- Fixed updated driver so it compiles in the 2.4 tree.
-
- Ver 1.3.6 Feb 27, 2001
- Added Target_Device_Reset function for SCSI error handling
- Fixed problem with not reseting addressing mode after implicit logout
-
-
-Ver 1.3.4 Sep 7, 2000
- Added Modinfo information
- Fixed problem with statically linking the driver
-
-Ver 1.3.3, Aug 23, 2000
- Fixed device/function number in ioctl
-
-Ver 1.3.2, July 27, 2000
- Add include for Alpha compile on 2.2.14 kernel (cpq*i2c.c)
- Change logic for different FCP-RSP sense_buffer location for HSG80 target
- And search for Agilent Tachyon XL2 HBAs (not finished! - in test)
-

-*************************
-
-If a GBIC of type Short-wave, Long-wave, or Copper is detected, it will
-print out; otherwise, "none" is displayed. If the cabling is correct
-and a loop circuit is completed, you should see "Monitor"; otherwise,
-"LoopFail" (on open circuit) or some LPSM number/state with bit 3 set.
-
-
-ERRATA:
-1. Normally, Linux Scsi queries FC devices with INQUIRY strings. All LUNs
-found according to INQUIRY should get READ commands at sector 0 to find
-partition table, etc. Older kernels only query the first 4 devices. Some
-Linux kernels only look for one LUN per target (i.e. FC device).
-
-2. Physically removing a device, or a malfunctioning system which hides a
-device, leads to a 30-second timeout and subsequent _abort call.
-In some process contexts, this will hang the kernel (crashing the system).
-Single bit errors in frames and virtually all hot plugging events are
-gracefully handled with internal driver timer and Abort processing.
-
-3. Some SCSI drives with error conditions will not handle the 7 second timeout
-in this software driver, leading to infinite retries on timed out SCSI commands.
-The 7 secs balances the need to quickly recover from lost frames (esp. on sequence
-initiatives) and time needed by older/slower/error-state drives in responding.
-This can be easily changed in "Exchanges[].timeOut".
-
-4. Due to the nature of FC soft addressing, there is no assurance that the
-same LUNs (drives) will have the same path (e.g. /dev/sdb1) from one boot to
-next. Dynamic soft address changes (i.e. 24-bit FC port_id) are
-supported during run time (e.g. due to hot plug event) by the use of WWN to
-SCSI Nexus (channel/target/LUN) mapping.
-
-5. Compaq RA4x00 firmware version 2.54 and later supports SSP (Selective
-Storage Presentation), which maps LUNs to a WWN. If RA4x00 firmware prior
-2.54 (e.g. older controller) is used, or the FC HBA is replaced (another WWN
-is used), logical volumes on the RA4x00 will no longer be visible.

+To send a request to the controller:
+
+ - Get a free request packet by reading the inbound queue port or
+ allocate a free request in host DMA coherent memory.
+
+ The value returned from the inbound queue port is an offset
+ relative to the IOP BAR0.
+
+ Requests allocated in host memory must be aligned on 32-bytes boundary.
+
+ - Fill the packet.
+
+ - Post the packet to IOP by writing it to inbound queue. For requests
+ allocated in IOP memory, write the offset to inbound queue port. For
+ requests allocated in host memory, write (0x80000000|(bus_addr>>5))
+ to the inbound queue port.
+
+ - The IOP process the request. When the request is completed, it
+ will be put into outbound queue. An outbound interrupt will be
+ generated.
+
+ For requests allocated in IOP memory, the request offset is posted to
+ outbound queue.
+
+ For requests allocated in host memory, (0x80000000|(bus_addr>>5))
+ is posted to the outbound queue. If IOP_REQUEST_FLAG_OUTPUT_CONTEXT
+ flag is set in the request, the low 32-bit context value will be
+ posted instead.
+
+ - The host read the outbound queue and complete the request.
+
+ For requests allocated in IOP memory, the host driver free the request
+ by writing it to the outbound queue.
+
+Non-queued requests (reset/flush etc) can be sent via inbound message
+register 0. An outbound message with the same value indicates the completion
+of an inbound message.

+User-level Interface
+---------------------
+
+The driver exposes following sysfs attributes:
+
+ NAME R/W Description
+ driver-version R driver version string
+ firmware-version R firmware version string
+
+The driver registers char device "hptiop" to communicate with HighPoint RAID
+management software. Its ioctl routine acts as a general binary interface
+between the IOP firmware and HighPoint RAID management software. New management
+functions can be implemented in application/firmware without modification
+in driver code.
