Merge tag 'scsi-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi
Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"This is mostly updates of the usual drivers: arcmsr, qla2xx, lpfc,
ufs, mpt3sas, hisi_sas.
In addition we have removed several really old drivers: sym53c416,
NCR53c406a, fdomain, fdomain_cs and removed the old scsi_module.c
initialization from all remaining drivers.
Plus an assortment of bug fixes, initialization errors and other minor
fixes"

Mainly - we want to use linked lists instead of arrays because it is easier - to dynamically add and remove things this way. - - Quite a bit more work is needed before loadable modules are - possible (and usable) with scsi, but this is most of the grunge - work. - - * Linux 1.1.28 released. - - * scsi.c, scsi.h (allocate_device, request_queueable): Change - argument from index into scsi_devices to a pointer to the - Scsi_Device struct. - - * Throughout: Change all calls to allocate_device, - request_queueable to use new calling sequence. - - * Throughout: Use SCpnt->device instead of - scsi_devices[SCpnt->index]. Ugh - the pointer was there all along - - much cleaner this way. - - * scsi.c (scsi_init_malloc, scsi_free_malloc): New functions - - allow us to pretend that we have a working malloc when we - initialize. Use this instead of passing memory_start, memory_end - around all over the place. - - * scsi.h, st.c, sr.c, sd.c, sg.c: Change *_init1 functions to use - scsi_init_malloc, remove all arguments, no return value. - - * scsi.h: Remove index field from Scsi_Device and Scsi_Cmnd - structs. - - * scsi.c (scsi_dev_init): Set up for scsi_init_malloc. - (scan_scsis): Get SDpnt from scsi_init_malloc, and refresh - when we discover a device.

The buslogic board apparently supports large SG lists, - but it is apparently faster if sd.c condenses this into a smaller - list. - - * sd.c: Use this field instead of heuristic. - - * All host adapter include files: Add appropriate initializer for - use_clustering field. - - * scsi.h: Add #defines for return codes for the abort and reset - functions. There are now a specific set of return codes to fully - specify all of the possible things that the low-level adapter - could do. - - * scsi.c: Act based upon return codes from abort/reset functions. - - * All host adapter abort/reset functions: Return new return code. - - * Add code in scsi.c to help debug timeouts. Use #define - DEBUG_TIMEOUT to enable this. - - * scsi.c: If the host->irq field is set, use - disable_irq/enable_irq before calling queuecommand if we - are not already in an interrupt. Reduce races, and we - can be sloppier about cli/sti in the interrupt routines now - (reduce interrupt latency). - - * constants.c: Fix some things to eliminate warnings. Add some - sense descriptions that were omitted before. - - * aha1542.c: Watch for SCRD from host adapter - if we see it, set - a flag. Currently we only print out the number of pending - commands that might need to be restarted. - - * aha1542.c (aha1542_abort): Look for lost interrupts, OGMB still - full, and attempt to recover. Otherwise give up. - - * aha1542.c (aha1542_reset): Try BUS DEVICE RESET, and then pass - DID_RESET back up to the upper level code for all commands running - on this target (even on different LUNs). - -Sat May 7 14:54:01 1994 - - * Linux 1.1.12 released. - - * st.c, st.h: New version from Kai.

Purpose and history ----------------------- -The tmscsim driver supports PCI SCSI Host Adapters based on the AM53C974 -chip. AM53C974 based SCSI adapters include: - Tekram DC390, DC390T - Dawicontrol 2974 - QLogic Fast! PCI Basic - some on-board adapters -(This is most probably not a complete list) - -It has originally written by C.L. Huang from the Tekram corp. to support the -Tekram DC390(T) adapter. This is where the name comes from: tm = Tekram -scsi = SCSI driver, m = AMD (?) as opposed to w for the DC390W/U/F -(NCR53c8X5, X=2/7) driver. Yes, there was also a driver for the latter, -tmscsiw, which supported DC390W/U/F adapters. It's not maintained any more, -as the ncr53c8xx is perfectly supporting these adapters since some time. - -The driver first appeared in April 1996, exclusively supported the DC390 -and has been enhanced since then in various steps. In May 1998 support for -general AM53C974 based adapters and some possibilities to configure it were -added. The non-DC390 support works by assuming some values for the data -normally taken from the DC390 EEPROM. See below (chapter 5) for details. - -When using the DC390, the configuration is still be done using the DC390 -BIOS setup. The DC390 EEPROM is read and used by the driver, any boot or -module parameters (chapter 5) are ignored! However, you can change settings -dynamically, as described in chapter 4. - -For a more detailed description of the driver's history, see the first lines -of tmscsim.c. -The numbering scheme isn't consistent. The first versions went from 1.00 to -1.12, then 1.20a to 1.20t. Finally I decided to use the ncr53c8xx scheme. So -the next revisions will be 2.0a to 2.0X (stable), 2.1a to 2.1X (experimental), -2.2a to 2.2X (stable, again) etc. (X = anything between a and z.) If I send -fixes to people for testing, I create intermediate versions with a digit -appended, e.g. 2.0c3. - - -2. Installation ---------------- -If you got any recent kernel with this driver and document included in -linux/drivers/scsi, you basically have to do nothing special to use this -driver. Of course you have to choose to compile SCSI support and DC390(T) -support into your kernel or as module when configuring your kernel for -compiling. -NEW: You may as well compile this module outside your kernel, using the -supplied Makefile. - - If you got an old kernel (pre 2.1.127, pre 2.0.37p1) with an old version of - this driver: Get dc390-21125-20b.diff.gz or dc390-2036p21-20b1.diff.gz from - my web page and apply the patch. Apply further patches to upgrade to the - latest version of the driver. - - If you want to do it manually, you should copy the files (dc390.h, - tmscsim.h, tmscsim.c, scsiiom.c and README.tmscsim) from this directory to - linux/drivers/scsi. You have to recompile your kernel/module of course. - - You should apply the three patches included in dc390-120-kernel.diff - (Applying them: cd /usr/src; patch -p0 <~/dc390-120-kernel.diff) - The patches are against 2.1.125, so you might have to manually resolve - rejections when applying to another kernel version. - - The patches will update the kernel startup code to allow boot parameters to - be passed to the driver, update the Documentation and finally offer you the - possibility to omit the non-DC390 parts of the driver. - (By selecting "Omit support for non DC390" you basically disable the - emulation of a DC390 EEPROM for non DC390 adapters. This saves a few bytes - of memory.) - -If you got a very old kernel without the tmscsim driver (pre 2.0.31) -I recommend upgrading your kernel. However, if you don't want to, please -contact me to get the appropriate patches. - - -Upgrading a SCSI driver is always a delicate thing to do. The 2.0 driver has -proven stable on many systems, but it's still a good idea to take some -precautions. In an ideal world you would have a full backup of your disks. -The world isn't ideal and most people don't have full backups (me neither). -So take at least the following measures: -* make your kernel remount the FS read-only on detecting an error: - tune2fs -e remount-ro /dev/sd?? -* have copies of your SCSI disk's partition tables on some safe location: - dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/floppy/sda bs=512 count=1 - or just print it with: - fdisk -l | lpr -* make sure you are able to boot Linux (e.g. from floppy disk using InitRD) - if your SCSI disk gets corrupted. You can use - ftp://student.physik.uni-dortmund.de/pub/linux/kernel/bootdisk.gz - -One more warning: I used to overclock my PCI bus to 41.67 MHz. My Tekram -DC390F (Sym53c875) accepted this as well as my Millennium. But the Am53C974 -produced errors and started to corrupt my disks. So don't do that! A 37.50 -MHz PCI bus works for me, though, but I don't recommend using higher clocks -than the 33.33 MHz being in the PCI spec. - - -3.Features ----------- -- SCSI - * Tagged command queueing - * Sync speed up to 10 MHz - * Disconnection - * Multiple LUNs - -- General / Linux interface - * Support for up to 4 AM53C974 adapters. - * DC390 EEPROM usage or boot/module params - * Information via cat /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? - * Dynamically configurable by writing to /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? - * Dynamic allocation of resources - * SMP support: Locking on io_request lock (Linux 2.1/2.2) or adapter - specific locks (Linux 2.5?) - * Uniform source code for Linux-2.x.y - * Support for dyn. addition/removal of devices via add/remove-single-device - (Try: echo "scsi add-single-device C B T U" >/proc/scsi/scsi - C = Controller, B = Bus, T = Target SCSI ID, U = Unit SCSI LUN.) - Use with care! - * Try to use the partition table for the determination of the mapping - - -4. Configuration via /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? ------------------------------------------ -First of all look at the output of /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? by typing - cat /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? -The "?" should be replaced by the SCSI host number. (The shell might do this -for you.) -You will see some info regarding the adapter and, at the end, a listing of -the attached devices and their settings. - -Here's an example: -garloff@kurt:/home/garloff > cat /proc/scsi/tmscsim/0 -Tekram DC390/AM53C974 PCI SCSI Host Adapter, Driver Version 2.0e7 2000-11-28 -SCSI Host Nr 1, AM53C974 Adapter Nr 0 -IOPortBase 0xb000, IRQ 10 -MaxID 8, MaxLUN 8, AdapterID 6, SelTimeout 250 ms, DelayReset 1 s -TagMaxNum 16, Status 0x00, ACBFlag 0x00, GlitchEater 24 ns -Statistics: Cmnds 1470165, Cmnds not sent directly 0, Out of SRB conds 0 - Lost arbitrations 587, Sel. connected 0, Connected: No -Nr of attached devices: 4, Nr of DCBs: 4 -Map of attached LUNs: 01 00 00 03 01 00 00 00 -Idx ID LUN Prty Sync DsCn SndS TagQ NegoPeriod SyncSpeed SyncOffs MaxCmd -00 00 00 Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes 100 ns 10.0 M 15 16 -01 03 00 Yes Yes Yes Yes No 100 ns 10.0 M 15 01 -02 03 01 Yes Yes Yes Yes No 100 ns 10.0 M 15 01 -03 04 00 Yes Yes Yes Yes No 100 ns 10.0 M 15 01 - -Note that the settings MaxID and MaxLUN are not zero- but one-based, which -means that a setting MaxLUN=4, will result in the support of LUNs 0..3. This -is somehow inconvenient, but the way the mid-level SCSI code expects it to be. - -ACB and DCB are acronyms for Adapter Control Block and Device Control Block. -These are data structures of the driver containing information about the -adapter and the connected SCSI devices respectively. - -Idx is the device index (just a consecutive number for the driver), ID and -LUN are the SCSI ID and LUN, Prty means Parity checking, Sync synchronous -negotiation, DsCn Disconnection, SndS Send Start command on startup (not -used by the driver) and TagQ Tagged Command Queueing. NegoPeriod and -SyncSpeed are somehow redundant, because they are reciprocal values -(1 / 112 ns = 8.9 MHz). At least in theory. The driver is able to adjust the -NegoPeriod more accurate (4ns) than the SyncSpeed (1 / 25ns). I don't know -if certain devices will have problems with this discrepancy. Max. speed is -10 MHz corresp. to a min. NegoPeriod of 100 ns. -(The driver allows slightly higher speeds if the devices (Ultra SCSI) accept -it, but that's out of adapter spec, on your own risk and unlikely to improve -performance. You're likely to crash your disks.) -SyncOffs is the offset used for synchronous negotiations; max. is 15. -The last values are only shown, if Sync is enabled. (NegoPeriod is still -displayed in brackets to show the values which will be used after enabling -Sync.) -MaxCmd ist the number of commands (=tags) which can be processed at the same -time by the device. - -If you want to change a setting, you can do that by writing to -/proc/scsi/tmscsim/?. Basically you have to imitate the output of driver. -(Don't use the brackets for NegoPeriod on Sync disabled devices.) -You don't have to care about capitalisation. The driver will accept space, -tab, comma, = and : as separators. - -There are three kinds of changes: - -(1) Change driver settings: - You type the names of the parameters and the params following it. - Example: - echo "MaxLUN=8 seltimeout 200" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/0 - - Note that you can only change MaxID, MaxLUN, AdapterID, SelTimeOut, - TagMaxNum, ACBFlag, GlitchEater and DelayReset. Don't change ACBFlag - unless you want to see what happens, if the driver hangs. - -(2) Change device settings: You write a config line to the driver. The Nr - must match the ID and LUN given. If you give "-" as parameter, it is - ignored and the corresponding setting won't be changed. - You can use "y" or "n" instead of "Yes" and "No" if you want to. - You don't need to specify a full line. The driver automatically performs - an INQUIRY on the device if necessary to check if it is capable to operate - with the given settings (Sync, TagQ). - Examples: - echo "0 0 0 y y y - y - 10 " >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/0 - echo "3 5 0 y n y " >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/0 - - To give a short explanation of the first example: - The first three numbers, "0 0 0" (Device index 0, SCSI ID 0, SCSI LUN 0), - select the device to which the following parameters apply. Note that it - would be sufficient to use the index or both SCSI ID and LUN, but I chose - to require all three to have a syntax similar to the output. - The following "y y y - y" enables Parity checking, enables Synchronous - transfers, Disconnection, leaves Send Start (not used) untouched and - enables Tagged Command Queueing for the selected device. The "-" skips - the Negotiation Period setting but the "10" sets the max sync. speed to - 10 MHz. It's useless to specify both NegoPeriod and SyncSpeed as - discussed above. The values used in this example will result in maximum - performance. - -(3) Special commands: You can force a SCSI bus reset, an INQUIRY command, the - removal or the addition of a device's DCB and a SCSI register dump. - This is only used for debugging when you meet problems. The parameter of - the INQUIRY and REMOVE commands is the device index as shown by the - output of /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? in the device listing in the first column - (Idx). ADD takes the SCSI ID and LUN. - Examples: - echo "reset" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/0 - echo "inquiry 1" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/0 - echo "remove 2" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/1 - echo "add 2 3" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/? - echo "dump" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/0 - - Note that you will meet problems when you REMOVE a device's DCB with the - remove command if it contains partitions which are mounted. Only use it - after unmounting its partitions, telling the SCSI mid-level code to - remove it (scsi remove-single-device) and you really need a few bytes of - memory. - The ADD command allows you to configure a device before you tell the - mid-level code to try detection. - - -I'd suggest reviewing the output of /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? after changing -settings to see if everything changed as requested. - - -5. Configuration via boot/module parameters -------------------------------------------- -With the DC390, the driver reads its EEPROM settings and tries to use them. -But you may want to override the settings prior to being able to change the -driver configuration via /proc/scsi/tmscsim/?. -If you do have another AM53C974 based adapter, that's even the only -possibility to adjust settings before you are able to write to the -/proc/scsi/tmscsim/? pseudo-file, e.g. if you want to use another -adapter ID than 7. -(BTW, the log message "DC390: No EEPROM found!" is normal without a DC390.) -For this purpose, you can pass options to the driver before it is initialised -by using kernel or module parameters. See lilo(8) or modprobe(1) manual -pages on how to pass params to the kernel or a module. -[NOTE: Formerly, it was not possible to override the EEPROM supplied - settings of the DC390 with cmd line parameters. This has changed since - 2.0e7] - -The syntax of the params is much shorter than the syntax of the /proc/... -interface. This makes it a little bit more difficult to use. However, long -parameter lines have the risk to be misinterpreted and the length of kernel -parameters is limited. - -As the support for non-DC390 adapters works by simulating the values of the -DC390 EEPROM, the settings are given in a DC390 BIOS' way. - -Here's the syntax: -tmscsim=AdaptID,SpdIdx,DevMode,AdaptMode,TaggedCmnds,DelayReset - -Each of the parameters is a number, containing the described information: - -* AdaptID: The SCSI ID of the host adapter. Must be in the range 0..7 - Default is 7. - -* SpdIdx: The index of the maximum speed as in the DC390 BIOS. The values - 0..7 mean 10, 8.0, 6.7, 5.7, 5.0, 4.0, 3.1 and 2 MHz resp. Default is - 0 (10.0 MHz). - -* DevMode is a bit mapped value describing the per-device features. It - applies to all devices. (Sync, Disc and TagQ will only apply, if the - device supports it.) The meaning of the bits (* = default): - - Bit Val(hex) Val(dec) Meaning - *0 0x01 1 Parity check - *1 0x02 2 Synchronous Negotiation - *2 0x04 4 Disconnection - *3 0x08 8 Send Start command on startup. (Not used) - *4 0x10 16 Tagged Command Queueing - - As usual, the desired value is obtained by adding the wanted values. If - you want to enable all values, e.g., you would use 31(0x1f). Default is 31. - -* AdaptMode is a bit mapped value describing the enabled adapter features. - - Bit Val(hex) Val(dec) Meaning - *0 0x01 1 Support more than two drives. (Not used) - *1 0x02 2 Use DOS compatible mapping for HDs greater than 1GB. - *2 0x04 4 Reset SCSI Bus on startup. - *3 0x08 8 Active Negation: Improves SCSI Bus noise immunity. - 4 0x10 16 Immediate return on BIOS seek command. (Not used) - (*)5 0x20 32 Check for LUNs >= 1. - -* TaggedCmnds is a number indicating the maximum number of Tagged Commands. - It is the binary logarithm - 1 of the actual number. Max is 4 (32). - Value Number of Tagged Commands - 0 2 - 1 4 - 2 8 - *3 16 - 4 32 - -* DelayReset is the time in seconds (minus 0.5s), the adapter waits, after a - bus reset. Default is 1 (corresp. to 1.5s). - -Example: - modprobe tmscsim tmscsim=6,2,31 -would set the adapter ID to 6, max. speed to 6.7 MHz, enable all device -features and leave the adapter features, the number of Tagged Commands -and the Delay after a reset to the defaults. - -As you can see, you don't need to specify all of the six params. -If you want values to be ignored (i.e. the EEprom settings or the defaults -will be used), you may pass -2 (not 0!) at the corresponding position. - -The defaults (7,0,31,15,3,1) are aggressive to allow good performance. You -can use tmscsim=7,0,31,63,4,0 for maximum performance, if your SCSI chain -allows it. If you meet problems, you can use tmscsim=-1 which is a shortcut -for tmscsim=7,4,9,15,2,10. - - -6. Potential improvements -------------------------- -Most of the intended work on the driver has been done. Here are a few ideas -to further improve its usability: - -* Cleanly separate per-Target and per-LUN properties (DCB) -* More intelligent abort() routine -* Use new_eh code (Linux-2.1+) -* Have the mid-level (ML) code (and not the driver) handle more of the - various conditions. -* Command queueing in the driver: Eliminate Query list and use ML instead. -* More user friendly boot/module param syntax - -Further investigation on these problems: - -* Driver hangs with sync readcdda (xcdroast) (most probably VIA PCI error) - -Known problems: -Please see http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/dc390/problems.html - -* Changing the parameters of multi-lun by the tmscsim/? interface will - cause problems, cause these settings are mostly per Target and not per LUN - and should be updated accordingly. To be fixed for 2.0d24. -* CDRs (eg Yam CRW4416) not recognized, because some buggy devices don't - recover from a SCSI reset in time. Use a higher delay or don't issue - a SCSI bus reset on driver initialization. See problems page. - For the CRW4416S, this seems to be solved with firmware 1.0g (reported by - Jean-Yves Barbier). -* TEAC CD-532S not being recognized. (Works with 1.11). -* Scanners (eg. Astra UMAX 1220S) don't work: Disable Sync Negotiation. - If this does not help, try echo "INQUIRY t" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/? (t - replaced by the dev index of your scanner). You may try to reset your SCSI - bus afterwards (echo "RESET" >/proc/scsi/tmscsim/?). - The problem seems to be solved as of 2.0d18, thanks to Andreas Rick. -* If there is a valid partition table, the driver will use it for determining - the mapping. If there's none, a reasonable mapping (Symbios-like) will be - assumed. Other operating systems may not like this mapping, though - it's consistent with the BIOS' behaviour. Old DC390 drivers ignored the - partition table and used a H/S = 64/32 or 255/63 translation. So if you - want to be compatible to those, use this old mapping when creating - partition tables. Even worse, on bootup the DC390 might complain if other - mappings are found, so auto rebooting may fail. -* In some situations, the driver will get stuck in an abort loop. This is a - bad interaction between the Mid-Layer of Linux' SCSI code and the driver. - Try to disable DsCn, if you meet this problem. Please contact me for - further debugging. - - -7. Bug reports, debugging and updates -------------------------------------- -Whenever you have problems with the driver, you are invited to ask the -author for help. However, I'd suggest reading the docs and trying to solve -the problem yourself, first. -If you find something, which you believe to be a bug, please report it to me. -Please append the output of /proc/scsi/scsi, /proc/scsi/tmscsim/? and -maybe the DC390 log messages to the report. - -Bug reports should be send to me (Kurt Garloff <dc390@garloff.de>) as well -as to the linux-scsi list (<linux-scsi@vger.kernel.org>), as sometimes bugs -are caused by the SCSI mid-level code. - -I will ask you for some more details and probably I will also ask you to -enable some of the DEBUG options in the driver (tmscsim.c:DC390_DEBUGXXX -defines). The driver will produce some data for the syslog facility then. -Beware: If your syslog gets written to a SCSI disk connected to your -AM53C974, the logging might produce log output again, and you might end -having your box spending most of its time doing the logging. - -The latest version of the driver can be found at: - http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/dc390/ - ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/garloff/linux/dc390/ - - -8.
