Suganath Prabu S 79c74d03d5 scsi: mpt3sas: Add Atomic RequestDescriptor support on Aero
If the Aero HBA supports Atomic Request Descriptors, it sets the Atomic
Request Descriptor Capable bit in the IOCCapabilities field of the IOCFacts
Reply message. Driver uses an Atomic Request Descriptor as an alternative
method for posting an entry onto a request queue.

The posting of an Atomic Request Descriptor is an atomic operation,
providing a safe mechanism for multiple processors on the host to post
requests without synchronization. This Atomic Request Descriptor format is
identical to first 32 bits of Default Request Descriptor and uses only 32
bits.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
