****************************************************************
|
|
* This driver supports the Adaptec I2O RAID and DPT SmartRAID V I2O boards.
|
|
*
|
|
* CREDITS:
|
|
* The original linux driver was ported to Linux by Karen White while at
|
|
* Dell Computer. It was ported from Bob Pasteur's (of DPT) original
|
|
* non-Linux driver. Mark Salyzyn and Bob Pasteur consulted on the original
|
|
* driver.
|
|
*
|
|
* 2.0 version of the driver by Deanna Bonds and Mark Salyzyn.
|
|
*
|
|
* HISTORY:
|
|
* The driver was originally ported to linux version 2.0.34
|
|
*
|
|
* V2.0 Rewrite of driver. Re-architectured based on i2o subsystem.
|
|
* This was the first full GPL version since the last version used
|
|
* i2osig headers which were not GPL. Developer Testing version.
|
|
* V2.1 Internal testing
|
|
* V2.2 First released version
|
|
*
|
|
* V2.3
|
|
* Changes:
|
|
* Added Raptor Support
|
|
* Fixed bug causing system to hang under extreme load with
|
|
* management utilities running (removed GFP_DMA from kmalloc flags)
|
|
*
|
|
*
|
|
* V2.4 First version ready to be submitted to be embedded in the kernel
|
|
* Changes:
|
|
* Implemented suggestions from Alan Cox
|
|
* Added calculation of resid for sg layer
|
|
* Better error handling
|
|
* Added checking underflow conditions
|
|
* Added DATAPROTECT checking
|
|
* Changed error return codes
|
|
* Fixed pointer bug in bus reset routine
|
|
* Enabled hba reset from ioctls (allows a FW flash to reboot and use the new
|
|
* FW without having to reboot)
|
|
* Changed proc output
|
|
*
|
|
* TODO:
|
|
* Add 64 bit Scatter Gather when compiled on 64 bit architectures
|
|
* Add sparse lun scanning
|
|
* Add code that checks if a device that had been taken offline is
|
|
* now online (at the FW level) when test unit ready or inquiry
|
|
* command from scsi-core
|
|
* Add proc read interface
|
|
* busrescan command
|
|
* rescan command
|
|
* Add code to rescan routine that notifies scsi-core about new devices
|
|
* Add support for C-PCI (hotplug stuff)
|
|
* Add ioctl passthru error recovery
|
|
*
|
|
* NOTES:
|
|
* The DPT card optimizes the order of processing commands. Consequently,
|
|
* a command may take up to 6 minutes to complete after it has been sent
|
|
* to the board.
|
|
*
|
|
* The files dpti_ioctl.h dptsig.h osd_defs.h osd_util.h sys_info.h are part of the
|
|
* interface files for Adaptec's management routines. These define the structures used
|
|
* in the ioctls. They are written to be portable. They are hard to read, but I need
|
|
* to use them 'as is' or I can miss changes in the interface.
