119 The QLogic HBA cards all contain a tiny 16-bit RISC-like processor and
120 varying sizes of SRAM. Each card contains a Bus Interface Unit (BIU)
121 as appropriate for the host bus (SBus or PCI). The BIUs allow access
122 to a set of dual-ranked 16 bit incoming and outgoing mailbox registers

130 (or to external bus drivers that connect to a SCSI bus), or to connect
131 to a Fibre Channel bus.
149 HBA has 8 dual-ranked 16 bit mailbox registers, mostly for out-of-band
160 mailboxes may be things like notification of SCSI Bus resets, or that the
161 Fabric Name server has sent a change notification, or even that a specific

214 There are some additional basic assumptions that this driver makes- primarily
221 and bus specific outer modules (machine dependent).
234 The platform/bus specific modules (and definitions) depend on each
236 module's use. Generally a platform module set is split into a bus
237 dependent module (where configuration is begun from and bus specific
238 support functions reside) and relatively thin platform specific layer
242 For ease of bus specific access issues, a centralized soft state
244 soft state structure contains a machine/bus dependent vector (mdvec)

306 Part of the isp_reset call may cause callbacks out to the bus dependent

310 only the bus dependent module may have the information that says how
