Add the Online Controller Reset (OCR) to the Driver. 186 OCR is the new feature for megaraid_sas driver which 187 will allow the fw to do the chip reset which will not 188 affact the OS behavious. 189 190 To add the OCR support, driver need to do: 191 a). reset the controller chips -- Xscale and Gen2 which 192 will change the function calls and add the reset function 193 related to this two chips. 194 195 b). during the reset, driver will store the pending cmds 196 which not returned by FW to driver's pending queue. Driver 197 will re-issue those pending cmds again to FW after the OCR 198 finished. 199 200 c). In driver's timeout routine, driver will report to 201 OS as reset. Also driver's queue routine will block the 202 cmds until the OCR finished. 203 204 d). in Driver's ISR routine, if driver get the FW state as 205 state change, FW in Failure status and FW support online controller 206 reset (OCR), driver will start to do the controller reset. 207 208 e). In driver's IOCTL routine, the application cmds will wait for the 209 OCR to finish, then issue the cmds to FW. 210 211 f). Before driver kill adapter, driver will do last chance of 212 OCR to see if driver can bring back the FW. 213 2142. Add the support update flag to the driver to tell LSI megaraid_sas 215 application which driver will support the device update. So application 216 will not need to do the device update after application add/del the device 217 from the system. 2183. In driver's timeout routine, driver will do three time reset if fw is in 219 failed state. Driver will kill adapter if can't bring back FW after the 220 this three times reset. 2214. Add the input parameter max_sectors to 1MB support to our GEN2 controller. 222 customer can use the input paramenter max_sectors to add 1MB support to GEN2 223 controller. 224 2251 Release Date : Thur.

Rollback the sense info implementation 335 Sense buffer ptr data type in the ioctl path is reverted back 336 to u32 * as in previous versions of driver. 337 3382. Fixed the driver frame count. 339 When Driver sent wrong frame count to firmware. As this 340 particular command is sent to drive, FW is seeing continuous 341 chip resets and so the command will timeout. 342 3433. Add the new controller(1078DE) support to the driver 344 and Increase the max_wait to 60 from 10 in the controller 345 operational status. With this max_wait increase, driver will 346 make sure the FW will finish the pending cmd for KDUMP case. 347 3481 Release Date : Thur.

Added module parameter "poll_mode_io" to support for "polling" 368 (reduced interrupt operation). In this mode, IO completion 369 interrupts are delayed. At the end of initiating IOs, the 370 driver schedules for cmd completion if there are pending cmds 371 to be completed. A timer-based interrupt has also been added 372 to prevent IO completion processing from being delayed 373 indefinitely in the case that no new IOs are initiated. 374 3751 Release Date : Fri.

Setting the max_sectors_per_req based on max SGL supported by the 384 FW. Prior versions calculated this value from controller info 385 (max_sectors_1, max_sectors_2). For certain controllers/FW, 386 this was resulting in a value greater than max SGL supported 387 by the FW. Issue was first reported by users running LUKS+XFS 388 with megaraid_sas. Thanks to RB for providing the logs and 389 duplication steps that helped to get to the root cause of the 390 issue. 2. Increased MFI_POLL_TIMEOUT_SECS to 60 seconds from 391 10. FW may take a max of 60 seconds to respond to the INIT 392 cmd. 393 3941 Release Date : Fri.

Under heavy IO mid-layer prints "DRIVER_TIMEOUT" errors 477 478 Fix: The driver is now throttling IO. 479 Checks added in megasas_queue_command to know if FW is able to 480 process commands within timeout period. If number of retries 481 is 2 or greater,the driver stops sending cmd to FW temporarily. IO is 482 resumed if pending cmd count reduces to 16 or 5 seconds has elapsed 483 from the time cmds were last sent to FW. 484 485ii. FW enables WCE bit in Mode Sense cmd for drives that are configured 486 as WriteBack. The OS may send "SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE" cmd when Logical 487 Disks are exposed with WCE=1. User is advised to enable Write Back 488 mode only when the controller has battery backup. At this time 489 Synhronize cache is not supported by the FW.

Added new memory management module to support the IOCTL memory allocation. For IOCTL we try to allocate from the memory pool created during driver initialization. If mem pool is empty then we allocate at run time. 5052. Added check in megasas_queue_command and dpc/isr routine to see if we have already declared adapter dead 506 (hw_crit_error=1). If hw_crit_error==1, now we donot accept any processing of pending cmds/accept any cmd from OS 507 5081 Release Date : Mon Oct 02 11:21:32 PDT 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5092 Current Version : 00.00.03.05 5103 Older Version : 00.00.03.04 511 512i. PCI_DEVICE macro used 513 514 Convert the pci_device_id-table of the megaraid_sas-driver to the PCI_DEVICE-macro, to safe some lines. 515 516 - Henrik Kretzschmar <henne@nachtwindheim.de> 517ii. All compiler warnings removed 518iii. megasas_ctrl_info struct reverted to 3.02 release 519iv. Default value of megasas_dbg_lvl set to 0 520v. Removing in megasas_exit the sysfs entry created for megasas_dbg_lvl 521vi. In megasas_teardown_frame_pool(), cmd->frame was passed instead of 522 cmd->sense to pci_pool_free. Fixed.

Reduced by 1 max cmds sent to FW from Driver to make the reply_q_sz same 531 as Max Cmds FW can support 532 5331 Release Date : Tue Aug 22 16:33:14 PDT 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5342 Current Version : 00.00.03.03 5353 Older Version : 00.00.03.02 536 537i. Send stop adapter to FW & Dump pending FW cmds before declaring adapter dead. 538 New varible added to set dbg level. 539ii. Disable interrupt made as fn pointer as they are different for 1068 / 1078 540iii. Frame count optimization. Main frame can contain 2 SGE for 64 bit SGLs and 541 3 SGE for 32 bit SGL 542iv. Tasklet added for cmd completion 543v. If FW in operational state before firing INIT, now we send RESET Flag to FW instead of just READY. This is used to do soft reset. 544vi. megasas_ctrl_prop structure updated (based on FW struct) 545vii. Added print : FW now in Ready State during initialization 546 5471 Release Date : Sun Aug 06 22:49:52 PDT 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5482 Current Version : 00.00.03.02 5493 Older Version : 00.00.03.01 550 551i.

Support for 1078 type (ppc IOP) controller, device id : 0x60 added. 586 During initialization, depending on the device id, the template members 587 are initialized with function pointers specific to the ppc or 588 xscale controllers. 589 590 -Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 591 5921 Release Date : Fri Feb 03 14:16:25 PST 2006 - Sumant Patro 593 <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5942 Current Version : 00.00.02.04 5953 Older Version : 00.00.02.02 596i. Register 16 byte CDB capability with scsi midlayer 597 598 "This patch properly registers the 16 byte command length capability of the 599 megaraid_sas controlled hardware with the scsi midlayer. All megaraid_sas 600 hardware supports 16 byte CDB's." 601 602 -Joshua Giles <joshua_giles@dell.com> 603 6041 Release Date : Mon Jan 23 14:09:01 PST 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 6052 Current Version : 00.00.02.02 6063 Older Version : 00.00.02.01 607 608i. New template defined to represent each family of controllers (identified by processor used). 609 The template will have defintions that will be initialised to appropritae values for a specific family of controllers. The template definition has four function pointers. During driver initialisation the function pointers will be set based on the controller family type. This change is done to support new controllers that has different processors and thus different register set. 610 611 -Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 612 6131 Release Date : Mon Dec 19 14:36:26 PST 2005 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 6142 Current Version : 00.00.02.00-rc4 6153 Older Version : 00.00.02.01 616 617i. Code reorganized to remove code duplication in megasas_build_cmd. 618 619 "There's a lot of duplicate code megasas_build_cmd. Move that out of the different codepathes and merge the reminder of megasas_build_cmd into megasas_queue_command" 620 621 - Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> 622 623ii. Defined MEGASAS_IOC_FIRMWARE32 for code paths that handles 32 bit applications in 64 bit systems. 624 625 "MEGASAS_IOC_FIRMWARE can't be redefined if CONFIG_COMPAT is set, we need to define a MEGASAS_IOC_FIRMWARE32 define so native binaries continue to work" 626 627 - Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> 628
