Add the Online Controller Reset (OCR) to the Driver. 200 OCR is the new feature for megaraid_sas driver which 201 will allow the fw to do the chip reset which will not 202 affact the OS behavious. 203 204 To add the OCR support, driver need to do: 205 a). reset the controller chips -- Xscale and Gen2 which 206 will change the function calls and add the reset function 207 related to this two chips. 208 209 b). during the reset, driver will store the pending cmds 210 which not returned by FW to driver's pending queue. Driver 211 will re-issue those pending cmds again to FW after the OCR 212 finished. 213 214 c). In driver's timeout routine, driver will report to 215 OS as reset. Also driver's queue routine will block the 216 cmds until the OCR finished. 217 218 d). in Driver's ISR routine, if driver get the FW state as 219 state change, FW in Failure status and FW support online controller 220 reset (OCR), driver will start to do the controller reset. 221 222 e). In driver's IOCTL routine, the application cmds will wait for the 223 OCR to finish, then issue the cmds to FW. 224 225 f). Before driver kill adapter, driver will do last chance of 226 OCR to see if driver can bring back the FW. 227 2282. Add the support update flag to the driver to tell LSI megaraid_sas 229 application which driver will support the device update. So application 230 will not need to do the device update after application add/del the device 231 from the system. 2323. In driver's timeout routine, driver will do three time reset if fw is in 233 failed state. Driver will kill adapter if can't bring back FW after the 234 this three times reset. 2354. Add the input parameter max_sectors to 1MB support to our GEN2 controller. 236 customer can use the input paramenter max_sectors to add 1MB support to GEN2 237 controller. 238 2391 Release Date : Thur.

Rollback the sense info implementation 349 Sense buffer ptr data type in the ioctl path is reverted back 350 to u32 * as in previous versions of driver. 351 3522. Fixed the driver frame count. 353 When Driver sent wrong frame count to firmware. As this 354 particular command is sent to drive, FW is seeing continuous 355 chip resets and so the command will timeout. 356 3573. Add the new controller(1078DE) support to the driver 358 and Increase the max_wait to 60 from 10 in the controller 359 operational status. With this max_wait increase, driver will 360 make sure the FW will finish the pending cmd for KDUMP case. 361 3621 Release Date : Thur.

Added module parameter "poll_mode_io" to support for "polling" 382 (reduced interrupt operation). In this mode, IO completion 383 interrupts are delayed. At the end of initiating IOs, the 384 driver schedules for cmd completion if there are pending cmds 385 to be completed. A timer-based interrupt has also been added 386 to prevent IO completion processing from being delayed 387 indefinitely in the case that no new IOs are initiated. 388 3891 Release Date : Fri.

Setting the max_sectors_per_req based on max SGL supported by the 398 FW. Prior versions calculated this value from controller info 399 (max_sectors_1, max_sectors_2). For certain controllers/FW, 400 this was resulting in a value greater than max SGL supported 401 by the FW. Issue was first reported by users running LUKS+XFS 402 with megaraid_sas. Thanks to RB for providing the logs and 403 duplication steps that helped to get to the root cause of the 404 issue. 2. Increased MFI_POLL_TIMEOUT_SECS to 60 seconds from 405 10. FW may take a max of 60 seconds to respond to the INIT 406 cmd. 407 4081 Release Date : Fri.

Under heavy IO mid-layer prints "DRIVER_TIMEOUT" errors 479 480 The driver now waits for 10 seconds to elapse instead of 5 (as in 481 previous release) to resume IO. 482 4831 Release Date : Mon Feb. 05 11:35:24 PST 2007 - 484 (emaild-id:megaraidlinux@lsi.com) 485 Sumant Patro 486 Bo Yang 4872 Current Version : 00.00.03.08 4883 Older Version : 00.00.03.07 489 490i. Under heavy IO mid-layer prints "DRIVER_TIMEOUT" errors 491 492 Fix: The driver is now throttling IO. 493 Checks added in megasas_queue_command to know if FW is able to 494 process commands within timeout period. If number of retries 495 is 2 or greater,the driver stops sending cmd to FW temporarily. IO is 496 resumed if pending cmd count reduces to 16 or 5 seconds has elapsed 497 from the time cmds were last sent to FW. 498 499ii. FW enables WCE bit in Mode Sense cmd for drives that are configured 500 as WriteBack. The OS may send "SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE" cmd when Logical 501 Disks are exposed with WCE=1. User is advised to enable Write Back 502 mode only when the controller has battery backup. At this time 503 Synhronize cache is not supported by the FW. Driver will short-cycle 504 the cmd and return success without sending down to FW. 505 5061 Release Date : Sun Jan. 14 11:21:32 PDT 2007 - 507 Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com>/Bo Yang 5082 Current Version : 00.00.03.07 5093 Older Version : 00.00.03.06 510 511i. bios_param entry added in scsi_host_template that returns disk geometry 512 information. 513 5141 Release Date : Fri Oct 20 11:21:32 PDT 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com>/Bo Yang 5152 Current Version : 00.00.03.06 5163 Older Version : 00.00.03.05 517 5181. 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. 5192. Added check in megasas_queue_command and dpc/isr routine to see if we have already declared adapter dead 520 (hw_crit_error=1). If hw_crit_error==1, now we donot accept any processing of pending cmds/accept any cmd from OS 521 5221 Release Date : Mon Oct 02 11:21:32 PDT 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5232 Current Version : 00.00.03.05 5243 Older Version : 00.00.03.04 525 526i. PCI_DEVICE macro used 527 528 Convert the pci_device_id-table of the megaraid_sas-driver to the PCI_DEVICE-macro, to safe some lines. 529 530 - Henrik Kretzschmar <henne@nachtwindheim.de> 531ii. All compiler warnings removed 532iii. megasas_ctrl_info struct reverted to 3.02 release 533iv. Default value of megasas_dbg_lvl set to 0 534v. Removing in megasas_exit the sysfs entry created for megasas_dbg_lvl 535vi. In megasas_teardown_frame_pool(), cmd->frame was passed instead of 536 cmd->sense to pci_pool_free. Fixed.

Added Reboot notify 544ii. Reduced by 1 max cmds sent to FW from Driver to make the reply_q_sz same 545 as Max Cmds FW can support 546 5471 Release Date : Tue Aug 22 16:33:14 PDT 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5482 Current Version : 00.00.03.03 5493 Older Version : 00.00.03.02 550 551i. Send stop adapter to FW & Dump pending FW cmds before declaring adapter dead. 552 New varible added to set dbg level. 553ii. Disable interrupt made as fn pointer as they are different for 1068 / 1078 554iii. Frame count optimization. Main frame can contain 2 SGE for 64 bit SGLs and 555 3 SGE for 32 bit SGL 556iv. Tasklet added for cmd completion 557v. 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. 558vi. megasas_ctrl_prop structure updated (based on FW struct) 559vii. Added print : FW now in Ready State during initialization 560 5611 Release Date : Sun Aug 06 22:49:52 PDT 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5622 Current Version : 00.00.03.02 5633 Older Version : 00.00.03.01 564 565i.

Added support for ZCR controller. 572 573 New device id 0x413 added. 574 575ii. Bug fix : Disable controller interrupt before firing INIT cmd to FW. 576 577 Interrupt is enabled after required initialization is over. 578 This is done to ensure that driver is ready to handle interrupts when 579 it is generated by the controller. 580 581 -Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 582 5831 Release Date : Wed Feb 03 14:31:44 PST 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5842 Current Version : 00.00.02.04 5853 Older Version : 00.00.02.04 586 587i. Remove superflous instance_lock 588 589 gets rid of the otherwise superflous instance_lock and avoids an unsave 590 unsynchronized access in the error handler. 591 592 - Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> 593 594 5951 Release Date : Wed Feb 03 14:31:44 PST 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 5962 Current Version : 00.00.02.04 5973 Older Version : 00.00.02.04 598 599i. Support for 1078 type (ppc IOP) controller, device id : 0x60 added. 600 During initialization, depending on the device id, the template members 601 are initialized with function pointers specific to the ppc or 602 xscale controllers. 603 604 -Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 605 6061 Release Date : Fri Feb 03 14:16:25 PST 2006 - Sumant Patro 607 <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 6082 Current Version : 00.00.02.04 6093 Older Version : 00.00.02.02 610i. Register 16 byte CDB capability with scsi midlayer 611 612 "This patch properly registers the 16 byte command length capability of the 613 megaraid_sas controlled hardware with the scsi midlayer. All megaraid_sas 614 hardware supports 16 byte CDB's." 615 616 -Joshua Giles <joshua_giles@dell.com> 617 6181 Release Date : Mon Jan 23 14:09:01 PST 2006 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 6192 Current Version : 00.00.02.02 6203 Older Version : 00.00.02.01 621 622i. New template defined to represent each family of controllers (identified by processor used). 623 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. 624 625 -Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 626 6271 Release Date : Mon Dec 19 14:36:26 PST 2005 - Sumant Patro <Sumant.Patro@lsil.com> 6282 Current Version : 00.00.02.00-rc4 6293 Older Version : 00.00.02.01 630 631i. Code reorganized to remove code duplication in megasas_build_cmd. 632 633 "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" 634 635 - Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> 636 637ii. Defined MEGASAS_IOC_FIRMWARE32 for code paths that handles 32 bit applications in 64 bit systems. 638 639 "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" 640 641 - Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> 642
