2006-09-23[SCSI] aacraid: README updateMark Haverkamp
Received from Mark Salyzyn: This patch to the driver's documentation adds a few new product entries, sorts the entries on OEM lines first for easy searching, followed by product id order to make it easier to compare against the open source pci list. The driver has 'family match' so is somewhat future proof, no code changes are required to recognize the new products.

2006-07-28[SCSI] megaraid_{mm,mbox}: 64-bit DMA capability checkerJu, Seokmann
This patch contains - a fix for 64-bit DMA capability check in megaraid_{mm,mbox} driver. - includes changes (going back to 32-bit DMA mask if 64-bit DMA mask failes) suggested by James with previous patch. - addition of SATA 150-4/6 as commented by Vasily Averin. With patch, the driver access PCIconfiguration space with dedicated offset to read a signature. If the signature read, it means that the controller has capability to handle 64-bit DMA. Without this patch, the driver used to blindly claim 64-bit DMA capability. The issue has been reported by Vasily Averin [vvs@sw.ru]. Thank you Vasily for the reporting.

The patch adds support for a ZCR controller (Device ID : 0x413). It also has a critical bug fix : Disable controller interrupt before firing INIT cmd to FW. Interrupt is enabled after required initialization is over. This is done to ensure that driver is ready to handle interrupts when it is generated by the controller.

2006-04-27[SCSI] megaraid_{mm,mbox}: fix a bug in reset handlerJu, Seokmann
When abort failed, the driver gets reset handleer called. In the reset handler, driver calls 'scsi_done()' callback for same SCSI command packet (struct scsi_cmnd) multiple times if there are multiple SCSI command packet in the pend_list. More over, if there are entry in the pend_lsit with IOCTL packet associated, the driver returns it to wrong free_list so that, in turn, the driver could end up with 'NULL pointer dereference..' during I/O command building with incorrect resource. Also, the patch contains several minor/cosmetic changes besides this.

2006-04-10[PATCH] move ->eh_strategy_handler to the transport classChristoph Hellwig
Overriding the whole EH code is a per-transport, not per-host thing. Move ->eh_strategy_handler to the transport class, same as ->eh_timed_out. Downside is that scsi_host_alloc can't check for the total lack of EH anymore, but the transition period from old EH where we needed it is long gone already.

This patch defines a new template to represent each type of controllers (identified by the processor used). The template has members that is set with appropriate values during driver initialisation.
