- Remove code duplication by adding two new functions to execute prepared
queue entry via either mbox or request queue and wait for result.
- Since the new function executing via request queue sleeps any way, make
it sleep also in case of overflows or handle shortages. It should make it
more reliable and less affecting other less flexible request queue users.
- Turn isp_target_put_entry() into not target-specific isp_send_entry().
- Make handling of responses with control handles more universal.
- Move RQSTYPE_RPT_ID_ACQ handling into new function.
- Inline isp_handle_other_response(), becoming trivial after above.
- Clean the list of IOCBs from pre-24xx ones.
Before this change in case of request queue overflow driver just froze the
device queue for 100ms to retry after. It was pretty bad for performance.
This change introduces SIM queue freezing when free space on the request
queue drops below 255 entries (worst case of maximum I/O size S/G list),
checking for a chance to release it on I/O completion. If the queue still
get overflowed somehow, the old mechanism is still in place, just with
delay reduced to 10ms.
With the earlier queue length increase overflows should not happen often,
but it is still easily reachable on synthetic tests.
- Allocate 256 handlers more than payload commands for management purposes.
- Increase maximum number of handlers from 8K to 16K by tuning the format.
- Just to be safe limit the number of payload commands to 16K - 256.
- Limit number of target exchanges in mixed mode to the number of atpds.
- If we still somehow get out of atpds -- return BUSY, since we really are.
- Make isp_start() to set all the IOCB fields aside of S/G list, removing
extra information from isp_send_cmd(), now only doing S/G lists and sending.
- Turn DMA setup/free from being card and PCI-specific into OS-specific,
instead add new card-specific method for isp_send_cmd(). Previously this
function was a monster handling all the cards.
- Remove double error code translation.
This removes 288KB (36%) of the driver code and zillions of hacks and
workarounds, making single driver uniformly support several different
generations of hardware interfaces, not counting minor card variations.
After years of the hopeless fight, I don't think it worth to continue
support for hardware obsolete for 15-20 years. Instead much cleaner
now code should allow to move forward toward better locking, multiple
queues and other cool features.
All the remaining Qlogic cards starting from 4Gb 24xx to 32Gb 27xx use
the same hardware/firmware interface with minor incremental improvements,
so it seems to be a good new starting point. Except one PCI-X model all
all of them are PCIe and so still usable in modern systems.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Instead of using GID_FT SNS request to get list of registered FCP ports,
use GID_PT to get list of all Nx_Ports, and then use GFF_ID and/or GFT_ID
requests to find whether they are FCP and target capable.
The problem with old approach is that GID_FT does not report ports without
FC-4 type registered. In particular it was impossible to boot OS from
FreeBSD FC target using QLogic FC BIOS, since one does not register FC-4
type even on new cards and so ignored by old code as incompatible.
As a side bonus this allows initiator to skip pointless logins to other
initiators by fetching that information from SNS instead.
In case some switches do not implement GFF_ID/GFT_ID correctly, add sysctls
to disable that functionality. I handled broken GFF_ID of my Brocade 200E,
but there may be other switches with different bugs.
Linux also uses GID_PT, but GFF_ID is disabled by default there, and GFT_ID
is not supported.

This change fixes DMA resource leak on driver unload. Also it removes
DMA resources allocation for hardcoded number of requests before fetching
the real number from firmware. Also it prepares ground for more flexible
IRQs allocation according to firmware capabilities.

Firmware automatically logs in only to local loop ports, and those ports
can be easily identified without extra flag by zero domain and area IDs.

This should close the race between request arriving on new target mode
virtual port and its scanner thread finally fetch its address for request
routing.
This is cosmetics that simplifies identification of new ports on FC switch.
It would be good to use target name from CTL here instead of hostname, but
it is not passed here through CAM now.

Before this change virtual ports control IOCBs were executed synchronously
via Execute IOCB mailbox command. It required exclusive use of scratch
space of driver and mailbox registers of the hardware. Because of that
shared resources use this code could not really sleep, having to spin for
completion, blocking any other operation.
This change introduces new asynchronous design, sending the IOCBs directly
on request queue and gracefully waiting for their return on response queue.
Returned IOCBs are identified with unified handle space from r292725.
I am not sure why this was split long ago, but I see no reason for it.
At this point this unification just slightly reduces memory usage, but
as next step I plan to reuse shared handle space for other IOCB types.
- Make scan aborted by event restart immediately and infinitely.
- Improve handling of some loop events from firmware.
- Remove loop down timer, adding its functionality to scanner thread.
- Some more unification and simplification.
Hacks to enable target mode there complicated code, while didn't really
work. And for outdated hardware fixing it is not really interesting.
Initiator mode tested with Qlogic 1080 adapter is still working fine.
For those chips we are not receiving login events, adding initiators
based on ATIO requests. But there is no port ID in that structure, so
in fabric mode we have to explicitly fetch it from firmware to be able
to do normal scan after that.
This change simplifies and unifies port adding/updating for loop and
fabric scanners. It also fixes problems with scanning restarts due to
concurrent port databases changes. It also fixes many cosmetic issues.
Modern cards in most cases operate abstract port handles, that have no
any relation to real loop IDs. Leave loopid used only where it really
goes about local loop IDs.
While there, fix few more cases where LUNs were still printed in decimal.
For the most of chips (except anscient ones) port handlers have no relation
to port IDs. In such situation old code scanning first 125 handlers was
quite naive. Instead of doing that, send to chip single request to get full
list of port handlers available on specific virtual port and scan only them.
Old code had problems with case of several virtual ports enabled, when port
handlers allocated from global address space could easily go above 125.
This change was successfully tested on 23xx, 24xx and 25xx chips in loop
mode with 4 virtual initiator ports, each seing 50 virtual target ports.
Now on 24xx and above chips it is really possible to simulate several
virtual FC ports with single physical one. For example, it allows to
configure several targets in ctl.conf, assign each of them to separate
virtual port, and let user to control access to them with switch zoning.
I still doubt that all problems are solved there, but at now it passes
at least basic tests.
Aside from cleaner and more consistent code, this allows ports to be both
target and initiator same time, and easily switch from any role to any.

Previous implementation was too fragile to initiator parameters changes.
In case of port role change it could not survive different handle assigned
to the same initiator by firmware, even though initiator was logged out.
The new implementation should be more resillient to this kind of problems,
trying to work in any situation and only warn user about suspisious events.

Records with target_mode == 1 are allocated from the end of portdb, so it
seems logical to start search from the end not traverse whole array.

Delaying isp_reqodx update, we should be ready to update it every time
we read it. Otherwise requests using several indexes may be requeued
ndefinitely without ever updating the variable.

every time. The purpose of that register is unlikely output queue overflow
detection, so read it only when its last known (and probably stale now)
value signals overflow.
This reduces CPU load and lock congestion and rises bottleneck in CTL
while doing target mode via two 8Gbps ports from 100K to 120K IOPS.
MISC CHANGES
Add a new async event- ISP_TARGET_NOTIFY_ACK, that will guarantee
eventual delivery of a NOTIFY ACK. This is tons better than just
ignoring the return from isp_notify_ack and hoping for the best.
Clean up the lower level lun enable code to be a bit more sensible.
Fix a botch in isp_endcmd which was messing up the sense data.
Fix notify ack for SRR to use a sensible error code in the case
of a reject.
Clean up and make clear what kind of firmware we've loaded and
what capabilities it has.
-----------
FULL (252 byte) SENSE DATA
In CTIOs for the ISP, there's only a limimted amount of space
to load SENSE DATA for associated CHECK CONDITIONS (24 or 26
bytes). This makes it difficult to send full SENSE DATA that can
be up to 252 bytes.
Implement MODE 2 responses which have us build the FCP Response
in system memory which the ISP will put onto the wire directly.
On the initiator side, the same problem occurs in that a command
status response only has a limited amount of space for SENSE DATA.
This data is supplemented by status continuation responses that
the ISP pushes onto the response queue after the status response.
We now pull them all together so that full sense data can be
returned to the periph driver.
This is supported on 23XX, 24XX and 25XX cards.
This is also preparation for doing >16 byte CDBs.
-----------
FC TAPE
Implement full FC-TAPE on both initiator and target mode side. This
capability is driven by firmware loaded, board type, board NVRAM
settings, or hint configuration options to enable or disable. This
is supported for 23XX, 24XX and 25XX cards.
On the initiator side, we pretty much just have to generate a command
reference number for each command we send out. This is FCP-4 compliant
in that we do this per ITL nexus to generate the allowed 1 thru 255
CRN.
In order to support the target side of FC-TAPE, we now pay attention
to more of the PRLI word 3 parameters which will tell us whether
an initiator wants confirmed responses. While we're at it, we'll
pay attention to the initiator view too and report it.
On sending back CTIOs, we will notice whether the initiator wants
confirmed responses and we'll set up flags to do so.
If a response or data frame is lost the initiator sends us an SRR
(Sequence Retransmit Request) ELS which shows up as an SRR notify
and all outstanding CTIOs are nuked with SRR Received status. The
SRR notify contains the offset that the initiator wants us to restart
the data transfer from or to retransmit the response frame.
If the ISP driver still has the CCB around for which the data segment
or response applies, it will retransmit.
However, we typically don't know about a lost data frame until we
send the FCP Response and the initiator totes up counters for data
moved and notices missing segments. In this case we've already
completed the data CCBs already and sent themn back up to the periph
driver. Because there's no really clean mechanism yet in CAM to
handle this, a hack has been put into place to complete the CTIO
CCB with the CAM_MESSAGE_RECV status which will have a MODIFY DATA
POINTER extended message in it. The internal ISP target groks this
and ctl(8) will be modified to deal with this as well.
At any rate, the data is retransmitted and an an FCP response is
sent. The whole point here is to successfully complete a command
so that you don't have to depend on ULP (SCSI) to have to recover,
which in the case of tape is not really possible (hence the name
FC-TAPE).
