# 259065 07-Dec-2013 gjb

- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the
10.0-RELEASE cycle.
- Update __FreeBSD_version [1]
- Set branch name to -RC1

[1] 10.0-CURRENT __FreeBSD_version value ended at '55', so
start releng/10.0 at '100' so the branch is started with
a value ending in zero.

# 233805 02-Apr-2012 ambrisko

Move struct megasas_sge from mfi_ioctl.h to mfivar.h so we can
remove including machine/bus.h. Add some more mfi_ prefixes to
avoid name space pollution.

This should address the last tinderbox issues.


# 233711 30-Mar-2012 ambrisko

MFhead_mfi r227068
First cut of new HW support from LSI and merge into FreeBSD.
Supports Drake Skinny and ThunderBolt cards.
MFhead_mfi r227574
Style
MFhead_mfi r227579
Use bus_addr_t instead of uintXX_t.
MFhead_mfi r227580
MSI support
MFhead_mfi r227612
More bus_addr_t and remove "#ifdef __amd64__".
MFhead_mfi r227905
Improved timeout support from Scott.
MFhead_mfi r228108
Make file.
MFhead_mfi r228208
Fixed botched merge of Skinny support and enhanced handling
in call back routine.
MFhead_mfi r228279
Remove superfluous !TAILQ_EMPTY() checks before TAILQ_FOREACH().
MFhead_mfi r228310
Move mfi_decode_evt() to taskqueue.
MFhead_mfi r228320
Implement MFI_DEBUG for 64bit S/G lists.
MFhead_mfi r231988
Restore structure layout by reverting the array header to
use [0] instead of [1].
MFhead_mfi r232412
Put wildcard pattern later in the match table.
MFhead_mfi r232413
Use lower case for hexadecimal numbers to match surrounding
style.
MFhead_mfi r232414
Add more Thunderbolt variants.
MFhead_mfi r232888
Don't act on events prior to boot or when shutting down.
Add hw.mfi.detect_jbod_change to enable or disable acting
on JBOD type of disks being added on insert and removed on
removing. Switch hw.mfi.msi to 1 by default since it works
better on newer cards.
MFhead_mfi r233016
Release driver lock before taking Giant when deleting children.
Use TAILQ_FOREACH_SAFE when items can be deleted. Make code a
little simplier to follow. Fix a couple more style issues.
MFhead_mfi r233620
Update mfi_spare/mfi_array with the actual number of elements
for array_ref and pd. Change these max. #define names to avoid
name space collisions. This will require an update to mfiutil
It avoids mfiutil having to do a magic calculation.

Add a note and #define to state that a "SYSTEM" disk is really
what the firmware calls a "JBOD" drive.

Thanks to the many that helped, LSI for the initial code drop,
mav, delphij, jhb, sbruno that all helped with code and testing.


# 196200 13-Aug-2009 scottl

ntroduce mfiutil, a basic utility for managing LSI SAS-RAID & Dell PERC5/6
controllers. Controller, array, and drive status can be checked, basic
attributes can be changed, and arrays and spares can be created and deleted.
Controller firmware can also be flashed.

This does not replace MegaCLI, found in ports, as that is officially sanctioned
and supported by LSI and includes vastly more functionality. However, mfiutil
is open source and guaranteed to provide basic functionality, which can be
especially useful if you have a problem and can't get MegaCLI to work.

# 184897 12-Nov-2008 ambrisko

- Fix from jhb for failing I/O request when bus_dmamap_load fails.
- Fix to ioctl path in which the length could be 0 which means
no data in/out from LSI.
- Fix to ioctl path in which the data in the sense data space
of the ioctl packet is a really a pointer to some location in
user-space. From LSI re-worked a bit by me.
- Add HW support for next gen cards from LSI.

Thanks to LSI for their support!

# 179392 28-May-2008 ambrisko

Add support to talk to the LSI ioctl path on with FreeBSD 32 bit app's
on amd64. Note the only difference is the iovec32 part so I use the
native structure for everything else.

Also I plan to MFC all the changes in -current to 7-stable and 6-stable
shortly since I've been running them. This does not include the cam
changes.

# 178968 12-May-2008 scottl

Add support for management apps. Work around an apparent firmware bug that
results in hung i/o if more than 128 commands are scheduled for an array.


# 169451 10-May-2007 scottl

Collapse the mfi_ld object. Add an ioctl to help management apps map
array Id's to FreeBSD device names.


# 165225 14-Dec-2006 ambrisko

Some relatively minor changes and bug fixes:
1) s/mi/mfi/ in FreeBSD ioctl path
2) add in "\n" on various failure messages
3) cap the length of time to abort an AEN command
4) fix passing sense data back to user to make Dell's Linux firmware
upgrade tool happy.
5) bump the MFI_POLL_TIMEOUT_SECS from 10s to 50s since the
firmware flash command can take ~40s to return.

This is some clean-up and enables RAID firmware to updated via Dell's
tool. Note Dell's tool requires the updates to the Linux emulator
that has been done in -current with TLS etc.

I need to discuss with scottl how to better submit mfi commands to
the firmware via the ioctl path so we don't do it in polled mode.


# 164281 14-Nov-2006 ambrisko

- Add in FreeBSD native ioctl that models the Linux version.
- Add a translation so the Linux ioctl's don't conflict with
the FreeBSD definition.
- Assume Linux 32bit emulation on amd64.
This was tested on i386 and amd64 with the 32bit Linux MegaCli.
Eventually we should do a 32bit native FreeBSD translation app.


# 158737 18-May-2006 ambrisko

Add in a bunch of things to the mfi driver:
- Linux ioctl support, with the other Linux changes MegaCli
will run if you mount linprocfs & linsysfs then set
sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.12 or similar. This works
on i386. It should work on amd64 but not well tested yet.
StoreLib may or may not work. Remember to kldload mfi_linux.
- Add in AEN (Async Event Notification) support so we can
get messages from the firmware when something happens.
Not all messages are in defined in event detail. Use
event_log to try to figure out what happened.
- Try to implement something like SIGIO for StoreLib. Since
mrmonitor doesn't work right I can't fully test it. StoreLib
works best with the rh9 base. In theory mrmonitor isn't
needed due to native driver support of AEN :-)
Now we can configure and monitor the RAID better.

# 157114 25-Mar-2006 scottl

Add a driver for the new LSI MegaRAID SAS controller family. The 'MFI' name
is derived from the phrase 'MegaRAID Firmware Interface' used by LSI. This
driver provides a block interface to logical disks on the card and a minimal
management device. It is MPSAFE, INTR_FAST, and 64-bit capable.

Thanks to Dell for providing hardware to test with and IronPort for
sponsoring the work.
