# 257050 24-Oct-2013 mav

MFC r256552:
Unify periph invalidation and destruction reporting.
Print message containing device model and serial number on invalidation.


# 256215 09-Oct-2013 mav

MFC r249438:
Use full freeze while PMP does hard reset. This is only cosmetical change.


# 251096 29-May-2013 mav

MFC r250508:
Disable sending Early R_OK on SiI3726/SiI3826 port multipliers.
With "cached read" HDD testing and multiple ports busy on a SATA
host controller, 3726/3826 PMP will very rarely drop a deferred
R_OK that was intended for the host. Symptom will be all 5 drives
under test will timeout, get reset, and recover.


# 249160 05-Apr-2013 mav

MFC r247161:
Hide SEMB port of the SiI3826 Port Multiplier by default to avoid extra
errors while it tries to talk via I2C to usually missing external SEP.
There is tunable to enable it back when needed.


# 249132 05-Apr-2013 mav

MFC r227293 (by ed):
Mark MALLOC_DEFINEs static that have no corresponding MALLOC_DECLAREs.

This means that their use is restricted to a single C file.


# 248085 09-Mar-2013 marius

MFC: r227309 (partial)

Mark all SYSCTL_NODEs static that have no corresponding SYSCTL_DECLs.

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.


# 241937 23-Oct-2012 mav

MFC r241404:
Remove 'periph == NULL' check from bunch of periph drivers.
This condition can never be true as functions are called from single place
and the checks just pollute the code and confuse Clang Static Analyzer.


# 237305 20-Jun-2012 mav

MFC r236602, r236613:
Tune and add some missing CAM_DEBUG() points for better consistency.


# 236765 08-Jun-2012 mav

MFC r235982:
Add tunable/sysctl kern.cam.pmp.hide_special, controlling whether special
PMP ports such as PMP configuration or SEMB should be exposed or hidden.
These ports were always hidden before as useless and sometimes promatic.
But with updated ses driver supporting SEMB it is no longer so straight.
Keep ports hidden by default to avoid probe request ttimeouts if SEP is
not connected to PMP's SEMB via I2C, that is very often situation.


# 225736 22-Sep-2011 kensmith

Copy head to stable/9 as part of 9.0-RELEASE release cycle.

Approved by: re (implicit)


# 220778 18-Apr-2011 mav

Remove some used variables.

Found with: Clang Static Analyzer


# 220602 13-Apr-2011 mav

Improve SATA Asynchronous Notification feature support in CAM:
- make SATA SIMs announce capabilities to handle SDB with Notification bit;
- make PMP driver honor this SIMs capability;
- make SATA XPT to negotiate and enable this feature for ATAPI devices.

This feature allows supporting SATA ATAPI devices to inform system about
some events happened, that may require attention. In my case this allows
LG GH22LS50 SATA DVR-RW drive to report tray open/close events. Events
reported to CAM in form of AC_SCSI_AEN async. Further they could be used
as a hints for checking device status and reporting media change to upper
layers, for example, via spoiling mechanism of GEOM.


# 208819 05-Jun-2010 mav

Fix double free on error.

Found with: Coverity Prevent(tm)
CID: 4573


# 207499 02-May-2010 mav

Make SATA XPT negotiate and enable some additional SATA features, such as:
- device initiated power management (some devices support only this way);
- Automatic Partial to Slumber Transition (more power saving);
- DMA auto-activation (expected to slightly improve performance).
More features could be added later, when hardware supports.


# 203385 02-Feb-2010 mav

- Use separate buffer for identify data fetching. We can't use main buffer
here if device already running, as data need to be formatted before use.
- Remove some saved_ccb variables. They are unused now.


# 203108 28-Jan-2010 mav

MFp4: Large set of CAM inprovements.

- Unify bus reset/probe sequence. Whenever bus attached at boot or later,
CAM will automatically reset and scan it. It allows to remove duplicate
code from many drivers.
- Any bus, attached before CAM completed it's boot-time initialization,
will equally join to the process, delaying boot if needed.
- New kern.cam.boot_delay loader tunable should help controllers that
are still unable to register their buses in time (such as slow USB/
PCCard/ CardBus devices), by adding one more event to wait on boot.
- To allow synchronization between different CAM levels, concept of
requests priorities was extended. Priorities now split between several
"run levels". Device can be freezed at specified level, allowing higher
priority requests to pass. For example, no payload requests allowed,
until PMP driver enable port. ATA XPT negotiate transfer parameters,
periph driver configure caching and so on.
- Frozen requests are no more counted by request allocation scheduler.
It fixes deadlocks, when frozen low priority payload requests occupying
slots, required by higher levels to manage theit execution.
- Two last changes were holding proper ATA reinitialization and error
recovery implementation. Now it is done: SATA controllers and Port
Multipliers now implement automatic hot-plug and should correctly
recover from timeouts and bus resets.
- Improve SCSI error recovery for devices on buses without automatic sense
reporting, such as ATAPI or USB. For example, it allows CAM to wait, while
CD drive loads disk, instead of immediately return error status.
- Decapitalize diagnostic messages and make them more readable and sensible.
- Teach PMP driver to limit maximum speed on fan-out ports.
- Make boot wait for PMP scan completes, and make rescan more reliable.
- Fix pass driver, to return CCB to user level in case of error.
- Increase number of retries in cd driver, as device may return several UAs.


# 200218 07-Dec-2009 mav

MFp4;
- Cleanup kernel messages, mostly PMP.
- Took references on devices, while PMP reinitializes them, to not let them
go and distort freeze reference counting.


# 199747 24-Nov-2009 mav

MFp4:
- Extend XPT-SIM transfer settings control API. Now it allows to report to
SATA SIM number of tags supported by each device, implement ATA mode and
SATA revision negotiation for both SATA and PATA SIMs.
- Make ahci(4) and siis(4) to use submitted maximum tag number, when
scheduling requests. It allows to support NCQ on devices with lower tags
count then controller supports.
- Make PMP driver to report attached devices connection speeds.
- Implement ATA mode negotiation between user settings, device and
controller capabilities.


# 199321 16-Nov-2009 mav

Disable PortMultiplier Async Notifications for time of ports reset.
They are useless at that time, but confuse Marvell AHCI.

Add quirk for SiI57XX Port Multipliers, to hide extra port.


# 198708 31-Oct-2009 mav

MFp4:
- Reduce code duplication in ATA XPT and PMP driver.
- Move PIO size setting from ada driver to ATA XPT. It is XPT business
to negotiate transfer details. ada driver is now stateless.
- Report PIO size to SIM. It is required for correct PATA SIM operation.
- Tune PMP scan timings. It workarounds some problems with SiI.
- If reset hapens during PMP initialization - restart it.
- Introduce early-initialized periph drivers, which are used during initial
scan process. Use it for xpt, probe, aprobe and pmp. It gives pmp chance
to finish scan before mountroot and numerate devices in right order.


# 198389 23-Oct-2009 mav

MFp4:
Move Port Multiplier support code out of ATA XPT into pmp periph driver.
This is convinient, as PMP itself is a bus target and has own state.
