# 225736 22-Sep-2011 kensmith

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

# 152919 29-Nov-2005 scottl

Separate the hardware definitions into ipsreg.h so they can be used by
future userland tools.


# 150535 25-Sep-2005 scottl

Overhaul error handling in the IPS driver. Don't use a magic value for
driver-induced errors, instead be better about propagating error status
upwards. Add more error definitions, courtesy of the linux driver. Fix
a command leak in the ioctl handler. Re-arrange some of the command handlers
to localize error handling.

# 140923 28-Jan-2005 scottl

Lock the IPS driver and bring it out from under Giant. Also do some
significant clean up and optimizations:
- don't call bioq_disksort() on every command, the hardware will do that for
us.
- remove all of the complicated bio deferral code. bio's that can't be
serviced immediately can just wait on the bioq.
- Only reserve one command object for doing control commands to the card.
This simplifies a lot of code and significantly reduces the size of the
command struct.
- Allocate commands out of a slab instead of embedding them into the softc.
- Call the command action method directly instead of having ips_get_free_cmd()
call it indirectly.

# 129859 30-May-2004 scottl

Use a unique malloc type rather than M_DEVBUF.


# 119418 24-Aug-2003 obrien

Use __FBSDID().
Also some minor style cleanups.


# 117126 01-Jul-2003 scottl

Mega busdma API commit.

Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.

sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.

If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

# 114902 11-May-2003 scottl

Add the 'ips' driver for the IBM (now Adaptec) ServeRAID controller
series. This driver was generously developed and released by David
Jeffreys and Adaptec. I've updated it to work with 5.x and fixed a
few bugs.
