MFC r249622:
Make siis(4) and mvs(4) send bus_get_dma_tag() requests to parent buses
passing real bus' child pointers instead of grandchilds.

Big MFC of the physbio changes necessary for unmapped I/O. These changes
have been in production at Netflix for several months with significant
success.

MFC r246713:

Reform the busdma API so that new types may be added without modifying
every architecture's busdma_machdep.c. It is done by unifying the
bus_dmamap_load_buffer() routines so that they may be called from MI
code. The MD busdma is then given a chance to do any final processing
in the complete() callback.

MFC r249538:
Some compilers issue a warning when wider integer is casted to narrow
pointer. Supposedly shut down the warning by casting through
uintptr_t.

MFC r251479:
Simplify the checking of flags for cam_periph_mapmem(). This gets rid of
a lot of code redundancy and grossness at very minor expense.

MFC r251837:
MFC r251842:
Add infrastructure for doing compatibility shims, as has been sorely
needed for the last 10 years. Far too much of the internal API is
exposed, and every small adjustment causes applications to stop working.
To kick this off, bump the API version to 0x17 as should have been done
with r246713, but add shims to compensate. Thanks to the shims, there
should be no visible change in application behavior.

MFC r251661:
Replicate r242422 from ata(4) to mvs(4):
Only four specific ATA PIO commands transfer several sectors per DRQ block
(interrupt). All other ATA PIO commands transfer one sector or 512 bytes
at one time. Hardcode these exceptions in mvs(4).
This fixes timeout of READ LOG EXT command used by `smartctl -x /dev/adaX`.
Also it fixes timeout of DOWNLOAD_MICROCODE on `camcontrol fwdownload`.


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.


237378 21-Jun-2012 mav

MFC r236952:
- Limit r214102 workaround to only x86. On arm it causes more problems
then solves because of cache coherency issues. This fixes periodic error
messages on console and command timeouts.
- Patch SATA PHY configuration for 65nm SoCs to improve SNR same as
Linux does.


236947 12-Jun-2012 mav

MFC r236847:
Partially revert r236666:
Return PROTO_ATA protocol in response to XPT_PATH_INQ.

smartmontools uses it to identify ATA devices and I don't know any other
place now where it is important. It could probably use XPT_GDEV_TYPE
instead for more accurate protocol information, but let it live for now.


236790 09-Jun-2012 mav

r236666:
ATA/SATA controllers have no idea about protocol of the connected device
until transport will do some probe actions (at least soft reset).
Make ATA/SATA SIMs to not report bogus and confusing PROTO_ATA protocol.
Make ATA/SATA transport to fill that gap by reporting protocol to SIM with
XPT_SET_TRAN_SETTINGS and patching XPT_GET_TRAN_SETTINGS results if needed.


236541 04-Jun-2012 mav

MFC r235333:
Add two functions xpt_batch_start() and xpt_batch_done() to the CAM SIM KPI
to allow drivers to handle request completion directly without passing
them to the CAM SWI thread removing extra context switch.
Modify all ATA/SATA drivers to use them.


235743 21-May-2012 jhb

Toss bogus mergeinfo.

MFC r235634

Fix and update battery status bits according to linux driver


232511 04-Mar-2012 raj

MFC r230865:

Adjust mvs(4) to handle interrupt cause reg depending on the actual number of
channels available

- current code treats bits 4:7 in 'SATAHC interrupt mask' and 'SATAHC
interrupt cause' as flags for SATA channels 2 and 3

- for embedded SATA controllers (SoC) these bits have been marked as reserved
in datasheets so far, but for some new and upcoming chips they are used for
purposes other than SATA

MFC r227701, r227847 and r227849:
Move the device_delete_all_children() function from usb_util.c
to kern/subr_bus.c. Simplify this function so that it no longer
depends on malloc() to execute. Rename device_delete_all_children()
into device_delete_children(). Identify a few other places where
it makes sense to use device_delete_children().

According to SATA specification, when Serial ATA Enclosure Management Bridge
(SEMB) is unable to communicate to Storage Enclosure Processor (SEP), in
response to hard and soft resets it should among other things return value
0x7F in Status register. The weird side is that it means DRQ bit set, which
tells that reset request is not completed. It would be fine if SEMB was the
only device on port. But if SEMB connected to PMP or built into it, it may
block access to other devices sharing same SATA port.

Make some tunings/fixes to soft-reset handling to workaround the issue:
- ahci(4): request CLO on the port after soft reset to ignore DRQ bit;
- siis(4): gracefully reinitialize port after soft reset timeout (hardware
doesn't detect reset request completion in this case);
- mvs(4): if PMP is used, send dummy soft-reset to the PMP port to make it
clear DRQ bit for us.

For now this makes quirks in ata_pmp.c, hiding SEMB ports of SiI3726/SiI4726
PMPs, less important. Further, if hardware permit, I hope to implement real
SEMB support.


220830 19-Apr-2011 mav

Fix some English grammar.


220829 19-Apr-2011 mav

According to specification. device should respond to COMRESET with COMINIT
in no more then 10ms. If we detected no device presence within that time,
there is no reason to wait longer.


220822 19-Apr-2011 mav

Properly handle memory allocation errors during error recovery.


220615 14-Apr-2011 mav

Refactor hard-reset implementation in mvs(4).

Instead of spinning in a tight loop for up to 15 seconds, polling for device
readiness while it spins up, return reset completion just after PHY reports
"connect well" or 100ms connection timeout. If device was found, use callout
for checking device readiness with 100ms period up to full 31 second timeout.

This fixes system freeze for 5-10 seconds on drives hot plug-in.


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.


220569 12-Apr-2011 mav

Implement automatic SCSI sense fetching for mvs(4).

Make few improvements/changes to ATAPI PIO support to pass most of scgcheck
(cdrtools) tests.


220097 28-Mar-2011 mav

Update mvs(4) driver to work over FDT's simplebus(4) bus.


214102 20-Oct-2010 mav

Workaround strange situation when EDMA_RESQIP register returns zero instead
of proper value. It caused bunch of "EMPTY CRPB" messages and potentially
may cause premature requests completion, which could cause data corruption.
For most cases it seems enough to just reread register to get proper value.
To protect against worse cases - erase processed queue entries with
impossible values and ignore them if problem still happen.


214099 20-Oct-2010 mav

Some style cleanup:
- remove commented debugging code;
- wrap long lines.


212732 16-Sep-2010 mav

Fix panic, when due to some kind of congestion on FIS-based switching
port multiplier some command triggers false positive timeout, but then
completes normally.

MFC after: 2 weeks


210471 25-Jul-2010 mav

Export PCI IDs of ATA/SATA controllers through CAM and ata(4) layers to
GEOM. This information needed for proper soft-RAID's on-disk metadata
reading and writing.

Plug memory leak to silent Coverity. Error is still not really handled.

Import mvs(4) - Marvell 88SX50XX/88SX60XX/88SX70XX/SoC SATA controllers
driver for CAM ATA subsystem. This driver supports same hardware as
atamarvell, ataadaptec and atamvsata drivers from ata(4), but provides
many additional features, such as NCQ, PMP, etc.
