Notes for CPQFCTS driver for Compaq Tachyon TS
2
Fibre Channel Host Bus Adapter, PCI 64-bit, 66MHz
3
for Linux (RH 6.1, 6.2 kernel 2.2.12-32, 2.2.14-5)
4
SMP tested
5
Tested in single and dual HBA configuration, 32 and 64bit busses,
6
33 and 66MHz.  Only supports FC-AL.
7
SEST size 512 Exchanges (simultaneous I/Os) limited by module kmalloc()
8
        max of 128k bytes contiguous.
9
 
10
Ver 2.1.1  Oct 18, 2001
11
   * reinitialize Cmnd->SCp.sent_command (used to identify commands as
12
     passthrus) on calling scsi_done, since the scsi mid layer does not
13
     use (or reinitialize) this field to prevent subsequent comands from
14
     having it set incorrectly.
15
 
16
Ver 2.1.0  Aug 27, 2001
17
   * Revise driver to use new kernel 2.4.x PCI DMA API, instead of
18
     virt_to_bus().  (enables driver to work w/ ia64 systems with >2Gb RAM.)
19
     Rework main scatter-gather code to handle cases where SG element
20
     lengths are larger than 0x7FFFF bytes and use as many scatter
21
     gather pages as necessary. (Steve Cameron)
22
   * Makefile changes to bring cpqfc into line w/ rest of SCSI drivers
23
     (thanks to Keith Owens)
24
 
25
Ver 2.1.2  Jul 22, 2002
26
   * initialize DumCmnd.lun (used as LUN index in fcFindLoggedInPort())
27
 
28
Ver 2.0.5  Aug 06, 2001
29
   * Reject non-existent luns in the driver rather than letting the
30
     hardware do it.  (some HW behaves differently than others in this area.)
31
   * Changed Makefile to rely on "make dep" instead of explicit dependencies
32
   * ifdef'ed out fibre channel analyzer triggering debug code
33
   * fixed a jiffies wrapping issue
34
 
35
Ver 2.0.4  Aug 01, 2001
36
   * Incorporated fix for target device reset from Steeleye
37
   * Fixed passthrough ioctl so it doesn't hang.
38
   * Fixed hang in launch_FCworker_thread() that occurred on some machines.
39
   * Avoid problem when number of volumes in a single cabinet > 8
40
 
41
Ver 2.0.2  July 23, 2001
42
   Changed the semiphore changes so the driver would compile in 2.4.7.
43
   This version is for 2.4.7 and beyond.
44
 
45
Ver 2.0.1  May  7, 2001
46
   Merged version 1.3.6 fixes into version 2.0.0.
47
 
48
Ver 2.0.0  May   7, 2001
49
  Fixed problem so spinlock is being initialized to UNLOCKED.
50
  Fixed updated driver so it compiles in the 2.4 tree.
51
 
52
 Ver 1.3.6  Feb  27, 2001
53
   Added Target_Device_Reset function for SCSI error handling
54
   Fixed problem with not reseting addressing mode after implicit logout
55
 
56
 
57
Ver 1.3.4  Sep   7, 2000
58
  Added Modinfo information
59
  Fixed problem with statically linking the driver
60
 
61
Ver 1.3.3, Aug  23, 2000
62
  Fixed device/function number in ioctl
63
 
64
Ver 1.3.2, July 27, 2000
65
  Add include for Alpha compile on 2.2.14 kernel (cpq*i2c.c)
66
  Change logic for different FCP-RSP sense_buffer location for HSG80 target
67
  And search for Agilent Tachyon XL2 HBAs (not finished! - in test)

Installation:
92
copy file cpqfcTS.patch to /usr/src/linux
93
patch -p1 < cpqfcTS.patch
94
make menuconfig
95
  (select SCSI low-level, Compaq FC HBA)
96
make dep
97
make modules
98
make modules_install
99
 
100
e.g. insmod -f cpqfc
101
 
102
Due to Fabric/switch delays, driver requires 4 seconds

*************************
225
 
226
If a GBIC of type Short-wave, Long-wave, or Copper is detected, it will
227
print out; otherwise, "none" is displayed.  If the cabling is correct
228
and a loop circuit is completed, you should see "Monitor"; otherwise,
229
"LoopFail" (on open circuit) or some LPSM number/state with bit 3 set.
230
 
231
 
232
ERRATA:
233
1. Normally, Linux Scsi queries FC devices with INQUIRY strings.  All LUNs
234
found according to INQUIRY should get READ commands at sector 0 to find
235
partition table, etc.  Older kernels only query the first 4 devices.  Some
236
Linux kernels only look for one LUN per target (i.e. FC device).
237
 
238
2. Physically removing a device, or a malfunctioning system which hides a
239
device, leads to a 30-second timeout and subsequent _abort call.
240
In some process contexts, this will hang the kernel (crashing the system).
241
Single bit errors in frames and virtually all hot plugging events are
242
gracefully handled with internal driver timer and Abort processing.
243
 
244
3. Some SCSI drives with error conditions will not handle the 7 second timeout
245
in this software driver, leading to infinite retries on timed out SCSI commands.
246
The 7 secs balances the need to quickly recover from lost frames (esp. on sequence
247
initiatives) and time needed by older/slower/error-state drives in responding.
248
This can be easily changed in "Exchanges[].timeOut".
249
 
250
4. Due to the nature of FC soft addressing, there is no assurance that the
251
same LUNs (drives) will have the same path (e.g. /dev/sdb1) from one boot to
252
next.  Dynamic soft address changes (i.e. 24-bit FC port_id) are
253
supported during run time (e.g. due to hot plug event) by the use of WWN to
254
SCSI Nexus (channel/target/LUN) mapping.
255
 
256
5. Compaq RA4x00 firmware version 2.54 and later supports SSP (Selective
257
Storage Presentation), which maps LUNs to a WWN.  If RA4x00 firmware prior
258
2.54 (e.g. older controller) is used, or the FC HBA is replaced (another WWN
259
is used), logical volumes on the RA4x00 will no longer be visible.
