Merge tag 'scsi-misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi
Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
"This update includes the usual round of major driver updates (hpsa,
be2iscsi, hisi_sas, zfcp, cxlflash). There's a new incarnation of hpsa
called smartpqi for which a driver is added, there's some cleanup work
of the ibm vscsi target and updates to libfc, plus a whole host of
minor fixes and updates and finally the removal of several ISA drivers
which seem not to have been used for years"

This - means that CDROM changers work now! Fixed a bug in the - handling of command-line arguments when loaded as a module. - Also put all the header data in in2000.h where it belongs. - There are no longer any differences between this driver in - the 2.1.xx source tree and the 2.0.xx tree, as of 2.0.31 - and 2.1.45 (or is it .46?) - this makes things much easier - for me... - -UPDATE NEWS: version 1.30 - 14 Oct 96 - - Fixed a bug in the code that sets the transfer direction - bit (DESTID_DPD in the WD_DESTINATION_ID register). There - are quite a few SCSI commands that do a write-to-device; - now we deal with all of them correctly. Thanks to Joerg - Dorchain for catching this one. - -UPDATE NEWS: version 1.29 - 24 Sep 96 - - The memory-mapped hardware on the card is now accessed via - the 'readb()' and 'readl()' macros - required by the new - memory management scheme in the 2.1.x kernel series. - As suggested by Andries Brouwer, 'bios_param()' no longer - forces an artificial 1023 track limit on drives. Also - removed some kludge-code left over from struggles with - older (buggy) compilers. - -UPDATE NEWS: version 1.28 - 07 May 96 - - Tightened up the "interrupts enabled/disabled" discipline - in 'in2000_queuecommand()' and maybe 1 or 2 other places. - I _think_ it may have been a little too lax, causing an - occasional crash during full moon.

Advice from Bill Earnest resulted - in much better detection of cards, more efficient usage - of the fifo, and (hopefully) faster data transfers. The - jury is still out on speed - I hope it's improved some. - One nifty new feature is a cool way of doing disconnect/ - reselect. The driver defaults to what I'm calling - 'adaptive disconnect' - meaning that each command is - evaluated individually as to whether or not it should be - run with the option to disconnect/reselect (if the device - chooses), or as a "SCSI-bus-hog". When several devices - are operating simultaneously, disconnects are usually an - advantage. In a single device system, or if only 1 device - is being accessed, transfers usually go faster if disconnects - are not allowed. - - - -The default arguments (you get these when you don't give an 'in2000' -command-line argument, or you give a blank argument) will cause -the driver to do adaptive disconnect, synchronous transfers, and a -minimum of debug messages. If you want to fool with the options, -search for 'setup_strings' near the top of the in2000.c file and -check the 'hostdata->args' section in in2000.h - but be warned! Not -everything is working yet (some things will never work, probably). -I believe that disabling disconnects (DIS_NEVER) will allow you -to choose a LEVEL2 value higher than 'L2_BASIC', but I haven't -spent a lot of time testing this. You might try 'ENABLE_CLUSTERING' -to see what happens: my tests showed little difference either way. -There's also a define called 'DEFAULT_SX_PER'; this sets the data -transfer speed for the asynchronous mode. I've put it at 500 ns -despite the fact that the card could handle settings of 376 or -252, because higher speeds may be a problem with poor quality -cables or improper termination; 500 ns is a compromise.
