  				 INTRODUCTION
  
  BusLogic, Inc. designed and manufactured a variety of high performance SCSI
  host adapters which share a common programming interface across a diverse
  collection of bus architectures by virtue of their MultiMaster ASIC technology.
  BusLogic was acquired by Mylex Corporation in February 1996, but the products
  supported by this driver originated under the BusLogic name and so that name is
  retained in the source code and documentation.
  
  This driver supports all present BusLogic MultiMaster Host Adapters, and should
  support any future MultiMaster designs with little or no modification.  More
  recently, BusLogic introduced the FlashPoint Host Adapters, which are less
  costly and rely on the host CPU, rather than including an onboard processor.
  Despite not having an onboard CPU, the FlashPoint Host Adapters perform very
  well and have very low command latency.  BusLogic has recently provided me with
  the FlashPoint Driver Developer's Kit, which comprises documentation and freely
  redistributable source code for the FlashPoint SCCB Manager.  The SCCB Manager
  is the library of code that runs on the host CPU and performs functions
  analogous to the firmware on the MultiMaster Host Adapters.  Thanks to their
  having provided the SCCB Manager, this driver now supports the FlashPoint Host
  Adapters as well.
  
  My primary goals in writing this completely new BusLogic driver for Linux are
  to achieve the full performance that BusLogic SCSI Host Adapters and modern
  SCSI peripherals are capable of, and to provide a highly robust driver that can
  be depended upon for high performance mission critical applications.  All of
  the major performance features can be configured from the Linux kernel command
  line or at module initialization time, allowing individual installations to
  tune driver performance and error recovery to their particular needs.
  
  The latest information on Linux support for BusLogic SCSI Host Adapters, as
  well as the most recent release of this driver and the latest firmware for the
  BT-948/958/958D, will always be available from my Linux Home Page at URL

  "http://sourceforge.net/projects/dandelion/".

  
  Bug reports should be sent via electronic mail to "lnz@dandelion.com".  Please
  include with the bug report the complete configuration messages reported by the
  driver and SCSI subsystem at startup, along with any subsequent system messages
  relevant to SCSI operations, and a detailed description of your system's
  hardware configuration.
  
  Mylex has been an excellent company to work with and I highly recommend their
  products to the Linux community.  In November 1995, I was offered the
  opportunity to become a beta test site for their latest MultiMaster product,
  the BT-948 PCI Ultra SCSI Host Adapter, and then again for the BT-958 PCI Wide
  Ultra SCSI Host Adapter in January 1996.  This was mutually beneficial since
  Mylex received a degree and kind of testing that their own testing group cannot
  readily achieve, and the Linux community has available high performance host
  adapters that have been well tested with Linux even before being brought to
  market.  This relationship has also given me the opportunity to interact
  directly with their technical staff, to understand more about the internal
  workings of their products, and in turn to educate them about the needs and
  potential of the Linux community.
  
  More recently, Mylex has reaffirmed the company's interest in supporting the
  Linux community, and I am now working on a Linux driver for the DAC960 PCI RAID
  Controllers.  Mylex's interest and support is greatly appreciated.
  
  Unlike some other vendors, if you contact Mylex Technical Support with a
  problem and are running Linux, they will not tell you that your use of their
  products is unsupported.  Their latest product marketing literature even states
  "Mylex SCSI host adapters are compatible with all major operating systems
  including: ... Linux ...".

  				DRIVER FEATURES
  
  o Configuration Reporting and Testing
  
    During system initialization, the driver reports extensively on the host
    adapter hardware configuration, including the synchronous transfer parameters
    requested and negotiated with each target device.  AutoSCSI settings for
    Synchronous Negotiation, Wide Negotiation, and Disconnect/Reconnect are
    reported for each target device, as well as the status of Tagged Queuing.
    If the same setting is in effect for all target devices, then a single word
    or phrase is used; otherwise, a letter is provided for each target device to
    indicate the individual status.  The following examples
    should clarify this reporting format:
  
      Synchronous Negotiation: Ultra
  
        Synchronous negotiation is enabled for all target devices and the host
        adapter will attempt to negotiate for 20.0 mega-transfers/second.
  
      Synchronous Negotiation: Fast
  
        Synchronous negotiation is enabled for all target devices and the host
        adapter will attempt to negotiate for 10.0 mega-transfers/second.
  
      Synchronous Negotiation: Slow
  
        Synchronous negotiation is enabled for all target devices and the host
        adapter will attempt to negotiate for 5.0 mega-transfers/second.
  
      Synchronous Negotiation: Disabled
  
        Synchronous negotiation is disabled and all target devices are limited to
        asynchronous operation.
  
      Synchronous Negotiation: UFSNUUU#UUUUUUUU
  
        Synchronous negotiation to Ultra speed is enabled for target devices 0
        and 4 through 15, to Fast speed for target device 1, to Slow speed for
        target device 2, and is not permitted to target device 3.  The host
        adapter's SCSI ID is represented by the "#".
  
      The status of Wide Negotiation, Disconnect/Reconnect, and Tagged Queuing
      are reported as "Enabled", Disabled", or a sequence of "Y" and "N" letters.
  
  o Performance Features
  
    BusLogic SCSI Host Adapters directly implement SCSI-2 Tagged Queuing, and so
    support has been included in the driver to utilize tagged queuing with any
    target devices that report having the tagged queuing capability.  Tagged
    queuing allows for multiple outstanding commands to be issued to each target
    device or logical unit, and can improve I/O performance substantially.  In
    addition, BusLogic's Strict Round Robin Mode is used to optimize host adapter
    performance, and scatter/gather I/O can support as many segments as can be
    effectively utilized by the Linux I/O subsystem.  Control over the use of
    tagged queuing for each target device as well as individual selection of the
    tagged queue depth is available through driver options provided on the kernel
    command line or at module initialization time.  By default, the queue depth
    is determined automatically based on the host adapter's total queue depth and
    the number, type, speed, and capabilities of the target devices found.  In
    addition, tagged queuing is automatically disabled whenever the host adapter
    firmware version is known not to implement it correctly, or whenever a tagged
    queue depth of 1 is selected.  Tagged queuing is also disabled for individual
    target devices if disconnect/reconnect is disabled for that device.
  
  o Robustness Features
  
    The driver implements extensive error recovery procedures.  When the higher
    level parts of the SCSI subsystem request that a timed out command be reset,
    a selection is made between a full host adapter hard reset and SCSI bus reset
    versus sending a bus device reset message to the individual target device
    based on the recommendation of the SCSI subsystem.  Error recovery strategies
    are selectable through driver options individually for each target device,
    and also include sending a bus device reset to the specific target device
    associated with the command being reset, as well as suppressing error
    recovery entirely to avoid perturbing an improperly functioning device.  If
    the bus device reset error recovery strategy is selected and sending a bus
    device reset does not restore correct operation, the next command that is
    reset will force a full host adapter hard reset and SCSI bus reset.  SCSI bus
    resets caused by other devices and detected by the host adapter are also
    handled by issuing a soft reset to the host adapter and re-initialization.
    Finally, if tagged queuing is active and more than one command reset occurs
    in a 10 minute interval, or if a command reset occurs within the first 10
    minutes of operation, then tagged queuing will be disabled for that target
    device.  These error recovery options improve overall system robustness by
    preventing individual errant devices from causing the system as a whole to
    lock up or crash, and thereby allowing a clean shutdown and restart after the
    offending component is removed.
  
  o PCI Configuration Support
  
    On PCI systems running kernels compiled with PCI BIOS support enabled, this
    driver will interrogate the PCI configuration space and use the I/O port
    addresses assigned by the system BIOS, rather than the ISA compatible I/O
    port addresses.  The ISA compatible I/O port address is then disabled by the
    driver.  On PCI systems it is also recommended that the AutoSCSI utility be
    used to disable the ISA compatible I/O port entirely as it is not necessary.
    The ISA compatible I/O port is disabled by default on the BT-948/958/958D.
  
  o /proc File System Support
  
    Copies of the host adapter configuration information together with updated
    data transfer and error recovery statistics are available through the
    /proc/scsi/BusLogic/<N> interface.
  
  o Shared Interrupts Support
  
    On systems that support shared interrupts, any number of BusLogic Host
    Adapters may share the same interrupt request channel.

  supported by this driver.
  
  BusLogic SCSI Host Adapters are available packaged both as bare boards and as
  retail kits.  The BT- model numbers above refer to the bare board packaging.
  The retail kit model numbers are found by replacing BT- with KT- in the above
  list.  The retail kit includes the bare board and manual as well as cabling and
  driver media and documentation that are not provided with bare boards.
  
  
  			 FLASHPOINT INSTALLATION NOTES
  
  o RAIDPlus Support
  
    FlashPoint Host Adapters now include RAIDPlus, Mylex's bootable software
    RAID.  RAIDPlus is not supported on Linux, and there are no plans to support
    it.  The MD driver in Linux 2.0 provides for concatenation (LINEAR) and
    striping (RAID-0), and support for mirroring (RAID-1), fixed parity (RAID-4),
    and distributed parity (RAID-5) is available separately.  The built-in Linux
    RAID support is generally more flexible and is expected to perform better
    than RAIDPlus, so there is little impetus to include RAIDPlus support in the
    BusLogic driver.
  
  o Enabling UltraSCSI Transfers
  
    FlashPoint Host Adapters ship with their configuration set to "Factory
    Default" settings that are conservative and do not allow for UltraSCSI speed
    to be negotiated.  This results in fewer problems when these host adapters
    are installed in systems with cabling or termination that is not sufficient
    for UltraSCSI operation, or where existing SCSI devices do not properly
    respond to synchronous transfer negotiation for UltraSCSI speed.  AutoSCSI
    may be used to load "Optimum Performance" settings which allow UltraSCSI
    speed to be negotiated with all devices, or UltraSCSI speed can be enabled on
    an individual basis.  It is recommended that SCAM be manually disabled after
    the "Optimum Performance" settings are loaded.
  
  
  		      BT-948/958/958D INSTALLATION NOTES
  
  The BT-948/958/958D PCI Ultra SCSI Host Adapters have some features which may
  require attention in some circumstances when installing Linux.
  
  o PCI I/O Port Assignments
  
    When configured to factory default settings, the BT-948/958/958D will only
    recognize the PCI I/O port assignments made by the motherboard's PCI BIOS.
    The BT-948/958/958D will not respond to any of the ISA compatible I/O ports
    that previous BusLogic SCSI Host Adapters respond to.  This driver supports
    the PCI I/O port assignments, so this is the preferred configuration.
    However, if the obsolete BusLogic driver must be used for any reason, such as
    a Linux distribution that does not yet use this driver in its boot kernel,
    BusLogic has provided an AutoSCSI configuration option to enable a legacy ISA
    compatible I/O port.
  
    To enable this backward compatibility option, invoke the AutoSCSI utility via
    Ctrl-B at system startup and select "Adapter Configuration", "View/Modify
    Configuration", and then change the "ISA Compatible Port" setting from
    "Disable" to "Primary" or "Alternate".  Once this driver has been installed,
    the "ISA Compatible Port" option should be set back to "Disable" to avoid
    possible future I/O port conflicts.  The older BT-946C/956C/956CD also have
    this configuration option, but the factory default setting is "Primary".
  
  o PCI Slot Scanning Order
  
    In systems with multiple BusLogic PCI Host Adapters, the order in which the
    PCI slots are scanned may appear reversed with the BT-948/958/958D as
    compared to the BT-946C/956C/956CD.  For booting from a SCSI disk to work
    correctly, it is necessary that the host adapter's BIOS and the kernel agree
    on which disk is the boot device, which requires that they recognize the PCI
    host adapters in the same order.  The motherboard's PCI BIOS provides a
    standard way of enumerating the PCI host adapters, which is used by the Linux
    kernel.  Some PCI BIOS implementations enumerate the PCI slots in order of
    increasing bus number and device number, while others do so in the opposite
    direction.
  
    Unfortunately, Microsoft decided that Windows 95 would always enumerate the
    PCI slots in order of increasing bus number and device number regardless of
    the PCI BIOS enumeration, and requires that their scheme be supported by the
    host adapter's BIOS to receive Windows 95 certification.  Therefore, the
    factory default settings of the BT-948/958/958D enumerate the host adapters
    by increasing bus number and device number.  To disable this feature, invoke
    the AutoSCSI utility via Ctrl-B at system startup and select "Adapter
    Configuration", "View/Modify Configuration", press Ctrl-F10, and then change
    the "Use Bus And Device # For PCI Scanning Seq." option to OFF.
  
    This driver will interrogate the setting of the PCI Scanning Sequence option
    so as to recognize the host adapters in the same order as they are enumerated
    by the host adapter's BIOS.
  
  o Enabling UltraSCSI Transfers
  
    The BT-948/958/958D ship with their configuration set to "Factory Default"
    settings that are conservative and do not allow for UltraSCSI speed to be
    negotiated.  This results in fewer problems when these host adapters are
    installed in systems with cabling or termination that is not sufficient for
    UltraSCSI operation, or where existing SCSI devices do not properly respond
    to synchronous transfer negotiation for UltraSCSI speed.  AutoSCSI may be
    used to load "Optimum Performance" settings which allow UltraSCSI speed to be
    negotiated with all devices, or UltraSCSI speed can be enabled on an
    individual basis.  It is recommended that SCAM be manually disabled after the
    "Optimum Performance" settings are loaded.
  
  
  				DRIVER OPTIONS
  
  BusLogic Driver Options may be specified either via the Linux Kernel Command
  Line or via the Loadable Kernel Module Installation Facility.  Driver Options
  for multiple host adapters may be specified either by separating the option
  strings by a semicolon, or by specifying multiple "BusLogic=" strings on the
  command line.  Individual option specifications for a single host adapter are
  separated by commas.  The Probing and Debugging Options apply to all host
  adapters whereas the remaining options apply individually only to the
  selected host adapter.
  
  The BusLogic Driver Probing Options comprise the following:
  
  IO:<integer>
  
    The "IO:" option specifies an ISA I/O Address to be probed for a non-PCI
    MultiMaster Host Adapter.  If neither "IO:" nor "NoProbeISA" options are
    specified, then the standard list of BusLogic MultiMaster ISA I/O Addresses
    will be probed (0x330, 0x334, 0x230, 0x234, 0x130, and 0x134).  Multiple
    "IO:" options may be specified to precisely determine the I/O Addresses to
    be probed, but the probe order will always follow the standard list.
  
  NoProbe
  
    The "NoProbe" option disables all probing and therefore no BusLogic Host
    Adapters will be detected.
  
  NoProbeISA
  
    The "NoProbeISA" option disables probing of the standard BusLogic ISA I/O
    Addresses and therefore only PCI MultiMaster and FlashPoint Host Adapters
    will be detected.
  
  NoProbePCI
  
    The "NoProbePCI" options disables the interrogation of PCI Configuration
    Space and therefore only ISA Multimaster Host Adapters will be detected, as
    well as PCI Multimaster Host Adapters that have their ISA Compatible I/O
    Port set to "Primary" or "Alternate".
  
  NoSortPCI
  
    The "NoSortPCI" option forces PCI MultiMaster Host Adapters to be
    enumerated in the order provided by the PCI BIOS, ignoring any setting of
    the AutoSCSI "Use Bus And Device # For PCI Scanning Seq." option.
  
  MultiMasterFirst
  
    The "MultiMasterFirst" option forces MultiMaster Host Adapters to be probed
    before FlashPoint Host Adapters.  By default, if both FlashPoint and PCI
    MultiMaster Host Adapters are present, this driver will probe for
    FlashPoint Host Adapters first unless the BIOS primary disk is controlled
    by the first PCI MultiMaster Host Adapter, in which case MultiMaster Host
    Adapters will be probed first.
  
  FlashPointFirst
  
    The "FlashPointFirst" option forces FlashPoint Host Adapters to be probed
    before MultiMaster Host Adapters.
  
  The BusLogic Driver Tagged Queuing Options allow for explicitly specifying
  the Queue Depth and whether Tagged Queuing is permitted for each Target
  Device (assuming that the Target Device supports Tagged Queuing).  The Queue
  Depth is the number of SCSI Commands that are allowed to be concurrently
  presented for execution (either to the Host Adapter or Target Device).  Note
  that explicitly enabling Tagged Queuing may lead to problems; the option to
  enable or disable Tagged Queuing is provided primarily to allow disabling
  Tagged Queuing on Target Devices that do not implement it correctly.  The
  following options are available:
  
  QueueDepth:<integer>
  
    The "QueueDepth:" or QD:" option specifies the Queue Depth to use for all
    Target Devices that support Tagged Queuing, as well as the maximum Queue
    Depth for devices that do not support Tagged Queuing.  If no Queue Depth
    option is provided, the Queue Depth will be determined automatically based
    on the Host Adapter's Total Queue Depth and the number, type, speed, and
    capabilities of the detected Target Devices.  For Host Adapters that
    require ISA Bounce Buffers, the Queue Depth is automatically set by default
    to BusLogic_TaggedQueueDepthBB or BusLogic_UntaggedQueueDepthBB to avoid
    excessive preallocation of DMA Bounce Buffer memory.  Target Devices that
    do not support Tagged Queuing always have their Queue Depth set to
    BusLogic_UntaggedQueueDepth or BusLogic_UntaggedQueueDepthBB, unless a
    lower Queue Depth option is provided.  A Queue Depth of 1 automatically
    disables Tagged Queuing.
  
  QueueDepth:[<integer>,<integer>...]
  
    The "QueueDepth:[...]" or "QD:[...]" option specifies the Queue Depth
    individually for each Target Device.  If an <integer> is omitted, the
    associated Target Device will have its Queue Depth selected automatically.
  
  TaggedQueuing:Default
  
    The "TaggedQueuing:Default" or "TQ:Default" option permits Tagged Queuing
    based on the firmware version of the BusLogic Host Adapter and based on
    whether the Queue Depth allows queuing multiple commands.
  
  TaggedQueuing:Enable
  
    The "TaggedQueuing:Enable" or "TQ:Enable" option enables Tagged Queuing for
    all Target Devices on this Host Adapter, overriding any limitation that
    would otherwise be imposed based on the Host Adapter firmware version.
  
  TaggedQueuing:Disable
  
    The "TaggedQueuing:Disable" or "TQ:Disable" option disables Tagged Queuing
    for all Target Devices on this Host Adapter.
  
  TaggedQueuing:<Target-Spec>
  
    The "TaggedQueuing:<Target-Spec>" or "TQ:<Target-Spec>" option controls
    Tagged Queuing individually for each Target Device.  <Target-Spec> is a
    sequence of "Y", "N", and "X" characters.  "Y" enables Tagged Queuing, "N"
    disables Tagged Queuing, and "X" accepts the default based on the firmware
    version.  The first character refers to Target Device 0, the second to
    Target Device 1, and so on; if the sequence of "Y", "N", and "X" characters
    does not cover all the Target Devices, unspecified characters are assumed
    to be "X".
  
  The BusLogic Driver Miscellaneous Options comprise the following:
  
  BusSettleTime:<seconds>
  
    The "BusSettleTime:" or "BST:" option specifies the Bus Settle Time in
    seconds.  The Bus Settle Time is the amount of time to wait between a Host
    Adapter Hard Reset which initiates a SCSI Bus Reset and issuing any SCSI
    Commands.  If unspecified, it defaults to BusLogic_DefaultBusSettleTime.
  
  InhibitTargetInquiry
  
    The "InhibitTargetInquiry" option inhibits the execution of an Inquire
    Target Devices or Inquire Installed Devices command on MultiMaster Host
    Adapters.  This may be necessary with some older Target Devices that do not
    respond correctly when Logical Units above 0 are addressed.
  
  The BusLogic Driver Debugging Options comprise the following:
  
  TraceProbe
  
    The "TraceProbe" option enables tracing of Host Adapter Probing.
  
  TraceHardwareReset
  
    The "TraceHardwareReset" option enables tracing of Host Adapter Hardware
    Reset.
  
  TraceConfiguration
  
    The "TraceConfiguration" option enables tracing of Host Adapter
    Configuration.
  
  TraceErrors
  
    The "TraceErrors" option enables tracing of SCSI Commands that return an
    error from the Target Device.  The CDB and Sense Data will be printed for
    each SCSI Command that fails.
  
  Debug
  
    The "Debug" option enables all debugging options.
  
  The following examples demonstrate setting the Queue Depth for Target Devices
  1 and 2 on the first host adapter to 7 and 15, the Queue Depth for all Target
  Devices on the second host adapter to 31, and the Bus Settle Time on the
  second host adapter to 30 seconds.
  
  Linux Kernel Command Line:
  
    linux BusLogic=QueueDepth:[,7,15];QueueDepth:31,BusSettleTime:30
  
  LILO Linux Boot Loader (in /etc/lilo.conf):
  
    append = "BusLogic=QueueDepth:[,7,15];QueueDepth:31,BusSettleTime:30"
  
  INSMOD Loadable Kernel Module Installation Facility:
  
    insmod BusLogic.o \
        'BusLogic="QueueDepth:[,7,15];QueueDepth:31,BusSettleTime:30"'
  
  NOTE: Module Utilities 2.1.71 or later is required for correct parsing
        of driver options containing commas.
  
  
  			      DRIVER INSTALLATION
  
  This distribution was prepared for Linux kernel version 2.0.35, but should be
  compatible with 2.0.4 or any later 2.0 series kernel.
  
  To install the new BusLogic SCSI driver, you may use the following commands,
  replacing "/usr/src" with wherever you keep your Linux kernel source tree:
  
    cd /usr/src
    tar -xvzf BusLogic-2.0.15.tar.gz
    mv README.* LICENSE.* BusLogic.[ch] FlashPoint.c linux/drivers/scsi
    patch -p0 < BusLogic.patch (only for 2.0.33 and below)
    cd linux
    make config
    make zImage

  Then install "arch/x86/boot/zImage" as your standard kernel, run lilo if

  appropriate, and reboot.
