  • This patch is a reworked version of the data buffer accessors patch
    so that it applies on the NPIV sources.

    The original patch was developed and submitted by Fujita Tomonori:

    - remove the unnecessary map_single path.

    - convert to use the new accessors for the sg lists and the
    parameters.

  • Following the NPIV support, the following changes have been accumulated
    in the testing and qualification of the driver:

    - Fix affinity of ELS ring to slow/deferred event processing
    - Fix Ring attention masks
    - Defer dev_loss_tmo timeout handling to worker thread
    - Consolidate link down error classification for better error checking
    - Remove unused/deprecated nlp_initiator_tmr timer
    - Fix for async scan - move adapter init code back into pci_probe_one
    context. Fix async scan interfaces.
    - Expand validation of ability to create vports
    - Extract VPI resource cnt from firmware
    - Tuning of Login/Reject policies to better deal with overwhelmned targets
    - Misc ELS and discovery fixes
    - Export the npiv_enable attribute to sysfs
    - Mailbox handling fix
    - Add debugfs support
    - A few other small misc fixes:
    - wrong return values, double-frees, bad locking
    - Added adapter failure heartbeat

  • NPIV support is added to the driver. It utilizes the interfaces of
    the fc transport for the creation and deletion of vports. Within the
    driver, a new Scsi_Host is created for each NPIV instance, and is
    paired with a new instance of a FC port. This allows N FC Port
    elements to share a single Adapter.

  • NPIV support is only available via new adapter interface extensions,
    termed SLI-3. This interface changes some of the basic behaviors such
    as command and response ring element sizes and data structures, as
    well as a change in buffer posting. Note: the new firmware extensions
    are found only on our mid-range and enterprise 4Gig adapters - so NPIV
    support is available only on these newer adapters. The latest firmware
    can be downloaded from the Emulex support page.

  • The driver is reorganized to separate the handling of the adapter from
    the handling of the FC port. Adapter handling includes submissions of
    command requests, receiving responses, and managing adapter resources.
    The FC port includes the discovery engine, login handling, and the
    mapping of a Scsi_Host on the "port". Although not a large functional
    change, as it touches core structures and functions, resulting in a
    large text delta.
