When controller lockup condition is detected,
we should fail all outstanding commands and disable
the controller. This will enable multipath solutions
to recover gracefully.Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

The currentsd[] array in hpsa_update_scsi_devices had room for
256 devices. The code was iterating over however many physical
and logical devices plus an additional number of possible external
MSA2XXX controllers, which together could potentially exceed 256.We increased the size of the currentsd array to 1024 + 1024 + 32 + 1
elements to reflect a reasonable maximum possible number of devices
which might be encountered. We also don't just walk off the end
of the array if the array controller reports more devices than we
are prepared to handle, we just ignore the excessive devices.Signed-off-by: Scott Teel

Most smartarrays tolerate it, but a few new ones don't.
Without this change some newer Smart Arrays will lock up
and i/o will grind to a halt.Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

on driver load, if reset_devices is set, and the hard reset
attempts fail, try to bring up the controller to the point that
a command can be sent, and send it a soft reset command, then
after the reset undo whatever driver initialization was done to get
it to the point to take a command, and re-do it after the reset.This is to get kdump to work on all the "non-resettable" controllers
(except 64xx controllers which can't be reset due to the potentially
shared cache module.)Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

It's not enough to simple avoid putting the board into performant
mode, as we have to set up the interrupts differently, etc. When
I originally tested this module parameter, I tested it incorrectly
without realizing it, and the driver was running in performant mode
the whole time unbeknownst to me.Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

After a reset, we should first wait for the board to become "not ready",
and then wait for it to become "ready", instead of immediately
waiting for it to become "ready", and do this waiting *after*
restoring PCI config space registers. Also, only wait 10 secs
for board to become "not ready" after a reset (it should quickly
become not ready.)Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

The firmware may have been updated, in which case, it's the same device,
and in that case, we do not want to remove and add the device, we want to
let it continue as is.Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

This uses the scatter-gather chaining feature of Smart Array
controllers. 32 scatter-gather elements are embedded in the
"command list", and the last element in the list may be marked
as a "chain pointer", and point to an additional block of
scatter gather elements. The precise number of scatter gather
elements supported is dependent on the particular kind of
Smart Array, and is determined at runtime by querying the
hardware.Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

The intent of the scan thread was to allow a UNIT ATTENTION/LUN
DATA CHANGED condition encountered in the interrupt handler
to trigger a rescan of devices, which can't be done in interrupt
context. However, we weren't able to get this to work, due to
multiple such UNIT ATTENTION conditions arriving during the rescan,
during updating of the SCSI mid layer, etc. There's no way to tell
the devices, "stand still while I scan you!" Since it doesn't work,
there's no point in having the thread, as the rescan triggered via
ioctl or sysfs can be done without such a thread.Signed-off-by: Mike Miller

The p1210m responsds to SCSI report LUNs, unlike traditional Smart
Array controllers. This means that the bus, target, and lun
assignments done by the driver cannot be arbitrary, but must match
what SCSI REPORT LUNS returns.Signed-off-by: Stephen M. Cameron

This is done by adding support for the so-called "performant mode"
(that's really what they called it). Smart Array controllers
have a mode which enables multiple command completions to be
delivered with a single interrupt, "performant" mode. We want to use
that mode, as some newer controllers will be requiring this mode.Signed-off-by: Don Brace
