Significant changes:
- Remove obsolete informations from the README.sym file.
- Check also against DT_DATA_IN phase on parity/crc error.
(Merged from Pamela Delaney's changes in the Linux driver)
- Fix support for phase mismatch handling from the C code for
the C1010 (only useful for testing issue).
- Add an asynchonous notification handler for `lost device'
(AC_LOST).
Previous MFC came from revision 1.13.
Fixes the user settings report problem with Tekram
layout NVRAM for devices configured for Fast-40 and
uses `bus space' instead of legacy IO/MMIO methods.
Other changes that make the patch larger than it
could have been are not dangerous for -stable and it
would have been less safe, in my opinion, to try
to revert them prior to this MFC.
batch of commits.
MFC: Support for NCR legacy devices 810, 815 and 825.
MFC: Use of BUS DMA mapping kernel interface.
MFC: Better C1010 support.
MFC: Better handling of wrong data direction and wrong
phases.
- Remove all the code intended to deal with experimental
C1010 revisions. This code got useless due to commercial
chip revisions having been fixed.
Fixes:
- Rewrite/rework the WSR condition handling.
Previous drivers snooped on the BUS through the SBDL IO
register and this has been discovered to trigger a spurious
SCSI parity error when WSR had been set by chip and cleared
by SCRIPTS prior to reading SBDL bit [0...7].
On the other hand, the C1010 does not use the SWIDE register
when synchronous data transfers are taking place and
requires a CHMOV (1) WHEN DATA_IN to be performed in order
to move to memory the residual byte when WSR is set and
the residual byte is useful data.
BTW, the new WSR handling by the driver is simpler.
- No longer attempt to read from SCRIPTS the SBDL register.
This is intended to avoid to be victimized again by any other
issue regarding the handling of this register by 8xx chips.
Miscellaneous:
- The driver is now able to handle the WSR + IGN RESIDUE
condition at the end of a DATA IN I/O without need of a
programmed interrupt. It is a minor? optimization.
- A few other minor cosmetic changes.
This driver version fixes notably a permanent SCSI parity
error condition at boot that can be triggerred due to recent
changes in cam_xpt.c between 1.79 and 1.80.
Changes in CAM/XPT are fine, but the new handling of the full
INQUIRY may trigger the driver problem when a target returned
an odd value in the `additionnal length' field of the INQUIRY
response.
The diff against previous driver version is large, but it
consists approximatively in:
- 350 lignes removed and not compiled in previous drivers
(They addressed experimental C1010 revisions)
- 250 lignes added or changed, half being comments or empty
lines.
So, in fact, the real changes are about 120 lines of source.
About 80 lines address SCRIPTS changes and about 40 lines
address C code changes.

condition.
- 1 line change that allows to balance chips between ncr
and sym using pci compat option (not compiled by default
in 4.0 but maintains the driver source 3.4 compatible).
- Set MAX_OFFS driver compile option to 63 (was 64 which is wrong).
- Fix a typo in the SYMBIOS NVRAM layout structure and add field and
bit definition for the support of PIM_NOBUSRESET.
- Report to XPT PIM_NOBUSRESET and PIM_SCANHILO if set by user in NVRAM.
- Negotiate SYNC immediately after WIDE response from the target as
suggested by Justin Gibbs.
- Remove some misleading comment about CmdQue handling by CAM.
- Apply correctly the MAX_WIDE and MAX_OFFS driver options.
(pci dev_id 0x21).
- Start the SCRIPTS processor without resetting the SCSI BUS
at initialization.
- Remove the "Host adapter CCB chain" (got useless given the
new queuing scheme).
- Display correctly the state of SCSI signals, when SCSI BUS
looks bad.
- Cosmetic changes in messages printed out at initialization.
- Notifications and messages on RESET conditions slightly
reworked.
- TEKRAM 24C16 NVRAM support fixed (also reported ok).
broken bit work-around enabled.
* Fixed a bug that made MDP not work. (However, MDP is actually not tested
due to lack of hardware using this feature).
* Chip table changed to support the C1010 B0 w/o the U3EN bit work-around
enabled.
* Add the SYM_SETUP_MAX_LUN, SYM_SETUP_LP_PROBE_MAP (used to tell the
driver about chips that are to be claimed with lower priority than old
PCI bus based driver (typically the ncr)), SYM_SETUP_SCSI_DIFF, and
SYM_SETUP_PCI_PARITY options.

PCI SCSI controllers. This driver also supports the following Symbios/LSI
PCI SCSI chips: 53C810A, 53C825A, 53C860, 53C875, 53C876, 53C885, 53C895.
However, it does NOT support earlier chips as the following ones: 53C810,
53C815, 53C825.
See README.sym for more details.
