Version History - 7.0 (4th August, 2005) - - Updated driver to use SCSI transport class infrastructure - - Upported sequencer and core fixes from last adaptec released - version of the driver. - 6.2.36 (June 3rd, 2003) - - Correct code that disables PCI parity error checking. - - Correct and simplify handling of the ignore wide residue - message. The previous code would fail to report a residual - if the transaction data length was even and we received - an IWR message. - - Add support for the 2.5.X EISA framework. - - Update for change in 2.5.X SCSI proc FS interface. - - Correct Domain Validation command-line option parsing. - - When negotiation async via an 8bit WDTR message, send - an SDTR with an offset of 0 to be sure the target - knows we are async. This works around a firmware defect - in the Quantum Atlas 10K. - - Clear PCI error state during driver attach so that we - don't disable memory mapped I/O due to a stray write - by some other driver probe that occurred before we - claimed the controller. - - 6.2.35 (May 14th, 2003) - - Fix a few GCC 3.3 compiler warnings. - - Correct operation on EISA Twin Channel controller. - - Add support for 2.5.X's scsi_report_device_reset(). - - 6.2.34 (May 5th, 2003) - - Fix locking regression introduced in 6.2.29 that - could cause a lock order reversal between the io_request_lock - and our per-softc lock. This was only possible on RH9, - SuSE, and kernel.org 2.4.X kernels. - - 6.2.33 (April 30th, 2003) - - Dynamically disable PCI parity error reporting after - 10 errors are reported to the user. These errors are - the result of some other device issuing PCI transactions - with bad parity. Once the user has been informed of the - problem, continuing to report the errors just degrades - our performance. - - 6.2.32 (March 28th, 2003) - - Dynamically sized S/G lists to avoid SCSI malloc - pool fragmentation and SCSI mid-layer deadlock. - - 6.2.28 (January 20th, 2003) - - Domain Validation Fixes - - Add ability to disable PCI parity error checking. - - Enhanced Memory Mapped I/O probe - - 6.2.20 (November 7th, 2002) - - Added Domain Validation. - -3. Command Line Options - - WARNING: ALTERING OR ADDING THESE DRIVER PARAMETERS - INCORRECTLY CAN RENDER YOUR SYSTEM INOPERABLE. - USE THEM WITH CAUTION. - - Put a .conf file in the /etc/modprobe.d directory and add/edit a - line containing 'options aic7xxx aic7xxx=[command[,command...]]' where - 'command' is one or more of the following: - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: verbose - Definition: enable additional informative messages during - driver operation. - Possible Values: This option is a flag - Default Value: disabled - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: debug:[value] - Definition: Enables various levels of debugging information - Possible Values: 0x0000 = no debugging, 0xffff = full debugging - Default Value: 0x0000 - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: no_probe - Option: probe_eisa_vl - Definition: Do not probe for EISA/VLB controllers. - This is a toggle. If the driver is compiled - to not probe EISA/VLB controllers by default, - specifying "no_probe" will enable this probing. - If the driver is compiled to probe EISA/VLB - controllers by default, specifying "no_probe" - will disable this probing. - Possible Values: This option is a toggle - Default Value: EISA/VLB probing is disabled by default. - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: pci_parity - Definition: Toggles the detection of PCI parity errors. - On many motherboards with VIA chipsets, - PCI parity is not generated correctly on the - PCI bus. It is impossible for the hardware to - differentiate between these "spurious" parity - errors and real parity errors. The symptom of - this problem is a stream of the message: - "scsi0: Data Parity Error Detected during address or write data phase" - output by the driver. - Possible Values: This option is a toggle - Default Value: PCI Parity Error reporting is disabled - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: no_reset - Definition: Do not reset the bus during the initial probe - phase - Possible Values: This option is a flag - Default Value: disabled - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: extended - Definition: Force extended translation on the controller - Possible Values: This option is a flag - Default Value: disabled - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: periodic_otag - Definition: Send an ordered tag periodically to prevent - tag starvation. Needed for some older devices - Possible Values: This option is a flag - Default Value: disabled - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: reverse_scan - Definition: Probe the scsi bus in reverse order, starting - with target 15 - Possible Values: This option is a flag - Default Value: disabled - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: global_tag_depth:[value] - Definition: Global tag depth for all targets on all busses. - This option sets the default tag depth which - may be selectively overridden vi the tag_info - option. - Possible Values: 1 - 253 - Default Value: 32 - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: tag_info:{{value[,value...]}[,{value[,value...]}...]} - Definition: Set the per-target tagged queue depth on a - per controller basis. Both controllers and targets - may be omitted indicating that they should retain - the default tag depth. - Examples: tag_info:{{16,32,32,64,8,8,,32,32,32,32,32,32,32,32,32} - On Controller 0 - specifies a tag depth of 16 for target 0 - specifies a tag depth of 64 for target 3 - specifies a tag depth of 8 for targets 4 and 5 - leaves target 6 at the default - specifies a tag depth of 32 for targets 1,2,7-15 - All other targets retain the default depth. - - tag_info:{{},{32,,32}} - On Controller 1 - specifies a tag depth of 32 for targets 0 and 2 - All other targets retain the default depth. - - Possible Values: 1 - 253 - Default Value: 32 - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: seltime:[value] - Definition: Specifies the selection timeout value - Possible Values: 0 = 256ms, 1 = 128ms, 2 = 64ms, 3 = 32ms - Default Value: 0 - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Option: dv: {value[,value...]} - Definition: Set Domain Validation Policy on a per-controller basis. - Controllers may be omitted indicating that - they should retain the default read streaming setting. - Example: dv:{-1,0,,1,1,0} - On Controller 0 leave DV at its default setting. - On Controller 1 disable DV. - Skip configuration on Controller 2. - On Controllers 3 and 4 enable DV. - On Controller 5 disable DV. - - Possible Values: < 0 Use setting from serial EEPROM. - 0 Disable DV - > 0 Enable DV - - Default Value: SCSI-Select setting on controllers with a SCSI Select - option for DV. Otherwise, on for controllers supporting - U160 speeds and off for all other controller types. - ----------------------------------------------------------------- - - Example: - 'options aic7xxx aic7xxx=verbose,no_probe,tag_info:{{},{,,10}},seltime:1' - enables verbose logging, Disable EISA/VLB probing, - and set tag depth on Controller 1/Target 2 to 10 tags. - -4.
