Following the host reset, the firmware discovery is reassigning another hard
drive in the topology to the same device handle as that device is getting hot
removed. Until the driver device removal routine is called, there will be two
hard drive with the matching device handle in the internal device link
list. In the device removal routine, a separate function which moves the
device from BLOCKED into OFFLINE state. Since this routine is passed with the
device handle passed as input parameter, the routine will be traversing the
internal device link list searching for matching device handle. This results
in two devices with matching device handle, therefore both devices goes
OFFLINE.
To fix this issue,the input parameter is changed from device handle to SAS
address, therefore only the device that is hot unplugged will be placed in
OFFLINE state.

There were possible race conditions surrounding reading an object
from the link list while from another context in the driver was
removing it. The nature of this enhancement is to rearrange locking
so the link lists are better protected.
Change set:
(1) numerous routines were rearranged so spin locks are held through
the entire time a link list object is being read from or written to.
(2) added new routines for object deletion from link list. Thus ensuring
lock was held during the deletion of the link list object, then and memory
for object freed outside the lock. The memory was freed outside the lock
so driver had access to device object info which was required for
notifying the scsi mid layer that a device was getting deleted.
(3) added the ioc->blocking_handles parameter. This is a bitmask used
to identify which devices need blocking when there is device loss. This was
introduced so that lock can be held for the entire time traversing the link
list objects, and the bitmask was set to indicate which device handles need
blocking. Oustide the lock the ioc->blocking_handles bitmask is traversed,
with the respective device handle the scsi mid layer is called for moving
devices into blocking state.

The amount of memory required for tracking chain buffers is rather
large, and when the host credit count is big, memory allocation
failure occurs inside __get_free_pages.
The fix is to limit the number of chains to 100,000. In addition,
the number of host credits is limited to 30,000 IOs. However this
limitation can be overridden this using the command line option
max_queue_depth. The algorithm for calculating the
reply_post_queue_depth is changed so that it is equal to
(reply_free_queue_depth + 16), previously it was (reply_free_queue_depth * 2).

To fix the issue, added error checking in slave_configure to check
for configuration pages failing, and return "1" so the device is
not configured. The config pages are failing if raid volume is
configured while issuing a host reset, thus driver is reading stale
data and proceeding to attempt to add. The fix is to return error

New feature Fast Load Support.
(1)Asynchronous SCSI scanning: This will allow the drivers to scan
for devices in parallel while other device drivers are loading at
the same time. This will improve the amount of time it takes for the
OS to load.
(2) Reporting Devices while port enable is active: This feature will
allow devices to be reported to OS immediately while port enable is
active. The previous implementation waits for port enable to complete,
and then report devices. This feature is only enabled on IT firmware
configurations when there are no boot device configured in BIOS Configuration
Utility, else the driver will wait till port enable completes reporting
devices. For IR firmware, this feature is turned off. This feature is to
address large SAS topologies (>100 drives) when the boot OS is using onboard
SATA device, in other words, the boot devices is not
connected to our controller.
(3) Scanning for devices after diagnostic reset completes: A new routine
_scsih_scan_start is added. This will scan the expander pages, IR pages,
and sas device pages, then reporting new devices to SCSI Mid layer. It
seems the driver is not supporting adding devices while diagnostic reset
is active. Apparently this is due to the sanity checks on
ioc->shost_recovery flag throughout the context of kernel work thread FIFO,
and the mpt2sas_fw_work.

Support added for controllers capable of multi reply queues.
The following are the modifications to the driver to support NUMA.
1) Create the new structure adapter_reply_queue to contain the reply queue
info for every msix vector. This object will contain a
reply_post_host_index, reply_post_free for each instance, msix_index, among
other parameters. We will track all the reply queues on a link list called
ioc->reply_queue_list. Each reply queue is aligned with each IRQ, and is
passed to the interrupt via the bus_id parameter.
(2) The driver will figure out the msix_vector_count from the PCIe MSIX
capabilities register instead of the IOC Facts->MaxMSIxVectors. This is
because the firmware is not filling in this field until the driver has
already registered MSIX support.
(3) If the ioc_facts reports that the controller is MSIX compatible in the
capabilities, then the driver will request for multiple irqs. This count
is calculated based on the minimum between the online cpus available and
the ioc->msix_vector_count. This count is reported to firmware in the
ioc_init request.
(4) New routines were added _base_free_irq and _base_request_irq, so
registering and freeing msix vectors were done thru simple function API.
(5) The new routine _base_assign_reply_queues was added to align the msix
indexes across cpus. This will initialize the array called
ioc->cpu_msix_table. This array is looked up on every MPI request so the
MSIxIndex is set appropriately.
(6) A new shost sysfs attribute was added to report the reply_queue_count.
(7) User needs to set the affinity cpu mask, so the interrupts occur on the
same cpu that sent the original request.

This patch has Support for the new solid state device product SSS6200
from LSI and relavent features w.r.t SSS6200.
The major feature added in this driver is supporting Direct-I/O to the
SSS6200 storage.There are some additional changes done to avoid exposing
the RAID member disks to the OS and hiding/exposing drives based on the
OEM Specific Flag in Manufacturing Page10 (this is required to handle
specific changes in the SSS6200 firmware).
Each and every changes are listed below.
1. Hiding IR related messages.
For SSS6200, the driver is modified not to print IR related events.
Even if the debugging is enabled the IR related messages will not be displayed.
In some places if there is a need to display a message related to IR the
string "IR" is replaced with string "DD" and the string "volume" is replaced
with "direct drive". But the function names are not changed hence there are
some places where the reference to volume can be seen if debug level is set.
2. Removed RAID transport support
In Linux the user can retrieve RAID volume information from the sysfs directory.
This support is removed for SSS6200.
3. Direct I/O support.
The driver tries to enable direct I/O when a volume is reported to the driver
by the firmware through IRCC events and the driver does this just before
reporting to the OS, hence all the OS issued I/O can go through direct path
if they can, The first validation is to see whether the manufacturing page10
flag is set to expose all drives always. If that is set, the driver will not
enable direct I/O and displays the message "DDIO" is disabled globally as
drives are exposed. The driver checks whether there is more than one volume
in the controller, if so the direct I/O will be disabled globally for all
volumes in the controller and the message displayed will be "DDIO is disabled
globally as number of drives > 1.
If retrieving number of PD is failed the driver will not enable direct I/O
and displays the message Failure in computing number of drives DDIO disabled.
If memory allocation for RAIDVolumePage0 is failed, the driver will not enable
direct I/O and displays the message Memory allocation failure for
RVPG0 DDIO disabled. If retrieving RAIDVolumePage0 is failed the driver will
not enable direct I/O and displays the message Failure in retrieving
RVPG0 DDIO disabled
If the number of PD in a volume is greater than 8, then the direct I/O will
be disabled.
If any of individual drives handle retrieval is failed then the DD-IO will
be disabled.
If the volume is not RAID0 or if the block size is not 512 then the DD-IO will
be disabled.
If the volume size is greater than 2TB then the DD-IO will be disabled.
If the driver is not able to find a valid stripe exponent using the configured
stripe size then the DD-IO will be disabled
When the DD-IO is enabled the driver will check every I/O request issued to
the storage and checks whether the request is either
READ6/WRITE6/READ10/WRITE10, if it is and if the complete I/O transfer
is within a stripe size then the I/O is redirected to
the drive directly instead of the volume.
On completion of every I/O, if the completion is failure means if the reply
is address reply with a reply frame associated with it, then the type of I/O
will be checked, if the I/O is direct then the I/O will be retried to
the volume once.
