  1. Sat Dec 30 21:30 2000 Gerard Roudier
  2. * version sym-2.1.0-20001230
  3. - Initial release of SYM-2.
  4. Mon Jan 08 21:30 2001 Gerard Roudier
  5. * version sym-2.1.1-20010108
  6. - Change a couple of defines containing ncr or NCR by their
  7. equivalent containing sym or SYM instead.
  8. Sun Jan 14 22:30 2001 Gerard Roudier
  9. * version sym-2.1.2-20010114
  10. - Fix a couple of printfs:
  11. * Add the target number to the display of transfer parameters.
  12. * Make the display of TCQ and queue depth clearer.
  13. Wed Jan 17 23:30 2001 Gerard Roudier
  14. * version sym-2.1.3-20010117
  15. - Wrong residual values were returned in some situations.
  16. This broke cdrecord with linux-2.4.0, for example.
  17. Sat Jan 20 18:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  18. * version sym-2.1.4-20010120
  19. - Add year 2001 to Copyright.
  20. - A tiny bug in the dma memory freeing path has been fixed.
  21. (Driver unload failed with a bad address reference).
  22. Wed Jan 24 21:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  23. * version sym-2.1.5-20010124
  24. - Make the driver work under Linux-2.4.x when statically linked
  25. with the kernel.
  26. - Check against memory allocation failure for SCRIPTZ and add the
  27. missing free of this memory on instance detach.
  28. - Check against GPIO3 pulled low for HVD controllers (driver did
  29. just the opposite).
  30. Misdetection of BUS mode was triggered on module reload only,
  31. since BIOS settings were trusted instead on first load.
  32. Wed Feb 7 21:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  33. * version sym-2.1.6-20010207
  34. - Call pci_enable_device() as wished by kernel maintainers.
  35. - Change the sym_queue_scsiio() interface.
  36. This is intended to simplify portability.
  37. - Move the code intended to deal with the dowloading of SCRIPTS
  38. from SCRIPTS :) in the patch method (was wrongly placed in
  39. the SCRIPTS setup method).
  40. - Add a missing cpu_to_scr() (np->abort_tbl.addr)
  41. - Remove a wrong cpu_to_scr() (np->targtbl_ba)
  42. - Cleanup a bit the PPR failure recovery code.
  43. Sat Mar 3 21:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  44. - Add option SYM_OPT_ANNOUNCE_TRANSFER_RATE and move the
  45. corresponding code to file sym_misc.c.
  46. Also move the code that sniffes INQUIRY to sym_misc.c.
  47. This allows to share the corresponding code with NetBSD
  48. without polluating the core driver source (sym_hipd.c).
  49. - Add optionnal code that handles IO timeouts from the driver.
  50. (not used under Linux, but required for NetBSD)
  51. - Donnot assume any longer that PAGE_SHIFT and PAGE_SIZE are
  52. defined at compile time, as at least NetBSD uses variables
  53. in memory for that.
  54. - Refine a work-around for the C1010-33 that consists in
  55. disabling internal LOAD/STORE. Was applied up to revision 1.
  56. Is now only applied to revision 0.
  57. - Some code reorganisations due to code moves between files.
  58. Tues Apr 10 21:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  59. * version sym-2.1.9-20010412
  60. - Reset 53C896 and 53C1010 chip according to the manual.
  61. (i.e.: set the ABRT bit in ISTAT if SCRIPTS are running)
  62. - Set #LUN in request sense only if scsi version <= 2 and
  63. #LUN <= 7.
  64. - Set busy_itl in LCB to 1 if the LCB is allocated and a
  65. SCSI command is active. This is a simplification.
  66. - In sym_hcb_free(), do not scan the free_ccbq if no CCBs
  67. has been allocated. This fixes a panic if attach failed.
  68. - Add DT/ST (double/simple transition) in the transfer
  69. negotiation announce.
  70. - Forces the max number of tasks per LUN to at least 64.
  71. - Use pci_set_dma_mask() for linux-2.4.3 and above.
  72. - A couple of comments fixes.
  73. Wed May 22:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  74. * version sym-2.1.10-20010509
  75. - Mask GPCNTL against 0x1c (was 0xfc) for the reading of the NVRAM.
  76. This ensure LEDC bit will not be set on 896 and later chips.
  77. Fix sent by Chip Salzenberg <chip@perlsupport.com>.
  78. - Define the number of PQS BUSes supported.
  79. Fix sent by Stig Telfer <stig@api-networks.com>
  80. - Miscellaneous common code rearrangements due to NetBSD accel
  81. ioctl support, without impact on Linux (hopefully).
  82. Mon July 2 12:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  83. * version sym-2.1.11-20010702
  84. - Add Tekram 390 U2B/U2W SCSI LED handling.
  85. Submitted by Chip Salzenberg <chip@valinux.com>
  86. - Add call to scsi_set_pci_device() for kernels >= 2.4.4.
  87. - Check pci dma mapping failures and complete the IO with some
  88. error when such mapping fails.
  89. - Fill in instance->max_cmd_len for kernels > 2.4.0.
  90. - A couple of tiny fixes ...
  91. Sun Sep 9 18:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  92. * version sym-2.1.12-20010909
  93. - Change my email address.
  94. - Add infrastructure for the forthcoming 64 bit DMA addressing support.
  95. (Based on PCI 64 bit patch from David S. Miller)
  96. - Donnot use anymore vm_offset_t type.
  97. Sat Sep 15 20:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  98. * version sym-2.1.13-20010916
  99. - Add support for 64 bit DMA addressing using segment registers.
  100. 16 registers for up to 4 GB x 16 -> 64 GB.
  101. Sat Sep 22 12:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  102. * version sym-2.1.14-20010922
  103. - Complete rewrite of the eh handling. The driver is now using a
  104. semaphore in order to behave synchronously as required by the eh
  105. threads. A timer is also used to prevent from waiting indefinitely.
  106. Sun Sep 30 17:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  107. * version sym-2.1.15-20010930
  108. - Include <linux/module.h> unconditionnaly as expected by latest
  109. kernels.
  110. - Use del_timer_sync() for recent kernels to kill the driver timer
  111. on module release.
  112. Sun Oct 28 15:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  113. * version sym-2.1.16-20011028
  114. - Slightly simplify driver configuration.
  115. - Prepare a new patch against linux-2.4.13.
  116. Sat Nov 17 10:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  117. * version sym-2.1.17
  118. - Fix a couple of gcc/gcc3 warnings.
  119. - Allocate separately from the HCB the array for CCBs hashed by DSA.
  120. All driver memory allocations are now not greater than 1 PAGE
  121. even on PPC64 / 4KB PAGE surprising setup.
  122. Sat Dec 01 18:00 2001 Gerard Roudier
  123. * version sym-2.1.17a
  124. - Use u_long instead of U32 for the IO base cookie. This is more
  125. consistent with what archs are expecting.
  126. - Use MMIO per default for Power PC instead of some fake normal IO,
  127. as Paul Mackerras stated that MMIO works fine now on this arch.
