      [SCSI] lpfc: bug fixes · 858c9f6c
      James Smart authored
       Following the NPIV support, the following changes have been accumulated
       in the testing and qualification of the driver:
      
       - Fix affinity of ELS ring to slow/deferred event processing
       - Fix Ring attention masks
       - Defer dev_loss_tmo timeout handling to worker thread
       - Consolidate link down error classification for better error checking
       - Remove unused/deprecated nlp_initiator_tmr timer
       - Fix for async scan - move adapter init code back into pci_probe_one
         context. Fix async scan interfaces.
       - Expand validation of ability to create vports
       - Extract VPI resource cnt from firmware
       - Tuning of Login/Reject policies to better deal with overwhelmned targets
       - Misc ELS and discovery fixes
       - Export the npiv_enable attribute to sysfs
       - Mailbox handling fix
       - Add debugfs support
       - A few other small misc fixes:
          - wrong return values, double-frees, bad locking
       - Added adapter failure heartbeat

      [SCSI] lpfc: NPIV: add NPIV support on top of SLI-3 · 92d7f7b0
      James Smart authored
      NPIV support is added to the driver.  It utilizes the interfaces of
      the fc transport for the creation and deletion of vports. Within the
      driver, a new Scsi_Host is created for each NPIV instance, and is
      paired with a new instance of a FC port.  This allows N FC Port
      elements to share a single Adapter.

      [SCSI] lpfc: NPIV: add SLI-3 interface · ed957684
      James Smart authored
      NPIV support is only available via new adapter interface extensions,
      termed SLI-3. This interface changes some of the basic behaviors such
      as command and response ring element sizes and data structures, as
      well as a change in buffer posting.  Note: the new firmware extensions
      are found only on our mid-range and enterprise 4Gig adapters - so NPIV
      support is available only on these newer adapters. The latest firmware
      can be downloaded from the Emulex support page.

      [SCSI] lpfc: NPIV: split ports · 2e0fef85
      James Smart authored
      The driver is reorganized to separate the handling of the adapter from
      the handling of the FC port. Adapter handling includes submissions of
      command requests, receiving responses, and managing adapter resources.
      The FC port includes the discovery engine, login handling, and the
      mapping of a Scsi_Host on the "port".  Although not a large functional
      change, as it touches core structures and functions, resulting in a
      large text delta.
