Add the Online Controller Reset (OCR) to the Driver.9+ OCR is the new feature for megaraid_sas driver which10+ will allow the fw to do the chip reset which will not11+ affact the OS behavious.12+13+ To add the OCR support, driver need to do:14+ a). reset the controller chips -- Xscale and Gen2 which15+ will change the function calls and add the reset function16+ related to this two chips.17+18+ b). during the reset, driver will store the pending cmds19+ which not returned by FW to driver's pending queue. Driver20+ will re-issue those pending cmds again to FW after the OCR21+ finished.22+23+ c). In driver's timeout routine, driver will report to24+ OS as reset. Also driver's queue routine will block the25+ cmds until the OCR finished.26+27+ d). in Driver's ISR routine, if driver get the FW state as28+ state change, FW in Failure status and FW support online controller29+ reset (OCR), driver will start to do the controller reset.30+31+ e). In driver's IOCTL routine, the application cmds will wait for the32+ OCR to finish, then issue the cmds to FW.33+34+ f). Before driver kill adapter, driver will do last chance of35+ OCR to see if driver can bring back the FW.36+37+2. Add the support update flag to the driver to tell LSI megaraid_sas38+ application which driver will support the device update. So application39+ will not need to do the device update after application add/del the device40+ from the system.41+3. In driver's timeout routine, driver will do three time reset if fw is in42+ failed state. Driver will kill adapter if can't bring back FW after the43+ this three times reset.44+4. Add the input parameter max_sectors to 1MB support to our GEN2 controller.45+ customer can use the input paramenter max_sectors to add 1MB support to GEN246+ controller.47+481 Release Date : Thur.
