Documentation: update broken web addresses.

2010-08-04T13:21:40+00:00

Below you will find an updated version from the original series bunching all patches into one big patch
updating broken web addresses that are located in Documentation/*
Some of the addresses date as far far back as 1995 etc... so searching became a bit difficult,
the best way to deal with these is to use web.archive.org to locate these addresses that are outdated.
Now there are also some addresses pointing to .spec files some are located, but some(after searching
on the companies site)where still no where to be found. In this case I just changed the address
to the company site this way the users can contact the company and they can locate them for the users.

[SCSI] megaraid_{mm,mbox}: init fix for kdump

2007-01-13T19:54:23+00:00

1.      Changes in Initialization to fix kdump failure.
        Send SYNC command on loading.
        This command clears the pending commands in the adapter
        and re-initialize its internal RAID structure.
        Without this change, megaraid driver either panics or fails to
        initialize the adapter during kdump's second kernel boot
        if there are pending commands or interrupts from other devices
        sharing the same IRQ.
2.      Authors email-id domain name changed from lsil.com to lsi.com.
        Also modified the MODULE_AUTHOR to megaraidlinux@lsi.com

[SCSI] megaraid_{mm,mbox}: 64-bit DMA capability checker

2006-07-28T18:10:23+00:00

This patch contains
- a fix for 64-bit DMA capability check in megaraid_{mm,mbox} driver.
- includes changes (going back to 32-bit DMA mask if 64-bit DMA mask
failes) suggested by James with previous patch.
- addition of SATA 150-4/6 as commented by Vasily Averin.

With patch, the driver access PCIconfiguration space with dedicated
offset to read a signature. If the signature read, it means that the
controller has capability to handle 64-bit DMA.
Without this patch, the driver used to blindly claim 64-bit DMA
capability.
The issue has been reported by Vasily Averin [vvs@sw.ru].
Thank you Vasily for the reporting.

[SCSI] megaraid_{mm,mbox}: fix a bug in reset handler

2006-04-27T19:08:53+00:00

When abort failed, the driver gets reset handleer called.  In the reset
handler, driver calls 'scsi_done()' callback for same SCSI command packet
(struct scsi_cmnd) multiple times if there are multiple SCSI command packet
in the pend_list.  More over, if there are entry in the pend_lsit with
IOCTL packet associated, the driver returns it to wrong free_list so that,
in turn, the driver could end up with 'NULL pointer dereference..' during
I/O command building with incorrect resource.

Also, the patch contains several minor/cosmetic changes besides this.
