Tuomas,

I might still have a copy of the manual somewhere from way back, if you haven't found it anywhere. Would be on an old disk or even hardcopy in storage, so please confirm you still need it.

Cheers,

 Michael

I'd have to check with DaveM, but such an assumption might in fact exist.
BTW, it would be nice to start CCing linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and
David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> on future discussions.

Hello,

Does anyone have the register descriptions for the FAS216 chip? It would seem that receiving only one byte during reconnect is perfectly normal [1] unless SCSI-2 features are explicitly enabled (which esp_scsi doesn't seem to be doing).

Also, looking at the timeout formulae in the old NCR53C9x.c driver, the values would be different for FAS216. Why was this dropped from the modern esp_scsi?
