From: Krishna Chaitanya Gudipati <kgudipat@xxxxxxxxxxx> This is an interim submission of Brocade BFA FC SCSI Driver for code review. We moved FC protocol/port state machine part of the driver to the firmware to make the driver simpler. We also implemented the code review comments received from last submission which include: 1) replaced bfa specific list management routines by standard linux list implemetation. 2) Minor fixes to naming, Makefile, kconfig etc. 3) Other review comments that were pointed out in regard to storing return values and use them as error codes etc., 4) We are still considering the comments from Eike regarding using devres for our driver and this patch does not have that feature but fixes all other comments. The driver submitted now is fully functional. It contains a serial of 5 patches generated using 2.6.29 kernel. Here is a brief description of each patch: [PATCH 1/5]: Linux driver specific code, things such as module load/unload, PCI probe/release, interrupt handler, and sysfs interface etc. All the files start with "bfad_" prefix. [PATCH 2/5]: Hardware/FW access code. All files start with "bfa_" prefix. [PATCH 3/5]: Common header files shared by linux driver specific and hardware/FW access code. [PATCH 4/5]: Updated Kconfig and Makefile for driver/scsi, and Makefile for bfa driver. [PATCH 5/5]: Updated MAINTAINER file.
