(CR 125888, 125675) - Increase CQE count from 256 to 1024. (CR 126149) Add support for ABTS failure handling: - Add asynchronous ABTS notification event feature to driver (CR 124578) - Change driver message 3092 and 3116 to KERN_WARNING (CR 124768) - Alter the SCR ELS command to use the temporary RPI and the Destination DID for SLI4-FC (CR 126070) FC and SCSI Discovery Fixes: - Clear the virtual fabrics bit (word 1 bit 30) when sending the FLOGI and FDISC. (CR 124339) - Return a MLQUEUE_DEVICE_BUSY if the driver detects that an I/O is being retried too quickly (CR 124668) - Remove NDLP reference put in lpfc_cmpl_els_logo_acc for all but fabric nodes (CR 123924) - Only retry FDISCs every second and stop retrying after devloss number of retries (CR 13939) - Check to see if vports are unloading before adding them to the vport work array. (CR 124996) - Fixed illegal state transition during driver unload (CR 124191) - Added missing protection on setting/clearing of vport->fc_flag bit (CR 126002) - Set NPIV flag in lpfc_mbx_process_link_up for all ports sli3 and above. (CR 126094) - Clear FCP command bytes that are not used. (CR 126209) Critical Miscellaneous fixes - Make lpfc_sli4_pci_mem_unset interface type aware (CR 124390) - Convert byte count to word count when calling __iowrite32_copy (CR 122550) - Checked the ERR1 and ERR2 registers for error attention due to SLI Port state affected by forced debug dump. (CR 122986, 122426, 124859) - Use the lpfc_readl routine instead of the readl for the port status register read in lpfc_handle_eratt_s4 (CR 125403) - Call lpfc_sli4_queue_destroy inside of lpfc_sli4_brdreset before doing a pci function reset (CR 125124, 125168, 125572, 125622) - Zero out the HBQ when it is allocated (CR 125663) - Alter port reset log messages to indicate error type (CR 125989) - Added proper NULL pointer checking to all the places that accessing the queue memory (CR 125832) Add Loopback support for SLI4 adapters - Add Basic support for SLI4 Loopback.
