+1. Add the Online Controller Reset (OCR) to the Driver.
+ OCR is the new feature for megaraid_sas driver which
+ will allow the fw to do the chip reset which will not
+ affact the OS behavious.
+
+ To add the OCR support, driver need to do:
+ a). reset the controller chips -- Xscale and Gen2 which
+ will change the function calls and add the reset function
+ related to this two chips.
+
+ b). during the reset, driver will store the pending cmds
+ which not returned by FW to driver's pending queue. Driver
+ will re-issue those pending cmds again to FW after the OCR
+ finished.
+
+ c). In driver's timeout routine, driver will report to
+ OS as reset. Also driver's queue routine will block the
+ cmds until the OCR finished.
+
+ d). in Driver's ISR routine, if driver get the FW state as
+ state change, FW in Failure status and FW support online controller
+ reset (OCR), driver will start to do the controller reset.
+
+ e). In driver's IOCTL routine, the application cmds will wait for the
+ OCR to finish, then issue the cmds to FW.
+
+ f). Before driver kill adapter, driver will do last chance of
+ OCR to see if driver can bring back the FW.
+
+2. Add the support update flag to the driver to tell LSI megaraid_sas
+ application which driver will support the device update. So application
+ will not need to do the device update after application add/del the device
+ from the system.
+3. In driver's timeout routine, driver will do three time reset if fw is in
+ failed state. Driver will kill adapter if can't bring back FW after the
+ this three times reset.
+4. Add the input parameter max_sectors to 1MB support to our GEN2 controller.
+ customer can use the input paramenter max_sectors to add 1MB support to GEN2
+ controller.

James,
Thanks for correcting that. Did you also applied 2/5, 3/5 and 4/5 patches?
By the way, I always use checkpatch.pl to check the patch before I attach the patch to the e-mail. Also I just went to the 5/5 patch to verify the patch: the steps:
1. go to http://marc.info/?l=linux-scsi&m=128688974201201&w=2
2. click: ["megasas-version.patch" (application/octet-stream)] to download this patch.
3. Used the checkpatch.pl to check (I used the cmd: "checkpatch.pl --no-tree megasas-version.patch")
It looks OK for me (no errors). It is maybe the checkpatch.pl I used does not get updated or some steps are not correct. I will find out the updated one to try and find out the reasons.
Thanks,
Bo Yang

e). In driver's IOCTL routine, the application cmds will wait for the
OCR to finish, then issue the cmds to FW.
+ f). Before driver kill adapter, driver will do last chance of
+ OCR to see if driver can bring back the FW.

+2. Add the support update flag to the driver to tell LSI megaraid_sas
+ application which driver will support the device update. So application
+ will not need to do the device update after application add/del the device
+ from the system.
+3. In driver's timeout routine, driver will do three time reset if fw is in
+ failed state. Driver will kill adapter if can't bring back FW after the
+ this three times reset.
+4. Add the input parameter max_sectors to 1MB support to our GEN2 controller.
+ customer can use the input paramenter max_sectors to add 1MB support to GEN2
+ controller.
