** ARECA FIRMWARE SPEC
** Usage of IOP331 adapter
** (All In/Out is in IOP331’s view)
** 1. Message 0 –> InitThread message and return code
** 2. Doorbell is used for RS-232 emulation
** inDoorBell : bit0 – data in ready
** (DRIVER DATA WRITE OK)
** bit1 – data out has been read
** (DRIVER DATA READ OK)
** outDooeBell: bit0 – data out ready
** (IOP331 DATA WRITE OK)
** bit1 – data in has been read
** (IOP331 DATA READ OK)
** 3. Index Memory Usage
** offset 0xf00 : for RS232 out (request buffer)
** offset 0xe00 : for RS232 in (scratch buffer)
** offset 0xa00 : for inbound message code message_rwbuffer
** (driver send to IOP331)
** offset 0xa00 : for outbound message code message_rwbuffer
** (IOP331 send to driver)
** 4. RS-232 emulation
** Currently 128 byte buffer is used
** 1st uint32_t : Data length (1–124)
** Byte 4–127 : Max 124 bytes of data
** 5. PostQ
** All SCSI Command must be sent through postQ:
** (inbound queue port) Request frame must be 32 bytes aligned
** #bit27–bit31 => flag for post ccb
** #bit0–bit26 => real address (bit27–bit31) of post arcmsr_cdb
** bit31 :
** 0 : 256 bytes frame
** 1 : 512 bytes frame
** bit30 :
** 0 : normal request
** 1 : BIOS request
** bit29 : reserved
** bit28 : reserved
** bit27 : reserved
** —————————————————————————
** (outbount queue port) Request reply
** #bit27–bit31
** => flag for reply
** #bit0–bit26
** => real address (bit27–bit31) of reply arcmsr_cdb
** bit31 : must be 0 (for this type of reply)
** bit30 : reserved for BIOS handshake
** bit29 : reserved
** bit28 :
** 0 : no error, ignore AdapStatus/DevStatus/SenseData
** 1 : Error, error code in AdapStatus/DevStatus/SenseData
** bit27 : reserved
** 6. BIOS request
** All BIOS request is the same with request from PostQ
** Except :
** Request frame is sent from configuration space
** offset: 0x78 : Request Frame (bit30 == 1)
** offset: 0x18 : writeonly to generate
** IRQ to IOP331
** Completion of request:
** (bit30 == 0, bit28==err flag)
** 7. Definition of SGL entry (structure)
** 8. Message1 Out - Diag Status Code (????)
** 9. Message0 message code :
** 0x00 : NOP

** (re-start if background is halted)
** 0x07 : Check If Host Command Pending
** (Novell May Need This Function)
** 0x08 : Set controller time
** ->offset 0xa00 : for inbound message code message_rwbuffer
** (driver to IOP331)
** byte 0 : 0xaa <– signature

** RS-232 Interface for Areca Raid Controller
** The low level command interface is exclusive with VT100 terminal
** ——————————————————————–
** 1. Sequence of command execution
** ——————————————————————–
** (A) Header : 3 bytes sequence (0x5E, 0x01, 0x61)
** (B) Command block : variable length of data including length,
** command code, data and checksum byte
** (C) Return data : variable length of data
** ——————————————————————–
** 2. Command block
** ——————————————————————–
** (A) 1st byte : command block length (low byte)
** (B) 2nd byte : command block length (high byte)
** note ..command block length shouldn’t > 2040 bytes,
** length excludes these two bytes
** (C) 3rd byte : command code
** (D) 4th and following bytes : variable length data bytes
** depends on command code
** (E) last byte : checksum byte (sum of 1st byte until last data byte)
** ——————————————————————–
** 3. Command code and associated data
** ——————————————————————–
** The following are command code defined in raid controller Command
** code 0x10–0x1? are used for system level management,
** no password checking is needed and should be implemented in separate
** well controlled utility and not for end user access.
** Command code 0x20–0x?? always check the password,
** password must be entered to enable these command.
