/*
 * IDE ATAPI streaming tape driver.
 *
 * This driver is a part of the Linux ide driver and works in co-operation
 * with linux/drivers/block/ide.c.
 *
 * The driver, in co-operation with ide.c, basically traverses the 
 * request-list for the block device interface. The character device
 * interface, on the other hand, creates new requests, adds them
 * to the request-list of the block device, and waits for their completion.
 *
 * Pipelined operation mode is now supported on both reads and writes.
 *
 * The block device major and minor numbers are determined from the
 * tape's relative position in the ide interfaces, as explained in ide.c.
 *
 * The character device interface consists of the following devices:
 *
 * ht0          major 37, minor 0       first  IDE tape, rewind on close.
 * ht1          major 37, minor 1       second IDE tape, rewind on close.
 * ...
 * nht0         major 37, minor 128     first  IDE tape, no rewind on close.
 * nht1         major 37, minor 129     second IDE tape, no rewind on close.
 * ...
 *
 * Run linux/scripts/MAKEDEV.ide to create the above entries.
 *
 * The general magnetic tape commands compatible interface, as defined by
 * include/linux/mtio.h, is accessible through the character device.
 *
 * General ide driver configuration options, such as the interrupt-unmask
 * flag, can be configured by issuing an ioctl to the block device interface,
 * as any other ide device.
 *
 * Our own ide-tape ioctl's can be issued to either the block device or
 * the character device interface.
 *
 * Maximal throughput with minimal bus load will usually be achieved in the
 * following scenario:
 *
 *      1.      ide-tape is operating in the pipelined operation mode.
 *      2.      No buffering is performed by the user backup program.
 *
 * Testing was done with a 2 GB CONNER CTMA 4000 IDE ATAPI Streaming Tape Drive.
 * 
 * Ver 0.1   Nov  1 95   Pre-working code :-)
 * Ver 0.2   Nov 23 95   A short backup (few megabytes) and restore procedure
 *                        was successful ! (Using tar cvf ... on the block
 *                        device interface).
 *                       A longer backup resulted in major swapping, bad
 *                        overall Linux performance and eventually failed as
 *                        we received non serial read-ahead requests from the
 *                        buffer cache.
 * Ver 0.3   Nov 28 95   Long backups are now possible, thanks to the
 *                        character device interface. Linux's responsiveness
 *                        and performance doesn't seem to be much affected
 *                        from the background backup procedure.
 *                       Some general mtio.h magnetic tape operations are
 *                        now supported by our character device. As a result,
 *                        popular tape utilities are starting to work with
 *                        ide tapes :-)
 *                       The following configurations were tested:
 *                              1. An IDE ATAPI TAPE shares the same interface
 *                                 and irq with an IDE ATAPI CDROM.
 *                              2. An IDE ATAPI TAPE shares the same interface
 *                                 and irq with a normal IDE disk.
 *                        Both configurations seemed to work just fine !
 *                        However, to be on the safe side, it is meanwhile
 *                        recommended to give the IDE TAPE its own interface
 *                        and irq.
 *                       The one thing which needs to be done here is to
 *                        add a "request postpone" feature to ide.c,
 *                        so that we won't have to wait for the tape to finish
 *                        performing a long media access (DSC) request (such
 *                        as a rewind) before we can access the other device
 *                        on the same interface. This effect doesn't disturb
 *                        normal operation most of the time because read/write
 *                        requests are relatively fast, and once we are
 *                        performing one tape r/w request, a lot of requests
 *                        from the other device can be queued and ide.c will
 *                        service all of them after this single tape request.
 * Ver 1.0   Dec 11 95   Integrated into Linux 1.3.46 development tree.
 *                       On each read / write request, we now ask the drive
 *                        if we can transfer a constant number of bytes
 *                        (a parameter of the drive) only to its buffers,
 *                        without causing actual media access. If we can't,
 *                        we just wait until we can by polling the DSC bit.
 *                        This ensures that while we are not transferring
 *                        more bytes than the constant referred to above, the
 *                        interrupt latency will not become too high and
 *                        we won't cause an interrupt timeout, as happened
 *                        occasionally in the previous version.
 *                       While polling for DSC, the current request is
 *                        postponed and ide.c is free to handle requests from
 *                        the other device. This is handled transparently to
 *                        ide.c. The hwgroup locking method which was used
 *                        in the previous version was removed.
 *                       Use of new general features which are provided by
 *                        ide.c for use with atapi devices.
 *                        (Programming done by Mark Lord)
 *                       Few potential bug fixes (Again, suggested by Mark)
 *                       Single character device data transfers are now
 *                        not limited in size, as they were before.
 *                       We are asking the tape about its recommended
 *                        transfer unit and send a larger data transfer
 *                        as several transfers of the above size.
 *                        For best results, use an integral number of this
 *                        basic unit (which is shown during driver
 *                        initialization). I will soon add an ioctl to get
 *                        this important parameter.
 *                       Our data transfer buffer is allocated on startup,
 *                        rather than before each data transfer. This should
 *                        ensure that we will indeed have a data buffer.
 * Ver 1.1   Dec 14 95   Fixed random problems which occurred when the tape
 *                        shared an interface with another device.
 *                        (poll_for_dsc was a complete mess).
 *                       Removed some old (non-active) code which had
 *                        to do with supporting buffer cache originated
 *                        requests.
 *                       The block device interface can now be opened, so
 *                        that general ide driver features like the unmask
 *                        interrupts flag can be selected with an ioctl.
 *                        This is the only use of the block device interface.
 *                       New fast pipelined operation mode (currently only on
 *                        writes). When using the pipelined mode, the
 *                        throughput can potentially reach the maximum
 *                        tape supported throughput, regardless of the
 *                        user backup program. On my tape drive, it sometimes
 *                        boosted performance by a factor of 2. Pipelined
 *                        mode is enabled by default, but since it has a few
 *                        downfalls as well, you may want to disable it.
 *                        A short explanation of the pipelined operation mode
 *                        is available below.
 * Ver 1.2   Jan  1 96   Eliminated pipelined mode race condition.
 *                       Added pipeline read mode. As a result, restores
 *                        are now as fast as backups.
 *                       Optimized shared interface behavior. The new behavior
 *                        typically results in better IDE bus efficiency and
 *                        higher tape throughput.
 *                       Pre-calculation of the expected read/write request
 *                        service time, based on the tape's parameters. In
 *                        the pipelined operation mode, this allows us to
 *                        adjust our polling frequency to a much lower value,
 *                        and thus to dramatically reduce our load on Linux,
 *                        without any decrease in performance.
 *                       Implemented additional mtio.h operations.
 *                       The recommended user block size is returned by
 *                        the MTIOCGET ioctl.
 *                       Additional minor changes.
 * Ver 1.3   Feb  9 96   Fixed pipelined read mode bug which prevented the
 *                        use of some block sizes during a restore procedure.
 *                       The character device interface will now present a
 *                        continuous view of the media - any mix of block sizes
 *                        during a backup/restore procedure is supported. The
 *                        driver will buffer the requests internally and
 *                        convert them to the tape's recommended transfer
 *                        unit, making performance almost independent of the
 *                        chosen user block size.
 *                       Some improvements in error recovery.
 *                       By cooperating with ide-dma.c, bus mastering DMA can
 *                        now sometimes be used with IDE tape drives as well.
 *                        Bus mastering DMA has the potential to dramatically
 *                        reduce the CPU's overhead when accessing the device,
 *                        and can be enabled by using hdparm -d1 on the tape's
 *                        block device interface. For more info, read the
 *                        comments in ide-dma.c.

 * Ver 1.10  Nov  5 96   Major reorganization.

 * Ver 1.12  Dec  7 97   Fix random memory overwriting and/or last block data

 *                               debugging output only)
 *                   AJN-2) Added more debugging output, and
 *                              added ide-tape: where missing. I would also
 *                              like to add tape->name where possible
 *                   AJN-3) Added different debug_level's 
 *                              via /proc/ide/hdc/settings
 *                              "debug_level" determines amount of debugging output;
 *                              can be changed using /proc/ide/hdx/settings
 *                              0 : almost no debugging output

 *                              errors from 100 to 1000 in idetape_get_logical_blk
 *                   Proposed changes to code:
 *                   1) output "logical_blk_num" via /proc
 *                   2) output "current_operation" via /proc
 *                   3) Either solve or document the fact that `mt rewind' is
 *                      required after reading from /dev/nhtx to be
 *                      able to rmmod the idetape module;
 *                      Also, sometimes an application finishes but the
 *                      device remains `busy' for some time. Same cause ?
 *                   Proposed changes to release-notes:
 *                   4) write a simple `quickstart' section in the
 *                      release notes; I volunteer if you don't want to
 *                   5) include a pointer to video4linux in the doc
 *                      to stimulate video applications
 *                   6) release notes lines 331 and 362: explain what happens
 *                      if the application data rate is higher than 1100 KB/s; 
 *                      similar approach to lower-than-500 kB/s ?

/*
 * An overview of the pipelined operation mode.
 *
 * In the pipelined write mode, we will usually just add requests to our
 * pipeline and return immediately, before we even start to service them. The
 * user program will then have enough time to prepare the next request while
 * we are still busy servicing previous requests. In the pipelined read mode,
 * the situation is similar - we add read-ahead requests into the pipeline,
 * before the user even requested them.
 *
 * The pipeline can be viewed as a "safety net" which will be activated when
 * the system load is high and prevents the user backup program from keeping up
 * with the current tape speed. At this point, the pipeline will get
 * shorter and shorter but the tape will still be streaming at the same speed.
 * Assuming we have enough pipeline stages, the system load will hopefully
 * decrease before the pipeline is completely empty, and the backup program
 * will be able to "catch up" and refill the pipeline again.
 * 
 * When using the pipelined mode, it would be best to disable any type of
 * buffering done by the user program, as ide-tape already provides all the
 * benefits in the kernel, where it can be done in a more efficient way.
 * As we will usually not block the user program on a request, the most
 * efficient user code will then be a simple read-write-read-... cycle.
 * Any additional logic will usually just slow down the backup process.
 *
 * Using the pipelined mode, I get a constant over 400 KBps throughput,
 * which seems to be the maximum throughput supported by my tape.
 *
 * However, there are some downfalls:
 *
 *      1.      We use memory (for data buffers) in proportional to the number
 *              of pipeline stages (each stage is about 26 KB with my tape).
 *      2.      In the pipelined write mode, we cheat and postpone error codes
 *              to the user task. In read mode, the actual tape position
 *              will be a bit further than the last requested block.
 *
 * Concerning (1):
 *
 *      1.      We allocate stages dynamically only when we need them. When
 *              we don't need them, we don't consume additional memory. In
 *              case we can't allocate stages, we just manage without them
 *              (at the expense of decreased throughput) so when Linux is
 *              tight in memory, we will not pose additional difficulties.
 *
 *      2.      The maximum number of stages (which is, in fact, the maximum
 *              amount of memory) which we allocate is limited by the compile
 *              time parameter IDETAPE_MAX_PIPELINE_STAGES.
 *
 *      3.      The maximum number of stages is a controlled parameter - We
 *              don't start from the user defined maximum number of stages
 *              but from the lower IDETAPE_MIN_PIPELINE_STAGES (again, we
 *              will not even allocate this amount of stages if the user
 *              program can't handle the speed). We then implement a feedback
 *              loop which checks if the pipeline is empty, and if it is, we
 *              increase the maximum number of stages as necessary until we
 *              reach the optimum value which just manages to keep the tape
 *              busy with minimum allocated memory or until we reach
 *              IDETAPE_MAX_PIPELINE_STAGES.
 *
 * Concerning (2):
 *
 *      In pipelined write mode, ide-tape can not return accurate error codes
 *      to the user program since we usually just add the request to the
 *      pipeline without waiting for it to be serviced. In case an error
 *      occurs, I will report it on the next user request.
 *
 *      In the pipelined read mode, subsequent read requests or forward
 *      filemark spacing will perform correctly, as we preserve all blocks
 *      and filemarks which we encountered during our excess read-ahead.
 * 
 *      For accurate tape positioning and error reporting, disabling
 *      pipelined mode might be the best option.
 *
 * You can enable/disable/tune the pipelined operation mode by adjusting
 * the compile time parameters below.
 */

/*
 *      Possible improvements.
 *
 *      1.      Support for the ATAPI overlap protocol.
 *
 *              In order to maximize bus throughput, we currently use the DSC
 *              overlap method which enables ide.c to service requests from the
 *              other device while the tape is busy executing a command. The
 *              DSC overlap method involves polling the tape's status register
 *              for the DSC bit, and servicing the other device while the tape
 *              isn't ready.
 *
 *              In the current QIC development standard (December 1995),
 *              it is recommended that new tape drives will *in addition* 
 *              implement the ATAPI overlap protocol, which is used for the
 *              same purpose - efficient use of the IDE bus, but is interrupt
 *              driven and thus has much less CPU overhead.
 *
 *              ATAPI overlap is likely to be supported in most new ATAPI
 *              devices, including new ATAPI cdroms, and thus provides us
 *              a method by which we can achieve higher throughput when
 *              sharing a (fast) ATA-2 disk with any (slow) new ATAPI device.

 *
 *      1.      Before a read/write packet command, to ensure that we
 *              can transfer data from/to the tape's data buffers, without
 *              causing an actual media access. In case the tape is not
 *              ready yet, we take out our request from the device
 *              request queue, so that ide.c will service requests from
 *              the other device on the same interface meanwhile.
 *
 *      2.      After the successful initialization of a "media access
 *              packet command", which is a command which can take a long
 *              time to complete (it can be several seconds or even an hour).
 *
 *              Again, we postpone our request in the middle to free the bus
 *              for the other device. The polling frequency here should be
 *              lower than the read/write frequency since those media access
 *              commands are slow. We start from a "fast" frequency -
 *              IDETAPE_DSC_MA_FAST (one second), and if we don't receive DSC
 *              after IDETAPE_DSC_MA_THRESHOLD (5 minutes), we switch it to a
 *              lower frequency - IDETAPE_DSC_MA_SLOW (1 minute).
 *
 *      We also set a timeout for the timer, in case something goes wrong.

/*
 *      Packet Command Interface
 *
 *      The current Packet Command is available in tape->pc, and will not
 *      change until we finish handling it. Each packet command is associated
 *      with a callback function that will be called when the command is
 *      finished.
 *
 *      The handling will be done in three stages:
 *
 *      1.      idetape_issue_packet_command will send the packet command to the
 *              drive, and will set the interrupt handler to idetape_pc_intr.
 *
 *      2.      On each interrupt, idetape_pc_intr will be called. This step
 *              will be repeated until the device signals us that no more
 *              interrupts will be issued.
 *
 *      3.      ATAPI Tape media access commands have immediate status with a
 *              delayed process. In case of a successful initiation of a
 *              media access packet command, the DSC bit will be set when the
 *              actual execution of the command is finished. 
 *              Since the tape drive will not issue an interrupt, we have to
 *              poll for this event. In this case, we define the request as
 *              "low priority request" by setting rq_status to
 *              IDETAPE_RQ_POSTPONED,   set a timer to poll for DSC and exit
 *              the driver.
 *
 *              ide.c will then give higher priority to requests which
 *              originate from the other device, until will change rq_status
 *              to RQ_ACTIVE.
 *
 *      4.      When the packet command is finished, it will be checked for errors.
 *
 *      5.      In case an error was found, we queue a request sense packet
 *              command in front of the request queue and retry the operation
 *              up to IDETAPE_MAX_PC_RETRIES times.
 *
 *      6.      In case no error was found, or we decided to give up and not
 *              to retry again, the callback function will be called and then
 *              we will handle the next request.

/*
 *      idetape_mtioctop is called from idetape_chrdev_ioctl when
 *      the general mtio MTIOCTOP ioctl is requested.
 *
 *      We currently support the following mtio.h operations:
 *
 *      MTFSF   -       Space over mt_count filemarks in the positive direction.
 *                      The tape is positioned after the last spaced filemark.
 *
 *      MTFSFM  -       Same as MTFSF, but the tape is positioned before the
 *                      last filemark.
 *
 *      MTBSF   -       Steps background over mt_count filemarks, tape is
 *                      positioned before the last filemark.
 *
 *      MTBSFM  -       Like MTBSF, only tape is positioned after the last filemark.
 *
 *      Note:
 *
 *              MTBSF and MTBSFM are not supported when the tape doesn't
 *              support spacing over filemarks in the reverse direction.
 *              In this case, MTFSFM is also usually not supported (it is
 *              supported in the rare case in which we crossed the filemark
 *              during our read-ahead pipelined operation mode).
 *              
 *      MTWEOF  -       Writes mt_count filemarks. Tape is positioned after
 *                      the last written filemark.
 *
 *      MTREW   -       Rewinds tape.
 *
 *      MTLOAD  -       Loads the tape.
 *
 *      MTOFFL  -       Puts the tape drive "Offline": Rewinds the tape and
 *      MTUNLOAD        prevents further access until the media is replaced.
 *
 *      MTNOP   -       Flushes tape buffers.
 *
 *      MTRETEN -       Retension media. This typically consists of one end
 *                      to end pass on the media.
 *
 *      MTEOM   -       Moves to the end of recorded data.
 *
 *      MTERASE -       Erases tape.
 *
 *      MTSETBLK -      Sets the user block size to mt_count bytes. If
 *                      mt_count is 0, we will attempt to autodetect
 *                      the block size.
 *
 *      MTSEEK  -       Positions the tape in a specific block number, where
 *                      each block is assumed to contain which user_block_size
 *                      bytes.
 *
 *      MTSETPART -     Switches to another tape partition.
 *
 *      MTLOCK -        Locks the tape door.
 *
 *      MTUNLOCK -      Unlocks the tape door.
 *
 *      The following commands are currently not supported:
 *
 *      MTFSS, MTBSS, MTWSM, MTSETDENSITY,
 *      MTSETDRVBUFFER, MT_ST_BOOLEANS, MT_ST_WRITE_THRESHOLD.
