[DragonFlyBSD - Submit #3044] isp: Unify firmware handling with the rest of the system.

[bugtracker-admin at leaf.dragonflybsd.org]

Issue #3044 has been updated by sucanjan at fit.cvut.cz.


I have the tool finished.

During the work I discovered a mistake I made. In the asm_2100.h file there are two variants of firmware image for the same device. When I was processing the file I concatenated both variants to one image. Which variant is compiled depends on if USE_SMALLER_2100_FIRMWARE is defined or not. 
The solution I would like to implement is to generate two images (one for each variant) and place the conditional selection to the sys/dev/disk/isp_pci.c to the isp_pci_attach() function where the decision which image to get by firmware_get() is made.

Could it be done in this way?

Hello,

these patches convert firmware binary data from C arrays in a header files to uuencode .uu files. Byte order of the firmware image is little-endian. As far as DragonFly BSD supports only little-endian architectures it's ok. But in case of a big-endian architecture the byte order must be changed before firmware is processed by the isp driver. They also move the .uu images to a sys/contrib/dev/isp.

The first part concerns these firmwares: isp_1040, isp_1040_it, isp_1080, isp_1080_it, isp_12160, isp_12160_it, isp_2100, isp_2200, isp_2300 and isp_2322.
The second part concerns these firmwares: isp_2400, isp_2400_multi, isp_2500, isp_2500_multi.

The division is needed because a size of a single patch must be less than 5 MB for the bugtracker to accept.
