Jeremy Higdon <jeremy () sgi ! com>: For those to whom this is new (it was discussed on linux-kernel and linux-ia64 I believe), normal PCI register reads imply that PCI DMA writes that occured prior to the PCI MMR (memory mapped register) read (on the PCI bus) will be reflected in system memory once the MMR read is complete. On our platforms, we can speed up the MMR read significantly if that ordering requirement is "relaxed". So I attempted to find the common register reads that don't have a need for this ordering so that I could make them use this faster read. drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_def.h | 3 +++ drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_iocb.c | 6 +++--- drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_isr.c | 2 +- 3 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
