Abstract:
A driver of a host bus adapter of a storage controller performs hardware resets of buses and other logic to which an embedded port of the host bus adapter is connected, in a first period of quiescing of I/O operations in the embedded port. The driver transmits one or more commands to the embedded port to resume selected I/O operations in the embedded port. A reinitialization of the driver is performed during a second period of quiescing of I/O operations in the embedded port, prior to sending a command to allow normal I/O operations in the embedded port.

Claim (Index 21):
A method performed by a driver of a host bus adapter of a storage controller, the method comprising:\n in response to determining that an error has occurred in the storage controller, transmitting a first set of commands to an embedded port of the host bus adapter to cause the embedded port to enter into a first period of quiescing of I/O operations, wherein hardware resets of buses and other logic to which the embedded port is connected are performed during the first period; restoring configuration space registers of the buses and other logic to a state prior to performing of the hardware resets and subsequently transmitting, by the driver, one or more commands to the embedded port to resume selected I/O operations in the embedded port; subsequent to resumption and completion of the selected I/O operations, transmitting a second set of commands to the embedded port to cause the embedded port to enter into a second period of quiescing of I/O operations; and performing reinitialization of the driver during the second period of quiescing of I/O operations in the embedded port.
