driver provides support for I2O SCSI bus adapter ports and child
peripherals.
.Pp
I2O adapters present each child peripheral attached to a bus adapter port
as an individual device.
In order to present the appearance of a bus, the
IOPs present each child peripheral attached to a bus adapter port as an
individual device. In order to present the appearance of a bus, the
.Nm
driver groups child peripherals by controlling port.
.Pp
On IOPs containing a SCSI port and block or tape driver modules, some SCSI
devices may not be directly accessible. For each inaccessible device, a
message will be displayed during configuration. For example:
.Bd -literal
iopsp0: target 0,0 (tid 70): in use by tid 47
.Ed

Such devices will usually be indirectly accessible as block devices, either
individually or as part of an array.
