.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
and
|
|
.Nm sw
|
|
.Qq Tn SCSI Weird
|
|
drivers provide support for the
|
|
.Tn NCR
|
|
5380
|
|
.Tn SCSI
|
|
Bus Controller (SBC) chip found on various Sun Microsystems
|
|
.Tn CPU
|
|
motherboards (obio), and on the
|
|
.Qq Sun-3 VME SCSI
|
|
.Pq Sun part # 501-1236
|
|
board used in systems with
|
|
.Tn VME
|
|
bus.
|
|
.Ss sun3 and sun3x
|
|
The
|
|
.Tn sun3
|
|
and
|
|
.Tn sun3x
|
|
version of this driver can be configured with a
|
|
.Em flags
|
|
directive in the
|
|
.Xr config 8
|
|
file.
|
|
The values are bits in a bitfield, and are interpreted as follows:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -offset indent -compact -width 0x000ff
|
|
.It 0x000ff
|
|
Set bit (1<<target) to disable
|
|
.Tn SCSI
|
|
disconnect/reselect
|
|
.It 0x0ff00
|
|
Set bit (1<<(target+8)) to disable
|
|
.Tn SCSI
|
|
parity checking
|
|
.It 0x10000
|
|
Set this bit to disable
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
interrupts (poll)
|
|
.It 0x20000
|
|
Set this bit to disable
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
entirely (use PIO)
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Qq flags 0x1000f
|
|
would disable
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
interrupts, and disable disconnect/reselect for targets 0-3.
|
|
The
|
|
.Qq target
|
|
is the
|
|
.Tn SCSI
|
|
ID number of a particular device on a particular
|
|
.Tn SCSI
|
|
bus.
|
|
.Ss sun4
|
|
The
|
|
.Tn sun4
|
|
version of this driver can also be configured with a
|
|
.Em flags
|
|
directive in the
|
|
.Xr config 8
|
|
file.
|
|
The values are bits in a bitfield, and are interpreted as follows:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -offset indent -compact -width 0x01
|
|
.It 0x01
|
|
Use
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
.Pq may be polled
|
|
.It 0x02
|
|
Use
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
completion interrupts
|
|
.It 0x04
|
|
Allow
|
|
.Tn SCSI
|
|
disconnect/reselect
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Qq flags 0x07
|
|
would enable
|
|
.Tn DMA ,
|
|
interrupts, and reselect.
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
is enabled in the
|
|
.Tn sun4
|
|
driver.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The
|
|
.Tn VME
|
|
variant has a bit to enable or disable the
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
engine, but that bit also gates the interrupt line from the
|
|
.Tn NCR5380
|
|
.Pq !! .
|
|
Therefore, in order to get any interrupt from the
|
|
.Tn NCR5380 ,
|
|
(i.e. for reselect) one must clear the
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
engine transfer count and then enable
|
|
.Tn DMA .
|
|
This has the further complication that you CAN NOT touch the
|
|
.Tn NCR5380
|
|
while the
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
enable bit is set, so we have to turn
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
back off before we even look at the
|
|
.Tn NCR5380 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Support for the Sun 4/100
|
|
.Nm sw
|
|
.Qq Tn SCSI Weird
|
|
is not complete.
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
works, but interrupts (and, thus, reselection) don't for reasons unknown.
|
|
Further progress has halted pending the availability of a machine for testing.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Tn DMA ,
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
completion interrupts, and reselection work fine on a Sun 4/260 with modern
|
|
.Tn SCSI-II
|
|
disks attached.
|
|
There have been reports of reselection failing on
|
|
.Tn Sun
|
|
Shoebox-type configurations where
|
|
there are multiple non-SCSI devices behind
|
|
.Tn Emulex
|
|
or
|
|
.Tn Adaptec
|
|
bridges.
|
|
These devices pre-date the
|
|
.Tn SCSI-I
|
|
spec, and might not behave the way the NCR5380 code expects.
|
|
For this reason, only
|
|
.Tn DMA
|
|
is enabled by default in the
|
|
.Tn sun4
|
|
driver.
