36 .Nd Qlogic based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters
40 For one or more SCSI busses:
43 This driver provides access to
49 SCSI features include support for Ultra SCSI and wide mode transactions
52 Ultra2 LVD (for the ISP1080 and ISP1280), and Ultra3 LVD (for the
55 Fibre Channel support uses FCP SCSI profile for
57 and utilizes Class 3 and Class 2 connections (Qlogic 2100 is Class
58 3 only, minor patches to the Qlogic 2200 to force Class 2 mode).
59 Support is available for Public and Private loops, and for
60 point-to-point connections (Qlogic 2200 only).
61 The newer 2-Gigabit cards (2300, 2312) are also supported.
63 supported for all (in fact,
66 Fabric support is enabled by default (but may
67 be contingent upon the correct firmware being loaded).
69 Firmware is now available if the
71 module is loaded during bootstrap (q.v.).
73 It is very strongly recommended that you use the firmware available
76 as it is the most likely to have been tested with this driver.
78 Supported cards include:
80 .Bl -tag -width xxxxxx -offset indent
82 SBus Fast Wide, Ultra Fast Wide cards, Single Ended or Differential
85 Performance Technology ISP1000 variants.
87 Qlogic 1020 Fast Wide and Differential Fast Wide PCI cards.
89 Qlogic 1040 Ultra Wide and Differential Ultra Wide PCI cards.
91 Performance Technology ISP1040 variants.
93 Qlogic 1240 Dual Bus Ultra Wide and Differential Ultra Wide PCI
96 Qlogic 1280 LVD Ultra2 Wide PCI cards.
98 Qlogic 1280 Dual Bus LVD Ultra2 Wide PCI cards.
100 Qlogic 12160 Dual Bus LVD Ultra3 Wide PCI cards.
102 Qlogic 2100 and 2100A Copper and Optical Fibre Channel Arbitrated
105 Qlogic Dual Loop 2100A Optical Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop PCI
108 Qlogic 2200 Copper and Optical Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop PCI
111 Qlogic 2200 Dual Bus Optical Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop PCI
114 Qlogic 2300 Optical Fibre Channel PCI cards.
116 Qlogic 2312 Optical Fibre Channel PCI cards.
118 Performance Technology ISP2100 variants.
120 Antares Microsystems ISP2100 variants.
122 .Sh CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
123 Target mode support may be enabled with the
125 .Cd options ISP_TARGET_MODE
129 The following options are switchable by setting values in the loader
130 configuration file (see the
135 .Bl -tag -width "isp_no_fwload" -compact
137 A bit mask of units to skip configuration for.
139 A bit mask of units to use PCI Memory space instead of I/O space
142 A bit mask of units to use PCI I/O space instead of Memory space
145 A bit mask of units that you wish to ignore board NVRAM settings
148 A bit mask of units that you wish to specifically use board NVRAM
151 A bit mask of units that you wish to specifically to set into full
154 A bit mask of units that you wish to specifically to not set into
157 This should be the full 64 bit World Wide Node Name you would like
158 to use, overriding the value in NVRAM for the card.
160 This is a driver debug level- meaningful from 0 through 7.
162 This is a driver target mode debug level- meaningful from 0 through
174 driver was written by Matthew Jacob for NASA/Ames Research Center.
176 The driver currently ignores some NVRAM settings.
178 The driver currently doesn't do error recovery for timed out commands
181 Target mode support isn't completely debugged yet.
183 well for Fibre Channel, somewhat well for Qlogic 1040 cards, but
184 doesn't yet work for the other cards (due to last minute unannounced
185 changes in firmware interfaces).
187 Sometimes, when booting, the driver gets stuck waiting for the
188 Fibre Channel f/w to tell it that the loop port database is ready,
189 or waiting for a good loop to be seen (this does not yet support
190 booting without being connected to a fibre channel device).
192 unwedge the system, unplug and replug the fibre channel connection,
193 or otherwise cause a LIP (Loop Initialization Primitive sequence)-
194 this will kick the f/w into getting unstuck.
