NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     iop - I2O (RAID) adapter driver

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     iop* at pci? dev ? function ?
     iopsp* at iop? tid ?
     ioprbs* at iop? tid ?
     scsibus* at iopsp?
     scsibus* at ioprbs?
     option I2OVERBOSE

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The iop driver provides support for PCI I/O processors  conforming to the
     I2O specification, revision 1.5 and above.

IOCTL INTERFACE    [Toc]    [Back]

     The  following  structures  and  constants  are  defined  in
<dev/i2o/iopio.h>.
     Note that  the  headers  <sys/types.h>,  <sys/device.h>  and
<dev/i2o/i2o.h>
     are prerequisites and must therefore be included beforehand.

     IOPIOCPT (struct ioppt)
           Submit a message to the  IOP  and  return  the  reply.
Note that the
           return  value of this ioctl is not affected by completion status as
           indicated by the reply.

           struct ioppt {
                   void    *pt_msg;        /* pointer to  message
buffer */
                   size_t  pt_msglen;      /* message buffer size
in bytes */
                   void    *pt_reply;      /*  pointer  to  reply
buffer */
                   size_t   pt_replylen;     /* reply buffer size
in bytes */
                   int     pt_timo;        /* completion  timeout
in ms */
                   int     pt_nbufs;       /* number of transfers
*/
                   struct  ioppt_buf  pt_bufs[IOP_MAX_MSG_XFERS];
/* transfers */
           };

           struct ioppt_buf {
                   void     *ptb_data;       /* pointer to buffer
*/
                   size_t   ptb_datalen;     /*  buffer  size  in
bytes */
                   int      ptb_out;        /* non-zero if transfer is to IOP */
           };

           The minimum timeout value that  may  be  specified  is
1000ms.  All
           other  values  must not exceed the iop driver's operational limits.

     IOPIOCGSTATUS (struct iovec)
           Request the latest available status  record  from  the
IOP.  This special-case
 ioctl is provided as the I2O_EXEC_STATUS_GET
message does
           not post replies, and can therefore not be safely  issued using the
           IOPIOCPT ioctl.

     The  following  ioctls may block while attempting to acquire
the iop driver's
 configuration lock, and may  fail  if  the  acquisition
times out.

     IOPIOCGLCT (struct iovec)
           Retrieve the iop driver's copy of the logical configuration table.
           This copy of the LCT matches the current  device  configuration, but
           is not necessarily the latest available version of the
LCT.

     IOPIOCRECONFIG
           Request that the iop driver scan all  bus  ports,  retrieve the latest
           version  of  the  LCT, and attach or detach devices as
necessary.
           Note that higher-level reconfiguration tasks (such  as
logically rescanning
  SCSI  busses)  will not be performed by this
ioctl.

     IOPIOCGTIDMAP (struct iovec)
           Retrieve the TID to device map.   This  map  indicates
which targets
           are configured, and what the corresponding device name
for each is.
           Although at any given point it contains the same  number of entries
           as the LCT, the number of entries should be determined
using the
           iov_len field from the returned iovec.

           struct iop_tidmap {
                   u_short it_tid;
                   u_short it_flags;
                   char       it_dvname[sizeof(((struct    device
*)NULL)->dv_xname)];
           };
           #define  IT_CONFIGURED    0x02    /* target configured
*/

HISTORY    [Toc]    [Back]

     The iop driver first appeared in NetBSD 1.6, OpenBSD support
was added in
     OpenBSD 3.0.
