When the device is opened using O_NDELAY, the first read or write to the device that happens after the open results in the label being read if the label is not currently valid. Once read, the label remains valid until the last close of the device. Except for reading the label, O_NDELAY has no impact on the driver. .SS "SPARC" .sp .LP The \fBsd\fR \fBSCSI\fR and \fBSCSI/ATAPI\fR driver supports embedded \fBSCSI\fR-2 and \fBCCS\fR-compatible \fBSCSI\fR disk and CD-ROM drives, \fBATAPI \fR 2.6 (SFF-8020i)-compliant CD-ROM drives, SFF-8090-compliant \fBSCSI/ATAPI\fR DVD-ROM drives, IOMEGA \fBSCSI/ATAPI\fR ZIP drives, \fBSCSI JAZ\fR drives, and USB mass storage devices (refer to \fBscsa2usb\fR(7D)). .sp .LP To determine the disk drive type, use the \fBSCSI/ATAPI\fR inquiry command and read the volume label stored on block 0 of the drive. (The volume label describes the disk geometry and partitioning and must be present for the disk to be mounted by the system.) A volume label is not required for removable, re-writable or read-only media. .SS "x86 Only" .sp .LP The \fBsd\fRdriver supports embedded \fBSCSI\fR-2 and \fBCCS\fR-compatible \fBSCSI \fRdisk and CD-ROM drives, \fBATAPI \fR2.6 (SFF-8020i)-compliant CD-ROM drives, SFF-8090-compliant \fBSCSI/ATAPI\fR DVD-ROM drives, IOMEGA \fBSCSI/ATAPI\fR ZIP drives\fB, and SCSI JAZ\fR drives. .sp .LP The x86 BIOS legacy requires a master boot record (MBR) and \fBfdisk\fR table in the first physical sector of the bootable media. If the x86 hard disk contains a Solaris disk label, it is located in the second 512-byte sector of the FDISK partition. .SH DEVICE SPECIAL FILES .sp .LP Block-files access the disk using normal buffering mechanism and are read-from and written-to without regard to physical disk records. A \fBraw\fR interface enables direct transmission between the disk and the user's read or write buffer. A single \fBread\fR or \fBwrite\fR call usually results in a single I/O operation, therefore raw I/O is more efficient when many bytes are transmitted. Block files names are found in \fB/dev/dsk\fR; raw file names are found in \fB/dev/rdsk\fR. .sp .LP I/O requests to the raw device must be aligned on a 512-byte (\fBDEV_BSIZE\fR) boundary and all I/O request lengths must be in multiples of 512 bytes. Requests that do not meet these requirements will trigger an \fBEINVAL\fR error. There are no alignment or length restrictions on I/O requests to the block device. .SH CD-ROM DRIVE SUPPORT .sp .LP A CD-ROM disk is single-sided and contains approximately 640 megabytes of data or 74 minutes of audio. When the CD-ROM is opened, the eject button is disabled to prevent manual removal of the disk until the last \fBclose()\fR is called. No volume label is required for a CD-ROM. The disk geometry and partitioning information are constant and never change. If the CD-ROM contains data recorded in a Solaris-aware file system format, it can be mounted using the appropriate Solaris file system support. .SH DVD-ROM DRIVE SUPPORT .sp .LP DVD-ROM media can be single or double-sided and can be recorded upon using a single or double layer structure. Double-layer media provides parallel or opposite track paths. A DVD-ROM can hold from between 4.5 Gbytes and 17 Gbytes of data, depending on the layer structure used for recording and if the DVD-ROM is single or double-sided. .sp .LP When the DVD-ROM is opened, the eject button is disabled to prevent the manual removal of a disk until the last \fBclose()\fR is called. No volume label is required for a DVD-ROM. If the DVD-ROM contains data recorded in a Solaris-aware file system format, it can be mounted using the appropriate Solaris file system support. .SH ZIP/JAZ DRIVE SUPPORT .sp .LP \fBZIP/JAZ\fR media provide varied data capacity points; a single \fBJAZ \fRdrive can store up to 2 GBytes of data, while a ZIP-250 can store up to 250MBytes of data. \fBZIP/JAZ\fR drives can be read-from or written-to using the appropriate drive. .sp .LP When a \fBZIP/JAZ\fR drive is opened, the eject button is disabled to prevent the manual removal of a disk until the last \fBclose()\fR is called. No volume label is required for a \fBZIP/JAZ\fR drive. If the \fBZIP/JAZ\fR drive contains data recorded in a Solaris-aware file system format, it can be mounted using the appropriate Solaris file system support. .SH DEVICE STATISTICS SUPPORT .sp .LP Each device maintains I/O statistics for the device and for partitions allocated for that device. For each device/partition, the driver accumulates reads, writes, bytes read, and bytes written. The driver also initiates hi-resolution time stamps at queue entry and exit points to enable monitoring of residence time and cumulative residence-length product for each queue. .sp .LP Not all device drivers make per-partition IO statistics available for reporting. \fBsd\fR and \fBssd\fR(7D) per-partition statistics are enabled by default but may disabled in their configuration files. .SH IOCTLS .sp .LP Refer to \fBdkio\fR(7I), and \fBcdio\fR(7I) .SS "ERRORS" .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBEACCES\fR\fR .ad .RS 10n Permission denied .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBEBUSY\fR\fR .ad .RS 10n The partition was opened exclusively by another thread .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBEFAULT\fR\fR .ad .RS 10n The argument features a bad address .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBEINVAL\fR\fR .ad .RS 10n Invalid argument .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBENOTTY\fR\fR .ad .RS 10n The device does not support the requested ioctl function .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBENXIO\fR\fR .ad .RS 10n During opening, the device did not exist.

Refer to notes for details on copy-protected DVD-ROM media. .RE .SH CONFIGURATION .sp .LP The \fBsd\fR driver can be configured by defining properties in the \fBsd.conf\fR file. The \fBsd\fR driver supports the following properties: .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBenable-partition-kstats\fR\fR .ad .RS 27n The default value is 1, which causes partition IO statistics to be maintained. Set this value to zero to prevent the driver from recording partition statistics. This slightly reduces the CPU overhead for IO, mimimizes the amount of \fBsar\fR(1) data collected and makes these statistics unavailable for reporting by \fBiostat\fR(1M) even though the \fB-p\fR/\fB-P\fR option is specified. Regardless of this setting, disk IO statistics are always maintained. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBqfull-retries\fR\fR .ad .RS 27n The supplied value is passed as the \fBqfull-retries\fR capability value of the HBA driver. See \fBscsi_ifsetcap\fR(9F) for details. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBqfull-retry-interval\fR\fR .ad .RS 27n The supplied value is passed as the \fBqfull-retry interval\fR capability value of the HBA driver. See \fBscsi_ifsetcap\fR(9F) for details. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBallow-bus-device-reset\fR\fR .ad .RS 27n The default value is 1, which allows resetting to occur. Set this value to \fB0\fR (zero) to prevent the \fBsd\fR driver from calling \fBscsi_reset\fR(9F) with a second argument of \fBRESET_TARGET\fR when in error-recovery mode. This \fBscsi_reset\fR(9F) call may prompt the HBA driver to send a SCSI Bus Device Reset message. The \fBscsi_reset\fR(9F) call with a second argument of \fBRESET_TARGET\fR may result from an explicit request via the \fBUSCSICMD\fR \fBioctl\fR. Some high-availability multi-initiator systems may wish to prohibit the Bus Device Reset message; to do this, set the \fBallow-bus-device-reset\fR property to \fB0\fR. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fBoptical-device-bind\fR .ad .RS 27n Controls the binding of the driver to non self-identifying SCSI target optical devices. (See \fBscsi\fR(4)). The default value is 1, which causes \fBsd\fR to bind to DTYPE_OPTICAL devices (as noted in \fBscsi\fR(4)). Setting this value to 0 prevents automatic binding. The default behavior for the SPARC-based \fBsd\fR driver prior to Solaris 9 was not to bind to optical devices. .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBpower-condition\fR\fR .ad .RS 27n Boolean type, when set to \fBFalse\fR, it indicates that the disk does not support \fBpower condition\fR field in th\fBe START STOP UNIT\fR command. .RE .sp .LP In addition to the above properties, some device-specific tunables can be configured in \fBsd.conf\fR using the \fBsd-config-list\fR global property. The value of this property is a list of duplets. The formal syntax is: .sp .in +2 .nf sd-config-list = [, ]* ; where := "" , "" and := [, ]*; = : The is the string that is returned by the target device on a SCSI inquiry command. The contains one or more tunables to apply to all target devices with the specified . Each is a : pair. Supported tunable names are: delay-busy: when busy, nsecs of delay before retry. retries-timeout: retries to perform on an IO timeout. .fi .in -2 .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fBmmc-gesn-polling\fR\fR .ad .RS 20n For optical drives compliant with \fBMMC-3\fR and supporting the \fBGET EVENT STATUS NOTIFICATION\fR command, this command is used for periodic media state polling, usually initiated by the \fBDKIOCSTATE\fR \fBdkio\fR(7I) ioctl. To disable the use of this command, set this boolean property to \fBfalse\fR. In that case, either the \fBTEST UNIT READY\fR or zero-length \fBWRITE(10)\fR command is used instead. .RE .SH EXAMPLES .sp .in +2 .nf The following is an example of a global sd-config-list property: sd-config-list = "SUN T4", "delay-busy:600, retries-timeout:6", "SUN StorEdge_3510", "retries-timeout:3"; .fi .in -2 .SH FILES .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB/kernel/drv/sd.conf\fR\fR .ad .RS 23n Driver configuration file .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB/dev/dsk/cntndnsn\fR\fR .ad .RS 23n Block files .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fB\fB/dev/rdsk/cntndnsn\fR\fR .ad .RS 23n Raw files .RE .sp .LP Where: .sp .ne 2 .na \fBcn\fR .ad .RS 6n controller n .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fBtn\fR .ad .RS 6n SCSI target id n (0-6) .RE .sp .ne 2 .na \fBdn\fR .ad .RS 6n SCSI LUN n (0-7 normally; some HBAs support LUNs to 15 or 32.
