327.Sh DESCRIPTION
328The
329.Nm
330utility is designed to provide a way for users to access and control the
331.Fx
332CAM subsystem.
333.Pp
334The
335.Nm
336utility
337can cause a loss of data and/or system crashes if used improperly.
338Even
339expert users are encouraged to exercise caution when using this command.
340Novice users should stay away from this utility.
341.Pp
342The
343.Nm
344utility has a number of primary functions, many of which support an optional
345device identifier.
346A device identifier can take one of three forms:
347.Bl -tag -width 14n
348.It deviceUNIT
349Specify a device name and unit number combination, like "da5" or "cd3".
350.It bus:target
351Specify a bus number and target id.
352The bus number can be determined from
353the output of
354.Dq camcontrol devlist .
355The lun defaults to 0.
356.It bus:target:lun
357Specify the bus, target and lun for a device.
358(e.g.\& 1:2:0)
359.El
360.Pp
361The device identifier, if it is specified,
362.Em must
363come immediately after the function name, and before any generic or
364function-specific arguments.
365Note that the
366.Fl n
367and
368.Fl u
369arguments described below will override any device name or unit number
370specified beforehand.
371The
372.Fl n
373and
374.Fl u
375arguments will
376.Em not
377override a specified bus:target or bus:target:lun, however.
378.Pp
379Most of the
380.Nm
381primary functions support these generic arguments:
382.Bl -tag -width 14n
383.It Fl C Ar count
384SCSI command retry count.
385In order for this to work, error recovery
386.Pq Fl E
387must be turned on.
388.It Fl E
389Instruct the kernel to perform generic SCSI error recovery for the given
390command.
391This is needed in order for the retry count
392.Pq Fl C
393to be honored.
394Other than retrying commands, the generic error recovery in
395the code will generally attempt to spin up drives that are not spinning.
396It may take some other actions, depending upon the sense code returned from
397the command.
398.It Fl n Ar dev_name
399Specify the device type to operate on, e.g.\& "da", "cd".
400.It Fl t Ar timeout
401SCSI command timeout in seconds.
402This overrides the default timeout for
403any given command.
404.It Fl u Ar unit_number
405Specify the device unit number, e.g.\& "1", "5".
406.It Fl v
407Be verbose, print out sense information for failed SCSI commands.
408.El
409.Pp
410Primary command functions:
411.Bl -tag -width periphlist
412.It Ic devlist
413List all physical devices (logical units) attached to the CAM subsystem.
414This also includes a list of peripheral drivers attached to each device.
415With the
416.Fl v
417argument, SCSI bus number, adapter name and unit numbers are printed as
418well.
419On the other hand, with the
420.Fl b
421argument, only the bus adapter, and unit information will be printed, and
422device information will be omitted.
423.It Ic periphlist
424List all peripheral drivers attached to a given physical device (logical
425unit).
426.It Ic tur
427Send the SCSI test unit ready (0x00) command to the given device.
428The
429.Nm
430utility will report whether the device is ready or not.
431.It Ic inquiry
432Send a SCSI inquiry command (0x12) to a device.
433By default,
434.Nm
435will print out the standard inquiry data, device serial number, and
436transfer rate information.
437The user can specify that only certain types of
438inquiry data be printed:
439.Bl -tag -width 4n
440.It Fl D
441Get the standard inquiry data.
442.It Fl S
443Print out the serial number.
444If this flag is the only one specified,
445.Nm
446will not print out "Serial Number" before the value returned by the drive.
447This is to aid in script writing.
448.It Fl R
449Print out transfer rate information.
450.El
451.It Ic identify
452Send a ATA identify command (0xec) to a device.
453.It Ic reportluns
454Send the SCSI REPORT LUNS (0xA0) command to the given device.
455By default,
456.Nm
457will print out the list of logical units (LUNs) supported by the target device.
458There are a couple of options to modify the output:
459.Bl -tag -width 14n
460.It Fl c
461Just print out a count of LUNs, not the actual LUN numbers.
462.It Fl l
463Just print out the LUNs, and do not print out the count.
464.It Fl r Ar reporttype
465Specify the type of report to request from the target:
466.Bl -tag -width 012345678
467.It default
468Return the default report.
469This is the
470.Nm
471default.
472Most targets will support this report if they support the REPORT LUNS
473command.
474.It wellknown
475Return only well known LUNs.
476.It all
477Return all available LUNs.
478.El
479.El
480.Pp
481.Nm
482will try to print out LUN numbers in a reasonable format.
483It can understand the peripheral, flat, LUN and extended LUN formats.
484.It Ic readcap
485Send the SCSI READ CAPACITY command to the given device and display
486the results.
487If the device is larger than 2TB, the SCSI READ CAPACITY (16) service
488action will be sent to obtain the full size of the device.
489By default,
490.Nm
491will print out the last logical block of the device, and the blocksize of
492the device in bytes.
493To modify the output format, use the following options:
494.Bl -tag -width 5n
495.It Fl b
496Just print out the blocksize, not the last block or device size.
497This cannot be used with
498.Fl N
499or
500.Fl s .
501.It Fl h
502Print out the device size in human readable (base 2, 1K == 1024) format.
503This implies
504.Fl N
505and cannot be used with
506.Fl q
507or
508.Fl b .
509.It Fl H
510Print out the device size in human readable (base 10, 1K == 1000) format.
511.It Fl N
512Print out the number of blocks in the device instead of the last logical
513block.
514.It Fl q
515Quiet, print out the numbers only (separated by a comma if
516.Fl b
517or
518.Fl s
519are not specified).
520.It Fl s
521Print out the last logical block or the size of the device only, and omit
522the blocksize.
523.El
524.Pp
525Note that this command only displays the information, it does not update
526the kernel data structures.
527Use the
528.Nm
529reprobe subcommand to do that.
530.It Ic start
531Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
532start bit set.
533.It Ic stop
534Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
535start bit cleared.
536.It Ic load
537Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
538start bit set and the load/eject bit set.
539.It Ic eject
540Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
541start bit cleared and the load/eject bit set.
542.It Ic rescan
543Tell the kernel to scan all busses in the system (with the
544.Ar all
545argument), the given bus (XPT_SCAN_BUS), or bus:target:lun
546(XPT_SCAN_LUN) for new devices or devices that have gone away.
547The user
548may specify a scan of all busses, a single bus, or a lun.
549Scanning all luns
550on a target is not supported.
551.It Ic reprobe
552Tell the kernel to refresh the information about the device and
553notify the upper layer,
554.Xr GEOM 4 .
555This includes sending the SCSI READ CAPACITY command and updating
556the disk size visible to the rest of the system.
557.It Ic reset
558Tell the kernel to reset all busses in the system (with the
559.Ar all
560argument) or the given bus (XPT_RESET_BUS) by issuing a SCSI bus
561reset for that bus, or to reset the given bus:target:lun
562(XPT_RESET_DEV), typically by issuing a BUS DEVICE RESET message after
563connecting to that device.
564Note that this can have a destructive impact
565on the system.
566.It Ic defects
567Send the
568.Tn SCSI
569READ DEFECT DATA (10) command (0x37) or the
570.Tn SCSI
571READ DEFECT DATA (12) command (0xB7) to the given device, and
572print out any combination of: the total number of defects, the primary
573defect list (PLIST), and the grown defect list (GLIST).
574.Bl -tag -width 11n
575.It Fl f Ar format
576Specify the requested format of the defect list.
577The format argument is
578required.
579Most drives support the physical sector format.
580Some drives
581support the logical block format.
582Many drives, if they do not support the
583requested format, return the data in an alternate format, along with sense
584information indicating that the requested data format is not supported.
585The
586.Nm
587utility
588attempts to detect this, and print out whatever format the drive returns.
589If the drive uses a non-standard sense code to report that it does not
590support the requested format,
591.Nm
592will probably see the error as a failure to complete the request.
593.Pp
594The format options are:
595.Bl -tag -width 9n
596.It block
597Print out the list as logical blocks.
598This is limited to 32-bit block sizes, and isn't supported by many modern
599drives.
600.It longblock
601Print out the list as logical blocks.
602This option uses a 64-bit block size.
603.It bfi
604Print out the list in bytes from index format.
605.It extbfi
606Print out the list in extended bytes from index format.
607The extended format allows for ranges of blocks to be printed.
608.It phys
609Print out the list in physical sector format.
610Most drives support this format.
611.It extphys
612Print out the list in extended physical sector format.
613The extended format allows for ranges of blocks to be printed.
614.El
615.It Fl G
616Print out the grown defect list.
617This is a list of bad blocks that have
618been remapped since the disk left the factory.
619.It Fl P
620Print out the primary defect list.
621This is the list of defects that were present in the factory.
622.It Fl q
623When printing status information with
624.Fl s ,
625only print the number of defects.
626.It Fl s
627Just print the number of defects, not the list of defects.
628.It Fl S Ar offset
629Specify the starting offset into the defect list.
630This implies using the
631.Tn SCSI
632READ DEFECT DATA (12) command, as the 10 byte version of the command
633doesn't support the address descriptor index field.
634Not all drives support the 12 byte command, and some drives that support
635the 12 byte command don't support the address descriptor index field.
636.It Fl X
637Print out defects in hexadecimal (base 16) form instead of base 10 form.
638.El
639.Pp
640If neither
641.Fl P
642nor
643.Fl G
644is specified,
645.Nm
646will print out the number of defects given in the READ DEFECT DATA header
647returned from the drive.
648Some drives will report 0 defects if neither the primary or grown defect
649lists are requested.
650.It Ic modepage
651Allows the user to display and optionally edit a SCSI mode page.
652The mode
653page formats are located in
654.Pa /usr/share/misc/scsi_modes .
655This can be overridden by specifying a different file in the
656.Ev SCSI_MODES
657environment variable.
658The
659.Ic modepage
660command takes several arguments:
661.Bl -tag -width 12n
662.It Fl d
663Disable block descriptors for mode sense.
664.It Fl b
665Displays mode page data in binary format.
666.It Fl e
667This flag allows the user to edit values in the mode page.
668The user may

704function requires the
705.Fl c
706argument to specify SCSI CDB or the
707.Fl a
708argument to specify ATA Command Block registers values.
709Other arguments are optional, depending on
710the command type.
711The command and data specification syntax is documented
712in

757function requires the
758.Fl r
759argument to specify the SMP request to be sent, and the
760.Fl R
761argument to specify the format of the SMP response.
762The syntax for the SMP request and response arguments is documented in
763.Xr cam_cdbparse 3 .
764.Pp
765Note that SAS adapters that support SMP passthrough (at least the currently
766known adapters) do not accept CRC bytes from the user in the request and do
767not pass CRC bytes back to the user in the response.
768Therefore users should not include the CRC bytes in the length of the
769request and not expect CRC bytes to be returned in the response.
770.Bl -tag -width 17n
771.It Fl r Ar len Ar fmt Op args
772This specifies the size of the SMP request, without the CRC bytes, and the

795.Bl -tag -width 8n
796.It Fl l
797Request the long response format only.
798Not all SMP targets support the long response format.
799This option causes
800.Nm
801to skip sending the initial report general request without the long bit set
802and only issue a report general request with the long bit set.
803.El
804.It Ic smppc
805Allows the user to issue the Serial Management Protocol (SMP) PHY Control
806command to a device.
807This function should be used with some caution, as it can render devices
808inaccessible, and could potentially cause data corruption as well.
809The

814Specify the PHY to operate on.
815This argument is required.
816.It Fl l

818Not all SMP targets support the long response format.
819For the PHY Control command, this currently only affects whether the
820request length is set to a value other than 0.
821.It Fl o Ar operation
822Specify a PHY control operation.
823Only one
824.Fl o

924.It Ic debug
925Turn on CAM debugging printfs in the kernel.
926This requires options CAMDEBUG
927in your kernel config file.
928WARNING: enabling debugging printfs currently
929causes an EXTREME number of kernel printfs.
930You may have difficulty
931turning off the debugging printfs once they start, since the kernel will be
932busy printing messages and unable to service other requests quickly.
933The

957.It bus Ns Op :target Ns Op :lun
958Turn on debugging for the given bus, target or lun.
959If the lun or target
960and lun are not specified, they are wildcarded.
961(i.e., just specifying a
962bus turns on debugging printfs for all devices on that bus.)
963.El
964.It Ic tags
965Show or set the number of "tagged openings" or simultaneous transactions
966we attempt to queue to a particular device.
967By default, the
968.Ic tags
969command, with no command-specific arguments (i.e., only generic arguments)
970prints out the "soft" maximum number of transactions that can be queued to
971the device in question.
972For more detailed information, use the
973.Fl v
974argument described below.
975.Bl -tag -width 7n
976.It Fl N Ar tags
977Set the number of tags for the given device.
978This must be between the
979minimum and maximum number set in the kernel quirk table.
980The default for
981most devices that support tagged queueing is a minimum of 2 and a maximum
982of 255.
983The minimum and maximum values for a given device may be
984determined by using the
985.Fl v
986switch.
987The meaning of the
988.Fl v
989switch for this
990.Nm
991subcommand is described below.
992.It Fl q
993Be quiet, and do not report the number of tags.
994This is generally used when
995setting the number of tags.
996.It Fl v
997The verbose flag has special functionality for the
998.Em tags
999argument.
1000It causes
1001.Nm
1002to print out the tagged queueing related fields of the XPT_GDEV_TYPE CCB:
1003.Bl -tag -width 13n
1004.It dev_openings
1005This is the amount of capacity for transactions queued to a given device.
1006.It dev_active
1007This is the number of transactions currently queued to a device.
1008.It devq_openings
1009This is the kernel queue space for transactions.
1010This count usually mirrors
1011dev_openings except during error recovery operations when
1012the device queue is frozen (device is not allowed to receive
1013commands), the number of dev_openings is reduced, or transaction
1014replay is occurring.
1015.It devq_queued
1016This is the number of transactions waiting in the kernel queue for capacity
1017on the device.
1018This number is usually zero unless error recovery is in
1019progress.
1020.It held
1021The held count is the number of CCBs held by peripheral drivers that have
1022either just been completed or are about to be released to the transport
1023layer for service by a device.
1024Held CCBs reserve capacity on a given
1025device.
1026.It mintags
1027This is the current "hard" minimum number of transactions that can be
1028queued to a device at once.
1029The
1030.Ar dev_openings
1031value above cannot go below this number.
1032The default value for
1033.Ar mintags
1034is 2, although it may be set higher or lower for various devices.
1035.It maxtags
1036This is the "hard" maximum number of transactions that can be queued to a
1037device at one time.
1038The
1039.Ar dev_openings
1040value cannot go above this number.
1041The default value for
1042.Ar maxtags
1043is 255, although it may be set higher or lower for various devices.
1044.El
1045.El
1046.It Ic negotiate
1047Show or negotiate various communication parameters.
1048Some controllers may
1049not support setting or changing some of these values.
1050For instance, the
1051Adaptec 174x controllers do not support changing a device's sync rate or
1052offset.
1053The
1054.Nm
1055utility
1056will not attempt to set the parameter if the controller indicates that it
1057does not support setting the parameter.
1058To find out what the controller
1059supports, use the
1060.Fl v
1061flag.
1062The meaning of the
1063.Fl v
1064flag for the
1065.Ic negotiate
1066command is described below.
1067Also, some controller drivers do not support
1068setting negotiation parameters, even if the underlying controller supports
1069negotiation changes.
1070Some controllers, such as the Advansys wide
1071controllers, support enabling and disabling synchronous negotiation for
1072a device, but do not support setting the synchronous negotiation rate.
1073.Bl -tag -width 17n
1074.It Fl a

1080.It Fl D Ar enable|disable
1081Enable or disable disconnection.
1082.It Fl M Ar mode
1083Set ATA mode.
1084.It Fl O Ar offset
1085Set the command delay offset.
1086.It Fl q
1087Be quiet, do not print anything.
1088This is generally useful when you want to
1089set a parameter, but do not want any status information.
1090.It Fl R Ar syncrate
1091Change the synchronization rate for a device.
1092The sync rate is a floating
1093point value specified in MHz.
1094So, for instance,
1095.Sq 20.000
1096is a legal value, as is
1097.Sq 20 .
1098.It Fl T Ar enable|disable
1099Enable or disable tagged queueing for a device.
1100.It Fl U
1101Show or set user negotiation settings.
1102The default is to show or set
1103current negotiation settings.
1104.It Fl v
1105The verbose switch has special meaning for the
1106.Ic negotiate
1107subcommand.
1108It causes
1109.Nm
1110to print out the contents of a Path Inquiry (XPT_PATH_INQ) CCB sent to the
1111controller driver.
1112.It Fl W Ar bus_width
1113Specify the bus width to negotiate with a device.
1114The bus width is
1115specified in bits.
1116The only useful values to specify are 8, 16, and 32
1117bits.
1118The controller must support the bus width in question in order for
1119the setting to take effect.
1120.El
1121.Pp
1122In general, sync rate and offset settings will not take effect for a
1123device until a command has been sent to the device.
1124The
1125.Fl a
1126switch above will automatically send a Test Unit Ready to the device so
1127negotiation parameters will take effect.
1128.It Ic format

1134.Pp
1135Low level formatting a disk will destroy ALL data on the disk.
1136Use
1137extreme caution when issuing this command.
1138Many users low-level format
1139disks that do not really need to be low-level formatted.
1140There are
1141relatively few scenarios that call for low-level formatting a disk.
1142One reason for
1143low-level formatting a disk is to initialize the disk after changing
1144its physical sector size.
1145Another reason for low-level formatting a disk
1146is to revive the disk if you are getting "medium format corrupted" errors
1147from the disk in response to read and write requests.
1148.Pp
1149Some disks take longer than others to format.
1150Users should specify a
1151timeout long enough to allow the format to complete.
1152The default format
1153timeout is 3 hours, which should be long enough for most disks.
1154Some hard
1155disks will complete a format operation in a very short period of time
1156(on the order of 5 minutes or less).
1157This is often because the drive
1158does not really support the FORMAT UNIT command -- it just accepts the
1159command, waits a few minutes and then returns it.
1160.Pp
1161The
1162.Sq format
1163subcommand takes several arguments that modify its default behavior.
1164The
1165.Fl q

1167.Fl y
1168arguments can be useful for scripts.
1169.Bl -tag -width 6n

1176argument, below.
1177.It Fl r
1178Run in
1179.Dq report only
1180mode.
1181This will report status on a format that is already running on the drive.
1182.It Fl w
1183Issue a non-immediate format command.
1184By default,
1185.Nm
1186issues the FORMAT UNIT command with the immediate bit set.
1187This tells the
1188device to immediately return the format command, before the format has
1189actually completed.
1190Then,
1191.Nm
1192gathers
1193.Tn SCSI
1194sense information from the device every second to determine how far along
1195in the format process it is.
1196If the
1197.Fl w
1198argument is specified,
1199.Nm
1200will issue a non-immediate format command, and will be unable to print any
1201information to let the user know what percentage of the disk has been
1202formatted.
1203.It Fl y
1204Do not ask any questions.
1205By default,
1206.Nm
1207will ask the user if he/she really wants to format the disk in question,
1208and also if the default format command timeout is acceptable.
1209The user
1210will not be asked about the timeout if a timeout is specified on the
1211command line.

2019size, and the attribute's readonly status.
2020If field_all is specified, specifying any other field options will not have
2021an effect.
2022.It field_none
2023Print none of the prefix fields, and only print out the attribute value.

2074.It Fl o Ar opcode
2075Request information on a specific opcode instead of the list of supported
2076commands.
2077If supported, the target will return a CDB-like structure that indicates
2078the opcode, service action (if any), and a mask of bits that are supported
2079in that CDB.
2080.It Fl s Ar service_action
2081For commands that support a service action, specify the service action to
2082query.
2083.It Fl N
2084If a service action is specified for a given opcode, and the device does
2085not support the given service action, the device should not return a

2087error, but rather indicate in the returned parameter data that the command
2088is not supported.
2089By default, if a service action is specified for an opcode, and service
2090actions are not supported for the opcode in question, the device will
2091return an error.

2367.Sh BUGS
2368The code that parses the generic command line arguments does not know that
2369some of the subcommands take multiple arguments.
2370So if, for instance, you
2371tried something like this:
2372.Bd -literal -offset indent
2373camcontrol cmd -n da -u 1 -c "00 00 00 00 00 v" 0x00 -v
2374.Ed
2375.Pp
2376The sense information from the test unit ready command would not get
2377printed out, since the first
2378.Xr getopt 3
2379call in
2380.Nm
2381bails out when it sees the second argument to
2382.Fl c
2383(0x00),
2384above.
2385Fixing this behavior would take some gross code, or changes to the
2386.Xr getopt 3
2387interface.
2388The best way to circumvent this problem is to always make sure
2389to specify generic
2390.Nm
2391arguments before any command-specific arguments.
