ports 116of many generic controllers. 117Depending on the controller, each PATA (IDE) 118port or each one or two SATA ports are 119represented to CAM as a separate bus with one or two targets. 120Most of the bus-management details are handled by the ATA/SATA-specific 121transport of CAM. 122Connected ATA disks are handled by the ATA protocol disk peripheral driver 123.Xr ada 4 . 124ATAPI devices are handled by the SCSI protocol peripheral drivers 125.Xr cd 4 , 126.Xr da 4 , 127.Xr sa 4 , 128etc. 129.Pp 130This driver supports ATA, and for the most of controllers, ATAPI devices. 131Command queuing and SATA port multipliers are not supported. 132Device hot-plug and SATA interface power management is supported only on 133some controllers. 134.Pp 135The 136.Nm 137driver can change the transfer mode when the system is up and running. 138See the 139.Cm negotiate 140subcommand of 141.Xr camcontrol 8 . 142.Pp 143The 144.Nm 145driver sets the maximum transfer mode supported by the hardware as default. 146However, the 147.Nm 148driver sometimes warns: 149.Dq Sy "DMA limited to UDMA33, non-ATA66 cable or device". 150This means that 151the 152.Nm 153driver has detected that the required 80 conductor cable is not present 154or could not be detected properly, 155or that one of the devices on the channel only accepts up 156to UDMA2/ATA33. 157The 158.Va hw.ata.ata_dma_check_80pin 159tunable can be set to 0 to disable this check. 160.Sh HARDWARE 161The currently supported ATA/SATA controller chips are: 162.Pp 163.Bl -tag -width "Silicon Image:"

and contain valid setup, DMA is 223also enabled, although the max mode is limited to UDMA33, as it is 224not known what the chipset can do and how to program it. 225.Sh DEPRECATION NOTICE 226The PC Card attachment of this driver is scheduled for removal prior to the release of 227.Fx 13.0 228.Sh NOTES 229Please remember that in order to use UDMA4/ATA66 and above modes you 230.Em must 231use 80 conductor cables. 232Please assure that ribbon cables are no longer than 45cm. 233In case of rounded ATA cables, the length depends on the 234quality of the cables. 235SATA cables can be up to 1m long according to the specification. 236External SATA cables can be 2m long and more, but not all controllers 237work well on long cables, especially at high speeds. 238.Sh SEE ALSO 239.Xr ada 4 , 240.Xr
