30.Dt ISP 4
31.Os
32.Sh NAME
33.Nm isp
34.Nd Qlogic based SPI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters
35.Sh SYNOPSIS
36To compile this driver into the kernel,
37place the following lines in your
38kernel configuration file:
39.Bd -ragged -offset indent
40.Cd "device scbus"
41.Cd "device isp"
42.Ed
43.Pp
44Alternatively, to load the driver as a
45module at boot time, place the following line in
46.Xr loader.conf 5 :
47.Bd -literal -offset indent
48isp_load="YES"
49.Ed
50.Sh DESCRIPTION
51This driver provides access to
52.Tn SPI
53or
54.Tn FibreChannel
55SCSI devices.
56.Pp
57SPI supports initiator mode for Ultra SCSI and wide mode transactions for
58.Tn SCSI ,
59Ultra2 LVD (1080, 1280), and Ultra3 LVD (10160, 12160).
60.Pp
61Fibre Channel supports initiator and target modes of FCP SCSI profile,
62utilizing Class 3 and Class 2 (2200 and later) connections.
63Support is available for Public and Private loops, Point-to-Point
64and Fabric connections.
65.Sh FIRMWARE
66Firmware loading is supported if the
67.Xr ispfw 4
68module is loaded.
69It is strongly recommended that you use the firmware available from
70.Xr ispfw 4
71as it is the most likely to have been tested with this driver.
72.Sh HARDWARE
73Cards supported by the
74.Nm

116.El
117.Sh CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
118Target mode support for Fibre Channel adapters may be enabled with the
119.Pp
120.Cd options ISP_TARGET_MODE
121.Pp
122option.
123.Sh BOOT OPTIONS
124The following options are switchable by setting values in
125.Pa /boot/device.hints .
126.Pp
127They are:
128.Bl -tag -width indent
129.It Va hint.isp.0.fwload_disable
130A hint value to disable loading of firmware
131.Xr ispfw 4 .
132.It Va hint.isp.0.ignore_nvram
133A hint value to ignore board NVRAM settings for.
134Otherwise use NVRAM settings.
135.It Va hint.isp.0.fullduplex
136A hint value to set full duplex mode.
137.It Va hint.isp.0.topology
138A hint value to select topology of connection.
139Supported values are:
140.Pp
141.Bl -tag -width ".Li lport-only" -compact
142.It Li lport
143Prefer loopback and fallback to point to point.
144.It Li nport
145Prefer point to point and fallback to loopback.
146.It Li lport-only
147Loopback only.
148.It Li nport-only
149Point to point only.
150.El
151.It Va hint.isp.0.portwwn
152This should be the full 64 bit World Wide Port Name you would like
153to use, overriding the value in NVRAM for the card.
154.It Va hint.isp.0.nodewwn
155This should be the full 64 bit World Wide Node Name you would like
156to use, overriding the value in NVRAM for the card.
157.It Va hint.isp.0.iid
158A hint to override or set the Initiator ID or Loop ID.
159For Fibre Channel
160cards in Local Loop topologies it is
161.Ar strongly
162recommended that you set this value to non-zero.
163.It Va hint.isp.0.role
164A hint to define default role for isp instance (0 -- none, 1 -- target,
1652 -- initiator, 3 -- both).
166.It Va hint.isp.0.debug
167A hint value for a driver debug level (see the file
168.Pa /usr/src/sys/dev/isp/ispvar.h
169for the values.
170.It Va hint.isp.0.vports
171A hint to create specified number of additional virtual ports.
172.El
173.Sh SYSCTL OPTIONS
174.Bl -tag -width indent
175.It Va dev.isp.N.loop_down_limit
176This value says how long to wait in seconds after loop has gone down before
177giving up and expiring all of the devices that were visible.
178The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
179A separate (nonadjustable) timeout is used when
180booting to not stop booting on lack of FC connectivity.
181.It Va dev.isp.N.gone_device_time
182This value says how long to wait for devices to reappear if they (temporarily)
183disappear due to loop or fabric events.
184While this timeout is running, I/O
185to those devices will simply be held.
186.It Va dev.isp.N.wwnn
187This is the readonly World Wide Node Name value for this port.
188.It Va dev.isp.N.wwpn
189This is the readonly World Wide Port Name value for this port.

198.Sh AUTHORS
199The
200.Nm
201driver was written by
202.An Matthew Jacob
203originally for NetBSD at NASA/Ames Research Center.
204Some later improvement was done by
205.An Alexander Motin Aq Mt mav@FreeBSD.org .
206.Sh BUGS
207The driver currently ignores some NVRAM settings.
208.Pp
209Fabric support for 2100 cards has been so problematic, and these cards are so
210old now that it is just not worth your time to try it.
