31.Dt ISP 4
32.Os
33.Sh NAME
34.Nm isp
35.Nd Qlogic based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters
36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.Cd "device isp"
38.Pp
39For one or more SCSI busses:
40.Cd device scbus0
41.Sh DESCRIPTION
42This driver provides access to
43.Tn SCSI
44or
45.Tn FibreChannel
46devices.
47.Pp
48SCSI features include support for Ultra SCSI and wide mode transactions
49for
50.Tn SCSI ,
51Ultra2 LVD (for the ISP1080 and ISP1280), and Ultra3 LVD (for the
52ISP12160).
53.Pp
54Fibre Channel support uses FCP SCSI profile for
55.Tn FibreChannel .
56and utilizes Class 3 and Class 2 connections (Qlogic 2100 is Class
573 only, minor patches to the Qlogic 2200 to force Class 2 mode).
58Support is available for Public and Private loops, and for
59point-to-point connections (Qlogic 2200 only).  Command tagging is
60supported for all (in fact,
61.Tn FibreChannel
62requires tagging). Fabric support is enabled by default (but may
63be contingent upon the correct firmware being loaded).
64.Sh FIRMWARE
65Firmware is now available if the
66.Xr ispfw 4
67module is loaded during bootstrap (q.v.).
68.Pp
69It is very strongly recommended that you use the firmware available
70from
71.Xr ispfw 4
72as it is the most likely to have been tested with this driver.
73.Sh HARDWARE
74Supported cards include:
75.Pp

113.El
114.Sh CONFIGURATION OPTIONS
115.Pp
116Target mode support may be enabled with the
117.Pp
118.Cd options ISP_TARGET_MODE
119.Pp
120option.
121.Sh BOOT OPTIONS
122The following options are switchable by setting values in the loader
123configuration file (see the
124.Xr loader 8
125manual page). They are:
126.Pp
127.Bl -tag -width "isp_no_fwload" -compact
128.It isp_disable
129A bit mask of units to skip configuration for.
130.It isp_mem_map
131A bit mask of units to use PCI Memory space instead of I/O space
132access for.
133.It isp_io_map
134A bit mask of units to use PCI I/O space instead of Memory space
135access for.
136.It isp_no_nvram
137A bit mask of units that you wish to ignore board NVRAM settings
138for.
139.It isp_nvram
140A bit mask of units that you wish to specifically use board NVRAM
141settings for.
142.It isp_fcduplex
143A bit mask of units that you wish to specifically to set into full
144duplex mode.
145.It isp_no_fcduplex
146A bit mask of units that you wish to specifically to not set into
147full duplex mode.
148.It isp_wwn
149This should be the full 64 bit World Wide Node Name you would like
150to use, overriding the value in NVRAM for the card.
151.It isp_debug
152This is a driver debug level- meaningful from 0 through 7.
153.It isp_tdebug
154This is a driver target mode debug level- meaningful from 0 through
1555.
156.El
157.Sh BUGS
158The driver currently ignores some NVRAM settings.
159.Pp
160The driver currently doesn't do error recovery for timed out commands
161very gracefully.
162.Pp
163Target mode support isn't completely debugged yet. It works reasonably
164well for Fibre Channel, somewhat well for Qlogic 1040 cards, but
165doesn't yet work for the other cards (due to last minute unnanounced
166changes in firmware interfaces).
167.Pp
168Sometimes, when booting, the driver gets stuck waiting for the
169Fibre Channel f/w to tell it that the loop port database is ready,
170or waiting for a good loop to be seen (this does not yet support
171booting without being connected to a fibre channel device).  To
172unwedge the system, unplug and replug the fibre channel connection,
173or otherwise cause a LIP (Loop Initialization Primitive sequence)-
174this will kick the f/w into getting unstuck.
