33.Sh NAME
34.Nm cd
35.Nd CDROM driver for the CAM SCSI subsystem
36.Sh DESCRIPTION
37The
38.Nm
39device driver provides a read only interface for CDROM drives (
40.Tn SCSI
41type 5)
42and WORM drives (
43.Tn SCSI
44type 4)
45that support CDROM type commands.
46Some drives don't behave as the driver expects.  See the section
47QUIRKS for info on possible flags.
48.Sh QUIRKS
49Each
50.Tn CD-ROM
51device can have different interpretations of the
52.Tn SCSI
53spec.  This can lead to drives requiring special handling in the driver.  The
54following is a list of quirks that the driver recognize.  See
55.Xr scsiconf 9
56for more information on how to add quirk entries.
57.Bl -tag -width CD_Q_BCD_TRACKS
58.It Dv CD_Q_NO_TOUCH
59This flag tell the driver not to probe the drive at attach time to see if
60there is a disk in the drive and find out what size it is.  This flag is
61currently unimplemented in the CAM
62.Nm cd
63driver.
64.It Dv CD_Q_BCD_TRACKS
65This flag is for broken drives that return the track numbers in packed BCD
66instead of straight decimal.  If the drive seems to skip tracks
67.Pq tracks 10-15 are skipped
68then you have a drive that is in need of this flag.
69.It Dv CD_Q_NO_CHANGER
70This flag tells the driver that the device in question is not a changer.
71This is only necessary for a CDROM device with multiple luns that are not a
72part of a changer.
73.It Dv CD_Q_CHANGER
74This flag tells the driver that the given device is a multi-lun changer.
75In general, the driver will figure this out automatically when it sees a
76LUN greater than 0.  Setting this flag only has the effect of telling the
77driver to run the initial read capacity command for LUN 0 of the changer
78through the changer scheduling code.
