64 
65 This document provides design information relating to the SCSI to ATA
66 Translation Implementation (SATI).  Driver developers are the primary
67 audience for this document.  The reader is expected to have an understanding
68 of SCSI (Simple Computer Storage Interface), ATA (Advanced Technology
69 Attachment), and SAT (SCSI-to-ATA Translation).
70 
71 Please refer to www.t10.org for specifications relating to SCSI and SAT.
72 Please refer to www.t13.org for specifications relating to ATA.
73 
74 @section overview Overview
75 
76 SATI provides environment agnostic functionality for translating SCSI
77 commands, data, and responses into ATA commands, data, and responses.  As
78 a result, in some instances the user must fill out callbacks to set data.
79 This ensures that user isn't forced to have to copy the data an additional
80 time due to memory access restrictions.
81 
82 SATI complies with the t10 SAT specification where possible.  In cases where
83 there are variances the design and implementation will make note.
84 Additionally, for parameters, pages, functionality, or commands for which
85 SATI is unable to translate, SATI will return sense data indicating
86 INVALID FIELD IN CDB.
87 
88 SATI has two primary entry points from which the user can enter:
89 - sati_translate_command()
90 - sati_translate_response() (this method performs data translation).
91 
92 Additionally, SATI provides a means through which the user can query to
93 determine the t10 specification revision with which SATI is compliant.  For
94 more information please refer to:
95 - sati_get_sat_compliance_version()
96 - sati_get_sat_compliance_version_revision()
97 
98 @section sati_definitions Definitions
99 
100 - scsi_io: The SCSI IO is considered to be the user's SCSI IO request object
101 (e.g. the windows driver IO request object and SRB).  It is passed back to
102 the user via callback methods to retrieve required SCSI information (e.g. CDB,
103 response IU address, etc.).  The SCSI IO is just a cookie and can represent
104 any value the caller desires, but the user must be able to utilize this value
105 when it is passed back through callback methods during translation.
106 - ata_io: The ATA IO is considered to be the user's ATA IO request object.  If
107 you are utilizing the SCI Framework, then the SCI Framework is the ATA IO.
108 The ATA IO is just a cookie and can represent any value the caller desires,
109 but the user must be able to utilize this value when it is passed back
110 through callback methods during translation.
111 
112 @section sati_use_cases Use Cases
113 
114 The SCSI Primary Command (SPC) set is comprised of commands that are valid
115 for all device types defined in SCSI.  Some of these commands have
116 sub-commands or parameter data defined in another specification (e.g. SBC, SAT).
117 These separate sub-commands or parameter data are captured in the SPC use
118 case diagram for simplicity.
119 
120 @note
121 - For simplicify the association between the actor and the use cases
122 has not been drawn, but is assumed.
123 - The use cases in green indicate the use case has been implemented in
124   source.

127 
128 The SCSI Block Command (SBC) set is comprised of commands that are valid for
129 block devices (e.g. disks).
130 
131 @image html Use_Case_Diagram__SATI__SATI_-_SBC.jpg "SCSI Block Command Translation Use Cases"
132 
133 The SCSI-to-ATA Translation (SAT) specification defines a few of it's own
134 commands, parameter data, and log pages.  This use case diagram, however, only
135 captures the SAT specific commands being translated.

143 @section sati_sequences Sequence Diagrams
144 
145 @note These sequence diagrams are currently a little out of date.  An
146       update is required.
147 
148 This sequence diagram simply depicts the high-level translation sequence to
149 be followed for command translations.

153 This sequence diagram simply depicts the high-level translation sequence to
154 be followed for reponse translations.
155

157 
158 This sequence diagram simply depicts the high-level translation sequence to
159 be followed for data translations.  Some SCSI commands such as READ CAPACITY,
160 INQUIRY, etc. have payload data associated with them.  As a result, it is
161 necessary for the ATA payload data to be translated to meet the expected SCSI
162 output.
