17.Sh NAME
18.Nm lmrc
19.Nd LSI MegaRAID SAS 3.0 Controller HBA driver
20.Sh DESCRIPTION
21The
22.Nm
23driver works with Broadcom MegaRAID SAS controllers of the Aero and Ventura
24generation, based on the following chipsets:
25.Bl -dash
26.It
27MegaRAID Tri-Mode SAS35xx
28.It
29MegaRAID Tri-Mode SAS34xx
30.It
31MegaRAID 12G SAS/PCIe SAS38xx
32.It
33MegaRAID 12G SAS/PCIe SAS39xx
34.El
35.Pp
36These controllers support SAS, SATA, and NVMe interfaces and expose connected
37devices either as RAID volumes or as JBOD, depending on the particular chipset
38and firmware configuration.
39.sp
40The driver supports the following capabilities:
41.Bl -dash
42.It
43Dynamic hot-plug
44.It
45Honors packet timeouts specified in
46.Xr scsi_pkt 9S
47.It
48Reset of target or logical unit via
49.Xr scsi_reset 9F
50.It
51Abort for individual commands via
52.Xr scsi_abort 9F
53.It
54Command queueing
55.Pq both tagged and untagged
56.El
57.Pp
58The
59.Nm
60driver is based on
61.Xr iport 9 ,
62and uses one iport for physical
63.Pq JBOD
64devices, and another iport for logical
65.Pq RAID
66devices.
67Depending on the controller and firmware, even physical
68.Pq JBOD
69devices may appear as
70logical
71.Pq RAID
72devices to the driver.

81.Sh BUGS
82The driver has not been tested with SATA or NVMe devices, and as such it is not
83known whether it will work properly when SATA or NVMe drives are connected.
