| | glm - GLM SCSI Host Bus Adapter Driver |
SYNOPSIS
| |
The glm Host Bus Adapter driver is a SCSA
compliant nexus driver that supports the LSI 53c810, LSI 53c875, LSI 53c876,
LSI 53C896 and LSI 53C1010 SCSI chips
It supports the standard functions provided by the SCSA interface. That is, it supports tagged and untagged queuing,
Narrow/Wide/Fast/Ultra SCSI/Ultra SCSI 2/Ultra SCSI 3, and auto request sense,
but it does not support linked commands.
Driver Configuration
| |
Configure the glm driver by defining properties in glm.conf. These properties override the global SCSI settings. glm supports these properties
which can be modified by the user: scsi-options, target<n>-scsi-options, scsi-reset-delay, scsi-tag-age-limit, scsi-watchdog-tick, and scsi-initiator-id.
target<n>-scsi-options
overrides the scsi-options property value for target<n>. <n>
can vary from decimal 0 to 15. glm supports these scsi-options: SCSI_OPTIONS_DR, SCSI_OPTIONS_SYNC, SCSI_OPTIONS_TAG, SCSI_OPTIONS_FAST, SCSI_OPTIONS_WIDE, SCSI_OPTIONS_FAST20, SCSI_OPTIONS_FAST40 and SCSI_OPTIONS_FAST80.
After periodic interval scsi-watchdog-tick, the glm driver searches through all current and disconnected commands
for timeouts.
scsi-tag-age-limit is the number of times that the glm driver attempts to allocate a particular tag ID that is currently in use after going through all tag IDs in a circular fashion. After finding the same
tag ID in use scsi-tag-age-limit times, no more commands will be submitted to this target until
all outstanding commands complete or timeout.
Refer to scsi_hba_attach(9F).

|
| | Example 1. Using the glm Configuration File
| |
Create a file called /kernel/drv/glm.conf and add
the following line:
This disables tagged queuing, Fast/Ultra SCSI and wide mode for all glm instances.
The following example disables an option for one specific glm (refer to driver.conf(4)
and pci(4) for more
details):
| |
name="glm" parent="/pci@1f,4000"
unit-address="3"
target1-scsi-options=0x58
scsi-options=0x178 scsi-initiator-id=6;
|
Note that the default
initiator ID in OBP is 7 and that the change to ID
6 will occur at attach time. It may be preferable to change the initiator ID in OBP.
The example above sets scsi-options for target 1
to 0x58 and all other targets on this SCSI bus to 0x178.
The physical pathname of the parent can be determined using the /devices tree or following the link of the logical device name:
| |
# ls -l /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 45 May 16 10:08 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 ->
../../devices/pci@1f,4000/scsi@3/sd@0,0:a,raw
|
In this case, like the example above, the parent is /pci@1f,4000 and the unit-address is the number bound to
the scsi@3 node.
To set scsi-options more specifically per target:
| |
target1-scsi-options=0x78;
device-type-scsi-options-list =
"SEAGATE ST32550W", "seagate-scsi-options" ;
seagate-scsi-options = 0x58;
scsi-options=0x3f8;
|
The above sets scsi-options
for target 1 to 0x78 and for all other targets on this SCSI bus to 0x3f8 except for one
specific disk type which will have scsi-options set to 0x58.
scsi-options specified per target ID have the highest precedence, followed by scsi-options per device type. Global scsi-options (for all glm instances) per bus have the lowest precedence.
The system needs to be rebooted before the specified scsi-options take effect.
|
Driver Capabilities
| |
The target driver needs to set capabilities in the glm
driver in order to enable some driver features. The target driver can query
and modify these capabilities: synchronous, tagged-qing, wide-xfer, auto-rqsense, qfull-retries, qfull-retry-interval. All other capabilities can only be queried.
By default, tagged-qing, auto-rqsense,
and wide-xfer capabilities are disabled, while disconnect, synchronous, and untagged-qing are enabled. These capabilities can only have binary values (0 or 1). The default value for qfull-retries is 10 and the default value for qfull-retry-interval is 100. The qfull-retries
capability is a uchar_t (0 to 255) while qfull-retry-interval is a ushort_t (0 to 65535).
The target driver needs to enable tagged-qing and wide-xfer explicitly. The untagged-qing capability
is always enabled and its value cannot be modified.
Whenever there is a conflict between the value of scsi-options and a capability, the value set in scsi-options
prevails. Only whom != 0 is supported in the scsi_ifsetcap(9F) call.
Refer to scsi_ifsetcap(9F)
and scsi_ifgetcap(9F)
for details.

The messages described below are some that may appear on the system
console, as well as being logged.
- Device is using a hilevel intr
- The device was configured with an interrupt level that cannot be used
with this glm driver. Check the PCI device.
- map setup failed
- Driver was unable
to map device registers; check for bad hardware. Driver did not attach to
device; SCSI devices will be inaccessible.

- The driver
was unable to load the SCRIPTS for the SCSI processor, check for bad hardware. Driver did
not attach to device; SCSI devices will be
inaccessible.
- cannot map configuration space.
- The driver was unable to map in the configuration registers. Check for bad
hardware. SCSI devices will be inaccessible.

The glm driver supports the following LSI chips:
- LSI 53C810, which supports Narrow, Fast SCSI mode. The maximum
SCSI bandwidth is 10 MB/sec.
- LSI 53C875, which supports Wide, Fast, and Ultra SCSI mode.
The maximum SCSI bandwidth is 40 MB/sec.
- LSI 53C896, which supports Wide, Fast and Ultra SCSI 2 mode.
The maximum LVD SCSI bandwidth is 80 MB/sec.
- LSI 53c1010, which supports wide, Fast and Ultra SCSI 3 mode.
The maximum LVD SCSI bandwidth is 160 MB/sec.
The glm driver exports properties indicating
per target the negotiated transfer speed (target<n>-sync-speed), whether wide bus is supported (target<n>-wide), for that particular
target (target<n>-scsi-options),
and whether tagged queuing has been enabled (target<n>-TQ). The sync-speed property
value is the data transfer rate in KB/sec. The target<n>-TQ and the target<n>-wide property have value 1 to indicate that the corresponding
capability is enabled, or 0 to indicate that the capability
is disabled for that target. Refer to prtconf(1M)
(verbose option) for viewing the glm properties.
