callback Pointer to either NULL_FUNC or SLEEP_FUNC.
arg Always NULL.
kmflags Either KM_SLEEP or KM_NOSLEEP.
DESCRIPTION
The tran_setup_pkt() and tran_destroy_pkt() vectors in the scsi_hba_tran(9S) structure are alternatives to the tran_init_pkt() and
tran_destroy_pkt() entry points. They are initialized during the HBA driver's attach(9E) and they are used when a target driver calls
scsi_init_pkt(9F) and scsi_destroy_pkt(9F).
tran_setup_pkt()
The tran_setup_pkt() vector is the entry point into the HBA which is used to initialize HBA specific information in a scsi_pkt structure on
behalf of a SCSI target driver. All fields documented in scsi_pkt(9S) are initialized.
If the HBA driver chose not to preallocate memory for pkt_cdbp and/or pkt_scbp, it must allocate the requested memory at this time and
point pkt_cdbp and pkt_scbp to the allocated memory.
An HBA driver which provides a tran_setup_pkt entry point inspects the pkt_numcookies and pkt_cookies fields at tran_start time to set up
the transfer. If pkt_numcookies is zero, there are no DMA resources associated with this packet. If pkt_numcookies is not zero, it indi-
cates the number of DMA cookies that pkt_cookies points to.
The pkt_tgtlen field contains the length of the packet private area pointed to by pkt_private, allocated on behalf of the SCSI target
driver.
The pkt_scblen field contains the length of the SCSI status completion block pointed to by pkt_scbp. If the status length is greater than
or equal to sizeof (struct scsi_arq_status) and the auto_rqsensecapability has been set, automatic request sense (ARS) is enabled for this
packet. If the status lengthislessthansizeof (struct scsi_arq_status), automatic request sense should be disabled for this pkt if the HBA
driver is capable of disabling ARQ on a per-packet basis.
The pkt_cdblen field contains the length of the SCSI command descriptor block.
The callback argument indicates what the allocator routines should do when resources are not available:
NULL_FUNC Do not wait for resources. Return a NULL pointer.
SLEEP_FUNC Wait indefinitely for resources.
tran_teardown_pkt()
The tran_teardown_pkt() is the entry point into the HBA that must free all of the resources that were allocated to the scsi_pkt(9S) struc-
ture during tran_setup_pkt().
tran_pkt_constructor() tran_pkt_destructor()
When using tran_pkt_setup() and tran_pkt_teardown(), tran_pkt_constructor() and tran_pkt_destructor() are additional optional entry points
that perform the actions of a constructor and destructor. The constructor is called after the following fields in the scsi_pkt structure
have been initialized:
o pkt_address
o pkt_ha_private
o pkt_cdbp
o pkt_private
o pkt_scbp
o pkt_cdblen
o pkt_tgtlen
o pkt_scblen
Allocating and freeing a DMA handle are examples of something that could be done in the constructor and destructor. See kmem_cache_cre-
ate(9F) for additional restrictions on what actions can be performed in a constructor and destructor.
HBA drivers that implement tran_setup_pkt() must signal scsi_pkt(9S) completion by calling scsi_hba_pkt_comp(9F). Direct use of the
scsi_pkt pkt_comp field is not permitted and results in undefined behavior.
RETURN VALUES
tran_setup_pkt() must return zero on success, and -1 on failure.
