ATA_SCSI_TRANSLATE(9)					  libata SCSI translation/emulat				     ATA_SCSI_TRANSLATE(9)

NAME

       ata_scsi_translate - Translate then issue SCSI command to ATA device

SYNOPSIS

       int ata_scsi_translate(struct ata_device * dev, struct scsi_cmnd * cmd, void (*done) (struct scsi_cmnd *), ata_xlat_func_t xlat_func);

ARGUMENTS

       dev
	   ATA device to which the command is addressed

       cmd
	   SCSI command to execute

       done
	   SCSI command completion function

       xlat_func
	   Actor which translates cmd to an ATA taskfile

DESCRIPTION

       Our ->queuecommand function has decided that the SCSI command issued can be directly translated into an ATA command, rather than handled
       internally.

       This function sets up an ata_queued_cmd structure for the SCSI command, and sends that ata_queued_cmd to the hardware.

       The xlat_func argument (actor) returns 0 if ready to execute ATA command, else 1 to finish translation. If 1 is returned then cmd->result
       (and possibly cmd->sense_buffer) are assumed to be set reflecting an error condition or clean (early) termination.

LOCKING

       spin_lock_irqsave(host lock)

RETURNS

       0 on success, SCSI_ML_QUEUE_DEVICE_BUSY if the command needs to be deferred.

NAME

       scsi_satl - check SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) device support

SYNOPSIS

       scsi_satl [--help] [--log] [--quiet] [--verbose] DEVICE

DESCRIPTION

       This  Bourne shell script calls several SCSI commands on the given DEVICE that is assumed to be an ATA device behind a SCSI to ATA Transla-
       tion (SAT) layer (SATL). The results of each test and a pass/fail count are output.

OPTIONS

       Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.

       -h, --help
	      print out the usage message then exit.

       -L, --log
	      the output to stderr (from each SCSI command executed) is appended to a file called 'scsi_satl.err' in the  current  working  direc-
	      tory.

       -q, --quiet
	      the amount of output is reduced and typically only the pass/fail count is output.

       -v, --verbose
	      increase level or verbosity.

EXIT STATUS

       The  exit  status  of  this script is the number of "bad" errors found.	So an exit status of 0 means all mandatory SCSI commands worked as
       expected.
