SMP_DISCOVER(8) SMP_UTILS SMP_DISCOVER(8) NAME
smp_discover - invoke DISCOVER SMP function SYNOPSIS
smp_discover [--adn] [--brief] [--help] [--hex] [--ignore] [--interface=PARAMS] [--list] [--multiple] [--my] [--num=NUM] [--phy=ID] [--raw] [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--summary] [--verbose] [--version] [--zero] SMP_DEVICE[,N] DESCRIPTION
Sends one or more SAS Management Protocol (SMP) DISCOVER function requests to a SMP target and decodes or outputs the responses. The SMP target is identified by the SMP_DEVICE and the SAS_ADDR. Depending on the interface, the SAS_ADDR may be deduced from the SMP_DEVICE. The mpt interface uses SMP_DEVICE to identify a HBA (an SMP initiator) and needs the additional ,N to differentiate between HBAs if there are multiple present. If the --phy=ID option is not given then --summary is assumed. When --summary is given or assumed, this utility shows the disposition of each active expander phy in table form. One row is shown for each phy and is described in the SINGLE LINE PER PHY FORMAT section below. For this purpose disabled and errored expander phys are considered "active" and can be suppressed from the output by adding the --brief option. OPTIONS
Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well. -A, --adn causes the "attached device name" field to be output when the --multiple or --summary option is also given. See the section below on SINGLE LINE PER PHY FORMAT. Note the "attached device name" field was added is SAS-2. -b, --brief reduce the decoded response output. If used twice will exit if there is no attached device (after outputting that). When used with --multiple, unattached phys are not listed; when used twice, trims attached phys output. -h, --help output the usage message then exit. -H, --hex output the response (less the CRC field) in hexadecimal. -i, --ignore sets the Ignore Zone Group bit in the SMP Discover request. Expander phys hidden by zoning will appear as "phy vacant" unless this option is given. -I, --interface=PARAMS interface specific parameters. In this case "interface" refers to the path through the operating system to the SMP initiator. See the smp_utils man page for more information. -l, --list list attributes in "name=value" form, one entry per line. -m, --multiple loops over multiple phys within SMP target (typically an expander) and does a DISCOVER request and outputs a one line summary. Phy 0 is queried first, then phy 1, continuing until an error occurs. If --brief is given then there is no output for phys that indicate there is no attached device; when used twice additionally trims the output line of attached phys. See the section below on SINGLE LINE PER PHY FORMAT. -M, --my outputs my (this expander's) SAS address in hex (prefixed by "0x"). This is obtained from the DISCOVER response of phy id 0 (unless --phy=ID is given). The expander's SAS address is typically available even if a phy is not connected, "vacant" or disabled. This option overrides most other options (e.g. overrides --multiple and --summary options). -n, --num=NUM number of phys to fetch, starting at --phy=ID when the --multiple option is given. The default value is 0 which is interpreted as "the rest" (i.e. until a "phy does not exist" function result is received). This option is ignored in the absence of the --multiple option. -p, --phy=ID phy identifier. ID is a value between 0 and 254. If this option is not given then the --summary option is assumed. -r, --raw send the response (less the CRC field) to stdout in binary. All error messages are sent to stderr. -s, --sa=SAS_ADDR specifies the SAS address of the SMP target device. Typically this is an expander. This option may not be needed if the SMP_DEVICE has the target's SAS address within it. The SAS_ADDR is in decimal but most SAS addresses are shown in hexadecimal. To give a number in hexadecimal either prefix it with '0x' or put a trailing 'h' on it. -S, --summary output a multi line summary, with one line per active phy. Checks all phys (or less is --num=NUM is given), starting at phy 0 (unless --phy=ID is given). Equivalent to '--multiple --brief' ('-mb'). See the section below on SINGLE LINE PER PHY FORMAT. If the --phy=ID is not given then this option is assumed. -v, --verbose increase the verbosity of the output. Can be used multiple times -V, --version print the version string and then exit. -z, --zero zero the Allocated Response Length field in the request. This option also zeros the Request Length field in the request. This is required for strict SAS-1.1 compliance. However this option should not be given in SAS-2 and later; if it is given an abridged response may result. SINGLE LINE PER PHY FORMAT
The --summary option causes SMP DISCOVER responses to be compressed to a header followed by one line per phy. To save space SAS addresses are shown in hex without a '0x' prefix or 'h' suffix. The header line gives the SAS address of the SMP target itself and assumes it is an expander. Each line starts with " phy <n>:" where <n> is the phy identifier (and they are origin zero). That is followed by the routing attribute represented by a single letter which is either "D" for direct routing, "S" to subtractive routing or "T" for table routing. Then comes the negotiated physical link rate which is either "disabled", "reset problem" or "spinup hold". Other states are mapped to "attached". This includes enabled phys with nothing connected which appear as "attached:[0000000000000000:00]". Information shown between the brackets is for the attached device. Phys that are connected display something like: "attached:[5000c50000520a2a:01 " where the first number is the attached SAS address (in hex) and the second number is the attached device's phy identifier. If the attached device type is other than an end device then one of these abbreviations is output: "exp" (for expander), "fex" (for fanout expander) or "res" (for unknown attached device type). If a phy is flagged as "virtual" then the letter "V" appears next. Next are the protocols supported by the attached device which are shown as "i(<list>)" for initiator protocols and/or "t(<list>)" for tar- get protocols. The <list> is made up of "PORT_SEL", "SSP", "STP", "SMP" and "SATA" with "+" used as a separator. For example a SAS host adapter wi11 most likely appear as: "i(SSP+STP+SMP)". This completes the information about the attached phy, hence the closing right bracket. If appropriate, the negotiated physical link rate is shown in gigabits per second. Here is an example of a line for expander phy identifier 11 connected to a SATA target (or SATA "device" to use the t13.org term): phy 11:T:attached:[500605b000000afb:00 t(SATA)] 1.5 Gbps If the expander supports zoning (i.e. REPORT GENERAL response bit for 'zoning supported' is set) and a phy's zone group is other than zg 1 then the phy's zone group is shown (e.g. "ZG:2"). If the --adn option is given then after the attached SAS address and the attached device's phy identifier are output an extra field is inserted containing the "attached device name" field. For a SAS disk this should be its target device name (in NAA-5 format) and for a SATA disk its WWN (if provided, also in NAA-5 format). Also when the --adn option is given the phy speed and zone group are not output in order to keep the line length reasonable. NOTES
In SAS-2 and later both the DISCOVER and DISCOVER LIST functions are available. The DISCOVER LIST function should be favoured for several reasons: its response can hold up to 40 descriptors each describing the state of one expander phy. The vast majority of expander chips on the market support 36 phys or less so one DISCOVER LIST response will summarize the states of all its phys. With the DISCOVER function only one expander phy's state is returned in its response. Other advantages of the DISCOVER LIST function are its "phy filter" and "descriptor type" function request fields. EXAMPLES

The SMP DISCOVER function was introduced in SAS-1, with small additions in SAS-1.1 . There have been a large number of additions in SAS-2 . AUTHORS
