I2O_IOP_QUIESCE(9) Message-based devices I2O_IOP_QUIESCE(9)NAME
i2o_iop_quiesce - quiesce controller
SYNOPSIS
int i2o_iop_quiesce(struct i2o_controller * c);
ARGUMENTS
c
controller
DESCRIPTION
Quiesce an IOP. Causes IOP to make external operation quiescent (i2o 'READY' state). Internal operation of the IOP continues normally.
Returns 0 on success or negative error code on failure.

iop -- I2O adapter driver
SYNOPSIS
iop* at pci? dev ? function ?
iopsp* at iop? tid ?
ld* at iop? tid ?
dpti* at iop? tid 0
DESCRIPTION
The iop driver provides support for PCI I/O processors conforming to the I2O specification, revision 1.5 and above.
I2O is a specification that defines a software interface for communicating with a number of device types. In its basic form, I2O provides
the following:
o A vendor-neutral interface for communicating with an I/O processor (IOP) and a number of types of peripherals. In order to achieve this,
hardware-specific device drivers run on the IOP, and hardware-neutral device drivers run on the host.
o Reduced I/O overhead for the host. All communication between the host and the IOP is performed using a high level protocol. The speci-
fication also provides for batching of requests and replies between the host and IOP.
o An optional vendor-neutral configuration interface. Data from HTTP GET and POST operations can be channeled to individual devices, and
HTML pages returned.
Five types of devices are well defined by the specification. These are:
o Random block storage devices (disks).
o Sequential storage devices (tapes).
o LAN interfaces, including Ethernet, FDDI, and Token Ring.
o Bus ports (SCSI).
o SCSI peripherals.
The iop driver's role is to initialize and monitor the IOP, provide a conduit for messages and replies to and from devices, and provide other
common services for peripheral drivers, such as DMA mapping.
IOCTL INTERFACE
The following structures and constants are defined in dev/i2o/iopio.h. Note that the headers sys/types.h, sys/device.h and dev/i2o/i2o.h are
prerequisites and must therefore be included beforehand.
IOPIOCPT (struct ioppt)
Submit a message to the IOP and return the reply. Note that the return value of this ioctl is not affected by completion status as
indicated by the reply.
struct ioppt {
void *pt_msg; /* pointer to message buffer */
size_t pt_msglen; /* message buffer size in bytes */
void *pt_reply; /* pointer to reply buffer */
size_t pt_replylen; /* reply buffer size in bytes */
int pt_timo; /* completion timeout in ms */
int pt_nbufs; /* number of transfers */
struct ioppt_buf pt_bufs[IOP_MAX_MSG_XFERS]; /* transfers */
};
struct ioppt_buf {
void *ptb_data; /* pointer to buffer */
size_t ptb_datalen; /* buffer size in bytes */
int ptb_out; /* non-zero if transfer is to IOP */
};
The minimum timeout value that may be specified is 1000ms. All other values must not exceed the iop driver's operational limits.
The initiator context and transaction context fields in the message frame will be filled by the iop driver. As such, this ioctl may
not be used to send messages without a transaction context payload.
IOPIOCGSTATUS (struct iovec)
Request the latest available status record from the IOP. This special-case ioctl is provided as the I2O_EXEC_STATUS_GET message does
not post replies, and can therefore not be safely issued using the IOPIOCPT ioctl.
The following ioctls may block while attempting to acquire the iop driver's configuration lock, and may fail if the acquisition times out.
IOPIOCGLCT (struct iovec)
Retrieve the iop driver's copy of the logical configuration table. This copy of the LCT matches the current device configuration, but
is not necessarily the latest available version of the LCT.
IOPIOCRECONFIG
Request that the iop driver scan all bus ports, retrieve the latest version of the LCT, and attach or detach devices as necessary.
Note that higher-level reconfiguration tasks (such as logically re-scanning SCSI busses) will not be performed by this ioctl.
IOPIOCGTIDMAP (struct iovec)
Retrieve the TID to device map. This map indicates which targets are configured, and what the corresponding device name for each is.
Although at any given point it contains the same number of entries as the LCT, the number of entries should be determined using the
iov_len field from the returned iovec.
struct iop_tidmap {
u_short it_tid;
u_short it_flags;
char it_dvname[sizeof(((struct device *)NULL)->dv_xname)];
};
#define IT_CONFIGURED 0x02 /* target configured */
