isp

ISP(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						    ISP(4)

NAME

     isp -- Qlogic based SCSI and FibreChannel SCSI Host Adapters

SYNOPSIS

     isp* at pci? dev? function? (PCI)
     isp* at sbus? slot ? offset ? (SBus)
     scsibus* at isp?

DESCRIPTION

     This driver provides access to SCSI or FibreChannel devices.

     SCSI features include support for Ultra SCSI and wide mode transactions for SCSI, and LVD (for the ISP1080 and ISP1280),

     Fibre Channel support uses FCP SCSI profile for FibreChannel.  and uses Class 3 connections only.	Support is available for Public and Pri-
     vate loops.  Command tagging is supported for all (in fact, FibreChannel requires tagging).

CONFIGURATION

     An optional flags 0x80 appended to the above isp* declarations will disable the download of driver firmware, which means you use whatever
     firmware is running on the card.  If no firmware is running on the card, the driver cannot operate the card.

     An optional flags 0x40 appended to the above isp* declarations (can be OR'd in with the other config flags option) will keep the driver from
     looking at device or bus NVRAM settings (this is in case NVRAM is just wrong and you have the card in a platform where it is inconvenient to
     change NVRAM settings on the card).

HARDWARE

     Supported cards include:

	   ISP1000
		   SBus Fast Wide, Ultra Fast Wide cards, Single Ended or Differential cards.

	   PTI SBS440
		   Performance Technology ISP1000 variants.

	   ISP1020

	   PTI SBS450
		   Performance Technology ISP1040 variants.

	   Qlogic 1240
		   Qlogic 1240 Dual Bus Ultra Wide and Differential Ultra Wide PCI cards.

	   Qlogic 1080
		   Qlogic 1280 LVD Ultra2 Wide PCI cards.

	   Qlogic 1280
		   Qlogic 1280 Dual Bus LVD Ultra2 Wide PCI cards.

	   Qlogic 2100

AUTHORS

     The isp driver was written by Matthew Jacob for NASA/Ames Research Center.

BUGS

     The driver currently ignores some NVRAM settings.

     The driver currently doesn't do error recovery for timed out commands very gracefully.

     Sometimes, when booting, the driver gets stuck waiting for the Fibre Channel firmware to tell it that the loop port database is ready.  In
     this case you'll see an announcement that the loop state has a value of 0x1.  To unwedge the system, unplug and replug the fibre channel con-
     nection, or otherwise cause a LIP (Loop Initialization Primitive sequence) - this will kick the firmware into getting unstuck.
