Stop abusing xpt_periph in random plases that really have no periph related
to CCB, for example, bus scanning. NULL value is fine in such cases and it
is correctly logged in debug messages as "noperiph". If at some point we
need some real XPT periphs (alike to pmpX now), quite likely they will be
per-bus, and not a single global instance as xpt_periph now.
The isci driver is for the integrated SAS controller in the Intel C600
(Patsburg) chipset. Source files in sys/dev/isci directory are
FreeBSD-specific, and sys/dev/isci/scil subdirectory contains
an OS-agnostic library (SCIL) published by Intel to control the SAS
controller. This library is used primarily as-is in this driver, with
some post-processing to better integrate into the kernel build
environment.
isci.4 and a README in the sys/dev/isci directory contain a few
additional details.
This driver is only built for amd64 and i386 targets.
