This is derived from the mps(4) driver, but it supports only the 12Gb
IT and IR hardware including the SAS 3004, SAS 3008 and SAS 3108.
Some notes about this driver:
o The 12Gb hardware can do "FastPath" I/O, and that capability is included in
this driver.
o WarpDrive functionality has been removed, since it isn't supported in
the 12Gb driver interface.
o The Scatter/Gather list handling code is significantly different between
the 6Gb and 12Gb hardware. The 12Gb boards support IEEE Scatter/Gather
lists.

1.3 of Intelб╝ Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O Architecture
Specification. The Extended Context and PASIDs from the rev. 2.2 are
not supported, but I am not aware of any released hardware which
implements them. Code does not use queued invalidation, see comments
for the reason, and does not provide interrupt remapping services.
Code implements the management of the guest address space per domain
and allows to establish and tear down arbitrary mappings, but not
partial unmapping. The superpages are created as needed, but not
promoted. Faults are recorded, fault records could be obtained
programmatically, and printed on the console.
Implement the busdma(9) using DMARs. This busdma backend avoids
bouncing and provides security against misbehaving hardware and driver
bad programming, preventing leaks and corruption of the memory by wild
DMA accesses.
By default, the implementation is compiled into amd64 GENERIC kernel
but disabled; to enable, set hw.dmar.enable=1 loader tunable. Code is
written to work on i386, but testing there was low priority, and
driver is not enabled in GENERIC. Even with the DMAR turned on,
individual devices could be directed to use the bounce busdma with the
hw.busdma.pci<domain>:<bus>:<device>:<function>.bounce=1 tunable. If
DMARs are capable of the pass-through translations, it is used,
otherwise, an identity-mapping page table is constructed.
The driver was tested on Xeon 5400/5500 chipset legacy machine,
Haswell desktop and E5 SandyBridge dual-socket boxes, with ahci(4),
ata(4), bce(4), ehci(4), mfi(4), uhci(4), xhci(4) devices. It also
works with em(4) and igb(4), but there some fixes are needed for
drivers, which are not committed yet. Intel GPUs do not work with
DMAR (yet).
Many thanks to John Baldwin, who explained me the newbus integration;

CTL is a disk and processor device emulation subsystem originally written
for Copan Systems under Linux starting in 2003. It has been shipping in
Copan (now SGI) products since 2005.
It was ported to FreeBSD in 2008, and thanks to an agreement between SGI
(who acquired Copan's assets in 2010) and Spectra Logic in 2010, CTL is
available under a BSD-style license. The intent behind the agreement was
that Spectra would work to get CTL into the FreeBSD tree.
Some CTL features:
- Disk and processor device emulation.
- Tagged queueing
- SCSI task attribute support (ordered, head of queue, simple tags)
- SCSI implicit command ordering support. (e.g. if a read follows a mode
select, the read will be blocked until the mode select completes.)
- Full task management support (abort, LUN reset, target reset, etc.)
- Support for multiple ports
- Support for multiple simultaneous initiators
- Support for multiple simultaneous backing stores
- Persistent reservation support
- Mode sense/select support
- Error injection support
- High Availability support (1)
- All I/O handled in-kernel, no userland context switch overhead.
(1) HA Support is just an API stub, and needs much more to be fully
functional.
ctl.c: The core of CTL. Command handlers and processing,
character driver, and HA support are here.
ctl.h: Basic function declarations and data structures.
ctl_backend.c,
ctl_backend.h: The basic CTL backend API.
ctl_backend_block.c,
ctl_backend_block.h: The block and file backend. This allows for using
a disk or a file as the backing store for a LUN.
Multiple threads are started to do I/O to the
backing device, primarily because the VFS API
requires that to get any concurrency.
ctl_backend_ramdisk.c: A "fake" ramdisk backend. It only allocates a
small amount of memory to act as a source and sink
for reads and writes from an initiator. Therefore
it cannot be used for any real data, but it can be
used to test for throughput. It can also be used
to test initiators' support for extremely large LUNs.
ctl_cmd_table.c: This is a table with all 256 possible SCSI opcodes,
and command handler functions defined for supported
opcodes.
ctl_debug.h: Debugging support.
ctl_error.c,
ctl_error.h: CTL-specific wrappers around the CAM sense building
functions.
ctl_frontend.c,
ctl_frontend.h: These files define the basic CTL frontend port API.
ctl_frontend_cam_sim.c: This is a CTL frontend port that is also a CAM SIM.
This frontend allows for using CTL without any
target-capable hardware. So any LUNs you create in
CTL are visible in CAM via this port.
ctl_frontend_internal.c,
ctl_frontend_internal.h:
This is a frontend port written for Copan to do
some system-specific tasks that required sending
commands into CTL from inside the kernel. This
isn't entirely relevant to FreeBSD in general,
but can perhaps be repurposed.
ctl_ha.h: This is a stubbed-out High Availability API. Much
more is needed for full HA support. See the
comments in the header and the description of what
is needed in the README.ctl.txt file for more
details.
ctl_io.h: This defines most of the core CTL I/O structures.
union ctl_io is conceptually very similar to CAM's
union ccb.
ctl_ioctl.h: This defines all ioctls available through the CTL
character device, and the data structures needed
for those ioctls.
ctl_mem_pool.c,
ctl_mem_pool.h: Generic memory pool implementation used by the
internal frontend.
ctl_private.h: Private data structres (e.g. CTL softc) and
function prototypes. This also includes the SCSI
vendor and product names used by CTL.
ctl_scsi_all.c,
ctl_scsi_all.h: CTL wrappers around CAM sense printing functions.
ctl_ser_table.c: Command serialization table. This defines what
happens when one type of command is followed by
another type of command.
ctl_util.c,
ctl_util.h: CTL utility functions, primarily designed to be
used from userland. See ctladm for the primary
consumer of these functions. These include CDB
building functions.
scsi_ctl.c: CAM target peripheral driver and CTL frontend port.
This is the path into CTL for commands from
target-capable hardware/SIMs.
README.ctl.txt: CTL code features, roadmap, to-do list.
usr.sbin/Makefile: Add ctladm.
ctladm/Makefile,
ctladm/ctladm.8,
ctladm/ctladm.c,
ctladm/ctladm.h,
ctladm/util.c: ctladm(8) is the CTL management utility.
It fills a role similar to camcontrol(8).
It allow configuring LUNs, issuing commands,
injecting errors and various other control
functions.
usr.bin/Makefile: Add ctlstat.
ctlstat/Makefile
ctlstat/ctlstat.8,
ctlstat/ctlstat.c: ctlstat(8) fills a role similar to iostat(8).
It reports I/O statistics for CTL.
sys/conf/files: Add CTL files.
sys/conf/NOTES: Add device ctl.
sys/cam/scsi_all.h: To conform to more recent specs, the inquiry CDB
length field is now 2 bytes long.
Add several mode page definitions for CTL.
