.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm ssc
|
|
.Nd The `super scsi' driver
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "pseudo-device ssc"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides an access point into the SCSI driver code that can
|
|
be used when no SCSI devices have previously been detected. This
|
|
is useful for systems that contain only external SCSI devices that
|
|
may be powered off at boot time.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Sq scsi user ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr su 4
|
|
pseudo-device is used by
|
|
.Nm ssc ,
|
|
and therefore must also be configured.
|
|
.Sh KERNEL CONFIGURATION
|
|
There are no configuration parameters for the ssc pseudo-device.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh IOCTLS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver has a single
|
|
.Dv SCIOCADDR
|
|
ioctl of it's own. This ioctl must be used after opening
|
|
.Pa /dev/ssc
|
|
and before issuing any other ioctl calls:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
.Fd #include <sys/scsiio.h>
|
|
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn ioctl "int fd" "SCIOCADDR" "struct scsi_addr *data"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ar Fd
|
|
refers to the descriptor returned by
|
|
.Xr open 2 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar data
|
|
must have the
|
|
.Ar scbus ,
|
|
.Ar target
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar lun
|
|
fields set as required. This ioctl may be used at will to change the
|
|
device to which subsequent ioctls affect.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
All other ioctls are passed directly to the
|
|
.Xr su 4
|
|
pseudo-device driver, using the Bus, Target and Lun that were set
|
|
with the last
|
|
.Dv SCIOCADDR
|
|
ioctl call.
|
|
.Sh FILES
|
|
.Bl -tag -width /dev/ssc -compact
|
|
.It Pa /dev/ssc
|
|
The device file used to access the
|
|
.Sq super scsi
|
|
driver.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
If any ioctl is attempted before issuing a
|
|
.Dv SCIOCADDR
|
|
ioctl,
|
|
.Dv ENXIO
|
|
is returned. Otherwise, the ioctl is passed directly to the
|
|
.Xr su 4
|
|
driver.

|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver originally appeared in FreeBSD 2.0.5.
