Simon L. B. Nielsen 69f9d7b13f Add a HARDWARE section which lists supported devices. The actual
device listings has been moved (and in some cases more or less
rewritten) from the DESCRIPTION section.

This will be used later for automatically generating device listings
in the Hardware Notes, by parsing the manual pages.

.Sh NAME
.Nm ahd
.Nd Adaptec PCI/PCI-X Ultra320 SCSI host adapter driver
.Sh SYNOPSIS
For one or more PCI/PCI-X cards:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
.Cd device pci
.Cd device ahd
.Ed
.Pp
To compile in debugging code:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
.Cd options AHD_DEBUG
.Cd options AHD_DEBUG_OPTS=<bitmask of options>
.Cd options AHD_REG_PRETTY_PRINT
.Ed
.Pp
To configure one or more controllers to assume the target role:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
.Cd options AHD_TMODE_ENABLE=<bitmask of units>
.Ed
.Pp
For one or more
.Tn SCSI
busses:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
.Cd device scbus
.Ed
.Sh DESCRIPTION
This driver provides access to the
.Tn SCSI
bus(es) connected to Adaptec
.Tn AIC79xx
host adapter chips.
.Pp
Driver features include support for narrow and wide busses,
fast, ultra, ultra2, ultra160, and ultra320 synchronous transfers,
packetized transfers, tagged queueing, 512 SCB's, and target mode.
.Pp
The
.Dv AHD_DEBUG_OPTS
option is used to control which diagnostic messages are printed to the
console when
.Dv AHD_DEBUG
is enabled.
Logically OR the following bits together:
.Bl -column -offset indent Value Function
.Em "Value Function"
0x0001 Show miscellaneous information
0x0002 Show sense data
0x0004 Show Serial EEPROM contents
0x0008 Show bus termination settings
0x0010 Show host memory usage
0x0020 Show SCSI protocol messages
0x0040 Show mode pointer of the chip register window
0x0080 Show selection timeouts
0x0100 Show FIFO usage messages
0x0200 Show Queue Full status
0x0400 Show SCB queue status
0x0800 Show inbound packet information
0x1000 Show S/G list information
0x2000 Enable extra diagnostic code in the firmware
.El
.Pp
The
.Dv AHD_REG_PRETTY_PRINT
option compiles in support for human-readable bit definitions for each register
that is printed by the debugging code.
However, it also bloats the compiled
size of the driver by approximately 215KB.
.Pp
Individual controllers may be configured to operate in the target role
through the
.Dv AHD_TMODE_ENABLE
configuration option.
The value assigned to this option should be a bitmap
of all units where target mode is desired.
For example, a value of 0x25 would enable target mode on units 0, 2, and 5.
Note that target mode is only supported for ultra160 speeds and below.
.Pp
Per target configuration performed in the
.Tn SCSI-Select
menu, accessible at boot,
is honored by this driver.
This includes synchronous/asynchronous transfers,
maximum synchronous negotiation rate,
wide transfers,
disconnection,
and the host adapter's
.Tn SCSI
ID.

.Sh BUGS
The current generation of 79xx chips do not support target mode in Ultra320
mode.
Target mode in general has not been well tested in this driver.
