.Sh NAME

.Nm pt

|
.Nd scsi processor type driver
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm device pt0 at scbus?
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr pt
|
|
driver provides support for a
|
|
SCSI processor type device. These are usually scanners and other
|
|
devices using the SCSI link as a communication interface with device
|
|
specific commands embedded in the data stream.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A scsi adapter must be separately configured into the system
|
|
before this driver can be used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This device only supports
|
|
.Xr read 2
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr write 2 ,
|
|
and the general scsi ioctl calls.
|
|
.Sh IOCTLS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver has no ioctls of it's own but rather acts as a medium for the
|
|
generic
|
|
.Xr scsi 4
|
|
ioctls. These are described in
|
|
.Em sys/scsiio.h.

|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
The
|
|
.Em "at scbus?"
|
|
is required in the config file for the configuration
|
|
system to know this is a SCSI device and generate the appropriate
|
|
tables.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The 0 in
|
|
.Em pt0
|
|
in the configuration is required.
|
|
This is a bug in
|
|
.Xr config 8 .

All
|
|
.Xr scsi 4

debug ioctls work on

devices.
