.Nm tws
|
|
.Nd 3ware 9750 SATA+SAS 6Gb/s RAID controller card driver
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
To compile this driver into the kernel,
|
|
place the following lines in your
|
|
kernel configuration file:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Cd "device scbus"
|
|
.Cd "device tws"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Alternatively, to load the driver as a
|
|
module at boot time, place the following line in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
tws_load="YES"
|
|

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides support for LSI's 3ware 9750 SATA+SAS 6Gb/s RAID controller cards.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These controllers feature the LSISAS2108 6Gb/s SAS RAID-on-Chip (ROC)
|
|
and are available in 4- and 8-port configurations, supports RAID levels
|
|
0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and single disk, with 96 SATA and/or SAS hard drives and SSDs.
|

|
|
Tunables can be set at the
|
|
.Xr loader 8
|
|
prompt before booting the kernel or stored in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 .
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "hw.tws.use_32bit_sgls"
|
|
.It Va hw.tws.cam_depth
|
|
The maximium queued CAM SIM requests for one controller.
|
|
The default value is 256.
|
|
.It Va hw.tws.enable_msi
|
|
This tunable enables MSI support on the controller if set to a non-zero value.
|
|
The default value is 0.
|
|
.It Va hw.tws.queue_depth
|
|
The maximium queued requests for one controller.
|
|
.It Va hw.tws.use_32bit_sgls
|
|
Limit the driver to use only 32-bit SG elements regardless whether the operating
|
|
system is running in 64-bit mode.
|
|
The default value is 0.

.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
Whenever the driver encounters a command failure, it prints out an error code in
|
|
the format:
|
|
.Qq Li "ERROR: (<error source>: <error code>):" ,
|
|
followed by a text description of the error.
|
|
There are other error messages and warnings that the
