The isci driver is for the integrated SAS controller in the Intel C600 (Patsburg) chipset. Source files in sys/dev/isci directory are FreeBSD-specific, and sys/dev/isci/scil subdirectory contains an OS-agnostic library (SCIL) published by Intel to control the SAS controller. This library is used primarily as-is in this driver, with some post-processing to better integrate into the kernel build environment. isci.4 and a README in the sys/dev/isci directory contain a few additional details. This driver is only built for amd64 and i386 targets. Sponsored by: Intel Reviewed by: scottl Approved by: scottl

FreeBSD Driver for Intel(R) C600 SAS Controller
|
|
===============================================
|
|
|
|
This driver has been developed for use with FreeBSD, version 9.0 and later.
|
|
|
|
This driver uses an OS-agnostic abstraction layer library named SCIL that is
|
|
published by Intel specifically for the C600 SAS controller. The SAS
|
|
controller has no firmware, so the driver is extensive and using SCIL
|
|
minimizes the development and maintenance cost of the driver.
|
|
|
|
The FreeBSD implementation files are in the isci directory, and SCIL files
|
|
are in the isci/scil subdirectory. As Intel publishes new versions of SCIL
|
|
(to add features or fix bugs), the isci/scil subdirectory will be updated
|
|
appropriately.
