.Sh CONFIGURATION
|
|
To disable MSI interrupts for all
|
|
.Nm
|
|

|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
dev.mps.X.disable_msix=1
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To set the maximum number of DMA chains allocated for all adapters,
|
|
set the following variable in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
hw.mps.max_chains=NNNN
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To set the maximum number of DMA chains allocated for a specific adapter,
|
|
set the following variable in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
dev.mps.X.max_chains=NNNN
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This variable may also be viewed via
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
to see the maximum set for a given adapter.
|
|

|
|
The current number of free chain frames may be seen via the
|
|
dev.mps.X.chain_free
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable.
|
|

|
|
The lowest number of free chain frames may be seen via the
|
|
dev.mps.X.chain_free_lowwater
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The current number of active I/O commands is shown in the
|
|
dev.mps.X.io_cmds_active
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8
|
|
variable.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The maximum number of active I/O command seen since boot is shown in the

|
variable, where X is the adapter number, either in
|
|
.Xr loader.conf 5
|
|
or via
|
|
.Xr sysctl 8 .
|
|
The following bits have the described effects:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width 6n -offset indent

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver first appeared in
|
|
.Fx 9.0 .
|
|
.Sh AUTHORS
|
|
.An -nosplit
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver was originally written by
|
|
.An Scott Long Aq scottl@FreeBSD.org .
|
|
It has been improved and tested by LSI Logic Corporation.
|
|
This man page was written by
|
|
.An Ken Merry Aq ken@FreeBSD.org .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
This driver has a couple of known shortcomings:
|
|
.Bl -bullet -compact
|
|
.It
|
|
Not endian safe.
|
|
It only works on little endian machines (e.g. amd64 and i386).
|
|
.It
|
|
No userland utility available (e.g.
|
|
.Xr mptutil 8 ) .
|
|
.It
|
|
The driver probes devices sequentially.
|
|
If your system has a large number of devices, the probe will take a while.
