NAME

iopspI2O SCSI port driver

SYNOPSIS

iopsp* at iop? tid ?
scsibus* at iopsp?

DESCRIPTION

The iopsp driver provides support for I2O SCSI bus adapter ports and child peripherals.

IOPs present each child peripheral attached to a bus adapter port as an individual device. In order to present the appearance of a bus, the iopsp driver groups child peripherals by controlling port.

On IOPs containing a SCSI port and block or tape driver modules, some SCSI devices may not be directly accessible. For each inaccessible device, a message will be displayed during configuration. For example:

	iopsp0: target 0,0 (tid 70): in use by tid 47

Such devices will usually be indirectly accessible as block devices, either individually or as part of an array.

HISTORY

The iopsp driver first appeared in NetBSD 1.5.3.
November 8, 1999 NetBSD 7.0
