17 the name of your SCSI host adapter (the card inside your computer
18 that "speaks" the SCSI protocol, also called SCSI controller),
19 because you will be asked for it.
21 You also need to say Y here if you have a device which speaks
22 the SCSI protocol. Examples of this include the parallel port
23 version of the IOMEGA ZIP drive, USB storage devices, Fibre
24 Channel, and FireWire storage.

99 tristate "SCSI OnStream SC-x0 tape support"
102 The OnStream SC-x0 SCSI tape drives cannot be driven by the
103 standard st driver, but instead need this special osst driver and
104 use the /dev/osstX char device nodes (major 206). Via usb-storage,
105 you may be able to drive the USB-x0 and DI-x0 drives as well.
106 Note that there is also a second generation of OnStream
107 tape drives (ADR-x0) that supports the standard SCSI-2 commands for
108 tapes (QIC-157) and can be driven by the standard driver st.
109 For more information, you may have a look at the SCSI-HOWTO
110 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto> and
111 <file:Documentation/scsi/osst.txt> in the kernel source.
112 More info on the OnStream driver may be found on
113 <http://linux1.onstream.nl/test/>
114 Please also have a look at the standard st docu, as most of it
115 applies to osst as well.

138 This enables the usage of vendor specific SCSI commands. This is
139 required to support multisession CDs with old NEC/TOSHIBA cdrom
140 drives (and HP Writers). If you have such a drive and get the first
141 session only, try saying Y here; everybody else says N.
144 tristate "SCSI generic support"
147 If you want to use SCSI scanners, synthesizers or CD-writers or just
148 about anything having "SCSI" in its name other than hard disks,
149 CD-ROMs or tapes, say Y here. These won't be supported by the kernel
150 directly, so you need some additional software which knows how to
151 talk to these devices using the SCSI protocol:
153 For scanners, look at SANE (<http://www.mostang.com/sane/>). For CD
154 writer software look at Cdrtools
155 (<http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/cdrecord.html>)
156 and for burning a "disk at once": CDRDAO
157 (<http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/>). Cdparanoia is a high
158 quality digital reader of audio CDs (<http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/>).
159 For other devices, it's possible that you'll have to write the
160 driver software yourself. Please read the file
161 <file:Documentation/scsi/scsi-generic.txt> for more information.
163 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
164 <file:Documentation/scsi/scsi.txt>. The module will be called sg.
169 tristate "SCSI media changer support"
172 This is a driver for SCSI media changers. Most common devices are
173 tape libraries and MOD/CDROM jukeboxes. *Real* jukeboxes, you
174 don't need this for those tiny 6-slot cdrom changers. Media
175 changers are listed as "Type: Medium Changer" in /proc/scsi/scsi.
176 If you have such hardware and want to use it with linux, say Y
177 here. Check <file:Documentation/scsi/scsi-changer.txt> for details.
179 If you want to compile this as a module ( = code which can be
180 inserted in and removed from the running kernel whenever you want),
181 say M here and read <file:Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt> and
182 <file:Documentation/scsi/scsi.txt>. The module will be called ch.o.
185 config SCSI_ENCLOSURE
186 tristate "SCSI Enclosure Support"
187 depends on SCSI && ENCLOSURE_SERVICES
189 Enclosures are devices sitting on or in SCSI backplanes that
190 manage devices. If you have a disk cage, the chances are that
191 it has an enclosure device. Selecting this option will just allow
192 certain enclosure conditions to be reported and is not required.
194 config SCSI_MULTI_LUN
195 bool "Probe all LUNs on each SCSI device"
198 Some devices support more than one LUN (Logical Unit Number) in order
199 to allow access to several media, e.g. CD jukebox, USB card reader,
200 mobile phone in mass storage mode. This option forces the kernel to
201 probe for all LUNs by default. This setting can be overriden by
202 max_luns boot/module parameter. Note that this option does not affect
203 devices conforming to SCSI-3 or higher as they can explicitely report
204 their number of LUNs. It is safe to say Y here unless you have one of
205 those rare devices which reacts in an unexpected way when probed for
208 config SCSI_CONSTANTS
209 bool "Verbose SCSI error reporting (kernel size +=12K)"
212 The error messages regarding your SCSI hardware will be easier to
213 understand if you say Y here; it will enlarge your kernel by about
214 12 KB. If in doubt, say Y.
217 bool "SCSI logging facility"
220 This turns on a logging facility that can be used to debug a number
221 of SCSI related problems.
223 If you say Y here, no logging output will appear by default, but you
224 can enable logging by saying Y to "/proc file system support" and
225 "Sysctl support" below and executing the command
227 echo <bitmask> > /proc/sys/dev/scsi/logging_level
229 where <bitmask> is a four byte value representing the logging type
230 and logging level for each type of logging selected.
232 There are a number of logging types and you can find them in the
233 source at <file:drivers/scsi/scsi_logging.h>. The logging levels
234 are also described in that file and they determine the verbosity of
235 the logging for each logging type.
237 If you say N here, it may be harder to track down some types of SCSI
238 problems. If you say Y here your kernel will be somewhat larger, but
239 there should be no noticeable performance impact as long as you have
242 config SCSI_SCAN_ASYNC
243 bool "Asynchronous SCSI scanning"
246 The SCSI subsystem can probe for devices while the rest of the
247 system continues booting, and even probe devices on different
248 busses in parallel, leading to a significant speed-up.
250 If you have built SCSI as modules, enabling this option can
251 be a problem as the devices may not have been found by the
252 time your system expects them to have been. You can load the
253 scsi_wait_scan module to ensure that all scans have completed.
254 If you build your SCSI drivers into the kernel, then everything
255 will work fine if you say Y here.
257 You can override this choice by specifying "scsi_mod.scan=sync"
258 or async on the kernel's command line.
260 config SCSI_WAIT_SCAN
261 tristate # No prompt here, this is an invisible symbol.
265 # scsi_wait_scan is a loadable module which waits until all the async scans are
266 # complete. The idea is to use it in initrd/ initramfs scripts. You modprobe
267 # it after all the modprobes of the root SCSI drivers and it will wait until
268 # they have all finished scanning their buses before allowing the boot to
269 # proceed. (This method is not applicable if targets boot independently in
270 # parallel with the initiator, or with transports with non-deterministic target
271 # discovery schemes, or if a transport driver does not support scsi_wait_scan.)
273 # This symbol is not exposed as a prompt because little is to be gained by
274 # disabling it, whereas people who accidentally switch it off may wonder why
275 # their mkinitrd gets into trouble.

353 SCSI requests and responses over a TCP/IP network between the host
354 (the "initiator") and "targets". Architecturally, the iSCSI driver

692 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
693 module will be called eata.
695 config SCSI_EATA_TAGGED_QUEUE
696 bool "enable tagged command queueing"
699 This is a feature of SCSI-2 which improves performance: the host
700 adapter can send several SCSI commands to a device's queue even if
701 previous commands haven't finished yet.
702 This is equivalent to the "eata=tc:y" boot option.
704 config SCSI_EATA_LINKED_COMMANDS
705 bool "enable elevator sorting"
708 This option enables elevator sorting for all probed SCSI disks and
709 CD-ROMs. It definitely reduces the average seek distance when doing
710 random seeks, but this does not necessarily result in a noticeable
711 performance improvement: your mileage may vary...
712 This is equivalent to the "eata=lc:y" boot option.
714 config SCSI_EATA_MAX_TAGS
715 int "maximum number of queued commands"
719 This specifies how many SCSI commands can be maximally queued for
720 each probed SCSI device. You should reduce the default value of 16
721 only if you have disks with buggy or limited tagged command support.
722 Minimum is 2 and maximum is 62. This value is also the window size
723 used by the elevator sorting option above. The effective value used
724 by the driver for each probed SCSI device is reported at boot time.
725 This is equivalent to the "eata=mq:8" boot option.
728 tristate "EATA-PIO (old DPT PM2001, PM2012A) support"
729 depends on (ISA || EISA || PCI) && SCSI && BROKEN
731 This driver supports all EATA-PIO protocol compliant SCSI Host
732 Adapters like the DPT PM2001 and the PM2012A. EATA-DMA compliant
733 host adapters could also use this driver but are discouraged from
734 doing so, since this driver only supports hard disks and lacks
735 numerous features. You might want to have a look at the SCSI-HOWTO,
736 available from <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
738 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
739 module will be called eata_pio.
741 config SCSI_FUTURE_DOMAIN
742 tristate "Future Domain 16xx SCSI/AHA-2920A support"
743 depends on (ISA || PCI) && SCSI
744 select CHECK_SIGNATURE
746 This is support for Future Domain's 16-bit SCSI host adapters
747 (TMC-1660/1680, TMC-1650/1670, TMC-3260, TMC-1610M/MER/MEX) and
748 other adapters based on the Future Domain chipsets (Quantum
749 ISA-200S, ISA-250MG; Adaptec AHA-2920A; and at least one IBM board).
750 It is explained in section 3.7 of the SCSI-HOWTO, available from
751 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
753 NOTE: Newer Adaptec AHA-2920C boards use the Adaptec AIC-7850 chip
754 and should use the aic7xxx driver ("Adaptec AIC7xxx chipset SCSI
755 controller support"). This Future Domain driver works with the older
756 Adaptec AHA-2920A boards with a Future Domain chip on them.
758 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
759 module will be called fdomain.
762 tristate "Future Domain MCS-600/700 SCSI support"
763 depends on MCA_LEGACY && SCSI
765 This is support for Future Domain MCS 600/700 MCA SCSI adapters.
766 Some PS/2 computers are equipped with IBM Fast SCSI Adapter/A which
767 is identical to the MCS 700 and hence also supported by this driver.
768 This driver also supports the Reply SB16/SCSI card (the SCSI part).
769 It supports multiple adapters in the same system.
771 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
772 module will be called fd_mcs.
775 tristate "Intel/ICP (former GDT SCSI Disk Array) RAID Controller support"
776 depends on (ISA || EISA || PCI) && SCSI && ISA_DMA_API
778 Formerly called GDT SCSI Disk Array Controller Support.
780 This is a driver for RAID/SCSI Disk Array Controllers (EISA/ISA/PCI)
781 manufactured by Intel Corporation/ICP vortex GmbH. It is documented
782 in the kernel source in <file:drivers/scsi/gdth.c> and
783 <file:drivers/scsi/gdth.h>.
785 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
786 module will be called gdth.
788 config SCSI_GENERIC_NCR5380
789 tristate "Generic NCR5380/53c400 SCSI PIO support"
790 depends on ISA && SCSI
791 select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
793 This is a driver for the old NCR 53c80 series of SCSI controllers
794 on boards using PIO. Most boards such as the Trantor T130 fit this
795 category, along with a large number of ISA 8bit controllers shipped
796 for free with SCSI scanners. If you have a PAS16, T128 or DMX3191
797 you should select the specific driver for that card rather than
798 generic 5380 support.
800 It is explained in section 3.8 of the SCSI-HOWTO, available from
801 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. If it doesn't work out
802 of the box, you may have to change some settings in
803 <file:drivers/scsi/g_NCR5380.h>.
805 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
806 module will be called g_NCR5380.
808 config SCSI_GENERIC_NCR5380_MMIO
809 tristate "Generic NCR5380/53c400 SCSI MMIO support"
810 depends on ISA && SCSI
811 select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
813 This is a driver for the old NCR 53c80 series of SCSI controllers
814 on boards using memory mapped I/O.
815 It is explained in section 3.8 of the SCSI-HOWTO, available from
816 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. If it doesn't work out
817 of the box, you may have to change some settings in
818 <file:drivers/scsi/g_NCR5380.h>.
820 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
821 module will be called g_NCR5380_mmio.
823 config SCSI_GENERIC_NCR53C400
824 bool "Enable NCR53c400 extensions"
825 depends on SCSI_GENERIC_NCR5380
827 This enables certain optimizations for the NCR53c400 SCSI cards.
828 You might as well try it out. Note that this driver will only probe
829 for the Trantor T130B in its default configuration; you might have
830 to pass a command line option to the kernel at boot time if it does
831 not detect your card. See the file
832 <file:Documentation/scsi/g_NCR5380.txt> for details.
835 tristate "IBMMCA SCSI support"
836 depends on MCA && SCSI
838 This is support for the IBM SCSI adapter found in many of the PS/2
839 series computers. These machines have an MCA bus, so you need to
840 answer Y to "MCA support" as well and read
841 <file:Documentation/mca.txt>.
843 If the adapter isn't found during boot (a common problem for models
844 56, 57, 76, and 77) you'll need to use the 'ibmmcascsi=<pun>' kernel
845 option, where <pun> is the id of the SCSI subsystem (usually 7, but
846 if that doesn't work check your reference diskette). Owners of
847 model 95 with a LED-matrix-display can in addition activate some
848 activity info like under OS/2, but more informative, by setting
849 'ibmmcascsi=display' as an additional kernel parameter. Try "man
850 bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about how to
851 pass options to the kernel.
853 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
854 module will be called ibmmca.
856 config IBMMCA_SCSI_ORDER_STANDARD
857 bool "Standard SCSI-order"
858 depends on SCSI_IBMMCA
860 In the PC-world and in most modern SCSI-BIOS-setups, SCSI-hard disks
861 are assigned to the drive letters, starting with the lowest SCSI-id
862 (physical number -- pun) to be drive C:, as seen from DOS and
863 similar operating systems. When looking into papers describing the
864 ANSI-SCSI-standard, this assignment of drives appears to be wrong.
865 The SCSI-standard follows a hardware-hierarchy which says that id 7
866 has the highest priority and id 0 the lowest. Therefore, the host
867 adapters are still today everywhere placed as SCSI-id 7 by default.
868 In the SCSI-standard, the drive letters express the priority of the
869 disk. C: should be the hard disk, or a partition on it, with the
870 highest priority. This must therefore be the disk with the highest
871 SCSI-id (e.g. 6) and not the one with the lowest! IBM-BIOS kept the
872 original definition of the SCSI-standard as also industrial- and
873 process-control-machines, like VME-CPUs running under realtime-OSes
874 (e.g. LynxOS, OS9) do.
876 If you like to run Linux on your MCA-machine with the same
877 assignment of hard disks as seen from e.g. DOS or OS/2 on your
878 machine, which is in addition conformant to the SCSI-standard, you
879 must say Y here. This is also necessary for MCA-Linux users who want
880 to keep downward compatibility to older releases of the
881 IBM-MCA-SCSI-driver (older than driver-release 2.00 and older than
884 If you like to have the lowest SCSI-id assigned as drive C:, as
885 modern SCSI-BIOSes do, which does not conform to the standard, but
886 is widespread and common in the PC-world of today, you must say N
887 here. If unsure, say Y.
889 config IBMMCA_SCSI_DEV_RESET
890 bool "Reset SCSI-devices at boottime"
891 depends on SCSI_IBMMCA
893 By default, SCSI-devices are reset when the machine is powered on.
894 However, some devices exist, like special-control-devices,
895 SCSI-CNC-machines, SCSI-printer or scanners of older type, that do
896 not reset when switched on. If you say Y here, each device connected
897 to your SCSI-bus will be issued a reset-command after it has been
898 probed, while the kernel is booting. This may cause problems with
899 more modern devices, like hard disks, which do not appreciate these
900 reset commands, and can cause your system to hang. So say Y only if
901 you know that one of your older devices needs it; N is the safe
905 tristate "IBM ServeRAID support"
906 depends on PCI && SCSI
908 This is support for the IBM ServeRAID hardware RAID controllers.

950 module will be called ibmvfc.
952 config SCSI_IBMVFC_TRACE
953 bool "enable driver internal trace"
954 depends on SCSI_IBMVFC
957 If you say Y here, the driver will trace all commands issued
958 to the adapter. Performance impact is minimal. Trace can be
959 dumped using /sys/class/scsi_host/hostXX/trace.
962 tristate "Initio 9100U(W) support"
963 depends on PCI && SCSI
965 This is support for the Initio 91XXU(W) SCSI host adapter. Please

981 module will be called a100u2w.
984 tristate "IOMEGA parallel port (ppa - older drives)"
985 depends on SCSI && PARPORT_PC
987 This driver supports older versions of IOMEGA's parallel port ZIP
988 drive (a 100 MB removable media device).
990 Note that you can say N here if you have the SCSI version of the ZIP
991 drive: it will be supported automatically if you said Y to the
992 generic "SCSI disk support", above.
994 If you have the ZIP Plus drive or a more recent parallel port ZIP
995 drive (if the supplied cable with the drive is labeled "AutoDetect")
996 then you should say N here and Y to "IOMEGA parallel port (imm -
997 newer drives)", below.
999 For more information about this driver and how to use it you should
1000 read the file <file:Documentation/scsi/ppa.txt>. You should also read
1001 the SCSI-HOWTO, which is available from
1002 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. If you use this driver,
1003 you will still be able to use the parallel port for other tasks,
1004 such as a printer; it is safe to compile both drivers into the

1008 module will be called ppa.
1011 tristate "IOMEGA parallel port (imm - newer drives)"
1012 depends on SCSI && PARPORT_PC
1014 This driver supports newer versions of IOMEGA's parallel port ZIP
1015 drive (a 100 MB removable media device).
1017 Note that you can say N here if you have the SCSI version of the ZIP
1018 drive: it will be supported automatically if you said Y to the
1019 generic "SCSI disk support", above.
1021 If you have the ZIP Plus drive or a more recent parallel port ZIP
1022 drive (if the supplied cable with the drive is labeled "AutoDetect")
1023 then you should say Y here; if you have an older ZIP drive, say N
1024 here and Y to "IOMEGA Parallel Port (ppa - older drives)", above.
1026 For more information about this driver and how to use it you should
1027 read the file <file:Documentation/scsi/ppa.txt>. You should also read
1028 the SCSI-HOWTO, which is available from
1029 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. If you use this driver,
1030 you will still be able to use the parallel port for other tasks,

1037 config SCSI_IZIP_EPP16
1038 bool "ppa/imm option - Use slow (but safe) EPP-16"
1039 depends on SCSI_PPA || SCSI_IMM
1041 EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) is a standard for parallel ports which
1042 allows them to act as expansion buses that can handle up to 64
1045 Some parallel port chipsets are slower than their motherboard, and
1046 so we have to control the state of the chipset's FIFO queue every
1047 now and then to avoid data loss. This will be done if you say Y
1050 Generally, saying Y is the safe option and slows things down a bit.
1052 config SCSI_IZIP_SLOW_CTR
1053 bool "ppa/imm option - Assume slow parport control register"
1054 depends on SCSI_PPA || SCSI_IMM
1056 Some parallel ports are known to have excessive delays between
1057 changing the parallel port control register and good data being
1058 available on the parallel port data/status register. This option
1059 forces a small delay (1.0 usec to be exact) after changing the
1060 control register to let things settle out. Enabling this option may
1061 result in a big drop in performance but some very old parallel ports
1062 (found in 386 vintage machines) will not work properly.
1064 Generally, saying N is fine.
1066 config SCSI_NCR53C406A
1067 tristate "NCR53c406a SCSI support"
1068 depends on ISA && SCSI
1070 This is support for the NCR53c406a SCSI host adapter. For user
1071 configurable parameters, check out <file:drivers/scsi/NCR53c406a.c>

1079 tristate "NCR Dual 700 MCA SCSI support"
1080 depends on MCA && SCSI
1081 select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
1083 This is a driver for the MicroChannel Dual 700 card produced by
1084 NCR and commonly used in 345x/35xx/4100 class machines. It always
1085 tries to negotiate sync and uses tag command queueing.
1087 Unless you have an NCR manufactured machine, the chances are that
1088 you do not have this SCSI card, so say N.
1091 tristate "HP Lasi SCSI support for 53c700/710"
1092 depends on GSC && SCSI
1093 select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
1095 This is a driver for the SCSI controller in the Lasi chip found in
1096 many PA-RISC workstations & servers. If you do not know whether you
1097 have a Lasi chip, it is safe to say "Y" here.

1117 This driver supports Promise SuperTrak EX series storage controllers.
1119 Promise provides Linux RAID configuration utility for these
1120 controllers. Please visit <http://www.promise.com> to download.

1131 tristate "SYM53C8XX Version 2 SCSI support"
1132 depends on PCI && SCSI
1133 select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
1135 This driver supports the whole NCR53C8XX/SYM53C8XX family of
1136 PCI-SCSI controllers. It also supports the subset of LSI53C10XX
1137 Ultra-160 controllers that are based on the SYM53C8XX SCRIPTS
1138 language. It does not support LSI53C10XX Ultra-320 PCI-X SCSI
1139 controllers; you need to use the Fusion MPT driver for that.
1141 Please read <file:Documentation/scsi/sym53c8xx_2.txt> for more
1144 config SCSI_SYM53C8XX_DMA_ADDRESSING_MODE
1145 int "DMA addressing mode"
1146 depends on SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2
1149 This option only applies to PCI-SCSI chips that are PCI DAC
1150 capable (875A, 895A, 896, 1010-33, 1010-66, 1000).
1152 When set to 0, the driver will program the chip to only perform
1153 32-bit DMA. When set to 1, the chip will be able to perform DMA
1154 to addresses up to 1TB. When set to 2, the driver supports the
1155 full 64-bit DMA address range, but can only address 16 segments
1156 of 4 GB each. This limits the total addressable range to 64 GB.
1158 Most machines with less than 4GB of memory should use a setting
1159 of 0 for best performance. If your machine has 4GB of memory
1160 or more, you should set this option to 1 (the default).
1162 The still experimental value 2 (64 bit DMA addressing with 16
1163 x 4GB segments limitation) can be used on systems that require
1164 PCI address bits past bit 39 to be set for the addressing of
1165 memory using PCI DAC cycles.
1167 config SCSI_SYM53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS
1168 int "Default tagged command queue depth"
1169 depends on SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2
1172 This is the default value of the command queue depth the
1173 driver will announce to the generic SCSI layer for devices
1174 that support tagged command queueing. This value can be changed
1175 from the boot command line. This is a soft limit that cannot
1176 exceed CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_MAX_TAGS.
1178 config SCSI_SYM53C8XX_MAX_TAGS
1179 int "Maximum number of queued commands"
1180 depends on SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2
1183 This option allows you to specify the maximum number of commands
1184 that can be queued to any device, when tagged command queuing is
1185 possible. The driver supports up to 256 queued commands per device.
1186 This value is used as a compiled-in hard limit.
1188 config SCSI_SYM53C8XX_MMIO
1189 bool "Use memory mapped IO"
1190 depends on SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2
1193 Memory mapped IO is faster than Port IO. Most people should
1194 answer Y here, but some machines may have problems. If you have
1195 to answer N here, please report the problem to the maintainer.
1198 tristate "IBM Power Linux RAID adapter support"
1199 depends on PCI && SCSI && ATA
1202 This driver supports the IBM Power Linux family RAID adapters.
1203 This includes IBM pSeries 5712, 5703, 5709, and 570A, as well
1204 as IBM iSeries 5702, 5703, 5709, and 570A.

1216 bool "enable adapter dump support"
1220 If you say Y here, the driver will support adapter crash dump.
1221 If you enable this support, the iprdump daemon can be used
1222 to capture adapter failure analysis information.

1226 depends on GSC && SCSI
1227 select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
1229 The Zalon is a GSC/HSC bus interface chip that sits between the
1230 PA-RISC processor and the NCR 53c720 SCSI controller on C100,
1231 C110, J200, J210 and some D, K & R-class machines. It's also
1232 used on the add-in Bluefish, Barracuda & Shrike SCSI cards.
1233 Say Y here if you have one of these machines or cards.
1235 config SCSI_NCR_Q720
1236 tristate "NCR Quad 720 MCA SCSI support"
1237 depends on MCA && SCSI
1238 select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
1240 This is a driver for the MicroChannel Quad 720 card produced by
1241 NCR and commonly used in 345x/35xx/4100 class machines. It always
1242 tries to negotiate sync and uses tag command queueing.
1244 Unless you have an NCR manufactured machine, the chances are that
1245 you do not have this SCSI card, so say N.
1247 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS
1248 int "default tagged command queue depth"
1249 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1252 "Tagged command queuing" is a feature of SCSI-2 which improves
1253 performance: the host adapter can send several SCSI commands to a
1254 device's queue even if previous commands haven't finished yet.
1255 Because the device is intelligent, it can optimize its operations
1256 (like head positioning) based on its own request queue. Some SCSI
1257 devices don't implement this properly; if you want to disable this
1258 feature, enter 0 or 1 here (it doesn't matter which).
1260 The default value is 8 and should be supported by most hard disks.
1261 This value can be overridden from the boot command line using the
1262 'tags' option as follows (example):
1263 'ncr53c8xx=tags:4/t2t3q16/t0u2q10' will set default queue depth to
1264 4, set queue depth to 16 for target 2 and target 3 on controller 0
1265 and set queue depth to 10 for target 0 / lun 2 on controller 1.
1267 The normal answer therefore is to go with the default 8 and to use
1268 a boot command line option for devices that need to use a different
1269 command queue depth.
1271 There is no safe option other than using good SCSI devices.
1273 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_MAX_TAGS
1274 int "maximum number of queued commands"
1275 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1278 This option allows you to specify the maximum number of commands
1279 that can be queued to any device, when tagged command queuing is
1280 possible. The default value is 32. Minimum is 2, maximum is 64.
1281 Modern hard disks are able to support 64 tags and even more, but
1282 do not seem to be faster when more than 32 tags are being used.
1284 So, the normal answer here is to go with the default value 32 unless
1285 you are using very large hard disks with large cache (>= 1 MB) that
1286 are able to take advantage of more than 32 tagged commands.
1288 There is no safe option and the default answer is recommended.
1290 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_SYNC
1291 int "synchronous transfers frequency in MHz"
1292 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1295 The SCSI Parallel Interface-2 Standard defines 5 classes of transfer
1296 rates: FAST-5, FAST-10, FAST-20, FAST-40 and FAST-80. The numbers
1297 are respectively the maximum data transfer rates in mega-transfers
1298 per second for each class. For example, a FAST-20 Wide 16 device is
1299 able to transfer data at 20 million 16 bit packets per second for a
1300 total rate of 40 MB/s.
1302 You may specify 0 if you want to only use asynchronous data
1303 transfers. This is the safest and slowest option. Otherwise, specify
1304 a value between 5 and 80, depending on the capability of your SCSI
1305 controller. The higher the number, the faster the data transfer.
1306 Note that 80 should normally be ok since the driver decreases the
1307 value automatically according to the controller's capabilities.
1309 Your answer to this question is ignored for controllers with NVRAM,
1310 since the driver will get this information from the user set-up. It
1311 also can be overridden using a boot setup option, as follows
1312 (example): 'ncr53c8xx=sync:12' will allow the driver to negotiate
1313 for FAST-20 synchronous data transfer (20 mega-transfers per
1316 The normal answer therefore is not to go with the default but to
1317 select the maximum value 80 allowing the driver to use the maximum
1318 value supported by each controller. If this causes problems with
1319 your SCSI devices, you should come back and decrease the value.
1321 There is no safe option other than using good cabling, right
1322 terminations and SCSI conformant devices.
1324 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_NO_DISCONNECT
1325 bool "not allow targets to disconnect"
1326 depends on (SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720) && SCSI_NCR53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS=0
1328 This option is only provided for safety if you suspect some SCSI
1329 device of yours to not support properly the target-disconnect
1330 feature. In that case, you would say Y here. In general however, to
1331 not allow targets to disconnect is not reasonable if there is more
1332 than 1 device on a SCSI bus. The normal answer therefore is N.

1422 the sym53c416 is configured first using some sort of PnP
1423 configuration program (e.g. isapnp) or by a PnP aware BIOS. If you
1424 are using isapnp then you need to compile this driver as a module

1499 config SCSI_U14_34F_TAGGED_QUEUE
1500 bool "enable tagged command queueing"
1501 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1503 This is a feature of SCSI-2 which improves performance: the host
1504 adapter can send several SCSI commands to a device's queue even if
1505 previous commands haven't finished yet.
1506 This is equivalent to the "u14-34f=tc:y" boot option.

1509 bool "enable elevator sorting"
1510 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1512 This option enables elevator sorting for all probed SCSI disks and
1513 CD-ROMs. It definitely reduces the average seek distance when doing
1514 random seeks, but this does not necessarily result in a noticeable
1515 performance improvement: your mileage may vary...
1516 This is equivalent to the "u14-34f=lc:y" boot option.
1518 config SCSI_U14_34F_MAX_TAGS
1519 int "maximum number of queued commands"
1520 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1523 This specifies how many SCSI commands can be maximally queued for
1524 each probed SCSI device. You should reduce the default value of 8
1525 only if you have disks with buggy or limited tagged command support.
1526 Minimum is 2 and maximum is 14. This value is also the window size
1527 used by the elevator sorting option above. The effective value used
1528 by the driver for each probed SCSI device is reported at boot time.

1564 This is a host adapter simulator that can simulate multiple hosts
1565 each with multiple dummy SCSI devices (disks). It defaults to one
1566 host adapter with one dummy SCSI disk. Each dummy disk uses kernel
1567 RAM as storage (i.e. it is a ramdisk). To save space when multiple
1568 dummy disks are simulated, they share the same kernel RAM for
1569 their storage. See <http://www.torque.net/sg/sdebug.html> for more

1590 On Power Macintoshes (and clones) where the MESH SCSI bus adaptor
1591 drives a bus which is entirely internal to the machine (such as the
1592 7500, 7600, 8500, etc.), the MESH is capable of synchronous
1593 operation at up to 10 MB/s. On machines where the SCSI bus
1594 controlled by the MESH can have external devices connected, it is
1595 usually rated at 5 MB/s. 5 is a safe value here unless you know the
1596 MESH SCSI bus is internal only; in that case you can say 10. Say 0
