12 If you want to use a SCSI hard disk, SCSI tape drive, SCSI CD-ROM or
13 any other SCSI device under Linux, say Y and make sure that you know
14 the name of your SCSI host adapter (the card inside your computer
15 that "speaks" the SCSI protocol, also called SCSI controller),
16 because you will be asked for it.
18 You also need to say Y here if you have a device which speaks
19 the SCSI protocol. Examples of this include the parallel port
20 version of the IOMEGA ZIP drive, USB storage devices, Fibre
21 Channel, FireWire storage and the IDE-SCSI emulation driver.
23 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here and read
24 <file:Documentation/scsi/scsi.txt>.
25 The module will be called scsi_mod.
27 However, do not compile this as a module if your root file system
28 (the one containing the directory /) is located on a SCSI device.

32 depends on SCSI && PROC_FS
35 This option enables support for the various files in
36 /proc/scsi. In Linux 2.6 this has been superceeded by
37 files in sysfs but many legacy applications rely on this.

81 The OnStream SC-x0 SCSI tape drives can not be driven by the
82 standard st driver, but instead need this special osst driver and
83 use the /dev/osstX char device nodes (major 206). Via usb-storage
84 and ide-scsi, you may be able to drive the USB-x0 and DI-x0 drives
85 as well. Note that there is also a second generation of OnStream
86 tape drives (ADR-x0) that supports the standard SCSI-2 commands for
87 tapes (QIC-157) and can be driven by the standard driver st.
88 For more information, you may have a look at the SCSI-HOWTO
89 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto> and
90 <file:Documentation/scsi/osst.txt> in the kernel source.
91 More info on the OnStream driver may be found on

125 If you want to use SCSI scanners, synthesizers or CD-writers or just
126 about anything having "SCSI" in its name other than hard disks,
127 CD-ROMs or tapes, say Y here. These won't be supported by the kernel
128 directly, so you need some additional software which knows how to
129 talk to these devices using the SCSI protocol:
131 For scanners, look at SANE (<http://www.mostang.com/sane/>). For CD
132 writer software look at Cdrtools
133 (<http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/cdrecord.html>)
134 and for burning a "disk at once": CDRDAO
135 (<http://cdrdao.sourceforge.net/>). Cdparanoia is a high
136 quality digital reader of audio CDs (<http://www.xiph.org/paranoia/>).
137 For other devices, it's possible that you'll have to write the
138 driver software yourself. Please read the file
139 <file:Documentation/scsi/scsi-generic.txt> for more information.

150 This is a driver for SCSI media changers. Most common devices are
151 tape libraries and MOD/CDROM jukeboxes. *Real* jukeboxes, you
152 don't need this for those tiny 6-slot cdrom changers. Media
153 changers are listed as "Type: Medium Changer" in /proc/scsi/scsi.
154 If you have such hardware and want to use it with linux, say Y
155 here. Check <file:Documentation/scsi-changer.txt> for details.

168 bool "Probe all LUNs on each SCSI device"
171 If you have a SCSI device that supports more than one LUN (Logical
172 Unit Number), e.g. a CD jukebox, and only one LUN is detected, you
173 can say Y here to force the SCSI driver to probe for multiple LUNs.
174 A SCSI device with multiple LUNs acts logically like multiple SCSI
175 devices. The vast majority of SCSI devices have only one LUN, and
176 so most people can say N here. The max_luns boot/module parameter
177 allows to override this setting.
179 config SCSI_CONSTANTS
180 bool "Verbose SCSI error reporting (kernel size +=12K)"
183 The error messages regarding your SCSI hardware will be easier to
184 understand if you say Y here; it will enlarge your kernel by about
185 12 KB. If in doubt, say Y.
188 bool "SCSI logging facility"
191 This turns on a logging facility that can be used to debug a number
192 of SCSI related problems.
194 If you say Y here, no logging output will appear by default, but you
195 can enable logging by saying Y to "/proc file system support" and
196 "Sysctl support" below and executing the command
198 echo "scsi log token [level]" > /proc/scsi/scsi
200 at boot time after the /proc file system has been mounted.
202 There are a number of things that can be used for 'token' (you can
203 find them in the source: <file:drivers/scsi/scsi.c>), and this
204 allows you to select the types of information you want, and the
205 level allows you to select the level of verbosity.
207 If you say N here, it may be harder to track down some types of SCSI
208 problems. If you say Y here your kernel will be somewhat larger, but
209 there should be no noticeable performance impact as long as you have

754 depends on ISA && SCSI
756 This is a driver for the old NCR 53c80 series of SCSI controllers
757 on boards using PIO. Most boards such as the Trantor T130 fit this
758 category, along with a large number of ISA 8bit controllers shipped
759 for free with SCSI scanners. If you have a PAS16, T128 or DMX3191
760 you should select the specific driver for that card rather than
761 generic 5380 support.
763 It is explained in section 3.8 of the SCSI-HOWTO, available from
764 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. If it doesn't work out

789 This enables certain optimizations for the NCR53c400 SCSI cards.
790 You might as well try it out. Note that this driver will only probe
791 for the Trantor T130B in its default configuration; you might have
792 to pass a command line option to the kernel at boot time if it does
793 not detect your card. See the file

797 tristate "IBMMCA SCSI support"
798 depends on MCA_LEGACY && SCSI
800 This is support for the IBM SCSI adapter found in many of the PS/2
801 series computers. These machines have an MCA bus, so you need to
802 answer Y to "MCA support" as well and read
803 <file:Documentation/mca.txt>.
805 If the adapter isn't found during boot (a common problem for models
806 56, 57, 76, and 77) you'll need to use the 'ibmmcascsi=<pun>' kernel
807 option, where <pun> is the id of the SCSI subsystem (usually 7, but
808 if that doesn't work check your reference diskette). Owners of
809 model 95 with a LED-matrix-display can in addition activate some
810 activity info like under OS/2, but more informative, by setting
811 'ibmmcascsi=display' as an additional kernel parameter. Try "man

819 bool "Standard SCSI-order"
820 depends on SCSI_IBMMCA
822 In the PC-world and in most modern SCSI-BIOS-setups, SCSI-hard disks
823 are assigned to the drive letters, starting with the lowest SCSI-id
824 (physical number -- pun) to be drive C:, as seen from DOS and
825 similar operating systems. When looking into papers describing the
826 ANSI-SCSI-standard, this assignment of drives appears to be wrong.
827 The SCSI-standard follows a hardware-hierarchy which says that id 7
828 has the highest priority and id 0 the lowest. Therefore, the host
829 adapters are still today everywhere placed as SCSI-id 7 by default.
830 In the SCSI-standard, the drive letters express the priority of the
831 disk. C: should be the hard disk, or a partition on it, with the
832 highest priority. This must therefore be the disk with the highest
833 SCSI-id (e.g. 6) and not the one with the lowest! IBM-BIOS kept the
834 original definition of the SCSI-standard as also industrial- and
835 process-control-machines, like VME-CPUs running under realtime-OSes
836 (e.g. LynxOS, OS9) do.
838 If you like to run Linux on your MCA-machine with the same
839 assignment of hard disks as seen from e.g. DOS or OS/2 on your
840 machine, which is in addition conformant to the SCSI-standard, you
841 must say Y here. This is also necessary for MCA-Linux users who want
842 to keep downward compatibility to older releases of the
843 IBM-MCA-SCSI-driver (older than driver-release 2.00 and older than
846 If you like to have the lowest SCSI-id assigned as drive C:, as
847 modern SCSI-BIOSes do, which does not conform to the standard, but

855 By default, SCSI-devices are reset when the machine is powered on.
856 However, some devices exist, like special-control-devices,
857 SCSI-CNC-machines, SCSI-printer or scanners of older type, that do
858 not reset when switched on. If you say Y here, each device connected
859 to your SCSI-bus will be issued a reset-command after it has been
860 probed, while the kernel is booting. This may cause problems with
861 more modern devices, like hard disks, which do not appreciate these
862 reset commands, and can cause your system to hang. So say Y only if

983 Some parallel ports are known to have excessive delays between
984 changing the parallel port control register and good data being
985 available on the parallel port data/status register. This option
986 forces a small delay (1.0 usec to be exact) after changing the
987 control register to let things settle out. Enabling this option may
988 result in a big drop in performance but some very old parallel ports

1051 capable (875A, 895A, 896, 1010-33, 1010-66, 1000).
1053 When set to 0, the driver will program the chip to only perform
1054 32-bit DMA. When set to 1, the chip will be able to perform DMA
1055 to addresses up to 1TB. When set to 2, the driver supports the
1056 full 64-bit DMA address range, but can only address 16 segments
1057 of 4 GB each. This limits the total addressable range to 64 GB.
1059 Most machines with less than 4GB of memory should use a setting
1060 of 0 for best performance. If your machine has 4GB of memory
1061 or more, you should set this option to 1 (the default).
1063 The still experimental value 2 (64 bit DMA addressing with 16
1064 x 4GB segments limitation) can be used on systems that require
1065 PCI address bits past bit 39 to be set for the addressing of

1073 This is the default value of the command queue depth the
1074 driver will announce to the generic SCSI layer for devices
1075 that support tagged command queueing. This value can be changed
1076 from the boot command line. This is a soft limit that cannot

1084 This option allows you to specify the maximum number of commands
1085 that can be queued to any device, when tagged command queuing is
1086 possible. The driver supports up to 256 queued commands per device.
1087 This value is used as a compiled-in hard limit.
1089 config SCSI_SYM53C8XX_IOMAPPED

1138 This is a driver for the MicroChannel Quad 720 card produced by
1139 NCR and commonly used in 345x/35xx/4100 class machines. It always

1143 you do not have this SCSI card, so say N.
1145 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS
1146 int " default tagged command queue depth"
1147 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1150 "Tagged command queuing" is a feature of SCSI-2 which improves
1151 performance: the host adapter can send several SCSI commands to a
1152 device's queue even if previous commands haven't finished yet.
1153 Because the device is intelligent, it can optimize its operations
1154 (like head positioning) based on its own request queue. Some SCSI
1155 devices don't implement this properly; if you want to disable this
1156 feature, enter 0 or 1 here (it doesn't matter which).
1158 The default value is 8 and should be supported by most hard disks.
1159 This value can be overridden from the boot command line using the
1160 'tags' option as follows (example):
1161 'ncr53c8xx=tags:4/t2t3q16/t0u2q10' will set default queue depth to
1162 4, set queue depth to 16 for target 2 and target 3 on controller 0
1163 and set queue depth to 10 for target 0 / lun 2 on controller 1.
1165 The normal answer therefore is to go with the default 8 and to use
1166 a boot command line option for devices that need to use a different
1167 command queue depth.
1169 There is no safe option other than using good SCSI devices.
1171 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_MAX_TAGS
1172 int " maximum number of queued commands"
1173 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1176 This option allows you to specify the maximum number of commands
1177 that can be queued to any device, when tagged command queuing is
1178 possible. The default value is 32. Minimum is 2, maximum is 64.
1179 Modern hard disks are able to support 64 tags and even more, but
1180 do not seem to be faster when more than 32 tags are being used.
1182 So, the normal answer here is to go with the default value 32 unless
1183 you are using very large hard disks with large cache (>= 1 MB) that
1184 are able to take advantage of more than 32 tagged commands.
1186 There is no safe option and the default answer is recommended.
1188 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_SYNC
1189 int " synchronous transfers frequency in MHz"
1190 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1193 The SCSI Parallel Interface-2 Standard defines 5 classes of transfer
1194 rates: FAST-5, FAST-10, FAST-20, FAST-40 and FAST-80. The numbers
1195 are respectively the maximum data transfer rates in mega-transfers
1196 per second for each class. For example, a FAST-20 Wide 16 device is
1197 able to transfer data at 20 million 16 bit packets per second for a
1198 total rate of 40 MB/s.
1200 You may specify 0 if you want to only use asynchronous data
1201 transfers. This is the safest and slowest option. Otherwise, specify
1202 a value between 5 and 80, depending on the capability of your SCSI
1203 controller. The higher the number, the faster the data transfer.
1204 Note that 80 should normally be ok since the driver decreases the
1205 value automatically according to the controller's capabilities.
1207 Your answer to this question is ignored for controllers with NVRAM,
1208 since the driver will get this information from the user set-up. It
1209 also can be overridden using a boot setup option, as follows
1210 (example): 'ncr53c8xx=sync:12' will allow the driver to negotiate
1211 for FAST-20 synchronous data transfer (20 mega-transfers per
1214 The normal answer therefore is not to go with the default but to
1215 select the maximum value 80 allowing the driver to use the maximum
1216 value supported by each controller. If this causes problems with
1217 your SCSI devices, you should come back and decrease the value.
1219 There is no safe option other than using good cabling, right
1220 terminations and SCSI conformant devices.
1222 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_PROFILE
1223 bool " enable profiling"
1224 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1226 This option allows you to enable profiling information gathering.
1227 These statistics are not very accurate due to the low frequency
1228 of the kernel clock (100 Hz on i386) and have performance impact
1229 on systems that use very fast devices.
1231 The normal answer therefore is N.
1233 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_NO_DISCONNECT
1234 bool " not allow targets to disconnect"
1235 depends on (SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720) && SCSI_NCR53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS=0
1237 This option is only provided for safety if you suspect some SCSI
1238 device of yours to not support properly the target-disconnect
1239 feature. In that case, you would say Y here. In general however, to
1240 not allow targets to disconnect is not reasonable if there is more
1241 than 1 device on a SCSI bus. The normal answer therefore is N.

1283 FastSCSI! cards as well as any other card based on the FASXX chip
1284 (including the Control Concepts SCSI/IDE/SIO/PIO/FDC cards).
1286 This driver does NOT support the PCI versions of these cards. The
1287 PCI versions are supported by the Qlogic ISP driver ("Qlogic ISP
1288 SCSI support"), below.
1290 Information about this driver is contained in

1378 This is support for the sym53c416 SCSI host adapter, the SCSI
1379 adapter that comes with some HP scanners. This driver requires that
1380 the sym53c416 is configured first using some sort of PnP
1381 configuration program (e.g. isapnp) or by a PnP aware BIOS. If you
1382 are using isapnp then you need to compile this driver as a module
1383 and then load it using insmod after isapnp has run. The parameters
1384 of the configured card(s) should be passed to the driver. The format

1442 This is support for the UltraStor 14F and 34F SCSI-2 host adapters.
1443 The source at <file:drivers/scsi/u14-34f.c> contains some
1444 information about this hardware. If the driver doesn't work out of

1455 config SCSI_U14_34F_TAGGED_QUEUE
1456 bool "enable tagged command queueing"
1457 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1459 This is a feature of SCSI-2 which improves performance: the host
1460 adapter can send several SCSI commands to a device's queue even if
1461 previous commands haven't finished yet.
1462 This is equivalent to the "u14-34f=tc:y" boot option.
1464 config SCSI_U14_34F_LINKED_COMMANDS
1465 bool "enable elevator sorting"
1466 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1468 This option enables elevator sorting for all probed SCSI disks and
1469 CD-ROMs. It definitely reduces the average seek distance when doing
1470 random seeks, but this does not necessarily result in a noticeable
1471 performance improvement: your mileage may vary...
1472 This is equivalent to the "u14-34f=lc:y" boot option.
1474 config SCSI_U14_34F_MAX_TAGS
1475 int "maximum number of queued commands"
1476 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1479 This specifies how many SCSI commands can be maximally queued for
1480 each probed SCSI device. You should reduce the default value of 8
1481 only if you have disks with buggy or limited tagged command support.
1482 Minimum is 2 and maximum is 14. This value is also the window size
1483 used by the elevator sorting option above. The effective value used
1484 by the driver for each probed SCSI device is reported at boot time.
1485 This is equivalent to the "u14-34f=mq:8" boot option.
1487 config SCSI_ULTRASTOR
1488 tristate "UltraStor SCSI support"
1489 depends on X86 && ISA && SCSI

1513 module will be called nsp32.
1516 tristate "SCSI debugging host simulator"
1519 This is a host adapter simulator that can simulate multiple hosts
1520 each with multiple dummy SCSI devices (disks). It defaults to one
1521 host adapter with one dummy SCSI disk. Each dummy disk uses kernel
1522 RAM as storage (i.e. it is a ramdisk). To save space when multiple
1523 dummy disks are simulated, they share the same kernel RAM for
1524 their storage. See <http://www.torque.net/sg/sdebug.html> for more
1525 information. This driver is primarily of use to those testing the
1526 SCSI and block subsystems. If unsure, say N.
1529 tristate "MESH (Power Mac internal SCSI) support"
1530 depends on PPC32 && PPC_PMAC && SCSI
1532 Many Power Macintoshes and clones have a MESH (Macintosh Enhanced
1533 SCSI Hardware) SCSI bus adaptor (the 7200 doesn't, but all of the
1534 other Power Macintoshes do). Say Y to include support for this SCSI
1537 To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
1538 module will be called mesh.
1540 config SCSI_MESH_SYNC_RATE
1541 int "maximum synchronous transfer rate (MB/s) (0 = async)"
1542 depends on SCSI_MESH
1545 On Power Macintoshes (and clones) where the MESH SCSI bus adaptor
1546 drives a bus which is entirely internal to the machine (such as the
1547 7500, 7600, 8500, etc.), the MESH is capable of synchronous
1548 operation at up to 10 MB/s. On machines where the SCSI bus
1549 controlled by the MESH can have external devices connected, it is
1550 usually rated at 5 MB/s. 5 is a safe value here unless you know the
1551 MESH SCSI bus is internal only; in that case you can say 10. Say 0
1552 to disable synchronous operation.
1554 config SCSI_MESH_RESET_DELAY_MS
1555 int "initial bus reset delay (ms) (0 = no reset)"

1561 depends on PPC32 && PPC_PMAC && SCSI
1563 On Power Macintoshes (and clones) with two SCSI buses, the external
1564 SCSI bus is usually controlled by a 53C94 SCSI bus adaptor. Older
1565 machines which only have one SCSI bus, such as the 7200, also use
1566 the 53C94. Say Y to include support for the 53C94.

1667 Note that all of the above SCSI controllers, except for the builtin
1668 SCSI controller on the Amiga 4000T, reside on the Zorro expansion
1669 bus, so you also have to enable Zorro bus support if you want to use

1692 This driver supports both styles of NCR integration into the
1693 system: the TT style (separate DMA), and the Falcon style (via
1694 ST-DMA, replacing ACSI). It does NOT support other schemes, like
1695 in the Hades (without DMA).

1698 bool "Long delays for Toshiba CD-ROMs"
1699 depends on ATARI_SCSI
1701 This option increases the delay after a SCSI arbitration to
1702 accommodate some flaky Toshiba CD-ROM drives. Say Y if you intend to
1703 use a Toshiba CD-ROM drive; otherwise, the option is not needed and
1704 would impact performance a bit, so say N.
1706 config ATARI_SCSI_RESET_BOOT
1707 bool "Reset SCSI-devices at boottime"
1708 depends on ATARI_SCSI
