10 tristate "SCSI device support"
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.
31 bool "legacy /proc/scsi/ support"
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.

78 tristate "SCSI OnStream SC-x0 tape support"
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

734 Adapters like the DPT PM2001 and the PM2012A. EATA-DMA compliant
735 host adapters could also use this driver but are discouraged from
736 doing so, since this driver only supports hard disks and lacks
737 numerous features. You might want to have a look at the SCSI-HOWTO,

749 other adapters based on the Future Domain chipsets (Quantum
750 ISA-200S, ISA-250MG; Adaptec AHA-2920A; and at least one IBM board).
751 It is explained in section 3.7 of the SCSI-HOWTO, available from

754 NOTE: Newer Adaptec AHA-2920C boards use the Adaptec AIC-7850 chip
755 and should use the aic7xxx driver ("Adaptec AIC7xxx chipset SCSI

766 This is support for Future Domain MCS 600/700 MCA SCSI adapters.
767 Some PS/2 computers are equipped with IBM Fast SCSI Adapter/A which
768 is identical to the MCS 700 and hence also supported by this driver.

794 This is a driver for the old NCR 53c80 series of SCSI controllers
795 on boards using PIO. Most boards such as the Trantor T130 fit this
796 category, along with a large number of ISA 8bit controllers shipped
797 for free with SCSI scanners. If you have a PAS16, T128 or DMX3191
798 you should select the specific driver for that card rather than
799 generic 5380 support.
801 It is explained in section 3.8 of the SCSI-HOWTO, available from

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

836 tristate "IBMMCA SCSI support"
837 depends on MCA_LEGACY && SCSI
839 This is support for the IBM SCSI adapter found in many of the PS/2
840 series computers. These machines have an MCA bus, so you need to
841 answer Y to "MCA support" as well and read
842 <file:Documentation/mca.txt>.
844 If the adapter isn't found during boot (a common problem for models
845 56, 57, 76, and 77) you'll need to use the 'ibmmcascsi=<pun>' kernel
846 option, where <pun> is the id of the SCSI subsystem (usually 7, but
847 if that doesn't work check your reference diskette). Owners of
848 model 95 with a LED-matrix-display can in addition activate some
849 activity info like under OS/2, but more informative, by setting
850 'ibmmcascsi=display' as an additional kernel parameter. Try "man
851 bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot loader about how to
852 pass options to the kernel.

857 config IBMMCA_SCSI_ORDER_STANDARD
858 bool "Standard SCSI-order"
859 depends on SCSI_IBMMCA
861 In the PC-world and in most modern SCSI-BIOS-setups, SCSI-hard disks
862 are assigned to the drive letters, starting with the lowest SCSI-id
863 (physical number -- pun) to be drive C:, as seen from DOS and
864 similar operating systems. When looking into papers describing the
865 ANSI-SCSI-standard, this assignment of drives appears to be wrong.
866 The SCSI-standard follows a hardware-hierarchy which says that id 7
867 has the highest priority and id 0 the lowest. Therefore, the host
868 adapters are still today everywhere placed as SCSI-id 7 by default.
869 In the SCSI-standard, the drive letters express the priority of the
870 disk. C: should be the hard disk, or a partition on it, with the
871 highest priority. This must therefore be the disk with the highest
872 SCSI-id (e.g. 6) and not the one with the lowest! IBM-BIOS kept the
873 original definition of the SCSI-standard as also industrial- and
874 process-control-machines, like VME-CPUs running under realtime-OSes
875 (e.g. LynxOS, OS9) do.
877 If you like to run Linux on your MCA-machine with the same
878 assignment of hard disks as seen from e.g. DOS or OS/2 on your
879 machine, which is in addition conformant to the SCSI-standard, you
880 must say Y here. This is also necessary for MCA-Linux users who want
881 to keep downward compatibility to older releases of the
882 IBM-MCA-SCSI-driver (older than driver-release 2.00 and older than
885 If you like to have the lowest SCSI-id assigned as drive C:, as
886 modern SCSI-BIOSes do, which does not conform to the standard, but
887 is widespread and common in the PC-world of today, you must say N
888 here. If unsure, say Y.
890 config IBMMCA_SCSI_DEV_RESET
891 bool "Reset SCSI-devices at boottime"

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

1011 Some parallel port chipsets are slower than their motherboard, and
1012 so we have to control the state of the chipset's FIFO queue every

1022 Some parallel ports are known to have excessive delays between
1023 changing the parallel port control register and good data being
1024 available on the parallel port data/status register. This option
1025 forces a small delay (1.0 usec to be exact) after changing the
1026 control register to let things settle out. Enabling this option may
1027 result in a big drop in performance but some very old parallel ports

1090 capable (875A, 895A, 896, 1010-33, 1010-66, 1000).
1092 When set to 0, the driver will program the chip to only perform
1093 32-bit DMA. When set to 1, the chip will be able to perform DMA
1094 to addresses up to 1TB. When set to 2, the driver supports the
1095 full 64-bit DMA address range, but can only address 16 segments
1096 of 4 GB each. This limits the total addressable range to 64 GB.
1098 Most machines with less than 4GB of memory should use a setting
1099 of 0 for best performance. If your machine has 4GB of memory
1100 or more, you should set this option to 1 (the default).
1102 The still experimental value 2 (64 bit DMA addressing with 16
1103 x 4GB segments limitation) can be used on systems that require
1104 PCI address bits past bit 39 to be set for the addressing of

1112 This is the default value of the command queue depth the
1113 driver will announce to the generic SCSI layer for devices
1114 that support tagged command queueing. This value can be changed
1115 from the boot command line. This is a soft limit that cannot

1118 config SCSI_SYM53C8XX_MAX_TAGS
1119 int "Maximum number of queued commands"
1120 depends on SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2
1123 This option allows you to specify the maximum number of commands
1124 that can be queued to any device, when tagged command queuing is
1125 possible. The driver supports up to 256 queued commands per device.
1126 This value is used as a compiled-in hard limit.

1178 This is a driver for the MicroChannel Quad 720 card produced by
1179 NCR and commonly used in 345x/35xx/4100 class machines. It always
1180 tries to negotiate sync and uses tag command queueing.
1182 Unless you have an NCR manufactured machine, the chances are that
1183 you do not have this SCSI card, so say N.
1185 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS
1186 int "default tagged command queue depth"
1187 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1190 "Tagged command queuing" is a feature of SCSI-2 which improves
1191 performance: the host adapter can send several SCSI commands to a
1192 device's queue even if previous commands haven't finished yet.
1193 Because the device is intelligent, it can optimize its operations
1194 (like head positioning) based on its own request queue. Some SCSI
1195 devices don't implement this properly; if you want to disable this
1196 feature, enter 0 or 1 here (it doesn't matter which).
1198 The default value is 8 and should be supported by most hard disks.
1199 This value can be overridden from the boot command line using the
1200 'tags' option as follows (example):
1201 'ncr53c8xx=tags:4/t2t3q16/t0u2q10' will set default queue depth to
1202 4, set queue depth to 16 for target 2 and target 3 on controller 0
1203 and set queue depth to 10 for target 0 / lun 2 on controller 1.
1205 The normal answer therefore is to go with the default 8 and to use
1206 a boot command line option for devices that need to use a different
1207 command queue depth.
1209 There is no safe option other than using good SCSI devices.
1211 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_MAX_TAGS
1212 int "maximum number of queued commands"
1213 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1216 This option allows you to specify the maximum number of commands
1217 that can be queued to any device, when tagged command queuing is
1218 possible. The default value is 32. Minimum is 2, maximum is 64.
1219 Modern hard disks are able to support 64 tags and even more, but
1220 do not seem to be faster when more than 32 tags are being used.
1222 So, the normal answer here is to go with the default value 32 unless
1223 you are using very large hard disks with large cache (>= 1 MB) that
1224 are able to take advantage of more than 32 tagged commands.
1226 There is no safe option and the default answer is recommended.
1228 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_SYNC
1229 int "synchronous transfers frequency in MHz"
1230 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1233 The SCSI Parallel Interface-2 Standard defines 5 classes of transfer
1234 rates: FAST-5, FAST-10, FAST-20, FAST-40 and FAST-80. The numbers
1235 are respectively the maximum data transfer rates in mega-transfers
1236 per second for each class. For example, a FAST-20 Wide 16 device is
1237 able to transfer data at 20 million 16 bit packets per second for a
1238 total rate of 40 MB/s.
1240 You may specify 0 if you want to only use asynchronous data
1241 transfers. This is the safest and slowest option. Otherwise, specify
1242 a value between 5 and 80, depending on the capability of your SCSI
1243 controller. The higher the number, the faster the data transfer.
1244 Note that 80 should normally be ok since the driver decreases the
1245 value automatically according to the controller's capabilities.
1247 Your answer to this question is ignored for controllers with NVRAM,
1248 since the driver will get this information from the user set-up. It
1249 also can be overridden using a boot setup option, as follows
1250 (example): 'ncr53c8xx=sync:12' will allow the driver to negotiate
1251 for FAST-20 synchronous data transfer (20 mega-transfers per
1254 The normal answer therefore is not to go with the default but to
1255 select the maximum value 80 allowing the driver to use the maximum
1256 value supported by each controller. If this causes problems with
1257 your SCSI devices, you should come back and decrease the value.
1259 There is no safe option other than using good cabling, right
1260 terminations and SCSI conformant devices.
1262 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_PROFILE
1263 bool "enable profiling"
1264 depends on SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720
1266 This option allows you to enable profiling information gathering.
1267 These statistics are not very accurate due to the low frequency
1268 of the kernel clock (100 Hz on i386) and have performance impact
1269 on systems that use very fast devices.
1271 The normal answer therefore is N.
1273 config SCSI_NCR53C8XX_NO_DISCONNECT
1274 bool "not allow targets to disconnect"
1275 depends on (SCSI_ZALON || SCSI_NCR_Q720) && SCSI_NCR53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS=0
1277 This option is only provided for safety if you suspect some SCSI
1278 device of yours to not support properly the target-disconnect
1279 feature. In that case, you would say Y here. In general however, to
1280 not allow targets to disconnect is not reasonable if there is more

1489 bool "enable tagged command queueing"
1490 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1492 This is a feature of SCSI-2 which improves performance: the host
1493 adapter can send several SCSI commands to a device's queue even if
1494 previous commands haven't finished yet.
1495 This is equivalent to the "u14-34f=tc:y" boot option.

1498 bool "enable elevator sorting"
1499 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1501 This option enables elevator sorting for all probed SCSI disks and
1502 CD-ROMs. It definitely reduces the average seek distance when doing
1503 random seeks, but this does not necessarily result in a noticeable
1504 performance improvement: your mileage may vary...
1505 This is equivalent to the "u14-34f=lc:y" boot option.
1507 config SCSI_U14_34F_MAX_TAGS
1508 int "maximum number of queued commands"
1509 depends on SCSI_U14_34F
1512 This specifies how many SCSI commands can be maximally queued for
1513 each probed SCSI device. You should reduce the default value of 8
1514 only if you have disks with buggy or limited tagged command support.
1515 Minimum is 2 and maximum is 14. This value is also the window size
1516 used by the elevator sorting option above. The effective value used
1517 by the driver for each probed SCSI device is reported at boot time.

1552 This is a host adapter simulator that can simulate multiple hosts
1553 each with multiple dummy SCSI devices (disks). It defaults to one
1554 host adapter with one dummy SCSI disk. Each dummy disk uses kernel
1555 RAM as storage (i.e. it is a ramdisk). To save space when multiple
1556 dummy disks are simulated, they share the same kernel RAM for
1557 their storage. See <http://www.torque.net/sg/sdebug.html> for more

1579 drives a bus which is entirely internal to the machine (such as the
1580 7500, 7600, 8500, etc.), the MESH is capable of synchronous
1581 operation at up to 10 MB/s. On machines where the SCSI bus
1582 controlled by the MESH can have external devices connected, it is
1583 usually rated at 5 MB/s. 5 is a safe value here unless you know the
1584 MESH SCSI bus is internal only; in that case you can say 10. Say 0
