^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  13) The CDB counts below indicate the number of SCSI CDB (Command
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  14) Descriptor Block) requests that can be stored in the RISC chip
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  15) cache and board LRAM. A CDB is a single SCSI command. The driver
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  16) detect routine will display the number of CDBs available for each
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  17) adapter detected. The number of CDBs used by the driver can be
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  18) lowered in the BIOS by changing the 'Host Queue Size' adapter setting.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  65) =========================================
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  66) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  67) The following constants can be defined in the source file.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  68) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  69) 1. ADVANSYS_ASSERT - Enable driver assertions (Def: Enabled)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  70) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  71)    Enabling this option adds assertion logic statements to the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  72)    driver. If an assertion fails a message will be displayed to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  73)    the console, but the system will continue to operate. Any
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  74)    assertions encountered should be reported to the person
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  75)    responsible for the driver. Assertion statements may proactively
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  76)    detect problems with the driver and facilitate fixing these
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  77)    problems. Enabling assertions will add a small overhead to the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  78)    execution of the driver.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  79) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  80) 2. ADVANSYS_DEBUG - Enable driver debugging (Def: Disabled)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  81) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  82)    Enabling this option adds tracing functions to the driver and the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  83)    ability to set a driver tracing level at boot time.  This option is
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  84)    very useful for debugging the driver, but it will add to the size
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  85)    of the driver execution image and add overhead to the execution of
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  86)    the driver.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  87) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  88)    The amount of debugging output can be controlled with the global
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  89)    variable 'asc_dbglvl'. The higher the number the more output. By
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  90)    default the debug level is 0.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  91) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  92)    If the driver is loaded at boot time and the LILO Driver Option
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  93)    is included in the system, the debug level can be changed by
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  94)    specifying a 5th (ASC_NUM_IOPORT_PROBE + 1) I/O Port. The
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  95)    first three hex digits of the pseudo I/O Port must be set to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  96)    'deb' and the fourth hex digit specifies the debug level: 0 - F.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  97)    The following command line will look for an adapter at 0x330
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  98)    and set the debug level to 2::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300  99) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 100)       linux advansys=0x330,0,0,0,0xdeb2
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 101) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 102)    If the driver is built as a loadable module this variable can be
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 103)    defined when the driver is loaded. The following insmod command
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 104)    will set the debug level to one::

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 117)    To enable debug output to console, please make sure that:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 118) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 119)    a. System and kernel logging is enabled (syslogd, klogd running).
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 120)    b. Kernel messages are routed to console output. Check
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 121)       /etc/syslog.conf for an entry similar to this::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 122)

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 125)    c. klogd is started with the appropriate -c parameter
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 126)       (e.g. klogd -c 8)

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 128)    This will cause printk() messages to be displayed on the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 129)    current console. Refer to the klogd(8) and syslogd(8) man pages

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 149) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 150)    Enabling this option adds statistics collection and display
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 151)    through /proc to the driver. The information is useful for
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 152)    monitoring driver and device performance. It will add to the
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 153)    size of the driver execution image and add minor overhead to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 154)    the execution of the driver.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 156)    Statistics are maintained on a per adapter basis. Driver entry
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 157)    point call counts and transfer size counts are maintained.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 158)    Statistics are only available for kernels greater than or equal
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 159)    to v1.3.0 with the CONFIG_PROC_FS (/proc) file system configured.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 165)    This information can be displayed with cat. For example::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 166) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 167)       cat /proc/scsi/advansys/0

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 169)    When ADVANSYS_STATS is not defined the AdvanSys /proc files only
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 170)    contain adapter and device configuration information.

^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 173) ==================
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 174) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 175) If init/main.c is modified as described in the 'Directions for Adding
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 176) the AdvanSys Driver to Linux' section (B.4.) above, the driver will
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 177) recognize the 'advansys' LILO command line and /etc/lilo.conf option.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 178) This option can be used to either disable I/O port scanning or to limit
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 179) scanning to 1 - 4 I/O ports. Regardless of the option setting EISA and
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 180) PCI boards will still be searched for and detected. This option only
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 181) affects searching for ISA and VL boards.
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 182) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 183) Examples:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 184)   1. Eliminate I/O port scanning:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 185) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 186)      boot::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 187) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 188) 	linux advansys=
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 189) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 190)      or::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 191) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 192) 	boot: linux advansys=0x0
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 193) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 194)   2. Limit I/O port scanning to one I/O port:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 195) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 196)      boot::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 197) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 198) 	linux advansys=0x110
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 199) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 200)   3. Limit I/O port scanning to four I/O ports:
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 201) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 202)      boot::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 203) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 204) 	linux advansys=0x110,0x210,0x230,0x330
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 205) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 206) For a loadable module the same effect can be achieved by setting
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 207) the 'asc_iopflag' variable and 'asc_ioport' array when loading
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 208) the driver, e.g.::
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 209) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 210)       insmod advansys.o asc_iopflag=1 asc_ioport=0x110,0x330
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 211) 
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 212) If ADVANSYS_DEBUG is defined a 5th (ASC_NUM_IOPORT_PROBE + 1)
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 213) I/O Port may be added to specify the driver debug level. Refer to
^8f3ce5b39 (kx 2023-10-28 12:00:06 +0300 214) the 'Driver Compile Time Options and Debugging' section above for
