159 The CAM buffer/CDB encoding and decoding routines provide a relatively easy
160 migration path for userland
162 applications written with the similarly-named
164 functions from the old
169 These functions may be used in new applications, but users may find it
170 easier to use the various SCSI CCB building functions included with the
174 .Fn scsi_start_stop ,

181 structure based on the information provided in
182 the variable argument list.

254 Multiple flags should be ORed together. Any of the CCB flags may be used,
255 although it is worth noting several important ones here:
256 .Bl -tag -width CAM_PASS_ERR_RECOVER
258 This indicates that the operation in question is a read operation. i.e.,
259 data is being read from the
261 device to the user-supplied buffer.
263 This indicates that the operation is a write operation. i.e. data is being
264 written from the user-supplied buffer to the device.
266 This indicates that there is no data to be transferred for this command.
267 .It Dv CAM_DEV_QFRZDIS
268 This flag disables device queue freezing as an error recovery mechanism.
269 .It Dv CAM_PASS_ERR_RECOVER
272 driver to enable error recovery. The default is to not perform error
273 recovery, which means that the retry count won't be honored without this
274 flag, among other things.
276 This indicates that the address contained in
278 is a physical address, not a virtual address.
283 tells the kernel how many times to retry the command in question. The
284 retry count is ignored unless the
286 driver is told to enable error recovery via the
287 .Dv CAM_PASS_ERR_RECOVER
292 tells the kernel how long to wait for the given command to complete. If
293 the timeout expires and the command hasn't completed, the CCB will be
294 returned from the kernel with an appropriate error status.
297 is a CDB format specifier used to build up the SCSI CDB.
298 This text string is made up of a list of field specifiers. Field
299 specifiers specify the value for each CDB field (including indicating
300 that the value be taken from the next argument in the
301 variable argument list), the width
302 of the field in bits or bytes, and an optional name. White space is
303 ignored, and the pound sign ('#') introduces a comment that ends at the
304 end of the current line.
306 The optional name is the first part of a field specifier and
307 is in curly braces. The text in curly braces in this example are
309 .Dl "{PS} v:b1 {Reserved} 0:b1 {Page Code} v:b6 # Mode select page"
311 This field specifier has two one bit fields and one six bit field.
312 The second one bit field is the constant value 0 and the first
313 one bit field and the six bit field are taken from the variable
315 Multi byte fields are swapped into the SCSI byte order in the
316 CDB and white space is ignored.
318 When the field is a hex value or the letter v, (e.g.,
322 then a single byte value
323 is copied to the next unused byte of the CDB.
326 is used the next integer argument is taken from the variable argument list
329 A constant hex value followed by a field width specifier or the letter
331 followed by a field width specifier (e.g.,
336 specifies a field of a given bit or byte width.
337 Either the constant value or (for the V specifier) the next integer value from
338 the variable argument list is copied to the next unused
339 bits or bytes of the CDB.
341 A decimal number or the letter
343 followed by a decimal number field width indicates a bit field of that width.
344 The bit fields are packed as tightly as possible beginning with the
345 high bit (so that it reads the same as the SCSI spec), and a new byte of
346 the CDB is started whenever a byte fills completely or when an
348 field is encountered.
350 A field width specifier consisting of the letter
353 1, 2, 3 or 4 indicates a 1, 2, 3 or 4 byte integral value that must
354 be swapped into SCSI byte order (MSB first).
358 field specifier the next integer argument is taken from the variable argument
359 list and that value is used swapped into SCSI byte order.
362 operates similarly to
364 except that the values to substitute for variable arguments in
366 are retrieved via the
368 function passed in to
374 function takes two arguments:
375 .Bl -tag -width field_name
379 function at each invocation. This enables the
381 function to keep some state in between calls without using global or static
384 is the field name supplied in
390 is used to decode information from the data in phase of the SCSI
393 The decoding is similar to
394 the command specifier processing of
396 except that the data is extracted from the data pointed to by
398 The stdarg list should be pointers to integers instead of integer
400 A seek field type and a suppression modifier are added.
403 suppression modifier (e.g.,
407 suppresses assignment from the field and can be used to skip
408 over bytes or bits in the data, without having to copy
409 them to a dummy variable in the arg list.
413 permits you to skip over data.
414 This seeks to an absolute position
416 or a relative position
418 in the data, based on whether or not the presence of the '+' sign.
419 The seek value can be specified as
421 and the next integer value from the argument list will be
422 used as the seek value.
424 .Fn csio_decode_visit
427 except that instead of placing the decoded contents of the buffer in
428 variadic arguments, the decoded buffer contents are returned to the user
431 function that is passed in.
434 function takes several arguments:
435 .Bl -tag -width letter
437 The "hook" is a mechanism to allow the
439 function to save state in between calls.
441 is the letter describing the format of the argument being passed into the
444 is a void pointer to the value being passed into the function.
446 is the size of the value being passed into the
448 function. The argument format determines the unit of measure.

503 The CAM versions of these functions are based upon similar functions
504 implemented for the old
507 layer. The encoding/decoding functions in the old
509 code were written by Peter Dufault.
511 Many systems have comparable interfaces to permit a user to construct a
512 SCSI command in user space.
516 data structure was almost identical to the SGI /dev/scsi data
517 structure. If anyone knows the name of the authors it should
518 go here; Peter Dufault first read about it in a 1989 Sun Expert magazine.
520 The new CCB data structures are derived from the CAM-2 and CAM-3
524 implemented a clone of SGI's interface in
530 library and the related kernel ioctl.
531 If anyone needs that for compatibility contact dufault@hda.com.
533 Kenneth Merry implemented the CAM versions of these encoding and decoding
534 functions. This current work is based upon earlier work by Peter Dufault.
536 There should probably be a function that encodes both the CDB and the data
539 CCB. I discovered this while implementing the arbitrary command execution
542 but I haven't yet had time to implement such a function.
544 Some of the CCB flag descriptions really don't belong here. Rather they
545 belong in a generic CCB man page. Since that man page hasn't yet been
546 written, the shorter descriptions here will have to suffice.
