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

183 structure based on the information provided in
184 the variable argument list.

256 Multiple flags should be ORed together. Any of the CCB flags may be used,
257 although it is worth noting several important ones here:
258 .Bl -tag -width CAM_PASS_ERR_RECOVER
260 This indicates that the operation in question is a read operation. i.e.,
261 data is being read from the
263 device to the user-supplied buffer.
265 This indicates that the operation is a write operation. i.e. data is being
266 written from the user-supplied buffer to the device.
268 This indicates that there is no data to be transferred for this command.
269 .It Dv CAM_DEV_QFRZDIS
270 This flag disables device queue freezing as an error recovery mechanism.
271 .It Dv CAM_PASS_ERR_RECOVER
274 driver to enable error recovery. The default is to not perform error
275 recovery, which means that the retry count won't be honored without this
276 flag, among other things.
278 This indicates that the address contained in
280 is a physical address, not a virtual address.
285 tells the kernel how many times to retry the command in question. The
286 retry count is ignored unless the
288 driver is told to enable error recovery via the
289 .Dv CAM_PASS_ERR_RECOVER
294 tells the kernel how long to wait for the given command to complete. If
295 the timeout expires and the command hasn't completed, the CCB will be
296 returned from the kernel with an appropriate error status.
299 is a CDB format specifier used to build up the SCSI CDB.
300 This text string is made up of a list of field specifiers. Field
301 specifiers specify the value for each CDB field (including indicating
302 that the value be taken from the next argument in the
303 variable argument list), the width
304 of the field in bits or bytes, and an optional name. White space is
305 ignored, and the pound sign ('#') introduces a comment that ends at the
306 end of the current line.
308 The optional name is the first part of a field specifier and
309 is in curly braces. The text in curly braces in this example are
311 .Dl "{PS} v:b1 {Reserved} 0:b1 {Page Code} v:b6 # Mode select page"
313 This field specifier has two one bit fields and one six bit field.
314 The second one bit field is the constant value 0 and the first
315 one bit field and the six bit field are taken from the variable
317 Multi byte fields are swapped into the SCSI byte order in the
318 CDB and white space is ignored.
320 When the field is a hex value or the letter v, (e.g.,
324 then a single byte value
325 is copied to the next unused byte of the CDB.
328 is used the next integer argument is taken from the variable argument list
331 A constant hex value followed by a field width specifier or the letter
333 followed by a field width specifier (e.g.,
338 specifies a field of a given bit or byte width.
339 Either the constant value or (for the V specifier) the next integer value from
340 the variable argument list is copied to the next unused
341 bits or bytes of the CDB.
343 A decimal number or the letter
345 followed by a decimal number field width indicates a bit field of that width.
346 The bit fields are packed as tightly as possible beginning with the
347 high bit (so that it reads the same as the SCSI spec), and a new byte of
348 the CDB is started whenever a byte fills completely or when an
350 field is encountered.
352 A field width specifier consisting of the letter
355 1, 2, 3 or 4 indicates a 1, 2, 3 or 4 byte integral value that must
356 be swapped into SCSI byte order (MSB first).
360 field specifier the next integer argument is taken from the variable argument
361 list and that value is used swapped into SCSI byte order.
364 operates similarly to
366 except that the values to substitute for variable arguments in
368 are retrieved via the
370 function passed in to
376 function takes two arguments:
377 .Bl -tag -width field_name
381 function at each invocation. This enables the
383 function to keep some state in between calls without using global or static
386 is the field name supplied in
392 is used to decode information from the data in phase of the SCSI
395 The decoding is similar to
396 the command specifier processing of
398 except that the data is extracted from the data pointed to by
400 The stdarg list should be pointers to integers instead of integer
402 A seek field type and a suppression modifier are added.
405 suppression modifier (e.g.,
409 suppresses assignment from the field and can be used to skip
410 over bytes or bits in the data, without having to copy
411 them to a dummy variable in the arg list.
415 permits you to skip over data.
416 This seeks to an absolute position
418 or a relative position
420 in the data, based on whether or not the presence of the '+' sign.
421 The seek value can be specified as
423 and the next integer value from the argument list will be
424 used as the seek value.
426 .Fn csio_decode_visit
429 except that instead of placing the decoded contents of the buffer in
430 variadic arguments, the decoded buffer contents are returned to the user
433 function that is passed in.
436 function takes several arguments:
437 .Bl -tag -width letter
439 The "hook" is a mechanism to allow the
441 function to save state in between calls.
443 is the letter describing the format of the argument being passed into the
446 is a void pointer to the value being passed into the function.
448 is the size of the value being passed into the
450 function. The argument format determines the unit of measure.

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