All communication with the controllers is conducted via the 45EATA (Enhanced AT Bus Attachment) protocol. 46.Pp 47DPT adapters examine and interpret all 48.Tn SCSI 49commands received before passing them to any underlying physical device(s). 50In this way, caching, RAID and other transformations are achieved while 51remaining transparent to the host operating system. 52.Sh HARDWARE 53The 54.Nm 55driver provides support for the adapters listed below. Later models are 56supported by the 57.Nm iop 58driver. 59.Pp 60.Bl -tag -width Dv -offset indent -compact 61.It Tn DPT SmartCache III 62.It Tn DPT SmartCache IV 63.It Tn DPT SmartRAID III 64.It Tn DPT SmartRAID IV 65.El 66.Sh FILES 67.Bl -tag -width /dev/dptn -compact 68.It Pa /dev/dpt Ns Ar u 69control device for unit 70.Ar u 71.El 72.Sh DIAGNOSTICS 73None of these messages should be encountered under normal circumstances.

This may be caused 79by older firmware. Generally the solution is to power-cycle the affected 80machine. 81.It dpt%d: spurious intr 82A spurious interrupt was received from the HBA. 83.It dpt%d: bogus status (returned CCB id NNNN) 84A corrupt or incomplete status packet was received from the HBA. 85.El 86.Sh SEE ALSO 87.Xr cd 4 , 88.Xr ch 4 , 89.Xr dpti 4 , 90.Xr intro 4 , 91.Xr iop 4 , 92.Xr scsi 4 , 93.Xr sd 4 , 94.Xr st 4 95.Pp 96The 97.Pa sysutils/dptutil 98package. 99.Pp 100CAM committee standard CAM/89-004 - the EATA (Enhanced AT Bus Attachment) 101protocol. 102.Sh HISTORY 103The 104.Nm dpt 105driver first appeared in 106.Nx 1.4.2 . 107.Sh BUGS 108EATA adapters other than listed may function correctly with the 109.Nm 110driver, however a definitive list is not available. 111.Pp 112Older boards that do not support scatter-gather I/O or DMA are not supported. 113.Pp 114ECC formatted disk and arrays (i.e. with a sector size of 528 bytes) do not 115work correctly with the PM2041 and certain firmware revisions of the PM3334. 116
