36.Nm hk
37.Nd
38.Tn RK6-11 Ns / Tn RK06

42.Sh SYNOPSIS
43.Cd "hk0 at uba? csr 0177440 vector rkintr"
44.Cd "rk0 at hk0 drive 0"
45.Sh DESCRIPTION
46NOTE: This driver has not been ported from
47.Bx 4.4
48yet.
49.Pp
50The
51.Nm hk
52driver
53is a typical block-device disk driver; block device
54.Tn I/O
55is
56described in
57.Xr physio 4 .
58.Pp
59The script
60.Xr MAKEDEV 8
61should be used to create the special files; if a special file
62needs to be created by hand consult
63.Xr mknod 8 .
64.Sh DISK SUPPORT
65Special file names begin with
66.Sq Li hk
67and
68.Sq Li rhk
69for the block and character files respectively. The second
70component of the name, a drive unit number in the range of zero to
71seven, is represented by a
72.Sq Li \&?
73in the disk layouts below. The last component is the file system partition
74which is designated
75by a letter from
76.Sq Li a
77to
78.Sq Li h .
79and
80corresponds to a minor device number set: zero to seven,
81eight to 15, 16 to 23 and so forth for drive zero, drive two and drive
82three respectively.
83The location and size (in sectors) of the
84partitions for the
85.Tn RK06
86and
87.Tn RK07
88drives are as follows:
89.Bl -column header diskx undefined length

96	hk?f	41844	11792	634-814

104.El
105.Pp
106On a dual
107.Tn RK-07
108system
109partition hk?a is used
110for the root for one drive
111and partition hk?g for the /usr file system.
112If large jobs are to be run using
113hk?b on both drives as swap area provides a 10Mbyte paging area.
114Otherwise
115partition hk?c on the other drive
116is used as a single large file system.

124.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
125.Bl -diag
126.It "hk%d%c: hard error %sing fsbn %d[-%d] cs2=%b ds=%b er=%b."
127An unrecoverable error occurred during transfer of the specified
128filesystem block number(s),
129which are logical block numbers on the indicated partition.
130The contents of the cs2, ds and er registers are printed
131in octal and symbolically with bits decoded.
132The error was either unrecoverable, or a large number of retry attempts
133(including offset positioning and drive recalibration) could not
134recover the error.
135.Pp
136.It rk%d: write locked.
137The write protect switch was set on the drive
138when a write was attempted.  The write operation is not recoverable.
139.Pp
140.It rk%d: not ready.
141The drive was spun down or off line when it was
142accessed.  The i/o operation is not recoverable.
143.Pp
144.It rk%d: not ready (came back!).
145The drive was not ready, but after
146printing the message about being not ready (which takes a fraction
147of a second) was ready.  The operation is recovered if no further
148errors occur.
149.Pp
150.It rk%d%c: soft ecc reading fsbn %d[-%d].
151A recoverable
152.Tn ECC
153error occurred on the
154specified sector(s) in the specified disk partition.
155This happens normally
156a few times a week.  If it happens more frequently than
157this the sectors where the errors are occurring should be checked to see
158if certain cylinders on the pack, spots on the carriage of the drive
159or heads are indicated.
160.Pp
161.It hk%d: lost interrupt.
162A timer watching the controller detected
163no interrupt for an extended period while an operation was outstanding.
164This indicates a hardware or software failure.  There is currently a
165hardware/software problem with spinning down drives while they are
166being accessed which causes this error to occur.
167The error causes a
168.Tn UNIBUS
169reset, and retry of the pending operations.
170If the controller continues to lose interrupts, this error will recur
171a few seconds later.

178.Sh HISTORY
179The
180.Nm
181driver appeared in
182.Bx 4.1 .
183.Sh BUGS
184The
185.Xr write 2
186function
187scribbles on the tail of incomplete blocks.
188.Pp
189.Tn DEC Ns -standard
190error logging should be supported.
191.Pp
192A program to analyze the logged error information (even in its
193present reduced form) is needed.
194.Pp
195The partition tables for the file systems should be read off of each
196pack, as they are never quite what any single installation would prefer,
197and this would make packs more portable.
198.Pp
199The
200.Tn RK07
201g partition size in rk.c disagrees with that in
202.Pa /etc/disktab .
