ADV(4)       Kernel Interfaces Manual   ADV(4)

NAME
       adv -- Advansys ISA/VL/EISA/PCI 8bit SCSI Host adapter driver

SYNOPSIS
       For one or more ISA or VL cards:
       device isa
       device advIn/boot/device.hints:
       hint.adv.0.at="isa"

       For one or more EISA cards:
       device eisa
       device adv

       For one or more PCI cards:
       device pci
       device adv

       For one or more SCSI busses:
       device scbus

DESCRIPTION
       This  driver  provides access to the 8bit SCSI bus connected to the Ad-
       vanced Systems  Products,  Inc.  ASC900,  ASC1000,  ASC1090,  ASC1200,
       ASC3030, ASC3050, and ASC3150 host adapter chips.  The following tables
       list  the  AdvanSys  products  using  these chips, their bus attachment
       type, maximum sync rate, and the maximum number of commands that can be
       handled by the adapter concurrently.

      Connectivity Products:

      Footnotes:
      1.   This board has been shipped by HP with the 4020i CD-R drive.
    The board has no BIOS so it cannot control a boot device,
    but it can control any secondary SCSI device.
      2.   This board has been sold by Iomega as a Jaz Jet PCI adapter.
      3.   This board has been sold by SIIG as the i540 SpeedMaster.
      4.   This board has been sold by SIIG as the i542 SpeedMaster.
      5.   This board has been sold by SIIG as the Fast SCSI Pro PCI.

      Single Channel Products:

      Multi Channel Products (Commands are per-channel):

      Adapter    Bus  Floppy      MaxSync   Commands  Channels
      ABP752   EISA    Yes       10MHz   240    2
      ABP852    VL    Yes       10MHz   240    2
      ABP950    PCI    No       10MHz   240    2
      ABP980    PCI    No       10MHz   240    4
      ABP980U    PCI    No       20MHz   240    4
      ABP[3]980UA   PCI    No       20MHz   16    4

       Per target configuration performed in the AdvanceWare  menu,  which  is
       accessible  at boot, is honored by this driver. This includes synchro-
       nous/asynchronous transfers, maximum synchronous negotiation rate, dis-
       connection, tagged queueing, and  the  host  adapter's  SCSI  ID.   The
       global  setting for  the maximum number of tagged transactions allowed
       per target is not honored as the CAM SCSI system will automatically de-
       termine the maximum number of tags a device  can  receive  as  well  as
       guarantee fair resource allocation among devices.

HISTORY
       The adv driver appeared in FreeBSD 3.0.

AUTHORS
       The  adv  driver  was  ported  by Justin T. Gibbs from the Linux driver
       written by Bob Frey of Advanced System Products, Inc.  Many  thanks  to
       AdvanSys for providing the original driver under a suitable license for
       use in FreeBSD.
