NAME
twe
- 3ware 5000/6000/7000/8000 series PATA/SATA RAID adapter driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel,
place the following lines in your
kernel configuration file:
device pcidevice twe
Alternatively, to load the driver as a
module at boot time, place the following line in
loader.conf5:
twe_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The
driver provides support for AMCC's 3ware 5000/6000/7000/8000 series
PATA/SATA RAID adapters.
These adapters were formerly known as
``3ware Escalade''
These devices support 2, 4, 8, or 12 ATA disk drives
and provide RAID0 (striping) and RAID1 (mirroring) functionality.
HARDWARE
The
driver supports the following PATA/SATA RAID
controllers:
AMCC's 3ware 5000 series
AMCC's 3ware 6000 series
AMCC's 3ware 7000-2
AMCC's 3ware 7006-2
AMCC's 3ware 7500-4LP
AMCC's 3ware 7500-8
AMCC's 3ware 7500-12
AMCC's 3ware 7506-4LP
AMCC's 3ware 7506-8
AMCC's 3ware 7506-12
AMCC's 3ware 8006-2LP
AMCC's 3ware 8500-4LP
AMCC's 3ware 8500-8
AMCC's 3ware 8500-12
AMCC's 3ware 8506-4LP
AMCC's 3ware 8506-8
AMCC's 3ware 8506-8MI
AMCC's 3ware 8506-12
AMCC's 3ware 8506-12MI
DIAGNOSTICS
Controller initialisation phase
twe%d: microcontroller not ready
The controller's onboard CPU is not reporting that it is ready;
this may be due to either a board or system failure.
Initialisation has failed.
twe%d: no attention interrupt
twe%d: can't drain AEN queue
twe%d: reset not reported
twe%d: controller errors detected
twe%d: can't drain response queue
twe%d: reset %d failed, trying again
The controller is not responding correctly to
the driver's attempts to reset and initialise it.
This process is retried several times.
twe%d: can't initialise controller, giving up
Several attempts to reset and initialise the controller have failed;
initialisation has failed
and the driver will not attach to this controller.
Driver initialisation/shutdown phase
twe%d: register window not available
twe%d: can't allocate register window
twe%d: can't allocate parent DMA tag
twe%d: can't allocate interrupt
twe%d: can't set up interrupt
twe%d: can't establish configuration hook
A resource allocation error occurred while initialising the driver;
initialisation has failed
and the driver will not attach to this controller.
twe%d: can't detect attached units
Fetching the list of attached units failed; initialisation has failed.
twe%d: error fetching capacity for unit %d
twe%d: error fetching state for unit %d
twe%d: error fetching descriptor size for unit %d
twe%d: error fetching descriptor for unit %d
twe%d: device_add_child failed
twe%d: bus_generic_attach returned %d
Creation of the disk devices failed, either due to communication
problems with the adapter or due to resource shortage;
attachment of one or more units may have been aborted.
Operational phase
twe%d: command completed - %s
A command was reported completed with a warning by the controller.
The warning may be one of:
redundant/inconsequential request ignored
failed to write zeroes to LBA 0
failed to profile TwinStor zones
twe%d: command failed - %s
A command was reported as failed by the controller.
The failure message may be one of:
aborted due to system command or reconfiguration
aborted
access error
access violation
device failure
controller error
timed out
invalid unit number
unit not available
undefined opcode
request incompatible with unit
invalid request
firmware error, reset requested
The command will be returned to the operating system after a
fatal error.
A command could not be delivered to the controller because
the controller is unresponsive.
twe%d: AEN: <%s>
The controller has reported a change in status using an AEN
(Asynchronous Event Notification).
The following AENs may be reported:
queue empty
soft reset
degraded mirror
controller error
rebuild fail
rebuild done
incomplete unit
initialisation done
unclean shutdown detected
drive timeout
drive error
rebuild started
aen queue full
AENs are also queued internally for use by management tools.
twe%d: error polling for signalled AE
The controller has reported
that one or more status messages are ready for the driver,
but attempting to fetch one of these has returned an error.
twe%d: AEN queue overflow, lost AEN <%s>
A status message was retrieved from the controller,
but there is no more room to queue it in the driver.
The message is lost (but will be printed to the console).
twe%d: missing expected status bits %s
twe%d: unexpected status bits %s
A check of the controller's status bits
indicates an unexpected condition.
twe%d: host interrupt
The controller has signalled a host interrupt.
This serves an unknown purpose and is ignored.
twe%d: command interrupt
The controller has signalled a command interrupt.
This is not used, and will be disabled.
twe%d: controller reset in progress...
The controller is being reset by the driver.
Typically this is done when the driver has determined that the
controller is in an unrecoverable state.
twe%d: can't reset controller, giving up
The driver has given up on resetting the controller.
No further I/O will be handled.
controller reset done, %d commands restarted
The controller was successfully reset,
and outstanding commands were restarted.
AUTHORS
An -nosplit
The
driver and manual page were written by
An Michael Smith
Aq [email protected] .
The controller cannot handle I/O transfers
that are not aligned to a 512-byte boundary.
In order to support raw device access from user-space,
the driver will perform alignment fixup on non-aligned data.
This process is inefficient,
and thus in order to obtain best performance
user-space applications accessing the device
should do so with aligned buffers.
