Further driver parameters:
irq1,irq2, etc. Only for ICP EISA Controllers with disabled BIOS (irq1, irq2,
etc. correspond with the IRQs of the ICP Controllers)
disable:Y deactivates the ICP driver
disable:N activates the ICP driver
reserve_mode:0 reserves no SCSI devices [*1]
reserve_mode:1 reserves all not-initialized removable hard disk [*1]
reserve_mode:2 reserves all not-initialized SCSI devices [*1]
reserve_list:h,b,t,l,h,b,t,l, reserves SCSI devices at the corresponding coordinates with
h=Hostadapter, b=SCSI Bus, t=Target ID, l=LUN
reverse_scan:Y reversed scanning order of the PCI controllers
reverse_scan:N normal scanning order of PCI Controllers according to the
system BIOS
max_ids:x x = number of target IDs per SCSI channel
(accelerates the boot process)
rescan:Y rescan all SCSI channels / IDs
rescan:N scan only those SCSI devices found during
system power up [*1]
[*1] The driver parameters reserve_mode and rescan:N require ICP Controllers with firm-
ware version FW 1.23.00/2.23.00 or higher.
The current default settings of the driver are:
"gdth=disable:N,reserve_mode:1,reverse_scan:N,max_ids:127,rescan:N"
If gdth is loaded as a module, these parameters can also be added with a special syntax.
IRQ parameters are entered as 'IRQ=' (e.g. IRQ=10). Several parameters are not separated
with a comma (',') but a space (' '). All ':' are substituted with '=', all 'Y' with '1' and all 'N'
with '0'.
Default: "modprobe gdth disable=0 reserve_mode=1 reverse_scan=0
max_ids=127 rescan=0"
G.7 Notes
Further interesting information:
/proc-Support:
Read of /proc/scsi/gdth/0, /proc/scsi/gdth/1, .. :
Displays the ICP Controller/SCSI busses, firmware version, driver version (e.g.: cat
/proc/scsi/gdth/0)
Write to /proc/scsi/gdth/0, .. :
gdth flush Flush all Host Drives of the ICP Controller
gdth flush drive Flush the Host Drive with the number drive
gdth wbp_off Disable Write-Back permanently
gdth wbp_on Enable Write-Back permanently
gdth wb_off Disable Write-Back for this session
(from Firmware version 1.15/2.15)
gdth wb_on Enable Write-Back for this session
(from Firmware version 1.15/2.15)
LINUX IS GREAT !
