|
LSI Logic Fusion(TM) Message Passing Technology (MPT) device support
|
|
provides high performance SCSI host initiator, and LAN [1] interface
|
|
services to a host system. The Fusion architecture is capable of
|
|
duplexing these protocols on high-speed Fibre Channel
|
|
(up to 2 GHz x 2 ports = 4 GHz) and parallel SCSI (up to Ultra-320)
|
|
physical medium.
|
|
|
|
[1] LAN is not supported on parallel SCSI medium.

default "40"
|
|
help
|
|
This option allows you to specify the maximum number of scatter-
|
|
gather entries per I/O. The driver defaults to 40, a reasonable number
|
|
for most systems. However, the user may increase this up to 128.
|
|
Increasing this parameter will require significantly more memory
|
|
on a per controller instance. Increasing the parameter is not
|
|
necessary (or recommended) unless the user will be running
|
|
large I/O's via the raw interface.

depends on FUSION
|
|
---help---
|
|
The Fusion MPT misc device driver provides specialized control
|
|
of MPT adapters via system ioctl calls. Use of ioctl calls to
|
|
the MPT driver requires that you create and use a misc device
|
|
node ala:
|
|
mknod /dev/mptctl c 10 240
|
|
|
|
One use of this ioctl interface is to perform an upgrade (reflash)
|
|
of the MPT adapter firmware. Refer to readme file(s) distributed
|
|
with the Fusion MPT linux driver for additional details.
|
|
|
|
If enabled by saying M to this, a driver named: mptctl
|
|
will be compiled.
|
|
|
|
If unsure whether you really want or need this, say N.

---help---
|
|
This module supports LAN IP traffic over Fibre Channel port(s)
|
|
on Fusion MPT compatible hardware (LSIFC9xx chips).
|
|
The physical interface used is defined in RFC 2625.
|
|
Please refer to that document for details.
|
|
|
|
Installing this driver requires the knowledge to configure and
|
|
activate a new network interface, "fc0", using standard Linux tools.
|
|
|
|
If enabled by saying M to this, a driver named: mptlan
|
|
will be compiled.
|
|
|
|
If unsure whether you really want or need this, say N.
