It is typical of a block-device disk driver; block .Tn I/O is described in .Xr physio 4 . .Pp The script .Xr MAKEDEV 8 should be used to create the special files; if a special file needs to be created by hand consult .Xr mknod 8 . It is recommended as a security precaution to not create special files for devices which may never be installed. .Pp The first sector of each disk contains both a first-stage bootstrap program and a disk label containing geometry information and partition layouts (see .Xr disklabel 5 . This sector is normally write-protected, and disk-to-disk copies should avoid copying this sector. The label may be updated with .Xr disklabel 8 , which can also be used to write-enable and write-disable the sector. The next 15 sectors contain a second-stage bootstrap program. .Sh DISK SUPPORT This driver handles both standard .Tn DEC controllers and Emulex .Tn SC750 and .Tn SC780 controllers. During autoconfiguration or whenever a drive comes on line for the first time, or when a drive is opened after all partitions are closed, the first sector of the drive is examined for a disk label. If a label is found, the geometry of the drive and the partition tables are taken from it. If no label is found, standard .Tn DEC drive types are recognized according to the .Tn MASSBUS drive type register, and default partitions are used. For the Emulex controller the drive type register should be configured to indicate the drive is an .Tn RM02 . When this is encountered, the driver checks the holding register to find out the disk geometry and, based on this information, decides what the drive type is. .Pp Special file names begin with .Sq Li hp and .Sq Li rhp for the block and character files respectively. The second component of the name, a drive unit number in the range of zero to seven, is represented by a .Sq Li ? in the disk layouts below. The last component is the file system partition designated by a letter from .Sq Li a to .Sq Li h and also corresponds to a minor device number set: zero to seven, eight to 15, 16 to 23 and so forth for drive zero, drive two and drive three respectively. The following disks are supported: .Tn RM03 , .Tn RM05 , .Tn RP06 , .Tn RM80 , .Tn RP05 , .Tn RP07 , .Tn ML11A , .Tn ML11B , .Tn CDC 9775 , .Tn CDC 9730 , .Tn AMPEX Capricorn (32 sectors/track), .Tn FUJITSU Eagle (48 sectors/track), .Tn FUJITSU 2361, and .Tn AMPEX 9300.

On disks larger than about 205 Megabytes, the hp?h partition is inserted prior to the hp?d or hp?g partition; the hp?g partition then maps the remainder of the pack. All disk partition tables are calculated using the .Xr diskpart 8 program. .Pp .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width /dev/rhp[0-7][a-h] -compact .It Pa /dev/hp[0-7][a-h] block files .It Pa /dev/rhp[0-7][a-h] raw files .El .Sh DIAGNOSTICS .Bl -diag .It "hp%d%c: hard error %sing fsbn %d [of %d-%d] (hp%d bn %d cn %d tn %d sn %d) mbsr=%b er1=%b er2=%b." An unrecoverable error occurred during transfer of the specified filesystem block number, which is a logical block number on the indicated partition. If the transfer involved multiple blocks, the block range is printed as well. The parenthesized fields list the actual disk sector number relative to the beginning of the drive, as well as the cylinder, track and sector number of the block. The .Tn MASSBUS status register is printed in hexadecimal and with the error bits decoded if any error bits other than .Tn MBEXC and .Tn DTABT are set. In any case the contents of the two error registers are also printed in octal and symbolically with bits decoded. (Note that er2 is what old .Tn RP06 manuals would call .Tn RPER3 ; the terminology is that of the .Tn RM disks). The error was either unrecoverable, or a large number of retry attempts (including offset positioning and drive recalibration) could not recover the error. .Pp .It hp%d: write locked.

A recoverable .Tn ECC error occurred on the specified sector of the specified disk partition. If the transfer involved multiple blocks, the block range is printed as well. The parenthesized fields list the actual disk sector number relative to the beginning of the drive, as well as the cylinder, track and sector number of the block. This happens normally a few times a week. If it happens more frequently than this the sectors where the errors are occurring should be checked to see if certain cylinders on the pack, spots on the carriage of the drive or heads are indicated. .Pp .It hp%d: 9775 (direct). .It hp%d: 9730 (direct). .It hp%d: 9300. .It hp%d: 9762. .It hp%d: capricorn. .It hp%d: eagle. .It hp%d: 2361. .It hp%d: ntracks %d, nsectors %d: unknown device. During autoconfiguration one of the above messages may appear on the console indicating the appropriate drive type was recognized. The last message indicates the drive is of a unknown type. In this case, the correct geometry is set, and one partition is created that contains the entire drive. .Pp .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr physio 4 , .Xr up 4 , .Xr disklabel 5 , .Xr MAKEDEV 8 .Xr disklabel 8 .Xr mknod 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm driver appeared in .Bx 4.0 . .Sh BUGS .Tn DEC Ns -standard error logging should be supported. .Pp A program to analyze the logged error information (even in its present reduced form) is needed.
