89.Pp 90The 91.Ar channel 92argument is the ATA channel device (e.g., ata0) on which to operate. 93The following commands are supported: 94.Bl -tag -width "rebuild" 95.It Ic attach 96Attach an ATA 97.Ar channel . 98Devices on the channel are probed and attached as 99is done on boot. 100.It Ic detach 101Detach an ATA 102.Ar channel . 103Devices on the channel are removed from the kernel, 104and all outstanding transfers etc.\& are returned back to the system marked 105as failed. 106.It Ic reinit 107Reinitialize an ATA 108.Ar channel . 109Both devices on the channel are reset and 110initialized to the parameters the ATA driver has stored internally. 111Devices that have gone bad and no longer respond to the probe, or devices 112that have physically been removed, are removed from the kernel. 113Likewise are devices that show up during a reset, probed and attached. 114.It Ic create 115Create a 116.Ar type 117ATA RAID. 118The type can be 119.Cm RAID0 120(stripe), 121.Cm RAID1 122(mirror), 123.Cm RAID0+1 , 124.Cm SPAN 125or 126.Cm JBOD . 127In case the RAID has a 128.Cm RAID0 129component, 130the 131.Ar interleave 132must be specified in number of sectors. 133The RAID will be created 134of the individual disks named 135.Bk -words 136.Ar disk0 ... diskN . 137.Ek 138.Pp 139Although the NATA driver allows for creating an ATA RAID on disks with any 140controller, there are restrictions. 141It is only possible to boot on 142an array if it is either located on a 143.Dq real 144ATA RAID controller like 145the Promise or Highpoint controllers, or if the RAID declared is of 146.Cm RAID1 147or 148.Cm SPAN 149type; in case of a 150.Cm SPAN , 151the partition to boot must 152reside on the first disk in the SPAN. 153.It Ic delete 154Delete a RAID array on a RAID capable ATA controller. 155.It Ic addspare 156Add a spare disk to an existing RAID. 157.It Ic rebuild 158Rebuild a RAID1 array on a RAID capable ATA controller. 159.It Ic status 160Get the status of an ATA RAID. 161.It Ic mode 162Without the mode argument, the current transfer modes of the 163device are printed. 164If the mode argument is given, the NATA driver 165is asked to change the transfer mode to the one given. 166The NATA driver 167will reject modes that are not supported by the hardware. 168Modes are given like 169.Dq Li PIO3 , 170.Dq Li udma2 , 171.Dq Li udma100 , 172case does not matter. 173.Pp 174Currently supported modes are: 175.Cm PIO0 , PIO1 , PIO2 , PIO3 , PIO4 , 176.Cm WDMA2 , 177.Cm UDMA2 178(alias 179.Cm UDMA33 ) , 180.Cm UDMA4 181(alias 182.Cm UDMA66 ) , 183.Cm UDMA5 184(alias 185.Cm UDMA100 ) 186and 187.Cm UDMA6 188(alias 189.Cm UDMA133 ) . 190The device name and manufacture/version strings are shown. 191.It Ic cap 192Show detailed info about the device on 193.Ar device . 194.It Ic info 195Show info about the attached devices on the 196.Ar channel . 197.It Ic list 198Show info about all attached devices on all active controllers. 199.El 200.Sh EXAMPLES 201To get information on devices attached to a channel, 202use the command line: 203.Pp 204.Dl "natacontrol info ata0" 205.Pp 206To see the devices' current access modes, use the command line: 207.Pp 208.Dl "natacontrol mode ad0" 209.Pp 210which results in the modes of the devices being displayed as a string 211like this: 212.Pp 213.Dl "current mode = UDMA100" 214.Pp 215You can set the mode with 216.Nm 217and a string like the above, 218for example: 219.Pp 220.Dl "natacontrol mode ad0 PIO4" 221.Pp 222The new modes are set as soon as the 223.Nm 224command returns. 225.Sh SEE ALSO 226.Xr nata 4 227.Sh HISTORY 228The 229.Nm 230utility first appeared in 231.Fx 4.6 . 232.Sh AUTHORS 233.An -nosplit 234The 235.Nm 236utility was written by 237.An S\(/oren Schmidt 238.Aq sos@FreeBSD.org . 239.Pp 240This manual page was written by 241.An S\(/oren Schmidt 242.Aq sos@FreeBSD.org . 243
