28.Os
29.Sh NAME
30.Nm aac
31.Nd Adaptec AdvancedRAID Controller driver
32.Sh SYNOPSIS
33To compile this driver into the kernel,
34place the following lines in your
35kernel configuration file:
36.Bd -ragged -offset indent
37.Cd device pci
38.Cd device aac
39.Cd device aacp
40.Pp
41To compile in debugging code:
42.Cd options AAC_DEBUG
43.Ed
44.Pp
45Alternatively, to load the driver as a
46module at boot time, place the following line in
47.Xr loader.conf 5 :
48.Bd -literal -offset indent
49aac_load="YES"
50.Ed
51.Sh DESCRIPTION
52The
53.Nm
54driver provides support for the Adaptec AAC family of SCSI Ultra2, Ultra160,
55and Ultra320, SATA and SAS RAID controllers.
56.Pp
57Access to RAID containers is available via the
58.Pa /dev/aacd?
59device nodes.
60The
61.Nm aacp
62device enables the SCSI pass-through interface and allows devices connected
63to the card such as CD-ROMs to be available via the CAM
64.Xr scsi 4
65subsystem.
66Note that not all cards allow this interface to be enabled.
67.Pp
68The
69.Pa /dev/aac?
70device nodes provide access to the management interface of the controller.
71One node exists per installed card.
72The aliases
73.Pa /dev/afa?
74and
75.Pa /dev/hpn?
76exist for compatibility with the Dell and HP versions of management tools,
77respectively.
78.\"If the kernel is compiled with the
79.\".Dv COMPAT_LINUX
80.\"option, or the
81.\".Pa aac_linux.ko
82.\"and
83.\".Pa linux.ko
84.\"modules are loaded, the
85.\"Linux-compatible
86.\".Xr ioctl 2
87.\"interface for the management device will be enabled and will allow
88.\"Linux-based management applications to control the card.
89.Sh LOADER TUNABLES
90.Bl -tag -width indent
91.It Va hw.aac.msi.enable
92By default, the driver will use MSI if it is supported.
93This behavior can be turned off by setting this tunable to 0.

278Compiling with

280will enable debug messages.
281.Pp
282The adapter can send status and alert messages asynchronously
283to the driver.
284These messages are printed on the system console,
285and are also queued for retrieval by a management application.

299.Sh BUGS
300This driver is not compatible with Dell controllers that have version 1.x
301firmware.
302The firmware version is the same as the kernel version printed in the BIOS
303POST and driver attach messages.
304.Pp
305The controller is not actually paused on suspend/resume.
