32.Dt CD 9
33.Os
34.Sh NAME
35.Nm cd
36.Nd CDROM driver for the CAM SCSI subsystem
37.Sh DESCRIPTION
38The
39.Nm
40device driver provides a read only interface for CDROM drives
41.Tn ( SCSI
42type 5)
43and WORM drives
44.Tn ( SCSI
45type 4)
46that support CDROM type commands.
47Some drives don't behave as the driver expects.  See the section
48QUIRKS for info on possible flags.
49.Sh QUIRKS
50Each
51.Tn CD-ROM
52device can have different interpretations of the
53.Tn SCSI
54spec.  This can lead to drives requiring special handling in the driver.  The
55following is a list of quirks that the driver recognize.
56.Bl -tag -width CD_Q_BCD_TRACKS
57.It Dv CD_Q_NO_TOUCH
58This flag tell the driver not to probe the drive at attach time to see if
59there is a disk in the drive and find out what size it is.  This flag is
60currently unimplemented in the CAM
61.Nm
62driver.
63.It Dv CD_Q_BCD_TRACKS
64This flag is for broken drives that return the track numbers in packed BCD
65instead of straight decimal.  If the drive seems to skip tracks
66(tracks 10-15 are skipped)
67then you have a drive that is in need of this flag.
68.It Dv CD_Q_NO_CHANGER
69This flag tells the driver that the device in question is not a changer.
70This is only necessary for a CDROM device with multiple luns that are not a
71part of a changer.
72.It Dv CD_Q_CHANGER
73This flag tells the driver that the given device is a multi-lun changer.
74In general, the driver will figure this out automatically when it sees a
75LUN greater than 0.  Setting this flag only has the effect of telling the
76driver to run the initial read capacity command for LUN 0 of the changer
77through the changer scheduling code.
