What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/isci_id Date: June 2011 Contact: Dave Jiang Description: This file contains the enumerated host ID for the Intel SCU controller. The Intel(R) C600 Series Chipset SATA/SAS Storage Control Unit embeds up to two 4-port controllers in a single PCI device. The controllers are enumerated in order which usually means the lowest number scsi_host corresponds with the first controller, but this association is not guaranteed. The 'isci_id' attribute unambiguously identifies the controller index: '0' for the first controller, '1' for the second. What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/acciopath_status Date: November 2013 Contact: Stephen M. Cameron Description: This file contains the current status of the "SSD Smart Path" feature of HP Smart Array RAID controllers using the hpsa driver. SSD Smart Path, when enabled permits the driver to send i/o requests directly to physical devices that are part of a logical drive, bypassing the controllers firmware RAID stack for a performance advantage when possible. A value of '1' indicates the feature is enabled, and the controller may use the direct i/o path to physical devices. A value of zero means the feature is disabled and the controller may not use the direct i/o path to physical devices. This setting is controller wide, affecting all configured logical drives on the controller. This file is readable and writable. What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/link_power_management_policy Date: Oct, 2007 KernelVersion: v2.6.24 Contact: linux-ide@vger.kernel.org Description: (RW) This parameter allows the user to read and set the link (interface) power management. There are four possible options: min_power: Tell the controller to try to make the link use the least possible power when possible. This may sacrifice some performance due to increased latency when coming out of lower power states. max_performance: Generally, this means no power management. Tell the controller to have performance be a priority over power management. medium_power: Tell the controller to enter a lower power state when possible, but do not enter the lowest power state, thus improving latency over min_power setting. med_power_with_dipm: Identical to the existing medium_power setting except that it enables dipm (device initiated power management) on top, which makes it match the Windows IRST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) driver settings. This setting is also close to min_power, except that: a) It does not use host-initiated slumber mode, but it does allow device-initiated slumber b) It does not enable low power device sleep mode (DevSlp). What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/em_message What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/em_message_type Date: Jun, 2008 KernelVersion: v2.6.27 Contact: linux-ide@vger.kernel.org Description: em_message: (RW) Enclosure management support. For the LED protocol, writes and reads correspond to the LED message format as defined in the AHCI spec. The user must turn sw_activity (under `/sys/block/*/device/`) OFF it they wish to control the activity LED via the em_message file. em_message_type: (RO) Displays the current enclosure management protocol that is being used by the driver (for eg. LED, SAF-TE, SES-2, SGPIO etc). What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/ahci_port_cmd What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/ahci_host_caps What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/ahci_host_cap2 Date: Mar, 2010 KernelVersion: v2.6.35 Contact: linux-ide@vger.kernel.org Description: [to be documented] What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/ahci_host_version Date: Mar, 2010 KernelVersion: v2.6.35 Contact: linux-ide@vger.kernel.org Description: (RO) Display the version of the AHCI spec implemented by the host. What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/em_buffer Date: Apr, 2010 KernelVersion: v2.6.35 Contact: linux-ide@vger.kernel.org Description: (RW) Allows access to AHCI EM (enclosure management) buffer directly if the host supports EM. For eg. the AHCI driver supports SGPIO EM messages but the SATA/AHCI specs do not define the SGPIO message format of the EM buffer. Different hardware(HW) vendors may have different definitions. With the em_buffer attribute, this issue can be solved by allowing HW vendors to provide userland drivers and tools for their SGPIO initiators. What: /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/em_message_supported Date: Oct, 2009 KernelVersion: v2.6.39 Contact: linux-ide@vger.kernel.org Description: (RO) Displays supported enclosure management message types.
