360 utility is designed to provide a way for users to access and control the
367 can cause a loss of data and/or system crashes if used improperly.
369 expert users are encouraged to exercise caution when using this command.
370 Novice users should stay away from this utility.
374 utility has a number of primary functions, many of which support an optional
376 A device identifier can take one of three forms:
379 Specify a device name and unit number combination, like "da5" or "cd3".
381 Specify a bus number and target id.
382 The bus number can be determined from
384 .Dq camcontrol devlist .
385 The lun defaults to 0.
387 Specify the bus, target and lun for a device.
391 The device identifier, if it is specified,
393 come immediately after the function name, and before any generic or
394 function-specific arguments.
399 arguments described below will override any device name or unit number
400 specified beforehand.
407 override a specified bus:target or bus:target:lun, however.
411 primary functions support these generic arguments:
414 SCSI command retry count.
415 In order for this to work, error recovery
419 Instruct the kernel to perform generic SCSI error recovery for the given
421 This is needed in order for the retry count
424 Other than retrying commands, the generic error recovery in
425 the code will generally attempt to spin up drives that are not spinning.
426 It may take some other actions, depending upon the sense code returned from
429 Specify the device type to operate on, e.g.\& "da", "cd".
430 .It Fl Q Ar task_attr
432 task attribute for the command, if it is a
435 This may be ordered, simple, head, or aca.
436 In most cases this is not needed.
437 The default is simple, which works with all
440 The task attribute may also be specified numerically.
442 SCSI command timeout in seconds.
443 This overrides the default timeout for
445 .It Fl u Ar unit_number
446 Specify the device unit number, e.g.\& "1", "5".
448 Be verbose, print out sense information for failed SCSI commands.
451 Primary command functions:
452 .Bl -tag -width periphlist
454 List all physical devices (logical units) attached to the CAM subsystem.
455 This also includes a list of peripheral drivers attached to each device.
458 argument, SCSI bus number, adapter name and unit numbers are printed as
460 On the other hand, with the
462 argument, only the bus adapter, and unit information will be printed, and
463 device information will be omitted.
465 List all peripheral drivers attached to a given physical device (logical
468 Send the SCSI test unit ready (0x00) command to the given device.
471 utility will report whether the device is ready or not.
473 Send a SCSI inquiry command (0x12) to a device.
476 will print out the standard inquiry data, device serial number, and
477 transfer rate information.
478 The user can specify that only certain types of
479 inquiry data be printed:
482 Get the standard inquiry data.
484 Print out the serial number.
485 If this flag is the only one specified,
487 will not print out "Serial Number" before the value returned by the drive.
488 This is to aid in script writing.
490 Print out transfer rate information.
493 Send a ATA identify command (0xec) to a device.
495 Send the SCSI REPORT LUNS (0xA0) command to the given device.
498 will print out the list of logical units (LUNs) supported by the target device.
499 There are a couple of options to modify the output:
502 Just print out a count of LUNs, not the actual LUN numbers.
504 Just print out the LUNs, and do not print out the count.
505 .It Fl r Ar reporttype
506 Specify the type of report to request from the target:
507 .Bl -tag -width 012345678
509 Return the default report.
513 Most targets will support this report if they support the REPORT LUNS
516 Return only well known LUNs.
518 Return all available LUNs.
523 will try to print out LUN numbers in a reasonable format.
524 It can understand the peripheral, flat, LUN and extended LUN formats.
526 Send the SCSI READ CAPACITY command to the given device and display
528 If the device is larger than 2TB, the SCSI READ CAPACITY (16) service
529 action will be sent to obtain the full size of the device.
532 will print out the last logical block of the device, and the blocksize of
534 To modify the output format, use the following options:
537 Just print out the blocksize, not the last block or device size.
538 This cannot be used with
543 Print out the device size in human readable (base 2, 1K == 1024) format.
546 and cannot be used with
551 Print out the device size in human readable (base 10, 1K == 1000) format.
553 Skip sending the SCSI READ CAPACITY (10) command.
554 Send only the SCSI READ CAPACITY (16) service action and report
556 When the two do not match, a quirk is needed to resolve the ambiguity.
558 Print out the number of blocks in the device instead of the last logical
561 Quiet, print out the numbers only (separated by a comma if
567 Print out the last logical block or the size of the device only, and omit
571 Note that this command only displays the information, it does not update
572 the kernel data structures.
575 reprobe subcommand to do that.
577 Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
580 Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
583 Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
584 start bit set and the load/eject bit set.
586 Send the SCSI Start/Stop Unit (0x1B) command to the given device with the
587 start bit cleared and the load/eject bit set.
589 Tell the kernel to scan all buses in the system (with the
591 argument), the given bus (XPT_SCAN_BUS), bus:target:lun or device
592 (XPT_SCAN_LUN) for new devices or devices that have gone away.
594 may specify a scan of all buses, a single bus, or a lun.
596 on a target is not supported.
598 If a device is specified by peripheral name and unit number, for instance
599 da4, it may only be rescanned if that device currently exists in the CAM EDT
600 (Existing Device Table).
601 If the device is no longer there (see
604 you must use the bus:target:lun form to rescan it.
606 Tell the kernel to refresh the information about the device and
607 notify the upper layer,
609 This includes sending the SCSI READ CAPACITY command and updating
610 the disk size visible to the rest of the system.
612 Tell the kernel to reset all buses in the system (with the
614 argument), the given bus (XPT_RESET_BUS) by issuing a SCSI bus
615 reset for that bus, or to reset the given bus:target:lun or device
616 (XPT_RESET_DEV), typically by issuing a BUS DEVICE RESET message after
617 connecting to that device.
618 Note that this can have a destructive impact
623 READ DEFECT DATA (10) command (0x37) or the
625 READ DEFECT DATA (12) command (0xB7) to the given device, and
626 print out any combination of: the total number of defects, the primary
627 defect list (PLIST), and the grown defect list (GLIST).
630 Specify the requested format of the defect list.
631 The format argument is
633 Most drives support the physical sector format.
635 support the logical block format.
636 Many drives, if they do not support the
637 requested format, return the data in an alternate format, along with sense
638 information indicating that the requested data format is not supported.
642 attempts to detect this, and print out whatever format the drive returns.
643 If the drive uses a non-standard sense code to report that it does not
644 support the requested format,
646 will probably see the error as a failure to complete the request.
648 The format options are:
651 Print out the list as logical blocks.
652 This is limited to 32-bit block sizes, and isn't supported by many modern
655 Print out the list as logical blocks.
656 This option uses a 64-bit block size.
658 Print out the list in bytes from index format.
660 Print out the list in extended bytes from index format.
661 The extended format allows for ranges of blocks to be printed.
663 Print out the list in physical sector format.
664 Most drives support this format.
666 Print out the list in extended physical sector format.
667 The extended format allows for ranges of blocks to be printed.
670 Print out the grown defect list.
671 This is a list of bad blocks that have
672 been remapped since the disk left the factory.
674 Print out the primary defect list.
675 This is the list of defects that were present in the factory.
677 When printing status information with
679 only print the number of defects.
681 Just print the number of defects, not the list of defects.
683 Specify the starting offset into the defect list.
684 This implies using the
686 READ DEFECT DATA (12) command, as the 10 byte version of the command
687 doesn't support the address descriptor index field.
688 Not all drives support the 12 byte command, and some drives that support
689 the 12 byte command don't support the address descriptor index field.
691 Print out defects in hexadecimal (base 16) form instead of base 10 form.
700 will print out the number of defects given in the READ DEFECT DATA header
701 returned from the drive.
702 Some drives will report 0 defects if neither the primary or grown defect
705 Allows the user to display and optionally edit a SCSI mode page.
707 page formats are located in
708 .Pa /usr/share/misc/scsi_modes .
709 This can be overridden by specifying a different file in the
711 environment variable.
714 command takes several arguments:
717 Disable block descriptors for mode sense.
719 Displays mode page data in binary format.
721 This flag allows the user to edit values in the mode page.
723 either edit mode page values with the text editor pointed to by his
725 environment variable, or supply mode page values via standard input, using
728 uses to display mode page values.
729 The editor will be invoked if
731 detects that standard input is terminal.
733 Lists all available mode pages.
734 If specified more then once, also lists subpages.
735 .It Fl m Ar page[,subpage]
736 This specifies the number of the mode page and optionally subpage the user
737 would like to view and/or edit.
738 This argument is mandatory unless
742 This allows the user to specify the page control field.
744 .Bl -tag -width xxx -compact
756 Allows the user to send an arbitrary ATA or SCSI CDB to any device.
759 function requires the
761 argument to specify SCSI CDB or the
763 argument to specify ATA Command Block registers values.
764 Other arguments are optional, depending on
766 The command and data specification syntax is documented
769 NOTE: If the CDB specified causes data to be transferred to or from the
770 SCSI device in question, you MUST specify either
775 .It Fl a Ar cmd Op args
776 This specifies the content of 12 ATA Command Block registers (command,
777 features, lba_low, lba_mid, lba_high, device, lba_low_exp, lba_mid_exp.
778 lba_high_exp, features_exp, sector_count, sector_count_exp).
779 .It Fl c Ar cmd Op args
780 This specifies the SCSI CDB.
781 SCSI CDBs may be 6, 10, 12 or 16 bytes.

786 .It Fl i Ar len Ar fmt
787 This specifies the amount of data to read, and how it should be displayed.
791 bytes of data will be read from the device and written to standard output.
792 .It Fl o Ar len Ar fmt Op args
793 This specifies the amount of data to be written to a device, and the data
794 that is to be written.
798 bytes of data will be read from standard input and written to the device.
800 This specifies that 11 result ATA Command Block registers should be displayed
801 (status, error, lba_low, lba_mid, lba_high, device, lba_low_exp, lba_mid_exp,
802 lba_high_exp, sector_count, sector_count_exp), and how.
805 11 result registers will be written to standard output in hex.
808 Allows the user to send an arbitrary Serial
809 Management Protocol (SMP) command to a device.
812 function requires the
814 argument to specify the SMP request to be sent, and the
816 argument to specify the format of the SMP response.
817 The syntax for the SMP request and response arguments is documented in
820 Note that SAS adapters that support SMP passthrough (at least the currently
821 known adapters) do not accept CRC bytes from the user in the request and do
822 not pass CRC bytes back to the user in the response.
823 Therefore users should not include the CRC bytes in the length of the
824 request and not expect CRC bytes to be returned in the response.
826 .It Fl r Ar len Ar fmt Op args
827 This specifies the size of the SMP request, without the CRC bytes, and the
832 bytes of data will be read from standard input and written as the SMP
834 .It Fl R Ar len Ar fmt Op args
835 This specifies the size of the buffer allocated for the SMP response, and
836 the SMP response format.
840 bytes of data will be allocated for the response and the response will be
841 written to standard output.
844 Allows the user to send the Serial Management Protocol (SMP) Report General
847 will display the data returned by the Report General command.
848 If the SMP target supports the long response format, the additional data
849 will be requested and displayed automatically.
852 Request the long response format only.
853 Not all SMP targets support the long response format.
856 to skip sending the initial report general request without the long bit set
857 and only issue a report general request with the long bit set.
860 Allows the user to issue the Serial Management Protocol (SMP) PHY Control
862 This function should be used with some caution, as it can render devices
863 inaccessible, and could potentially cause data corruption as well.
866 argument is required to specify the PHY to operate on.
869 Specify the PHY to operate on.
870 This argument is required.
872 Request the long request/response format.
873 Not all SMP targets support the long response format.
874 For the PHY Control command, this currently only affects whether the
875 request length is set to a value other than 0.
876 .It Fl o Ar operation
877 Specify a PHY control operation.
880 operation may be specified.
881 The operation may be specified numerically (in decimal, hexadecimal, or octal)
882 or one of the following operation names may be specified:
886 It is not necessary to specify this argument.
888 Send the LINK RESET command to the phy.
890 Send the HARD RESET command to the phy.
892 Send the DISABLE command to the phy.
893 Note that the LINK RESET or HARD RESET commands should re-enable the phy.
895 Send the CLEAR ERROR LOG command.
896 This clears the error log counters for the specified phy.
898 Send the CLEAR AFFILIATION command.
899 This clears the affiliation from the STP initiator port with the same SAS
900 address as the SMP initiator that requests the clear operation.
902 Send the TRANSMIT SATA PORT SELECTION SIGNAL command to the phy.
903 This will cause a SATA port selector to use the given phy as its active phy
904 and make the other phy inactive.
906 Send the CLEAR STP I_T NEXUS LOSS command to the PHY.
908 Send the SET ATTACHED DEVICE NAME command to the PHY.

980 Turn on CAM debugging printfs in the kernel.
981 This requires options CAMDEBUG
982 in your kernel config file.
983 WARNING: enabling debugging printfs currently
984 causes an EXTREME number of kernel printfs.
985 You may have difficulty
986 turning off the debugging printfs once they start, since the kernel will be
987 busy printing messages and unable to service other requests quickly.
990 function takes a number of arguments:
993 Enable CAM_DEBUG_INFO printfs.
995 Enable CAM_DEBUG_PERIPH printfs.
997 Enable CAM_DEBUG_TRACE printfs.
999 Enable CAM_DEBUG_SUBTRACE printfs.
1001 Enable CAM_DEBUG_XPT printfs.
1003 Enable CAM_DEBUG_CDB printfs.
1004 This will cause the kernel to print out the
1005 SCSI CDBs sent to the specified device(s).
1007 Enable CAM_DEBUG_PROBE printfs.
1009 Enable debugging for all devices.
1011 Turn off debugging for all devices
1012 .It bus Ns Op :target Ns Op :lun
1013 Turn on debugging for the given bus, target or lun.
1014 If the lun or target
1015 and lun are not specified, they are wildcarded.
1016 (i.e., just specifying a
1017 bus turns on debugging printfs for all devices on that bus.)
1020 Show or set the number of "tagged openings" or simultaneous transactions
1021 we attempt to queue to a particular device.
1024 command, with no command-specific arguments (i.e., only generic arguments)
1025 prints out the "soft" maximum number of transactions that can be queued to
1026 the device in question.
1027 For more detailed information, use the
1029 argument described below.
1032 Set the number of tags for the given device.
1033 This must be between the
1034 minimum and maximum number set in the kernel quirk table.
1036 most devices that support tagged queueing is a minimum of 2 and a maximum
1038 The minimum and maximum values for a given device may be
1039 determined by using the
1046 subcommand is described below.
1048 Be quiet, and do not report the number of tags.
1049 This is generally used when
1050 setting the number of tags.
1052 The verbose flag has special functionality for the
1057 to print out the tagged queueing related fields of the XPT_GDEV_TYPE CCB:
1060 This is the amount of capacity for transactions queued to a given device.
1062 This is the number of transactions currently queued to a device.
1064 This is the kernel queue space for transactions.
1065 This count usually mirrors
1066 dev_openings except during error recovery operations when
1067 the device queue is frozen (device is not allowed to receive
1068 commands), the number of dev_openings is reduced, or transaction
1069 replay is occurring.
1071 This is the number of transactions waiting in the kernel queue for capacity
1073 This number is usually zero unless error recovery is in
1076 The held count is the number of CCBs held by peripheral drivers that have
1077 either just been completed or are about to be released to the transport
1078 layer for service by a device.
1079 Held CCBs reserve capacity on a given
1082 This is the current "hard" minimum number of transactions that can be
1083 queued to a device at once.
1086 value above cannot go below this number.
1087 The default value for
1089 is 2, although it may be set higher or lower for various devices.
1091 This is the "hard" maximum number of transactions that can be queued to a
1095 value cannot go above this number.
1096 The default value for
1098 is 255, although it may be set higher or lower for various devices.
1102 Show or negotiate various communication parameters.
1103 Some controllers may
1104 not support setting or changing some of these values.
1106 Adaptec 174x controllers do not support changing a device's sync rate or
1111 will not attempt to set the parameter if the controller indicates that it
1112 does not support setting the parameter.
1113 To find out what the controller
1121 command is described below.
1122 Also, some controller drivers do not support
1123 setting negotiation parameters, even if the underlying controller supports
1124 negotiation changes.
1125 Some controllers, such as the Advansys wide
1126 controllers, support enabling and disabling synchronous negotiation for
1127 a device, but do not support setting the synchronous negotiation rate.
1130 Attempt to make the negotiation settings take effect immediately by sending
1131 a Test Unit Ready command to the device.
1133 Show or set current negotiation settings.
1134 This is the default.
1135 .It Fl D Ar enable|disable
1136 Enable or disable disconnection.
1140 Set the command delay offset.
1142 Be quiet, do not print anything.
1143 This is generally useful when you want to
1144 set a parameter, but do not want any status information.
1145 .It Fl R Ar syncrate
1146 Change the synchronization rate for a device.
1147 The sync rate is a floating
1148 point value specified in MHz.
1151 is a legal value, as is
1153 .It Fl T Ar enable|disable
1154 Enable or disable tagged queueing for a device.
1156 Show or set user negotiation settings.
1157 The default is to show or set
1158 current negotiation settings.
1160 The verbose switch has special meaning for the
1165 to print out the contents of a Path Inquiry (XPT_PATH_INQ) CCB sent to the

1168 Specify the bus width to negotiate with a device.
1171 The only useful values to specify are 8, 16, and 32
1173 The controller must support the bus width in question in order for
1174 the setting to take effect.
1177 In general, sync rate and offset settings will not take effect for a
1178 device until a command has been sent to the device.
1181 switch above will automatically send a Test Unit Ready to the device so
1182 negotiation parameters will take effect.

1194 disks that do not really need to be low-level formatted.
1196 relatively few scenarios that call for low-level formatting a disk.
1198 low-level formatting a disk is to initialize the disk after changing
1199 its physical sector size.
1200 Another reason for low-level formatting a disk
1201 is to revive the disk if you are getting "medium format corrupted" errors
1202 from the disk in response to read and write requests.
1204 Some disks take longer than others to format.
1205 Users should specify a
1206 timeout long enough to allow the format to complete.
1208 timeout is 3 hours, which should be long enough for most disks.
1210 disks will complete a format operation in a very short period of time
1211 (on the order of 5 minutes or less).
1212 This is often because the drive

2169 This allows managing devices that conform to the
2171 Zoned Block Commands (ZBC) and
2173 Zoned ATA Command Set (ZAC)
2175 Devices using these command sets are usually hard drives using Shingled
2176 Magnetic Recording (SMR).
2177 There are three types of SMR drives:
2180 Drive Managed drives look and act just like a standard random access block
2181 device, but underneath, the drive reads and writes the bulk of its capacity
2183 Sequential writes will yield better performance, but writing sequentially
2186 Host Aware drives expose the underlying zone layout via
2190 commands and allow the host to manage the zone conditions.
2191 The host is not required to manage the zones on the drive, though.
2192 Sequential writes will yield better performance in Sequential Write
2193 Preferred zones, but the host can write randomly in those zones.
2195 Host Managed drives expose the underlying zone layout via
2200 The host is required to access the zones according to the rules described
2202 Any commands that violate the rules will be returned with an error.
2205 SMR drives are divided into zones (typically in the range of 256MB each)
2206 that fall into three general categories:
2209 These are also known as Non Write Pointer zones.
2210 These zones can be randomly written without an unexpected performance penalty.
2211 .It Sequential Preferred
2212 These zones should be written sequentially starting at the write pointer
2214 They may be written randomly.
2215 Writes that do not conform to the zone layout may be significantly slower

2218 These zones must be written sequentially.

2249 For the Open, Close, Finish, and Reset Write Pointer operations, apply the
2250 operation to all zones on the drive.
2252 Specify the starting LBA.
2253 For the Report Zones command, this tells the drive to report starting with
2254 the zone that starts at the given LBA.
2255 For the other commands, this allows the user to identify the zone requested
2256 by its starting LBA.
2257 The LBA may be specified in decimal, hexadecimal or octal notation.
2259 For the Report Zones command, specify a subset of zones to report.
