8.Os
9.Sh NAME
10.Nm scsi_address
11.Nd SCSI address structure
12.Sh SYNOPSIS
13.In sys/scsi/scsi.h
14.Sh INTERFACE LEVEL
15illumos architecture specific (illumos DDI)
16.Sh DESCRIPTION
17A
18.Vt scsi_address
19structure defines the addressing components for a
20.Sy SCSI
21target device.
22The address of the target device is separated into two components:
23target number and logical unit number.
24The two addressing components are used to uniquely identify any type of
25.Sy SCSI
26device; however, most devices can be addressed with the target component of the
27address.
28.Pp
29In the case where only the target component is used to address the device, the
30logical unit should be set to
31.Sy 0 . If the
32.Sy SCSI
33target device supports logical units, then the HBA must interpret the
34logical units field of the data structure.
35.Pp
36The
37.Sy pkt_address
38member of a
39.Xr scsi_pkt 9S
40is initialized by
41.Xr scsi_init_pkt 9F .
42.Ss Complex Addressing
43Drivers may set the flag
44.Dv SCSI_HBA_ADDR_COMPLEX
45in the
46.Fa hba_flags
47argument to
48.Xr scsi_hba_attach_setup 9F .
49When the flag is set, this structure must be treated as opaque.
50Instead of storing a traditional target and LUN, the address is treated
51as the string form of a unit address.
52In addition, rather than storing a pointer to the
53.Xr scsi_hba_tran 9S
54structure, the address structure can store any arbitrary pointer through
55the
56.Xr scsi_device_hba_private_get 9F
57and
58.Xr scsi_device_hba_private_set 9F
59functions.
60.Sh STRUCTURE MEMBERS
61.Bd -literal
62scsi_hba_tran_t   *a_hba_tran;  /* Transport vectors for the SCSI bus */
63ushort_t          a_target;     /* SCSI target id */
64uchar_t           a_lun;        /* SCSI logical unit */
65.Ed
66.Pp
67.Fa a_hba_tran
68is a pointer to the controlling
69.Sy HBA 's
70transport vector
71structure.
72The
73.Sy SCSA
74interface uses this field to pass any transport
75requests from the
76.Sy SCSI
77target device drivers to the
78.Sy HBA
79driver.
80.Pp
81.Fa a_target
82is the target component of the
83.Sy SCSI
84address
85.Pp
86.Fa a_lun
87is the logical unit component of the
88.Sy SCSI
89address.
90The logical unit is used to further distinguish a
91.Sy SCSI
92target device that
93supports multiple logical units from one that does not.
94.Pp
95If the flag,
96.Dv SCSI_HBA_ADDR_COMPLEX
97was set, then the driver
98.Em must not
99dereference any of these fields, the structure contents will have
100changed and should be considered opaque.
