DESCRIPTION

     The osiop driver provides support for the Symbios/NCR 53C710 SCSI con-
     troller chip.

     For the Symbios/NCR 53C700 SCSI host adapters, use the oosiop(4) driver.

     For the Symbios/NCR 53C8xx PCI SCSI host adapters, use the siop(4) or
     esiop(4) driver.


CONFIGURATION

     The osiop driver supports the following flags for use in config(1) files:

     bits 0-7:   disable disconnect/reselect for the corresponding SCSI target
     bits 8-15:  disable synchronous negotiation for SCSI target
     bits 16:    disable DMA interrupts

     "Target" is synonymous with SCSI ID number.

     Note that SCSI tape drives should be allowed to perform disconnect/rese-
     lect or performance will suffer.

HISTORY

     osiop driver first appeared in NetBSD 1.6.

     The original NCR 53C710 driver appeared in NetBSD 1.0 amiga port, and
     Izumi Tsutsui <tsutsui@NetBSD.org> modified the driver and made it
     machine-independent.
