5Description: Interface for making ib_srp connect to a new target.
6 One can request ib_srp to connect to a new target by writing
7 a comma-separated list of login parameters to this sysfs
8 attribute. The supported parameters are:
9 * id_ext, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the eight
10 byte identifier extension in the 16-byte SRP target port
11 identifier. The target port identifier is sent by ib_srp
12 to the target in the SRP_LOGIN_REQ request.
13 * ioc_guid, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the eight
14 byte I/O controller GUID portion of the 16-byte target port
15 identifier.
16 * dgid, a 32-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
17 destination GID.
18 * pkey, a four-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
19 InfiniBand partition key.
20 * service_id, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
21 InfiniBand service ID used to establish communication with
22 the SRP target. How to find out the value of the service ID
23 is specified in the documentation of the SRP target.
24 * max_sect, a decimal number specifying the maximum number of
25 512-byte sectors to be transferred via a single SCSI command.
26 * max_cmd_per_lun, a decimal number specifying the maximum
27 number of outstanding commands for a single LUN.
28 * io_class, a hexadecimal number specifying the SRP I/O class.
29 Must be either 0xff00 (rev 10) or 0x0100 (rev 16a). The I/O
30 class defines the format of the SRP initiator and target
31 port identifiers.
32 * initiator_ext, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
33 identifier extension portion of the SRP initiator port
34 identifier. This data is sent by the initiator to the target
35 in the SRP_LOGIN_REQ request.
36 * cmd_sg_entries, a number in the range 1..255 that specifies
37 the maximum number of data buffer descriptors stored in the
38 SRP_CMD information unit itself. With allow_ext_sg=0 the
39 parameter cmd_sg_entries defines the maximum S/G list length
40 for a single SRP_CMD, and commands whose S/G list length
41 exceeds this limit after S/G list collapsing will fail.
42 * allow_ext_sg, whether ib_srp is allowed to include a partial
43 memory descriptor list in an SRP_CMD instead of the entire
44 list. If a partial memory descriptor list has been included
45 in an SRP_CMD the remaining memory descriptors are
46 communicated from initiator to target via an additional RDMA
47 transfer. Setting allow_ext_sg to 1 increases the maximum
48 amount of data that can be transferred between initiator and
49 target via a single SCSI command. Since not all SRP target
50 implementations support partial memory descriptor lists the
51 default value for this option is 0.
52 * sg_tablesize, a number in the range 1..2048 specifying the
53 maximum S/G list length the SCSI layer is allowed to pass to
54 ib_srp. Specifying a value that exceeds cmd_sg_entries is
55 only safe with partial memory descriptor list support enabled
56 (allow_ext_sg=1).
