NAME
       aac -- Adaptec AdvancedRAID Controller driver

SYNOPSIS
       To  compile  this  driver into the kernel, place	the following lines in
       your kernel configuration file:

	     device pci
	     device aac
	     device aacp

	     To	compile	in debugging code:
	     options AAC_DEBUG=N

       Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at	boot time,  place  the
       following line in loader.conf(5):

	     aac_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION
       The  aac	driver provides	support	for the	Adaptec	AAC family of SCSI Ul-
       tra2, Ultra160, and Ultra320, SATA and SAS RAID controllers.

       Access to RAID containers is available via the /dev/aacd? device	nodes.
       The aacp	device enables the SCSI	pass-thru interface and	allows devices
       connected to the	card such as CD-ROMs  to  be  available	 via  the  CAM
       scsi(4)	subsystem.  Note that not all cards allow this interface to be
       enabled.

       The /dev/aac? device nodes provide access to the	 management  interface
       of  the	controller.   One node exists per installed card.  The aliases
       /dev/afa? and /dev/hpn? exist for compatibility with the	 Dell  and  HP
       versions	 of  management	 tools,	respectively.  If the aac_linux.ko and
       linux.ko	modules	are loaded, the	 Linux-compatible  ioctl(2)  interface
       for  the	 management  device will be enabled and	will allow Linux-based
       management applications to control the card.

FILES

       /dev/aacd?	    disk/container interface

DIAGNOSTICS
       Compiling with AAC_DEBUG	set to a number	between	0 and  3  will	enable
       increasingly verbose debug messages.

       The  adapter  can  send status and alert	messages asynchronously	to the
       driver.	These messages are printed on the system console, and are also
       queued for retrieval by a management application.

HISTORY
       The aac driver first appeared in	FreeBSD	4.3.

BUGS
       This driver is not compatible with Dell controllers that	 have  version
       1.x  firmware.	The firmware version is	the same as the	kernel version
       printed in the BIOS POST	and driver attach messages.

       The controller is not actually paused on	suspend/resume.

FreeBSD	13.2			 July 10, 2009				AAC(4)
