ARECA FIRMWARE SPEC
===================
Usage of IOP331 adapter
=======================
(All In/Out is in IOP331's view)
1. Message 0
------------
- InitThread message and return code
2. Doorbell is used for RS-232 emulation
----------------------------------------
inDoorBell
bit0
data in ready
zDRIVER DATA WRITE OK)
bit1
data out has been read
(DRIVER DATA READ OK)
outDooeBell:
bit0
data out ready
(IOP331 DATA WRITE OK)
bit1
data in has been read
(IOP331 DATA READ OK)
3. Index Memory Usage
---------------------
============ ==========================================
offset 0xf00 for RS232 out (request buffer)
offset 0xe00 for RS232 in (scratch buffer)
offset 0xa00 for inbound message code message_rwbuffer
(driver send to IOP331)
offset 0xa00 for outbound message code message_rwbuffer
(IOP331 send to driver)
============ ==========================================
4. RS-232 emulation
-------------------
Currently 128 byte buffer is used:
============ =====================
1st uint32_t Data length (1--124)
Byte 4--127 Max 124 bytes of data
============ =====================
5. PostQ
--------
All SCSI Command must be sent through postQ:
(inbound queue port)
Request frame must be 32 bytes aligned:
#bit27--bit31
flag for post ccb
#bit0--bit26
real address (bit27--bit31) of post arcmsr_cdb
===== ===================
bit31 == ===============
0 256 bytes frame
1 512 bytes frame
== ===============
bit30 == ==============
0 normal request
1 BIOS request
== ==============
bit29 reserved
bit28 reserved
bit27 reserved
===== ===================
(outbount queue port)
Request reply:
#bit27--bit31
flag for reply
#bit0--bit26
real address (bit27--bit31) of reply arcmsr_cdb
===== =======================================================
bit31 must be 0 (for this type of reply)
bit30 reserved for BIOS handshake
bit29 reserved
bit28 == ===================================================
0 no error, ignore AdapStatus/DevStatus/SenseData
1 Error, error code in AdapStatus/DevStatus/SenseData
== ===================================================
bit27 reserved
===== =======================================================
6. BIOS request
---------------
All BIOS request is the same with request from PostQ
Except:
Request frame is sent from configuration space:
============ ==========================
offset: 0x78 Request Frame (bit30 == 1)
offset: 0x18 writeonly to generate
IRQ to IOP331
============ ==========================
Completion of request::
(bit30 == 0, bit28==err flag)

RS-232 Interface for Areca Raid Controller
==========================================
The low level command interface is exclusive with VT100 terminal
1. Sequence of command execution
--------------------------------
(A) Header
3 bytes sequence (0x5E, 0x01, 0x61)
(B) Command block
variable length of data including length,
command code, data and checksum byte
(C) Return data
variable length of data
2. Command block
----------------
(A) 1st byte
command block length (low byte)
(B) 2nd byte
command block length (high byte)
.. Note:: command block length shouldn't > 2040 bytes,
length excludes these two bytes
(C) 3rd byte
command code
(D) 4th and following bytes
variable length data bytes
depends on command code
(E) last byte
checksum byte (sum of 1st byte until last data byte)
3. Command code and associated data
-----------------------------------
The following are command code defined in raid controller Command
code 0x10--0x1? are used for system level management,
no password checking is needed and should be implemented in separate
well controlled utility and not for end user access.
Command code 0x20--0x?? always check the password,
password must be entered to enable these command::
