Just add a call to camcontrol early in the rc process, prior to
fsck starting up. camcontrol is on the root filesystem. You can
also modify the ahd driver to tell cam that it can only handle 32
commands per-target.
In aic79xx_osm.c change:
/*
* Construct our SIM entry
*/
sim = cam_sim_alloc(ahd_action, ahd_poll, "ahd", ahd,
device_get_unit(ahd->dev_softc),
1, /*XXX*/256, devq);
^^^
to 32.
The XXX is there since this controller can really handle 512
transactions per-device, but CAM is still using a byte to hold
the max tag depth field and doesn't currently differentiate between
packetized and non-packetized targets. non-packetized, tagged queuing
capable devices can only handle 256 tags.
