- SCSI address. The Hexadecimal Representation of the unique
- address (0-31) assigned to an SCSI device. This address would
- normally be assigned and set in the SCSI device during system
- installation.
-
- SCSI ID. The bit-significant representation of the SCSI address
- referring to one of the signal lines DB(31-0).
-
- 4. Physical Characteristics
-
- This section contains the physical definition of an alternative
- cableing for 16 bit and 32 bit data paths on SCSI-2 devices. The connectors,
- cables, signals, terminators, and bus timing values needed to implement the
- interface are covered.
-
- 4.1. Physical Description
-
- SCSI devices are daisy-chained together using a common 68-conductor P cable
- or a 110-conductor L cable. Both ends of each cable are terminated. All
- signals are common between all SCSI devices on the P cable and the L cable.
- Various width SCSI devices may be mixed.
-
- Physical devices with P cable connectors shall connect the low data byte
- (DB0-DB7,P) to the P connector. The high data byte (DB8-DB15,P1) may be
- connected to the P connector. Physical devices with L cable connectors shall
- connect the low data byte (DB0-DB7,P) to the L connector. The three high data
- bytes (DB8-DB15,P1,DB16-DB24,P2,DB25-DB32) may be connected to the L connector.
-
- Two driver/receiver alternatives are specified:
- (1) Single-ended drivers and receivers, which allow a maximum cable length
- of six meters (primarily for connection within a cabinet).
- (2) Differential drivers and receivers, which allow a maximum cable length
- of 25 meters (primarily for connection outside of a cabinet).
-
- The A/B cable and P/L cable alternatives are mutually exclusive within a
- system. Physical devices with A cable connectors may be attached to P cables
- or L cables. Physical devices with P cable connectors may be attached
- to L cables. Physical devices with B cable connectors shall not be attached
- to P or L cables. Physical devices with P and L cable connectors shall not be
- attached to A or A/B cables.
-
- The single-ended and differential alternatives are mutually exclusive within
- a system.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: Use of single-ended drivers and receivers with the fast
- synchronous data transfer option is not recommended.
-
- 4.2. Cable Requirements
-
- An ideal impedance match with cable terminators implies a cable
- characteristic impedance of 132 ohms (singled-ended option) or 122 ohms
- (differential option). The cable characteristic impedance shall be no less
- than 90 ohms and no greater than 140 ohms. It is recommended that the cable
- characteristic impedance be greater than 100 ohms for all cable types. See
- 4.2.3 for cable requirements when implementing the fast synchronous data
- transfer option.
-
- A minimum conductor size of 0.08042 square mm (28 AWG) should be used to
- minimize noise effects and ensure proper distribution of terminator power.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTES:
- (1) To minimize discontinuities and signal reflections, cables of different
- impedances should not be used in the same bus. Implementations may require
- trade-offs in shielding effectiveness, cable length, the number of loads,
- transfer rates, and cost to achieve satisfactory system operation.
- (2) To minimize discontinuities due to local impedance variation, a flat
- cable should be spaced at least 1.27 mm (0.050 in) from other cables, any
- other conductor, or the cable itself when the cable is folded.
- (3) Regulatory agencies may require use of larger wire size.
-
- 4.2.1. Single-Ended Cable
-
- A 68-conductor flat cable or 34-signal twisted-pair cable shall be used for
- the P cable. A 110-conductor flat cable or 55-signal twisted-pair cable shall
- be used for the L cable. The maximum cumulative cable length shall be 6.0
- meters. If twisted-pair cables are used, then twisted pairs in the cable shall
- be wired to physically opposing contacts in the connector.
-
- A stub length of no more than 0.1 meters is allowed off the mainline
- interconnection within any connected equipment or from any connected point.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: Stub clustering should be avoided. Stubs should be
- spaced at least 0.3 meters apart.
-
- SCSI bus termination shall be at each end of the cable and may be internal
- to the SCSI devices that are at the ends of the cable.
-
- 4.2.2. Differential Cable
-
- A 68-conductor flat cable or 34-signal twisted-pair cable shall be used for
- the P cable. A 110-conductor flat cable or 55-signal twisted-pair cable shall
- be used for the L cable. The maximum cumulative cable length shall be 25
- meters. If twisted-pair cables are used, then twisted pairs in the cable shall
- be wired to physically opposing contacts in the connector.
-
- A stub length of no more than 0.2 meters is allowed off the mainline
- interconnection within any connected equipment or from any connected point.
-
- SCSI bus termination shall be at each end of the cable and may be internal
- to the SCSI devices that are at the ends of the cable.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: The use of twisted pair cable (either twisted-flat or
- discrete wire twisted pairs) is strongly recommended. Without twisted
- pairs, even at slow data rates and very short distances, crosstalk between
- adjacent signals causes spurious pulses with differential signals.
-
- 4.2.3. Cable Requirements for Fast Synchronous Data Transfer
-
- In systems which use the fast synchronous data transfer option (see 4.8),
- the P and L cables should meet the conductor size recommendation in 4.2. The
- cable should have an overall shield suitable for termination in a shielded
- connector.
-
- In such systems, the cables shall have the following electrical
- characteristics:
- Characteristic Impedance: 90 to 132 ohms
- Signal Attenuation: 0.095 dB maximum per meter at 5 MHz
- Pair-to-Pair Propagation Delay Delta: 0.20 ns maximum per meter
- DC Resistance: 0.230 ohms maximum per meter at 20 degrees C
-
-
- 4.3. Connector Requirements
-
- Two types of connectors are defined: nonshielded and shielded. The
- nonshielded connectors are typically used for in-cabinet applications.
- Shielded connectors are typically used for external applications where
- electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electrostatic discharge (ESD)
- protection may be required. Either type of connector may be used with the
- single-ended or differential drivers.
-
- 4.3.1. Nonshielded Connector Requirements
-
- One nonshielded connector is specified for the P and L cables.
-
- 4.3.1.1. Nonshielded Connector - P Cable and L Cable
-
- The nonshielded high-density SCSI device connector for the P (Figure 4-1)
- shall be a 68-conductor connector consisting of two rows of 34 female contacts
- with adjacent contacts 1.27 mm (0.05 in) apart. The nonshielded high-density
- SCSI device connector for the L (Figure 4-1) shall be a 110-conductor connector
- consisting of two rows of 55 female contacts with adjacent contacts 1.27 mm
- (0.05 in) apart. The nonmating portion of the connector is shown for reference
- only.
-
- The nonshielded high-density cable connector for the P (Figure 4-2) shall be
- a 68-conductor connector consisting of two rows of 34 male contacts with
- adjacent contacts 1.27 mm (0.05 in) apart. The nonshielded high-density cable
- connector for the L (Figure 4-2) shall be a 110-conductor connector consisting
- of two rows of 55 male contacts with adjacent contacts 1.27 mm (0.05 in) apart.
- The nonmating portion of the connector is shown for reference only.
-
- 4.3.2. Shielded Connector Requirements
-
- One shielded connector is specified for the P and L cables. The connector
- shielding system should provide a dc resistance of less than 10 milliohms from
- the cable shield at its termination point to the SCSI device enclosure.
-
- In order to support daisy-chain connections, SCSI devices that use shielded
- connectors should provide two shielded device connectors on the device
- enclosure. These two connectors may be wired "one-to-one" with a stub to the
- SCSI device's drivers and receivers provided the maximum stub length is not
- violated. Alternatively, two cables may be run from the two shielded
- connectors to the drivers and receivers so that the maximum stub length is not
- violated. The length of the cable within the device enclosure is included
- when calculating the total cable length of the SCSI bus.
-
- 4.3.2.1. Shielded Connector - P Cable and L Cable
-
- The shielded high-density SCSI device connector for the P (Figure 4-3) is a
- 68-conductor connector consisting of two rows of 34 female contacts with
- adjacent contacts 1.27 mm (0.05 in) apart. The shielded high-density SCSI
- device connector for the L (Figure 4-3) is a 110-conductor connector consisting
- of two rows of 55 female contacts with adjacent contacts 1.27 mm (0.05 in)
- apart. The nonmating portion of the connector is shown for reference only.
-
- The shielded high-density cable connector for the P (Figure 4-4) is a
- 68-conductor connector consisting of two rows of 34 male contacts with adjacent
- contacts 1.27 mm (0.05 in) apart. The shielded high-density cable connector
- for the L (Figure 4-4) is a 110-conductor connector consisting of two rows of
- 55 male contacts with adjacent contacts 1.27 mm (0.05 in) apart. The nonmating
- portion of the connector is shown for reference only.

- Table 4-1 defines which of the other four tables to use and which set of
- contact assignments to use.

-
- 4.4. Electrical Description
-
- For the measurements in this section, SCSI bus termination is assumed to be
- external to the SCSI device. See 4.4.1 for the terminating requirements for
- the RESERVED lines. SCSI devices may have the provision for allowing optional
- internal termination.
-
- 4.4.1. Single-Ended Alternative
-
- All signals not defined as RESERVED, GROUND, OPEN, or TERMPWR shall be
- terminated at both ends of the cable. The implementor may choose one of the
- following two methods to terminate each end (see Figure 4-5):
-
- (1) The termination of each signal shall consist of 220 ohms (+_5%) to the
- TERMPWR line and 330 ohms (+_5%) to ground. Using resistors with +_1%
- tolerance improves noise margins.
- (2) The termination of each signal shall meet these requirements:
- (a) The terminators shall each supply a characteristic impedance between
- 100 and 132 ohms.
- (b) The terminators shall be powered by the TERMPWR line and may receive
- additional power from other sources but shall not require such additional
- power for proper operation (see 4.4.3).
- (c) The current available to any signal line driver shall not exceed
- 48 milliamps when the driver asserts the line and pulls it to 0.5 volts dc.
- Only 44.8 mA of this current shall be available from the two terminators.
- (d) The voltage on all released signal lines shall be at least 2.5 volts
- dc when the TERMPWR line is within specified values (see 4.4.3).
- (e) These conditions shall be met with any legal configuration of targets
- and initiators as long as at least one device is supplying TERMPWR.
-
- The first termination method above is the same as in SCSI-1. The second
- termination method is recommended for better signal quality.
-
- 4.4.1.1. Output Characteristics
- All signals shall use open-collector or three-state drivers. Each signal
- driven by an SCSI device shall have the following output characteristics when
- measured at the SCSI device's connector:
- VOL (Low-level output voltage) = 0.0 to 0.5 volts dc at 48 mA sinking
- (signal assertion)
- VOH (High-level output voltage) = 2.5 to 5.25 volts dc (signal negation)
-
- 4.4.1.2. Input Characteristics
- SCSI devices with power on shall meet the following electrical
- characteristics on each signal (including both receivers and passive drivers):
- VIL (Low-level input voltage) = 0.0 to 0.8 volts dc (signal true)
- VIH (High-level input voltage) = 2.0 to 5.25 volts dc (signal false)
- IIL (Low-level input current) = -0.4 to 0.0 mA at VI = 0.5 volts dc
- IIH (High-level input current) = 0.0 to 0.1 mA at VI = 2.7 volts dc
- Minimum input hysteresis = 0.2 volts dc
- Maximum input capacitance = 25 pF (measured at the device connector closest
- to the stub, if any, within the device)
-
- It is recommended that SCSI devices with power off also meet the above IIL
- and IIH electrical characteristics on each signal.
-
- To achieve maximum noise immunity and to assure proper operation with
- complex cable configurations, it is recommended that the nominal switching
- threshold be approximately 1.4 volts.
-
- 4.4.2. Differential Alternative
-
- All signals consist of two lines denoted +SIGNAL and -SIGNAL. A signal is
- true when +SIGNAL is more positive than -SIGNAL, and a signal is false when
- -SIGNAL is more positive than +SIGNAL. All assigned signals of the P and Q
- cables described in 4.6 shall be terminated at each end of the cable with a
- terminator network as shown in Figure 4-6. Resistor tolerances in the
- terminator network shall be +_5% or less.
-
- The DIFFSENS signal of the connector is used as an active high enable for
- the differential drivers. If a single-ended device or terminator is
- inadvertently connected, this signal is grounded, disabling the differential
- drivers (see Figure 4-4 and Figure 4-5).
-
- 4.4.2.1. Output Characteristics
- Each signal driven by an SCSI device shall have the following output
- characteristics when measured at the SCSI device's connector:
- VOL (Low-level output voltage) = 1.7 V maximum at IOL (Low-level output
- current) = 55 mA.
- VOH (High-level output voltage) = 2.7 V minimum at IOH (High-level output
- current) = -55 mA.
- VOD (Differential output voltage) = 1.0 V minimum with common-mode voltage
- ranges from -7 to +12 volts dc.
-
- VOL and VOH shall be as measured between the output terminal and the SCSI
- device's logic ground reference.
-
- The output characteristics shall additionally conform to ISO 8482.
-
- 4.4.2.2. Input Characteristics
- SCSI devices shall meet the following electrical characteristics on each
- signal (including both receivers and passive drivers):
- II (Input current on either input) = +_ 2.0 mA maximum.
- Maximum input capacitance = 25 pF.
-
- The II requirement shall be met with the input voltage varying between -7
- and +12 volts dc, with power on or off, and with the hysteresis equaling 35
- millivolts, minimum.
-
- The input characteristics shall additionally conform to ISO 8482.
-
- 4.4.3. Terminator Power
-
- SCSI initiators shall supply terminator power to the TERMPWR contact(s) This
- power shall be supplied through a diode or similar semiconductor that prevents
- backflow of power to the SCSI device. Targets and SCSI devices that become
- temporary initiators (e.g., targets which implement the COPY command or
- asynchronous event notification) are not required to supply terminator power.
- Any SCSI device may supply terminator power. Interface error rates are lower
- if the termination voltage is maintained at the extreme ends of the cable.
-
- All terminators independent of location shall be powered from the TERMPWR
- contact(s). The use of keyed connectors is recommended in SCSI devices that
- provide terminator power to prevent accidental grounding or misconnection of
- terminator power.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: Regulatory agencies may require limiting maximum (short
- circuit) current to the terminator power lines. Recommended current limiting
- is 2 amperes for TERMPWR. For systems utilizing multiple initiators, the
- initiators may be configured with option straps or current limiting devices.
- Maximum available current should not exceed 5 amperes.
-
- SCSI devices shall sink no more than 1.0 mA from TERMPWR except to power an
- optional internal terminator.
-
- Single-ended SCSI devices providing terminator power on cable P and
- cable L shall have the following characteristics:
- VTerm = 4.25 to 5.25 volts dc
- 1500 mA minimum source drive capability
-
- Differential SCSI devices providing terminator power on cable P and
- cable L shall have the following characteristics:
- VTerm = 4.0 to 5.25 volts dc
- 1000 mA minimum source drive capability
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: It is recommended that the terminator power lines be
- decoupled at each terminator with at least a 2.2 microfarad high-frequency
- capacitor to improve signal quality.

-
- 4.4.4. RESERVED Lines
-
- The lines labeled RESERVED shall be open on all SCSI devices.
-
- 4.5. SCSI Bus
-
- Communication on the SCSI bus is allowed between only two SCSI devices at
- any given time. There is a maximum of 16 SCSI devices on a P cabled system
- and 32 SCSI devices on a L cabled system. Each SCSI device
- has an SCSI ID bit assigned as shown in Figure 4-8. Three sample system
- configurations are shown in Figure 4-9.
-
- When two SCSI devices communicate on the SCSI bus, one acts as an initiator
- and the other acts as a target. The initiator originates an operation and the
- target performs the operation. An SCSI device usually has a fixed role as an
- initiator or target, but some devices may be able to assume either role.
-
- An initiator may address up to 16 peripheral devices that are connected to a
- target on a P cabled system. An initiator may address up to 32 peripheral
- devices that are connected to a target on a L cabled system. Three sample
- system configurations are shown in Figure 4-8.

-
- Up to 16 SCSI devices can be supported on the SCSI bus on P cabled systems.
- Up to 32 SCSI devices can be supported on the SCSI bus on L cabled systems.
- They can be any combination of initiators and targets provided there is at
- least one of each.
-
- Certain SCSI bus functions are assigned to the initiator and certain SCSI
- bus functions are assigned to the target. The initiator may arbitrate for the
- SCSI bus and select a particular target. The target may request the transfer
- of COMMAND, DATA, STATUS, or other information on the DATA BUS, and in some
- cases it may arbitrate for the SCSI bus and reselect an initiator for the
- purpose of continuing an operation.
-
- Information transfers on the DATA BUS are asynchronous and follow a defined
- REQ/ACK handshake protocol. One or two byte(s) of information may be
- transferred with each handshake on the P cable. One, two, or four bytes of
- information may be transferred with each handshake on the L cable. An option
- is defined for synchronous data transfer.
-
- 4.6. SCSI Bus Signals
-
- There are a total of 27 signals on the P cable and 45 signals on the L
- cable. A total of 11 signals are used for control and 36 are used for data
- (messages, commands, status, and data), including parity. These signals are
- described as follows:
-
- BSY (BUSY). An "OR-tied" signal that indicates that the bus is being used.
-
- SEL (SELECT). An "OR-tied" signal used by an initiator to select a target or
- by a target to reselect an initiator.
-
- C/D (CONTROL/DATA). A signal driven by a target that indicates whether
- CONTROL or DATA information is on the DATA BUS. True indicates CONTROL.
-
- I/O (INPUT/OUTPUT). A signal driven by a target that controls the direction
- of data movement on the DATA BUS with respect to an initiator. True indicates
- input to the initiator. This signal is also used to distinguish between
- SELECTION and RESELECTION phases.
-
- MSG (MESSAGE). A signal driven by a target during the MESSAGE phase.
-
- REQ (REQUEST). A signal driven by a target on the P cable to indicate a
- request for a REQ/ACK data transfer handshake.
-
- ACK (ACKNOWLEDGE). A signal driven by an initiator on the P cable to
- indicate an acknowledgment for a REQ/ACK data transfer handshake.
-
- ATN (ATTENTION). A signal driven by an initiator to indicate the ATTENTION
- condition.
-
- RST (RESET). An "OR-tied" signal that indicates the RESET condition.
-
- DB(7-0,P) (DATA BUS). Eight data-bit signals, plus a parity-bit signal that
- form a DATA BUS. DB(7) is the most significant bit and has the highest
- priority during the ARBITRATION phase. Bit number, significance, and priority
- decrease downward to DB(0). A data bit is defined as one when the signal
- value is true and is defined as zero when the signal value is false. Data
- parity DB(P) shall be odd. Parity is undefined during the ARBITRATION phase.
-
- DB(31-8,P1,P2,P3) (DATA BUS). Twenty-four data-bit signals, plus three
- parity-bit signals that form an extension to the DATA BUS. DB(P1,P2,P3) are
- parity bits for DB(15-8), DB(23-16), and DB(31-24) respectively. On SCSI
- devices which support 16 IDs DB(15) has the highest priority in the DB(15-8)
- byte during the ARBITRATION phase. The priority decreases downward to DB(8).
- DB(15) has a lower priority than DB(0). On SCSI devices which support 32 IDs
- DB(23) has the highest priority in the DB(23-16) byte and DB(31) has the
- highest priority in the DB(31-24) byte during the ARBITRATION phase. The
- priority decreases downward to DB(16) in the DB(23-16) byte and to DB(24) in
- the DB(31-24) byte. DB(23) has a lower priority than DB(8) and DB(31) has a
- lower priority than DB(16). A data bit is defined as one when the signal value
- is true and is defined as zero when the signal value is false. Data parity
- DB(Px) shall be odd.
-
- 4.6.1. Signal Values
-
- Signals may assume true or false values. There are two methods of driving
- these signals. In both cases, the signal shall be actively driven true, or
- asserted. In the case of OR-tied drivers, the driver does not drive the
- signal to the false state, rather the bias circuitry of the bus terminators
- pulls the signal false whenever it is released by the drivers at every SCSI
- device. If any driver is asserted, then the signal is true. In the case of
- non-OR-tied drivers, the signal may be actively driven false. In this
- standard, wherever the term negated is used, it means that the signal may be
- actively driven false, or may be simply released (in which case the bias
- circuitry pulls it false), at the option of the implementor. The advantage to
- actively driving signals false during information transfer is that the
- transition from true to false occurs more quickly and the noise margin is much
- higher than if the signal is simply released. This facilitates reliable data
- transfer at high rates, especially at the longer cable lengths used with
- differential drivers.
-
- 4.6.2. OR-Tied Signals
-
- The BSY, SEL, and RST signals shall be OR-tied only. In the ordinary
- operation of the bus, the BSY and RST signals may be simultaneously driven
- true by several drivers. No signals other than BSY, RST, and DB(P) are
- simultaneously driven by two or more drivers, and any signal other than BSY,
- SEL, and RST may employ OR-tied or non-OR-tied drivers. DB(P) shall not be
- driven false during the ARBITRATION phase but may be driven false in other
- phases. There is no operational problem in mixing OR-tied and non-OR-tied
- drivers on signals other than BSY and RST.
-
- 4.6.3. Signal Sources
-
- Table 4-6 indicates which type of SCSI device is allowed to source each
- signal. No attempt is made to show if the source is driving asserted, driving
- negated, or is passive. All SCSI device drivers that are not active sources
- shall be in the passive state. The RST signal may be asserted by any SCSI
- device at any time.

- 4.7. SCSI Bus Timing

- Unless otherwise indicated, the delay-time measurements for each SCSI

- in the cable. The timing characteristics of each signal are described in the

- 4.7.1. Arbitration Delay
-
- The minimum time an SCSI device shall wait from asserting BSY for
- arbitration until the DATA BUS can be examined to see if arbitration has been
- won. There is no maximum time.
-
- 4.7.2. Assertion Period
-
- The minimum time that a target shall assert REQ while using synchronous data
- transfers. Also, the minimum time that an initiator shall assert ACK while
- using synchronous data transfers.
-
- 4.7.3. Bus Clear Delay
-
- The maximum time for an SCSI device to stop driving all bus signals after:
- (1) The BUS FREE phase is detected (BSY and SEL both false for a bus settle
- delay)
- (2) SEL is received from another SCSI device during the ARBITRATION phase
- (3) The transition of RST to true.
-
- For the first condition above, the maximum time for an SCSI device to clear
- the bus is 1200 nanoseconds from BSY and SEL first becoming both false. If an
- SCSI device requires more than a bus settle delay to detect BUS FREE phase, it
- shall clear the bus within a bus clear delay minus the excess time.

-
- 5. Logical Characteristics
-
- 5.1. SCSI Bus Phases
-
- The SCSI architecture includes eight distinct phases:
-
- BUS FREE phase
- ARBITRATION phase
- SELECTION phase
- RESELECTION phase
- COMMAND phase \
- DATA phase \ These phases are collectively termed the
- STATUS phase / information transfer phases.
- MESSAGE phase /
-
- The SCSI bus can never be in more than one phase at any given time. In the
- following descriptions, signals that are not mentioned shall not be asserted.
-
- 5.1.2. ARBITRATION Phase
-
- The ARBITRATION phase allows one SCSI device to gain control of the SCSI bus
- so that it can initiate or resume an I/O process.
-
- The procedure for an SCSI device to obtain control of the SCSI bus is as
- follows:
- (1) The SCSI device shall first wait for the BUS FREE phase to occur. The
- BUS FREE phase is detected whenever both the BSY and SEL signals are
- simultaneously and continuously false for a minimum of a bus settle delay.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: This bus settle delay is necessary because a
- transmission line phenomenon known as a "wired-OR glitch" may cause the BSY
- signal to briefly appear false, even though it is being driven true.
-
- (2) The SCSI device shall wait a minimum of a bus free delay after detection
- of the BUS FREE phase (i.e. after the BSY and SEL signals are both false for a
- bus settle delay) before driving any signal.
- (3) Following the bus free delay in Step (2), the SCSI device may arbitrate
- for the SCSI bus by asserting both the BSY signal and its own SCSI ID, however
- the SCSI device shall not arbitrate (i.e. assert the BSY signal and its SCSI
- ID) if more than a bus set delay has passed since the BUS FREE phase was last
- observed.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: There is no maximum delay before asserting the BSY
- signal and the SCSI ID following the bus free delay in Step (2) as long as
- the bus remains in the BUS FREE phase. However, SCSI devices that delay
- longer than a bus settle delay plus a bus set delay from the time when the
- BSY and SEL signals first become false may fail to participate in
- arbitration when competing with faster SCSI devices.
-
- (4) After waiting at least an arbitration delay (measured from its assertion
- of the BSY signal) the SCSI device shall examine the DATA BUS. If a higher
- priority SCSI ID bit is true on the DATA BUS (DB(7) is the highest), then the
- SCSI device has lost the arbitration and the SCSI device may release its
- signals and return to Step (1). If no higher priority SCSI ID bit is true on
- the DATA BUS, then the SCSI device has won the arbitration and it shall assert
- the SEL signal. Any SCSI device other than the winner has lost the
- arbitration and shall release the BSY signal and its SCSI ID bit within a bus
- clear delay after the SEL signal becomes true. An SCSI device that loses
- arbitration may return to Step (1).
-
- The SCSI ID priority is shown below:
- Priority
- Highest --> Lowest
- SCSI ID SCSI ID
-
- P Cable 7 0 15 8
- L Cable 7 0 15 8 23 16 31 24
-
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: It is recommended that new implementations wait for the
- SEL signal to become true before releasing the BSY signal and SCSI ID bit
- when arbitration is lost.
-
- (5) The SCSI device that wins arbitration shall wait at least a bus clear
- delay plus a bus settle delay after asserting the SEL signal before changing
- any signals.
-
- NOTE: The SCSI ID bit is a single bit on the DATA BUS that corresponds to
- the SCSI device's unique SCSI address. All other DATA BUS bits shall be
- released by the SCSI device. Parity is not valid during the ARBITRATION
- phase. During the ARBITRATION phase, DB(PX) may be released or asserted, but
- shall not be actively driven false.
-
- 5.1.5. Information Transfer Phases
-
- NOTE: The COMMAND, DATA, STATUS, and MESSAGE phases are all grouped
- together as the information transfer phases because they are all used to
- transfer data or control information via the DATA BUS. The actual content
- of the information is beyond the scope of this section.
-
- The C/D, I/O, and MSG signals are used to distinguish between the different
- information transfer phases (see Table 5-1). The target drives these three
- signals and therefore controls all changes from one phase to another. The
- initiator can request a MESSAGE OUT phase by asserting the ATN signal, while
- the target can cause the BUS FREE phase by releasing the MSG, C/D, I/O, and
- BSY signals.
-
- The information transfer phases use one or more REQ/ACK handshakes to
- control the information transfer. Each REQ/ACK handshake allows the transfer
- of one byte of information. During the information transfer phases the BSY
- signal shall remain true and the SEL signal shall remain false. Additionally,
- during the information transfer phases, the target shall continuously envelope
- the REQ/ACK handshake(s) with the C/D, I/O, and MSG signals in such a manner
- that these control signals are valid for a bus settle delay before the
- assertion of the REQ signal of the first handshake and remain valid until
- after the negation of the ACK signal at the end of the handshake of the last
- transfer of the phase.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTES:
- (1) After the negation of the ACK signal of the last transfer of the phase,
- the target may prepare for a new phase by asserting or negating the C/D,
- I/O, and MSG signals. These signals may be changed together or
- individually. They may be changed in any order and may be changed more than
- once. It is desirable that each line change only once. A new phase does
- not begin until the REQ signal is asserted for the first byte of the new
- phase.
- (2) A phase is defined as ending when the C/D, I/O, or MSG signals change
- after the negation of the ACK signal. The time between the end of a phase
- and the assertion of the REQ signal beginning a new phase is undefined. An
- initiator is allowed to anticipate a new phase based on the previous phase,
- the expected new phase, and early information provided by changes in the
- C/D, I/O, and MSG signals. However, the anticipated phase is not valid
- until the REQ signal is asserted at the beginning of a the next phase.

-
- 5.1.5.3. Wide Data Transfer
- Wide data transfer is optional and may be used in the DATA phase only if a
- nonzero wide data transfer agreement is in effect. The messages determine the
- use of wide mode by both SCSI devices and establish a data path width to be
- used during the DATA phase.
-
- Wide data transfers of 16- or 32-bits may be established. Although not
- mandatory, it is recommended that targets and initiators that support 32-bit
- wide transfers also support 16-bit wide transfers as well. All SCSI devices
- shall support 8-bit data transfers.
-
- During 16-bit wide data transfers, the first and second logical data bytes
- for each data phase shall be transferred across the DB(7-0,P) and DB(15-8,P2)
- signals, respectively, on the P cable. Subsequent pairs of data bytes are
- likewise transferred in parallel across the P cable (see Figure 5-1).
-
- During 32-bit wide data transfers, the first, second, third, and fourth
- logical data bytes for each data phase shall be transferred across the
- DB(7-0,P), DB(15-8,P2), DB(23-16,P2), and DB(31-24,P3) signals, respectively,
- on the L cable. Subsequent pairs of data bytes are likewise transferred in
- parallel across the L cable (see Figure 5-1).
-
-
- When transferring bytes W, X, Y and Z across the three bus widths,
- they are transferred as shown below:
-
- Hand- 8-bit 16-bit 32-bit
- shake ______ _____ _______ ______

-
-
- If the last data byte transferred for a command does not fall on the DB(15-
- 8,P1) signals for a 16-bit wide transfer or the DB(31-24,P3) signals for a 32-
- bit wide transfer, then the values of the remaining higher-numbered bits are
- undefined. However, parity bits for these undefined bytes shall be valid for
- whatever data is placed on the bus.

- ==============================================================================
-
-
- The COPY command (Table 7-5) provides a means to copy data from one logical
- unit to another or the same logical unit. The logical unit that receives and
- performs the COPY command is called the copy manager. The copy manager is
- responsible for copying data from a logical unit (source device) to a logical
- unit (destination device). These logical units may reside on different SCSI
- devices or the same SCSI device (in fact all three may be the same logical
- unit). Some SCSI devices that implement this command may not support copies
- to or from another SCSI device, or may not support third party copies (i.e.,
- both the source and the destination logical units reside on other SCSI
- devices).
-
- The pad bit (7.2.3.7) is used in conjunction with the Cat bit (7.2.3.7) in
- the segment descriptors to define what action should be taken when a segment
- of the copy does not fit exactly into an integer number of destination blocks.
- The parameter list length field specifies the length in bytes of the
- parameters that shall be sent during the DATA OUT phase of the command. A
- parameter list length of zero indicates that no data shall be transferred.
- This condition shall not be considered as an error.
-
- The COPY parameter list (Table 7-6) begins with a four-byte header that
- contains the COPY function code and priority. Following the header is one or
- more segment descriptors.

-
-
- The COPY function code field defines a specific format for the segment
- descriptors. The COPY function codes are defined in Table 7-7. A target need
- not support all function codes for its device type.
-
- The priority field of the COPY parameter list establishes the relative
- priority of this COPY command to other commands being executed by the same
- target. All other commands are assumed to have a priority of 1. Priority 0
- is the highest priority with increasing values indicating lower priorities.
-
- The segment descriptor formats are determined by the COPY function code.
- The segment descriptor format used for write-once devices, CD-ROM devices, and
- optical-memory devices shall be the same as for direct-access devices. The
- segment descriptor format used for printer devices, communications, and
- processor devices, shall be the same as for sequential-access devices. Thus a
- COPY from a write-once device to a printer device uses the same segment
- descriptor format as for a COPY from a direct-access device to a sequential-
- access device (see Table 7-7). The segment descriptor formats are described
- in Tables 7-8 through 7-11. A maximum of 256 segment descriptors are
- permitted. The segment descriptors are identified by ascending numbers
- beginning with zero.

-
- 7.2.3.1. Errors Detected by the Managing SCSI Device
- Two classes of exception conditions may occur during execution of a COPY
- command. The first class consists of those exception conditions detected by
- the SCSI device that received the COPY command and is managing the execution
- of the command. These conditions include parity errors while transferring the
- COPY command and status byte, invalid parameters in the COPY command, invalid
- segment descriptors, and inability of the SCSI device controlling the COPY
- functions to continue operating. In the event of such an exception condition,
- the SCSI device managing the COPY shall:
- (1) Terminate the COPY command with CHECK CONDITION status.
- (2) The valid bit in the sense data shall be set to one. The segment number
- shall contain the number of the segment descriptor being processed at the time
- the exception condition is detected. The sense key shall contain the sense
- key code describing the exception condition (i.e., not COPY ABORTED). The
- information field shall contain the difference between the number of blocks
- field in the segment descriptor being processed at the time of the failure and
- the number of blocks successfully copied. This number is the residue of
- unprocessed blocks remaining for the segment descriptor.
-
- 7.2.3.2. Errors Detected by a Target
- The second class of errors consists of exception conditions detected by the
- SCSI device transferring data at the request of the SCSI device managing the
- transfer. The SCSI device managing the COPY command detects exception
- conditions by receiving CHECK CONDITION status from one of the SCSI devices it
- is managing. It then shall recover the sense data associated with the
- exception condition.
-
- The SCSI device managing the COPY command may also be the source or
- destination SCSI device (or both). It shall distinguish between a failure of
- the management of the COPY and a failure of the data transfer being requested.
- It shall then create the appropriate sense data internally.
-
- After recovering the sense data associated with the detected error, the SCSI
- device managing the COPY command shall:
- (1) Terminate the COPY command with CHECK CONDITION status.
- (2) The valid bit in the sense data shall be set to one. The segment number
- shall contain the number of the segment descriptor being processed at the time
- the exception condition is detected. The sense key shall be set to COPY
- ABORTED. The information field shall contain the difference between the
- number of blocks field in the segment descriptor being processed at the time
- of the failure and the number of blocks successfully copied. This number is
- the residue of unprocessed blocks remaining for the segment descriptor.
-
- The first byte of the command-specific information field shall specify the
- starting byte number, relative to the first byte of sense data, of an area
- that contains (unchanged) the source logical unit's status byte and sense
- data. A zero value indicates that no status byte or sense data is being
- returned for the source logical unit.
-
- The second byte of the command-specific information field shall specify the
- starting byte number, relative to the first byte of sense data, of an area
- that contains (unchanged) the destination logical unit's status byte and sense
- data. A zero value indicates that no status byte or sense data is being
- returned for the destination logical unit.
-
- 7.2.3.3. COPY Function Code 00h, 01h, 05h, and 06h
- The format for the segment descriptors for COPY transfers between direct-
- access and sequential-access devices is specified in Table 7-8 and Table
- 7-new1. These formats are required for COPY function codes 00h or 01h and
- COPY function codes 05h and 06h, respectively. The segment descriptor may be
- repeated up to 256 times within the parameter list length specified in the
- command descriptor block.

-
- The source address and source LUN fields specify the SCSI bus ID and logical
- unit of the device to copy the data from for this segment of the COPY command.
- The destination address and destination LUN fields specify the SCSI bus ID and
- logical unit to copy the data to for this segment of the COPY command. Some
- SCSI devices may not support third-party COPY in which the copying SCSI device
- is not the source or destination device. Some SCSI devices only support COPY
- within the SCSI device and not to other SCSI devices. If an unsupported COPY
- operation is requested, the command shall be terminated with CHECK CONDITION
- status and the sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST with an additional
- sense code of INVALID FIELD IN PARAMETER LIST (see 7.2.3.1).
-
- A catenate (Cat) bit (optional) of one indicates that the COPY manager shall
- catenate the last source block of a segment with the first source block of the
- next segment if the last source block does not end exactly at the end of the
- destination block. The definition of a cat bit of zero depends on the setting
- of the pad bit in the command descriptor block (see 7.2.3.7).
-
- The sequential-access device block-length field specifies the block length
- to be used on the sequential-access logical unit during this segment of the

- the sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST with an additional sense code of
- INVALID FIELD IN PARAMETER LIST . If the block length is found to be invalid
- while executing a read or write operation to the sequential-access device, the
- command shall be terminated with CHECK CONDITION status and the sense key
- shall be set to COPY ABORTED (see 7.2.3.2).
-
- The direct-access device number of blocks field specifies the number of
- blocks in the current segment to be copied. A value of zero indicates that no

-
- The image mode COPY command copies an exact image of the source device
- medium to the destination device medium, beginning at their current positions.
- The copy function terminates when the source device:
- (1) encounters an end-of-partition as defined by the source device
- (2) encounters an end-of-data as defined by the source device (i.e., BLANK
- CHECK sense key)
- (3) has copied the number of consecutive filemarks specified in the count
- field from the source device to the destination device
- (4) has copied the number of consecutive setmarks specified in the count
- field from the source device to the destination device, if the RSmk bit in the
- device configuration page (see 9.3.3.1) is one.
-
- A count field of zero indicates that the COPY command shall not terminate
- due to any number of consecutive filemarks or setmarks. Other error or
- exception conditions (e.g., early-warning end-of-partition on the destination
- device) may cause the COPY command to terminate prior to completion. In such
- cases, it is not possible to calculate a residue, so the information field in
- the sense data shall be set to zero.
-
- 7.2.3.7. Copies With Unequal Block Lengths
- When copying data between two devices with unequal block lengths, it is
- possible for the last source block to not completely fill the last destination
- block for one or more segments in the COPY command. Two optional bits are
- defined to assist in controlling the copy manager's actions in this
- circumstance. The Pad bit (in the command descriptor block) and the Cat bit
- (in each applicable segment descriptor) are defined in Table 7-12.
-
- Table 7-12: Pad and Cat Bit Definition
-
- ==============================================================================
- Pad Cat COPY Manager's Action
- ---- ---- -------------------------------------------------------------------
- 0 0 On inexact segments, it is device specific whether the COPY manager
- rejects the COPY command with CHECK CONDITION status and ILLEGAL
- REQUEST sense key, the COPY manager writes or accepts short blocks
- (variable-block mode on sequential-access devices), or the COPY
- manager adds pad characters (00h) to the destination block or
- strips pad characters from the source block.
-
- 1 0 On inexact segments, the COPY manager shall add pad characters
- (00h) to the destination block to completely fill the block or it
- shall strip pad characters from the source block, always stopping
- at the end of a complete block.
-
- X 1 The COPY manager shall always write or read complete blocks. On
- inexact segments, the remainder of the block contains data from the
- next segment. This code is not valid in the last segment of the
- COPY command.
- ==============================================================================
-
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: Use of pad characters is intended to assist in managing
- COPY commands between devices of different block lengths where partial-block
- residues may occur. The initiator which issued the COPY command is
- responsible for management of these pad areas (i.e., remembering where they
- are). One possible method is to write the COPY parameter list information
- to the destination medium prior to issuing the COPY command for backup and
- to read this information prior to issuing the COPY command for restore.

- ==============================================================================
-
-
- The INQUIRY command (Table 7-14) requests that information regarding
- parameters of the target and its attached peripheral device(s) be sent to the
- initiator. An option allows the initiator to request additional information
- about the target or logical unit (see 7.2.5.2).
-
- An enable vital product data (EVPD) bit of one specifies that the target
- shall return the optional vital product data specified by the page code field.
- If the target does not support vital product data and this bit is set to one,
- the target shall return CHECK CONDITION status with the sense key set to
- ILLEGAL REQUEST and an additional sense code of INVALID FIELD IN CDB.
-
- An EVPD bit of zero specifies that the target shall return the standard
- INQUIRY data. If the page code field is not zero, the target shall return
- CHECK CONDITION status with the sense key set to ILLEGAL REQUEST and an
- additional sense code of INVALID FIELD IN CDB.
-
- The page code field specifies which page of vital product data information
- the target shall return (see 7.3.4).
-
- The INQUIRY command shall return CHECK CONDITION status only when the target
- cannot return the requested INQUIRY data.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: It is recommended that the INQUIRY data be returned even
- though the peripheral device may not be ready for other commands.
-
- If an INQUIRY command is received from an initiator with a pending unit
- attention condition (i.e., before the target reports CHECK CONDITION status),
- the target shall perform the INQUIRY command and shall not clear the unit
- attention condition (see 6.9).
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTES:
- (1) The INQUIRY command is typically used by the initiator after a reset or
- power-up condition to determine the device types for system configuration.
- To minimize delays after a reset or power-up condition the standard INQUIRY
- data should be available without incurring any media access delays. If the
- target does store some of the INQUIRY data on the device it may return zeros
- or ASCII spaces (20h) in those fields until the data is available from the
- device.
- (2) The INQUIRY data may change as the target executes its initialization
- sequence or in response to a CHANGE DEFINITION command. For example, the
- target may contain a minimum command set in its non-volatile memory and may
- load its final firmware from the device when it becomes ready. After it has
- loaded the firmware it may support more options and therefore return
- different supported options information in the INQUIRY data.
-
- 7.2.5.1. Standard INQUIRY Data
- The standard INQUIRY data (Table 7-15) contains 36 required bytes, followed
- by a variable number of vendor-specific parameters. Bytes 56 through 95, if
- returned, are reserved for future standardization.
-
- The standard INQUIRY data format is shown in Table 7-15.

- (2) All other device-types: This bit is reserved.
-
- A terminate I/O process (TrmIOP) bit of one indicates that the device
- supports the TERMINATE I/O PROCESS message as defined in 5.6.22. A value of
- zero indicates that the device does not support the TERMINATE I/O PROCESS
- message.
-
- A response data format value of zero indicates the INQUIRY data format is as
- specified in SCSI-1. A response data format value of one indicates
- compatibility with some products that were designed prior to the development
- of this standard (i.e., CCS). A response data format value of two indicates
- that the data shall be in the format specified in this standard. Response
- data format values greater than two are reserved.
-
- The additional length field shall specify the length in bytes of the
- parameters. If the allocation length of the command descriptor block is too
- small to transfer all of the parameters, the additional length shall not be
- adjusted to reflect the truncation.
-
- A wide SCSI address 32 (Addr32) bit of one indicates that the device supports
- 32-bit wide SCSI addresses. A value of zero indicates that the device does not
- support 32-bit wide SCSI addresses.
-
- A wide SCSI address 16 (Addr16) bit of one indicates that the device supports
- 16-bit wide SCSI addresses. A value of zero indicates that the device does not
- support 16-bit wide SCSI addresses.
-
- NOTE: If the values of both the Addr16 and Addr32 bits are zero
- the device only supports 8-bit wide SCSI addresses.
-
-
- A relative addressing (RelAdr) bit of one indicates that the device supports
- the relative addressing mode for this logical unit. If this bit is set to one
- the linked command (Linked) bit shall also be set to one since relative
- addressing can only be used with linked commands. A RelAdr bit of zero
- indicates the device does not support relative addressing for this logical
- unit.
-
- A wide bus 32 (WBus32) bit of one indicates that the device supports 32-bit
- wide data transfers. A value of zero indicates that the device does not
- support 32-bit wide data transfers.
-
- A wide bus 16 (WBus16) bit of one indicates that the device supports 16-bit
- wide data transfers. A value of zero indicates that the device does not
- support 16-bit wide data transfers.
-
- NOTE: If the values of both the WBus16 and WBus32 bits are zero the device
- only supports 8-bit wide data transfers.
-
- A synchronous transfer (Sync) bit of one indicates that the device supports
- synchronous data transfer. A value of zero indicates the device does not
- support synchronous data transfer.
-

-
- A soft reset (SftRe) bit of zero indicates that the device responds to the
- RESET condition with the hard RESET alternative (see 5.2.2.1). A SftRe bit of
- one indicates that the device responds to the RESET condition with the soft
- RESET alternative (see 5.2.2.2).
-
- ASCII data fields shall contain only graphic codes (i.e., code values 20h
- through 7Eh). Left-aligned fields shall place any unused bytes at the end of

- characters (20h). Right-aligned fields shall place any unused bytes at the
- start of the field (lowest offset) and the unused bytes shall be filled with
- space characters (20h).
-
- The vendor identification field contains eight bytes of ASCII data
- identifying the vendor of the product. The data shall be left aligned within
- this field.
-
- NOTE: It is intended that this field provide a unique vendor identification
- of the manufacturer of the SCSI device. In the absence of a formal
- registration procedure, X3T9.2 maintains a list of vendor identification
- codes in use. Vendors are requested to voluntarily submit their
- identification codes to X3T9.2 to prevent duplication of codes (see Appendix
- J).
-
- The product identification field contains sixteen bytes of ASCII data as
- defined by the vendor. The data shall be left-aligned within this field.
-
- The product revision level field contains four bytes of ASCII data as
- defined by the vendor. The data shall be left-aligned within this field.
-
- 7.2.5.2. Vital Product Data
- Implementation of vital product data is optional. The information returned
- consists of configuration data (e.g., vendor identification, product
- identification, model, serial number), manufacturing data (e.g., plant and
- date of manufacture), field replaceable unit data and other vendor- or device-
- specific data.
-
- The initiator requests the vital product data information by setting the
- EVPD bit to one and specifying the page code of the desired vital product data
- (see Table 7-72). If the target does not implement the requested page it
- shall return CHECK CONDITION status. The a sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL
- REQUEST and the additional sense code shall be set to INVALID FIELD IN CDB.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTES:
- (1) It is recommended that the target have the ability to execute the
- INQUIRY command even when a device error occurs which prohibits normal
- command execution. In such a case, CHECK CONDITION status would be returned
- for commands other than INQUIRY or REQUEST SENSE. The sense data returned
- may contain the field replaceable unit code. The vital product data would
- be obtained for the failing device using the INQUIRY command.
- (2) This standard defines a format which allows device-independent initiator
- software to display the vital product data returned by the INQUIRY command.
- For example, the initiator may display the data associated for the field
- replaceable unit returned in the sense data. The contents of the data may
- be vendor-specific; therefore it may not be usable without detailed

- The RESERVE and RELEASE commands provide the basic mechanism for contention
- resolution in multiple-initiator systems. The RELEASE command (Table 8-23) is
- used to release a previously reserved logical unit, or, if the extent release
- option is implemented, to release previously reserved extents within a logical
- unit. It is not an error for an initiator to attempt to release a reservation
- that is not currently valid. In this case, the target returns GOOD status
- without altering any other reservation.
-
- 8.2.11.1. Logical Unit Release (Mandatory)
- If the extent bit is zero, this command shall cause the target to terminate
- all logical unit and extent reservations that are active from the initiator to
- the specified logical unit. The reservation ID field in the command
- descriptor block is ignored by the target.
-
- 8.2.11.2. Extent Release (Optional)
- If the extent bit is one and the extent release option is not implemented,
- then the RELEASE command shall be terminated with CHECK CONDITION status and
- the sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST. This option shall be
- implemented if the extent reservation option (see 8.2.12.2) is implemented.
-
- If the extent bit is one and the extent release option is implemented, this
- command shall cause any reservation from the requesting initiator with a
- matching reservation identification to be terminated. Other reservations from
- the requesting initiator shall remain in effect.
-
- 8.2.11.3. Third-Party Release (Mandatory)
- Third-party release allows an initiator to release a logical unit or extents
- within a logical unit that were previously reserved using third-party
- reservation (see 8.2.12.3). Third-party release shall be implemented and is
- intended for use in multiple-initiator systems that use the COPY command.
-
- If the third-party (3rdPty) bit is zero, then a third-party release is not
- requested. If the 3rdPty bit is one then the target shall release the
- specified logical unit or extents, but only if the reservation was made using
- a third-party reservation by the initiator that is requesting the release for
- the same SCSI device as specified in the third-party device ID field.
-
- If the 3rdPty bit is one the target shall not modify the mode parameters for
- commands received from the third-party device even if the target implements
- the transfer of mode parameters with a third-party RESERVE command.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: If a target implements independent storage of mode
- parameters for each initiator, a third-party RESERVE command copies the
- current mode parameters for the initiator that sent the RESERVE command to
- the current mode parameters for the initiator specified as the third-party
- device (usually a copy master device). A unit attention condition notifies
- the third-party of the changed mode parameters due to the the reservation.
- A successful third-party RELEASE command does not return the third-party
- devices' current mode parameters back to their previous values. The third-
- party device can issue MODE SENSE and MODE SELECT commands to query and
- modify the mode parameters.

-
- The RESERVE and RELEASE commands provide the basic mechanism for contention
- resolution in multiple-initiator systems. The RESERVE command (Table 8-24) is
- used to reserve a logical unit or, if the extent reservation option is
- implemented, extents within a logical unit. The third-party reservation
- allows logical units or extents to be reserved for another specified SCSI
- device.
-
- 8.2.12.1. Logical Unit Reservation (Mandatory).
-
- If the extent bit is zero, this command shall request that the entire
- logical unit be reserved for the exclusive use of the initiator until the
- reservation is superseded by another valid RESERVE command from the initiator
- that made the reservation or until released by a RELEASE command from the same
- initiator that made the reservation, by a BUS DEVICE RESET message from any
- initiator, by a hard RESET condition, or by a power on cycle. A logical unit
- reservation shall not be granted if the logical unit or any extent is reserved
- by another initiator. It shall be permissible for an initiator to reserve a
- logical unit that is currently reserved by that initiator. If the extent bit
- is zero, the reservation identification and the extent list length shall be
- ignored.
-
- If the logical unit, or any extent within the logical unit is reserved for
- another initiator, the target shall return RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
-
- If, after honoring the reservation, any other initiator attempts to perform
- any command on the reserved logical unit other than an INQUIRY command, a
- REQUEST SENSE command, an ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL, or a RELEASE command, which
- shall be ignored, then the command shall be rejected with RESERVATION CONFLICT
- status.
-
- 8.2.12.2. Extent Reservation (Optional)
- The reservation identification field provides a means for an initiator to
- identify each extent reservation. This allows an initiator in a multiple
- tasking environment, to have multiple reservations outstanding. The
- reservation identification is used in the RELEASE command to specify which
- reservation is to be released. It is also used in superseding RESERVE
- commands to specify which reservation is to be superseded.
-
- If the extent reservation option is implemented, then the extent release
- option (see 8.2.11.2) shall also be implemented. These options permit
- multiple extents within the logical unit to be reserved, each with a separate
- reservation type.
-
- If the extent bit is one, and the extent reservation option is implemented,
- then the target shall process the reservation request as follows:
- (1) The extent list shall be checked for the number of extents in the
- reservation request. If the extent list length is zero, no current
- reservations shall be changed, no new reservations shall be created, and this
- condition shall not be treated as an error. If the extent list contains more
- extents than are supported on the logical unit, the command shall be
- terminated with CHECK CONDITION status and the sense key shall be set to
- ILLEGAL REQUEST. If the extent list contains more extents than are currently
- available on the logical unit, then the target shall return a RESERVATION
- CONFLICT status.
- (2) The extent list shall be checked for valid extent logical block
- addresses. If any logical block address is invalid for this logical unit, the
- command shall be terminated with CHECK CONDITION status and the sense key
- shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST. The extent list shall be checked for invalid
- extent overlaps (as defined by reservation type) with other extent descriptors
- in the extent list and if invalid overlaps are found, the command shall be
- terminated with CHECK CONDITION status and the sense key shall be set to
- ILLEGAL REQUEST.
- (3) If the requested reservation does not conflict with an existing
- reservation, the extents specified shall be reserved until superseded by
- another valid RESERVE command from the initiator that made the reservation or
- until released by a RELEASE command from the same initiator, by a BUS DEVICE
- RESET message from any initiator, or by a hard RESET condition. If either of
- the last two conditions occur, the next command from each initiator shall be
- terminated with CHECK CONDITION status and the sense key shall be set to UNIT
- ATTENTION.
- (4) If the reservation request conflicts with an existing reservation, then
- the target shall return a RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
-
- If the extent bit is one, and the extent reservation option is not
- implemented, then the RESERVE command shall be rejected with CHECK CONDITION
- status and the sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST.

- ==============================================================================
-
- The size of the extent list shall be defined by the extent list length
- field. The extent list shall consist of zero or more descriptors as shown in
- Table 8-25. Each extent descriptor defines an extent beginning at the
- specified logical block address for the specified number of blocks. If the
- number of blocks is zero, the extent shall begin at the specified logical
- block address and continue through the last logical block address on the
- logical unit.
-
- The reservation type field shall determine the type of reservation to be
- effected for each extent. Four types of reservations are possible as follows:
-
- DB(1) DB(0) Reservation Type
- ----- ----- ----------------
- 1 0 Read Exclusive
- 0 1 Write Exclusive
- 1 1 Exclusive Access
- 0 0 Read Shared
-
- Read Exclusive. While this reservation is active, no other initiator shall
- be permitted read operations to the indicated extent. This reservation shall
- not inhibit write operations from any initiator or conflict with a write
- exclusive reservation; however, read exclusive, exclusive access, and read
- shared reservations that overlap this extent shall conflict with this
- reservation.
-
- Write Exclusive. While this reservation is active, no other initiator shall
- be permitted write operations to the indicated extent. This reservation shall
- not inhibit read operations from any initiator or conflict with a read
- exclusive reservation from any initiator. This reservation shall conflict
- with write exclusive, exclusive access, and read shared reservations that
- overlap this extent.
-
- Exclusive Access. While this reservation is active, no other initiator
- shall be permitted any access to the indicated extent. All reservation types
- that overlap this extent shall conflict with this reservation.
-
- Read Shared. While this reservation is active, no write operations shall be
- permitted by any initiator to the indicated extent. This reservation shall
- not inhibit read operations from any initiator or conflict with a read shared
- reservation. Read exclusive, write exclusive, and exclusive access
- reservations that overlap with this extent shall conflict with this
- reservation.
-
- If the relative address bit is one, the logical block address in the extent
- descriptor shall be treated as a two's complement displacement. This
- displacement shall be added to the logical block address last accessed on the
- logical unit to form the logical block address for this extent. This feature
- is only available when linking commands and requires that a previous command
- in the linked group has accessed a logical block on the logical unit; if not,
- the RESERVE command shall be terminated with CHECK CONDITION status and the
- sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST.
-
- If an initiator attempts a command to a logical block that has been reserved
- and that access is prohibited by the reservation, the command shall not be
- performed and the command shall be terminated with a RESERVATION CONFLICT
- status. If a reservation conflict precludes any part of the command, none of
- the command shall be performed. COPY commands shall be terminated with CHECK
- CONDITION status and the sense key shall be set to DATA PROTECT if any part of
- the copy operation is prohibited by an active reservation. If any extent in a
- logical unit is reserved in any way, by any initiator, a FORMAT UNIT command
- shall be rejected with a RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
-
- 8.2.12.3. Third Party Reservation (Mandatory).
- The third-party reservation for the RESERVE command allows an initiator to
- reserve a logical unit or extents within a logical unit for another SCSI
- device. This is intended for use in multiple-initiator systems that use the
- COPY command. Third-party reservation is required.
-
- If the third-party (3rdPty) bit is zero, then a third-party reservation is
- not requested. If the 3rdPty bit is one then the target shall reserve the
- specified logical unit or extents for the SCSI device specified in the third-
- party device ID field. The target shall preserve the reservation until it is
- superseded by another valid RESERVE command from the initiator that made the
- reservation or until it is released by the same initiator, by a BUS DEVICE
- reset message from any initiator, or a hard reset condition. The target shall
- ignore any attempt to release the reservation made by any other initiator.
-
- If independent sets of parameters are implemented, a third party reservation
- shall cause the target to transfer the set of parameters in effect for the
- initiator of the RESERVE command to the parameters used for commands from the
- third party device. Any subsequent command issued by the third-party device
- is executed according to the mode parameters in effect for the initiator that
- sent the RESERVE command.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: This transfer of the mode parameters is applicable to
- target devices which store mode information independently for different
- initiators. This mechanism allows an initiator to set the mode parameters
- of a target for the use of a copy master (i.e., the third-party device).
- The third-party copy master may subsequently issue a MODE SELECT command to
- modify the mode parameters.
-
- 8.2.12.4. Superseding Reservations (Mandatory)
- An initiator that holds a current reservation (unit or extent) may modify
- that reservation by issuing another RESERVE command (unit or extent) to the
- same logical unit. The superseding RESERVE command shall release the previous
- reservation state (unit or extent) when the new reservation request is
- granted. If the superseding reservation is for an extent reservation and the
- current reservation is also an extent reservation, the current extent
- reservation identification value is used for the superseding reservation. The
- current reservation shall not be modified if the superseding reservation
- request cannot be granted. If the superseding reservation cannot be granted
- because of conflicts with a previous reservation (other than the reservation
- being superseded), then the target shall return RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: Superseding reservations allow the SCSI device ID to be
- changed on a reservation using the third-party reservation option. This
- capability is necessary for certain situations when using COMPARE, COPY, and
- COPY AND VERIFY commands.

-
- The RESERVE UNIT and RELEASE UNIT commands provide the basic mechanism for
- contention resolution in multiple-initiator systems. The RELEASE UNIT command
- (Table 9-12) is used to release previously reserved logical units for the
- requesting initiator, or if it is a third-party release, to another specified
- SCSI device.
-
- If a valid reservation exists for the I_T_L nexus, the target shall release
- the reservation and return GOOD status.
-
- It is not an error to attempt to release a reservation that is not currently
- valid. In this case, the target shall return GOOD status without altering any
- other reservation.
-
- 9.2.9.1. Third-Party Release
- Third-party release allows an initiator to release a logical unit that was
- previously reserved using a third-party reservation (see 9.2.10.1).
-
- If the third party (3rdPty) bit is zero, then a third-party release is not
- requested. If the 3rdPty bit is one, and if the reservation was made using a
- third-party reservation by the initiator that is requesting the release for
- the same SCSI device as specified in the third-party device ID, then the
- target shall release the reservation.
-
- If the 3rdPty bit is one, the target shall not modify the mode parameters
- for commands received from the third-party device even if the target
- implements the transfer of mode parameters with a third-party RESERVE UNIT
- command.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: When a target implements independent storage of mode
- parameters for each initiator, a third-party RESERVE UNIT command effects a
- transfer of the current mode parameters. Those set up by the initiator of
- the RESERVE UNIT are to be set as the mode parameters used for commands from
- the third-party device (usually a copy master device). A unit attention
- condition notifies the third-party device of the changed mode parameters. A
- successful third-party RELEASE UNIT command leaves the transferred
- parameters intact. The third-party device can issue MODE SENSE and MODE
- SELECT commands to query and modify the mode parameters.

-
- The RESERVE UNIT and RELEASE UNIT commands provide the basic mechanism for
- contention resolution in multiple-initiator systems. The RESERVE UNIT command
- (Table 9-13) is used to reserve logical units for the exclusive use of the
- requesting initiator, or if it is a third-party reservation, to another
- specified SCSI device.
-
- This command requests that the entire logical unit be reserved for the
- exclusive use of the initiator until the reservation is superseded by another
- valid RESERVE UNIT command from the initiator that made the reservation or
- until released by a RELEASE UNIT command from the same initiator that made the
- reservation, by a BUS DEVICE RESET message from any initiator, by a hard reset
- condition, or by a power on cycle. The reservation shall not be granted if
- the logical unit is reserved by another initiator. It shall be permissible
- for an initiator to reserve a logical unit that is currently reserved by that
- initiator.
-
- If the logical unit is reserved for another initiator, the target shall
- return RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
-
- If, after honoring the reservation, any other initiator attempts to perform
- any command on the reserved logical unit other than an INQUIRY command, a
- REQUEST SENSE command, or a RELEASE UNIT command, which shall be ignored, then
- the command shall be rejected with RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
-
-
- 9.2.10.1. Third-Party Reservation
- Third-party reservation allows an initiator to reserve a logical unit for
- another SCSI device. This is intended for use in multiple-initiator systems
- that use the COPY command.
-
- If the third-party (3rdPty) bit is zero, a third-party reservation is not
- requested. If the 3rdPty bit is one the target shall reserve the logical unit
- for the SCSI device specified in the third-party device ID field. The target
- shall preserve the reservation until it is superseded by another valid RESERVE
- UNIT command from the initiator that made the reservation or until it is
- released by the same initiator, by a BUS DEVICE RESET message from any
- initiator, or a hard reset condition. The target shall ignore any attempt to
- release the reservation made by any other initiator.
-
- If independent sets of parameters are implemented, a third party reservation
- shall cause the target to transfer the set of parameters in effect for the
- initiator of the RESERVE command to the parameters used for commands from the
- third party device. Any subsequent command issued by the third-party device
- is executed according to the mode parameters in effect for the initiator
- that sent the RESERVE command.
-
- If independent sets of parameters are implemented, a third party reservation
- shall cause the target to transfer the set of parameters in effect for the
- initiator of the RESERVE command to the parameters used for commands from the
- third party device. Any subsequent command issued by the third-party device
- is executed according to the mode parameters in effect for the initiator
- that sent the RESERVE command.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: This transfer of the mode parameters is applicable to
- target devices which store mode information independently for different
- initiators. This mechanism allows an initiator to set the mode parameters
- of a target for the use of a copy master (i.e., the third-party device).
- The third-party copy master may subsequently issue a MODE SELECT command to
- modify the mode parameters.
-
- 9.2.10.2. Superseding Reservations
- An initiator that currently has a logical unit reserved may modify the
- current reservation by issuing another RESERVE UNIT command to the same
- logical unit. The superseding reservation shall release the current
- reservation if the superseding reservation request is granted. The current
- reservation shall not be modified if the superseding reservation request
- cannot be granted. If the superseding reservation cannot be granted because
- of conflicts with a previous reservation (other than the current reservation),
- then the target shall return RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
-
- IMPLEMENTORS NOTE: Superseding reservations allow the SCSI device ID to be
- changed on a reservation using the third-party reservation option. This
- capability is necessary for certain situations when using COMPARE, COPY, and
- COPY AND VERIFY commands.
