.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
utility is a control program that provides the user access and control to the
.Fx
.Xr ata 4
subsystem.
.Pp
The
.Nm
utility
can cause severe system crashes and loss of data if used improperly.
Please
exercise caution when using this command!
.Pp
The
.Ar channel
argument is the number of the ATA channel on which to operate.
The following commands are supported:
.Bl -tag -width "rebuild"
.It Ic attach
Attach an ATA
.Ar channel .
Devices on the channel are probed and attached as
is done on boot.
.It Ic detach
Detach an ATA
.Ar channel .
Devices on the channel are removed from the kernel,
and all outstanding transfers etc. are returned back to the system marked
as failed.
.It Ic reinit
Reinitialize an ATA
.Ar channel .
Both devices on the channel are reset and
initialized to the parameters the ATA driver has stored internally.
Devices that have gone bad and no longer respond to the probe, or devices
that have physically been removed, are removed from the kernel.
Likewise are devices that show up during a reset, probed and attached.
.It Ic create
Create a
.Ar type
ATA RAID.
The type can be
.Cm RAID0
(stripe),
.Cm RAID1
(mirror),
.Cm RAID0+1
or
.Cm SPAN
(JBOD).
In case the RAID has a
.Cm RAID0
component,
the
.Ar interleave
must be specified in number of sectors.
The RAID will be created
of the individual disks named
.Bk -words
.Ar disk0 ... diskN .
.Ek
.Pp
Although the ATA driver allows for creating an ATA RAID on disks with any
controller, there are restrictions.
It is only possible to boot on
an array if it is either located on a
.Dq real
ATA RAID controller like
the Promise or Highpoint controllers, or if the RAID declared is of
.Cm RAID1
or
.Cm SPAN
type; in case of a
.Cm SPAN ,
the partition to boot must
reside on the first disk in the SPAN.
.It Ic delete
Delete a RAID array on a RAID capable ATA controller.
.It Ic rebuild
Rebuild a RAID1 array on a RAID capable ATA controller.
.It Ic status
Get the status of an ATA RAID.
.It Ic mode
Without the two mode arguments, the current transfer modes of both
devices are printed.
If the mode arguments are given, the ATA driver
is asked to change the transfer modes to those given.
The ATA driver
will reject modes that are not supported by the hardware.
Modes are given like
.Dq Li PIO3 ,
.Dq Li udma2 ,
.Dq Li udma100 ,
case does not matter.
If one of the devices mode should not be changed, use a nonexisting mode
as argument (i.e.\&
.Dq Li XXX ) ,
and the mode will remain unchanged.
.Pp
Currently supported modes are:
.Cm BIOSDMA ,
.Cm PIO0
(alias
.Cm BIOSPIO ) ,
.Cm PIO1 , PIO2 , PIO3 , PIO4 ,
.Cm WDMA2 ,
.Cm UDMA2
(alias
.Cm UDMA33 ) ,
.Cm UDMA4
(alias
.Cm UDMA66 ) ,
.Cm UDMA5
(alias
.Cm UDMA100 )
and
.Cm UDMA6
(alias
.Cm UDMA133 ) .
.It Ic info
Show info about the attached devices on the
.Ar channel .
The device name and manufacture/version strings are shown.
.It Ic cap
Show detailed info about the device on
.Ar channel device
where device is 0 for master and 1 for slave.
.It Ic enclosure
Show detailed info about the enclosure on
.Ar channel device
where device is 0 for master and 1 for slave.
Fan RPM speed, enclosure temperature, 5V and 12V levels are shown.
.It Ic list
Show info about all attached devices on all active controllers.
.El
.Sh EXAMPLES
To see the devices' current access modes, use the command line:
.Pp
.Dl "atacontrol mode 0"
.Pp
which results in the modes of the devices being displayed as a string
like this:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
Master = WDMA2
Slave = PIO4
.Ed
.Pp
This means that ata0-master is in DMA mode,
ata0-slave is in PIO mode,
and so forth.
You can set the mode with
.Nm
and a string like the above,
for example:
.Pp
.Dl "atacontrol mode 0 PIO4 PIO4"
.Pp
The new modes are set as soon as the
.Nm
command returns.
