TRAN_RESET(9E)							TRAN_RESET(9E)

NAME
       tran_reset - reset a SCSI bus or target

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/scsi/scsi.h>

	int prefixtran_reset(struct scsi_address *ap, int level);

INTERFACE LEVEL
       Solaris architecture specific (Solaris DDI).

PARAMETERS
       ap
		 Pointer to the scsi_address(9S) structure.

       level
		 The level of reset required.

DESCRIPTION
       The tran_reset() vector in the scsi_hba_tran(9S) structure must be ini‐
       tialized during the HBA driver's attach(9E) to point to	an  HBA	 entry
       point to be called when a target driver calls scsi_reset(9F).

       tran_reset() must reset either the SCSI bus, a SCSI target device, or a
       SCSI logical unit as specified by level.

       level must be one of the following:

       RESET_ALL
			Reset the SCSI bus.

       RESET_TARGET
			Reset the target specified by ap.

       RESET_LUN
			Reset the logical unit specified by ap.

       tran_reset should set the pkt_reason field of all  outstanding  packets
       in the transport layer associated with each target or logical unit that
       was successfully reset to CMD_RESET and the pkt_statistics  field  must
       be  OR'ed  with	either	STAT_BUS_RESET	(if the SCSI bus was reset) or
       STAT_DEV_RESET (if the target or logical unit was reset).

       The HBA driver should use a SCSI Bus Device Reset Message  to  reset  a
       target  device.	The  HBA  driver should use a  SCSI Logical Unit Reset
       Message to reset a logical unit.

       Packets that are in the transport layer but not yet active on  the  bus
       should  be returned with pkt_reason set to CMD_RESET and pkt_statistics
       OR'ed with STAT_ABORTED.

       Support for RESET_LUN is optional but strongly encouraged for  new  and
       updated	HBA  drivers.  If an HBA driver provides RESET_LUN support, it
       must also create the lun-reset capability with a value of zero for each
       target  device  instance	 represented  by  a  valid ap. The HBA is also
       required to provide the means to return the current value of  the  lun-
       reset  capability  in its tran_getcap(9E) routine, as well as the means
       to change the value of the lun_reset capability in its  tran_getcap(9E)
       routine.

RETURN VALUES
       tran_reset() should return:

       1
	     on success.

       0
	     on failure.

CONTEXT
       The tran_reset() function can be called from user or interrupt context.
       This requirement comes from scsi_reset().

       Writing Device Drivers

NOTES
       If  pkt_reason already indicates that an earlier error had occurred for
       a particular pkt, tran_reset() should  not  overwrite  pkt_reason  with
       CMD_RESET.
