irq1,irq2, etc.
disable:Y
disable:N
reserve_mode:0
reserve_mode:1
reserve_mode:2
reserve_list:h,b,t,l,h,b,t,l,...
reverse_scan:Y
reverse_scan:N
max_ids:x
rescan:Y
rescan:N
* The driver parameters reserve_mode and rescan:N require Intel RAID Controller SRCU32s with
firmware version FW x.23.00 or higher.
The current default settings of the driver are:
"gdth=disable:N,reserve_mode:1,reverse_scan:N,max_ids:127,rescan:N."
If "gdth" is loaded as a module, these parameters can also be added with a special syntax.
IRQ parameters are entered as "IRQ=" (for example, IRQ=10). Several parameters are not
separated with a comma (,"") but a space (" "). All ":" are substituted with "=," all "Y" with
"1" and all "N" with "0."
Default: "modprobe gdth disable=0 reserve_mode=1 reverse_scan=0 max_ids=127 rescan=0."
