Chapter 5. The proc File System
The primary file in this directory is
SCSI device. From this listing, the type of device, as well as the model name, vendor, SCSI
channel and ID data is available.
For example, if a system contains a SCSI CD-ROM, a tape drive, a hard drive, and a RAID
controller, this file looks similar to the following:
Attached devices: Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 05 Lun: 00 Vendor: NEC Model:
CD-ROM DRIVE:466 Rev: 1.06 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi1
Channel: 00 Id: 06 Lun: 00 Vendor: ARCHIVE Model: Python 04106-XXX Rev: 7350
Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi2 Channel: 00 Id:
06 Lun: 00 Vendor: DELL Model: 1x6 U2W SCSI BP Rev: 5.35 Type: Processor
ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Host: scsi2 Channel: 02 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor:
MegaRAID Model: LD0 RAID5 34556R Rev: 1.01 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI
revision: 02
Each SCSI driver used by the system has its own directory within
files specific to each SCSI controller using that driver. From the previous example,
and
directories are present, since two drivers are in use. The files in each of the
megaraid/
directories typically contain an I/O address range, IRQ information, and statistics for the SCSI
controller using that driver. Each controller can report a different type and amount of
information. The Adaptec AIC-7880 Ultra SCSI host adapter's file in this example system
produces the following output:
Adaptec AIC7xxx driver version: 5.1.20/3.2.4 Compile Options: TCQ Enabled

This output reveals the transfer speed to the SCSI devices connected to the controller based on
channel ID, as well as detailed statistics concerning the amount and sizes of files read or written
by that device. For example, this controller is communicating with the CD-ROM at 20
72
, which contains a list of every recognized
/proc/scsi/scsi
, which contains
/proc/scsi/
aic7xxx/
