<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">aacraid</code> driver provides support for
    the Adaptec by PMC RAID controllers, including Series 6/7/8 and upcoming
    families.</p>
<p class="Pp">The RAID containers are handled via the
    <code class="Nm">aacraidp0</code> bus. The physical buses are represented by
    the <code class="Nm">aacraidp?</code> devices (beginning with aacraidp1).
    These devices enable the SCSI pass-passthrough interface and allows devices
    connected to the card such as CD-ROMs to be available via the CAM
    <a class="Xr">scsi(4)</a> subsystem. Note that not all cards allow this
    interface to be enabled.</p>
<p class="Pp">The <span class="Pa">/dev/aacraid?</span> device nodes provide
    access to the management interface of the controller. One node exists per
    installed card. If the <span class="Pa">aacraid_linux.ko</span> and
    <span class="Pa">linux.ko</span> modules are loaded, the Linux-compatible
    <a class="Xr">ioctl(2)</a> interface for the management device will be
    enabled and will allow Linux-based management applications to control the
    card.</p>

<p class="Pp">Compiling with <code class="Dv">AACRAID_DEBUG</code> set to a
    number between 0 and 3 will enable increasingly verbose debug messages.</p>
<p class="Pp">The adapter can send status and alert messages asynchronously to
    the driver. These messages are printed on the system console, and are also
    queued for retrieval by a management application.</p>
