If more than one device is to be excluded, target ID's are separated by commas. .Pp Devices can be excluded from .Nm control for a specific adapter by setting the following variable in .Xr loader.conf 5 : .Bd -literal -offset indent dev.mpr.X.exclude_ids=Y .Ed .Pp where X is the adapter number and Y is the target ID of the device. If more than one device is to be excluded, target ID's are separated by commas. .Sh DEBUGGING To enable debugging prints from the .Nm driver, set the .Bd -literal -offset indent hw.mpr.X.debug_level .Ed .Pp variable, where X is the adapter number, either in .Xr loader.conf 5 or via .Xr sysctl 8 . The following bits have the described effects: .Bd -literal -offset indent 0x0001 Enable informational prints. 0x0002 Enable prints for driver faults. 0x0004 Enable prints for controller events. 0x0008 Enable prints for controller logging. 0x0010 Enable prints for tracing recovery operations. 0x0020 Enable prints for parameter errors and programming bugs. 0x0040 Enable prints for system initialization operations. 0x0080 Enable prints for more detailed information. 0x0100 Enable prints for user-generated commands. 0x0200 Enable prints for device mapping. 0x0400 Enable prints for tracing through driver functions. .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr cam 4 , .Xr cd 4 , .Xr ch 4 , .Xr da 4 , .Xr mps 4 , .Xr mpt 4 , .Xr pci 4 , .Xr sa 4 , .Xr scsi 4 , .Xr targ 4 , .Xr loader.conf 5 , .Xr sysctl 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm driver first appeared in FreeBSD 9.3. .Sh AUTHORS The .Nm driver was originally written by .An -nosplit .An Scott Long Aq scottl@FreeBSD.org .
