tran_tgt_probe(9E)

The tran_tgt_probe(9E) entry point enables the HBA to customize the operation of scsi_probe(9F), if necessary. This entry point is called only when the target driver calls scsi_probe(9F).

The HBA driver can retain the normal operation of scsi_probe(9F) by calling scsi_hba_probe(9F) and returning its return value.

This entry point is not required, and if not needed, the HBA driver should set the tran_tgt_probe vector in the scsi_hba_tran(9S) structure to point to scsi_hba_probe(9F).

scsi_probe(9F) allocates a scsi_inquiry(9S) structure and sets the sd_inq field of the scsi_device(9S) structure to point to the data in scsi_inquiry(9S). scsi_hba_probe(9F) handles this automatically. scsi_unprobe(9F) then frees the scsi_inquiry(9S) data.

Other than during the allocation of scsi_inquiry(9S) data, normally handled by scsi_hba_probe(9F), tran_tgt_probe(9E) must be stateless, as the same SCSI device might call it multiple times.

The allocation of the scsi_inquiry(9S) structure is handled automatically by scsi_hba_probe(9F). This is only of concern if custom scsi_probe(9F) handling is desired.
