NAME

cfumass – USB device side support for Mass Storage Class Transport

CONTENTS

SYNOPSIS

This driver can be compiled into the kernel by placing these lines in the kernel configuration file: device usb device usb_template device ctl device cfumass

The driver module can also be loaded at boot by adding this line to loader.conf(5):

cfumass_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

The cfumass driver provides device side support for emulating an USB mass storage device compliant with the USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only (BBB) Transport specification, implemented as a ctl(4) frontend driver.

To use cfumass:

Upon loading, the driver creates a ctl(4) port named cfumass, presenting the first LUN mapped for that port - usually LUN 0 - to the USB host. See ctl.conf(5) and ctld(8) for details on configuring the LUN. See the cfumass_enable and cfumass_dir rc(8) variables in rc.conf(5) for an automated way to configure it at boot.

SYSCTL VARIABLES

These variables are available as both sysctl(8) variables and loader(8) tunables:
hw.usb.cfumass.debug
  Verbosity level for log messages from the cfumass driver. Set to 0 to disable logging or 1 to warn about potential problems. Larger values enable debugging output. Defaults to 1.
hw.usb.cfumass.ignore_stop
  Ignore START STOP UNIT SCSI commands with START and LOEJ bits cleared. Some initiators send that command to stop the target when the user attempts to gracefully eject the drive, but fail to start it when the drive is reconnected. Set to 0 to handle the command in a standards-compliant way, 1 to ignore it and log a warning, or 2 to ignore it silently. Defaults to 1.
hw.usb.cfumass.max_lun
  Max LUN number to report to the initiator (USB host). Must be between 0 and 15. Some initiators incorrectly handle values larger than 0. Defaults to 0.
