+What: /sys/class/infiniband_srp/srp-<hca>-<port_number>/add_target
+Date: January 2, 2006
+KernelVersion: 2.6.15
+Contact: linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org
+Description: Interface for making ib_srp connect to a new target.
+ One can request ib_srp to connect to a new target by writing
+ a comma-separated list of login parameters to this sysfs
+ attribute. The supported parameters are:
+ * id_ext, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the eight
+ byte identifier extension in the 16-byte SRP target port
+ identifier. The target port identifier is sent by ib_srp
+ to the target in the SRP_LOGIN_REQ request.
+ * ioc_guid, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the eight
+ byte I/O controller GUID portion of the 16-byte target port
+ identifier.
+ * dgid, a 32-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
+ destination GID.
+ * pkey, a four-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
+ InfiniBand partition key.
+ * service_id, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
+ InfiniBand service ID used to establish communication with
+ the SRP target. How to find out the value of the service ID
+ is specified in the documentation of the SRP target.
+ * max_sect, a decimal number specifying the maximum number of
+ 512-byte sectors to be transferred via a single SCSI command.
+ * max_cmd_per_lun, a decimal number specifying the maximum
+ number of outstanding commands for a single LUN.
+ * io_class, a hexadecimal number specifying the SRP I/O class.
+ Must be either 0xff00 (rev 10) or 0x0100 (rev 16a). The I/O
+ class defines the format of the SRP initiator and target
+ port identifiers.
+ * initiator_ext, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
+ identifier extension portion of the SRP initiator port
+ identifier. This data is sent by the initiator to the target
+ in the SRP_LOGIN_REQ request.
+ * cmd_sg_entries, a number in the range 1..255 that specifies
+ the maximum number of data buffer descriptors stored in the
+ SRP_CMD information unit itself. With allow_ext_sg=0 the
+ parameter cmd_sg_entries defines the maximum S/G list length
+ for a single SRP_CMD, and commands whose S/G list length
+ exceeds this limit after S/G list collapsing will fail.
+ * allow_ext_sg, whether ib_srp is allowed to include a partial
+ memory descriptor list in an SRP_CMD instead of the entire
+ list. If a partial memory descriptor list has been included
+ in an SRP_CMD the remaining memory descriptors are
+ communicated from initiator to target via an additional RDMA
+ transfer. Setting allow_ext_sg to 1 increases the maximum
+ amount of data that can be transferred between initiator and
+ target via a single SCSI command. Since not all SRP target
+ implementations support partial memory descriptor lists the
+ default value for this option is 0.
+ * sg_tablesize, a number in the range 1..2048 specifying the
+ maximum S/G list length the SCSI layer is allowed to pass to
+ ib_srp. Specifying a value that exceeds cmd_sg_entries is
+ only safe with partial memory descriptor list support enabled
+ (allow_ext_sg=1).

+Description:
+ This file appears when a physical PCIe device supports SR-IOV.
+ Userspace applications can read and write to this file to
+ determine and control the enablement or disablement of Virtual
+ Functions (VFs) on the physical function (PF). A read of this
+ file will return the number of VFs that are enabled on this PF.
+ A number written to this file will enable the specified

+ file and check that the value is zero, and then write the number
+ of VFs that should be enabled on the PF; the value written
+ should be less than or equal to the value in the sriov_totalvfs
+ file. A userspace application wanting to disable the VFs would
+ write a zero to this file. The core ensures that valid values
+ are written to this file, and returns errors when values are not
+ valid. For example, writing a 2 to this file when sriov_numvfs
+ is not 0 and not 2 already will return an error. Writing a 10
+ when the value of sriov_totalvfs is 8 will return an error.
