Table 82: Page 08 (Caching Parameters)
The caching parameters page defines parameters that affect the use of the cache.
•
IC
(Initiator Control) bit of one specifies that the drive will honor the following parameters to control cache
segmentation and pre-fetch: SIZE, FSW, LBCSS, Number of Cache Segments, Cache Segment Size. The drive will
never pre-fetch less data than specified by ABPF, MF, Demand Read Retention Priority, Write Retention Priority,
Disable Pre-fetch Transfer Length, Minimum Pre-fetch, Maximum Pre-fetch, and Maximum Pre-fetch Ceiling, but
may pre-fetch more based on internal cache algorithms. When the IC bit is set to zero, all the parameters listed above
are ignored, and an internal caching algorithm is used.
•
ABPF
(Abort Pre-fetch) bit of one, with DRA set to zero, causes the drive to abort the pre-fetch upon receipt of a new
command. ABPF set to one takes precedence over Minimum Pre-fetch. When ABPF is zero, with DRA set to zero,
the termination of any active pre-fetch is dependant upon the other parameters in this page.
•
CAP
(Caching Analysis Permitted ) is not supported and is ignored.
•
DISC
(Discontinuity) is not supported and is ignored.
•
SIZE
(Size Enable) bit when set to one indicates that the Cache Segment Size is to be used to control caching segmenta-
tion. When SIZE is set to zero, the Initiator requests that the Number of Cache Segments is to be used to control cach-
