4Description:
5		This file contains the enumerated host ID for the Intel
6		SCU controller. The Intel(R) C600 Series Chipset SATA/SAS
7		Storage Control Unit embeds up to two 4-port controllers in
8		a single PCI device.  The controllers are enumerated in order
9		which usually means the lowest number scsi_host corresponds
10		with the first controller, but this association is not
11		guaranteed.  The 'isci_id' attribute unambiguously identifies
12		the controller index: '0' for the first controller,
13		'1' for the second.

18Description:	This file contains the current status of the "SSD Smart Path"
19		feature of HP Smart Array RAID controllers using the hpsa
20		driver.  SSD Smart Path, when enabled permits the driver to
21		send i/o requests directly to physical devices that are part
22		of a logical drive, bypassing the controllers firmware RAID
23		stack for a performance advantage when possible.  A value of
24		'1' indicates the feature is enabled, and the controller may
25		use the direct i/o path to physical devices.  A value of zero
26		means the feature is disabled and the controller may not use
27		the direct i/o path to physical devices.  This setting is
28		controller wide, affecting all configured logical drives on the
29		controller.  This file is readable and writable.

35Description:
36		(RW) This parameter allows the user to read and set the link
37		(interface) power management.
38
39		There are four possible options:
40
41		min_power: Tell the controller to try to make the link use the
42		least possible power when possible. This may sacrifice some
43		performance due to increased latency when coming out of lower
44		power states.
45
46		max_performance: Generally, this means no power management.
47		Tell the controller to have performance be a priority over power
48		management.
49
50		medium_power: Tell the controller to enter a lower power state
51		when possible, but do not enter the lowest power state, thus
52		improving latency over min_power setting.
53
54		med_power_with_dipm: Identical to the existing medium_power
55		setting except that it enables dipm (device initiated power
56		management) on top, which makes it match the Windows IRST (Intel
57		Rapid Storage Technology) driver settings. This setting is also
58		close to min_power, except that:
59		a) It does not use host-initiated slumber mode, but it does
60		allow device-initiated slumber
61		b) It does not enable low power device sleep mode (DevSlp).

68Description:
69		em_message: (RW) Enclosure management support. For the LED
70		protocol, writes and reads correspond to the LED message format
71		as defined in the AHCI spec.
72
73		The user must turn sw_activity (under /sys/block/*/device/) OFF
74		it they wish to control the activity LED via the em_message
75		file.
76
77		em_message_type: (RO) Displays the current enclosure management
78		protocol that is being used by the driver (for eg. LED, SAF-TE,
79		SES-2, SGPIO etc).

102Description:
103		(RW) Allows access to AHCI EM (enclosure management) buffer
104		directly if the host supports EM.
105
106		For eg. the AHCI driver supports SGPIO EM messages but the
107		SATA/AHCI specs do not define the SGPIO message format of the EM
108		buffer. Different hardware(HW) vendors may have different
109		definitions. With the em_buffer attribute, this issue can be
110		solved by allowing HW vendors to provide userland drivers and
111		tools for their SGPIO initiators.
