✨ IIR(4) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the iir manual page — that's the Intel Integrated RAID controller and ICP Vortex driver, and yes this is section 4 of the Kernel Interfaces Manual, iykyk 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

iir — Intel Integrated RAID controller and ICP Vortex driver

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

okay so if you wanna compile this driver into the kernel (main character energy, no module loading needed), you drop these lines into your kernel configuration file:

device pci
device scbus
device iir

or, alternatively, if you'd rather load the driver as a module at boot time, you put this line into loader.conf(5):

iir_load="YES"

literally that's it, two ways to do the same thing, pick your vibe 🦋

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

The iir driver claims to interface with the Intel integrated RAID controller cards, and all versions of the ICP Vortex controllers (including FC). like, all of them. the whole squad 🫶

👑 HARDWARE 👑

Controllers that the iir driver supports include:

  • Intel RAID Controller SRCMR
  • Intel Server RAID Controller U3-l (SRCU31a)
  • Intel Server RAID Controller U3-1L (SRCU31La)
  • Intel Server RAID Controller U3-2 (SRCU32)
  • All past and future releases of Intel and ICP RAID Controllers.

and then, the ones that are giving retro 😭:

  • Intel RAID Controller SRCU21 (discontinued)
  • Intel RAID Controller SRCU31 (older revision, not compatible)
  • Intel RAID Controller SRCU31L (older revision, not compatible)
ngl bestie, heads up: the SRCU31 and SRCU31L can be updated via a firmware update available from Intel. so like, not all hope is lost ✨
