This thread has made me wonder.  I have a RAID-5 array connected to a DPT-5
controller using the "asr" driver in 4.1.1-R, but it is not using tagged
queueing.  The DPT-5 does use tagged queueing on another disk on the same
controller:

	% camcontrol tags da0
	(pass0:asr0:0:0:0): device openings: 255
	% camcontrol tags da1 -v
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): dev_openings  1
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): dev_active    0
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): devq_openings 1
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): devq_queued   0
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): held          0
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): mintags       0
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): maxtags       255

and from a verbose boot:

domino0: <Adaptec Caching Memory Controller> mem 0xfc000000-0xfdffffff,0xf8200000-0xf820ffff irq 23 at device 3.0 on pci1

da1: 17507MB (35854336 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 2231C)


The RAID-5 is a "2+1" of three Seagate 39103LW drives.  On a different machine
with just an NCR controller, I do get tagged queueing with the drives:

da0 at sym0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da0: <SEAGATE ST39103LW 0002> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-2 device 
da0: 40.000MB/s transfers (20.000MHz, offset 15, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled
da0: 8683MB (17783240 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 1106C)


Any idea why I don't see tagged queueing?  Am I just confused (i.e., it
shouldn't be enabled with a DPT-5 with a RAID-5)?  Is I2O doing it under
(and thus, transparent to) CAM?

If I use "tags da1 -N 100", and start several concurrent operations on the
disk, I do see tags in use:

	% camcontrol tags da1 -v
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): dev_openings  91
	(pass1:asr0:0:1:0): dev_active    9
