Introduction
FreeBSD doesn't enable target mode support for QLogic cards, so we need to compile a custom kernel. We'll assume we have installed a release and we have a populated /usr/src.
Create the kernel configuration file
cat <<EOF >/tmp/FCTARGET include GENERIC ident FCTARGET options ISP_TARGET_MODE EOF sudo install -g staff -o aram /tmp/FCTARGET /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf
Create /etc/make.conf
cat <<EOF >/tmp/make.conf # Build and install FCTARGET and GENERIC kernels # FCTARGET will be installed by default. KERNCONF=FCTARGET GENERIC EOF sudo install -g staff -o aram /tmp/make.conf /etc
Create /usr/obj
Assuming you have ZFS:
sudo zfs create zroot/usr/obj sudo chown aram:staff /usr/obj
Build and install the kernels
Build the kernels:
cd /usr/src # builds FCTARGET and GENERIC make buildkernel -j24
Install the kernels:
# installs FCTARGET sudo make -j24 installkernel sudo make -j24 installkernel KERNCONF=GENERIC INSTKERNNAME=GENERIC
Load isp(4) driver firmware in /etc/loader.conf
As root:
sudo su - echo ispfw_load="YES" >> /boot/loader.conf
isp(4) is already compiled into the kernel, no need to load it.
Reboot and test
sudo reboot
