It probably uses a different chip. The text and images show it's a
QLogic FAS216 (which is the same as a FAS236, FAS236 is the differential
variant). The type should more accurately be presented as "FAS2x6" since
you can't tell which type it is in software.
FWIW, the old driver, removed in commit a2c6ef71364e ("[SCSI] NCR53C9x:
remove driver", has this:
- if(family_code == 0x02) {
- if ((version & 7) == 2)
- esp->erev = fas216;
- else
- esp->erev = fas236;
The fas236 type was from the original Sun-only esp driver (I guess the
only Suns with a FAS2x6 had differential variants hence the name). I
got a confirmation for the detection of the FAS216 from someone with a
Cyberstorm board, so that one was added then (including the specific
match on version). Since the NCR53C9x driver was never used on a Sun,
this was never confirmed for the FAS236.
Kind regards,
Kars.
