When we discover the PHY is empty in sas_rediscover_dev(), the PHY information (like negotiated linkrate) is not updated. As such, for a user examining sysfs for that PHY, they would see incorrect values: root@(none)$ cd /sys/class/sas_phy/phy-0:0:20 root@(none)$ more negotiated_linkrate 3.0 Gbit root@(none)$ echo 0 > enable root@(none)$ more negotiated_linkrate 3.0 Gbit So fix this, simply discover the PHY again, even though we know it's empty; in the above example, this gives us: root@(none)$ more negotiated_linkrate Phy disabled We must do this after unregistering the device associated with the PHY (in sas_unregister_devs_sas_addr()).
