Yes, the SATA disk is already attached to the expander.
It is hard to follow this.

So is the local phy disabled initially? Or is was it initially enabled
and we disable+re-enable just when attaching, so that there is a race?
When local phy is enabled and disabled repeatedly, the ex_phy status
causing the expander may change, such as being removed. And the link
rate of the SATA device has also changed, such as becoming
SAS_PHY_RESET_IN_PROGRESS.
The following BUG() will be triggered with a small probability:
[562240.051046] sas: phy19 part of wide port with phy16
Where is this print in the code? I see "part of a wide port with
phy%02d" in sas_discover_dev()
In sas_rediscover() as follow, the latest printing has changed a bit,
what I posted is an old version of the log. The latest version also has
similar problems.
static int sas_rediscover(struct domain_device *dev, const int phy_id)
{
struct expander_device *ex = &dev->ex_dev;
struct ex_phy *changed_phy = &ex->ex_phy[phy_id];
int i;
bool last = true; /* is this the last phy of the port */
for (i = 0; i < ex->num_phys; i++) {
struct ex_phy *phy = &ex->ex_phy[i];
if (i == phy_id)
continue;
if (SAS_ADDR(phy->attached_sas_addr) ==
SAS_ADDR(changed_phy->attached_sas_addr)) {
SAS_DPRINTK("phy%d part of wide port with "
"phy%d\n", phy_id, i);
last = false;
break;
}
}
return sas_rediscover_dev(dev, phy_id, last);
}

Yes.

it was
not deleted from the phy_list of the parent port.
2. The rate of the newly connected SATA device to phy0 is less than 1.5G,
and its sas_address was set to 0. After creating port 7:7:0
is 7:7:0 the port which the SATA device is part of?
, it attempts to
add the expander's other zero-addressed phy to this port.
3. When adding phy19 to port-7:7:0
It's a new port create by phy00:U:5. after the log:
[562240.062536] sas: ex 500e004aaaaaaa1f phy0 new device attached
[562240.062616] sas: ex 500e004aaaaaaa1f phy00:U:5 attached:
0000000000000000 (stp)
Which would be the incorrect thing to do, right? I am basing that on my
assumption that 7:7:0 is the port which the SATA device is part of.
Yes. It is created by the sata device with zero address.
