If you want to upgrade your controller fw, I need the contents of all the attributes in /sys/class/scsi_host/host#. Just yesterday we got Warner Wakko upgraded, and I believe it might of solved his problems. I'm not sure what problems your experiencing, as this thread has been hard to follow.
I would like to point out there is a firmware request for sending SEP request, for instance setting LEDS. Here is a copy of the structure. We call this function to set LED when there is SMART errors (for non-raid devices). For RAID, the firmware handles it. Is this what your looking for?
Function = MPI_FUNCTION_SCSI_ENCLOSURE_PROCESSOR:
typedef struct _MSG_SEP_REQUEST
{
U8 TargetID; /* 00h */
U8 Bus; /* 01h */
U8 ChainOffset; /* 02h */
U8 Function; /* 03h */
U8 Action; /* 04h */
U8 Flags; /* 05h */
U8 Reserved1; /* 06h */
U8 MsgFlags; /* 07h */
U32 MsgContext; /* 08h */
U32 SlotStatus; /* 0Ch */
U32 Reserved2; /* 10h */
U32 Reserved3; /* 14h */
U32 Reserved4; /* 18h */
U16 Slot; /* 1Ch */
U16 EnclosureHandle; /* 1Eh */
} MSG_SEP_REQUEST, MPI_POINTER PTR_MSG_SEP_REQUEST,
SEPRequest_t, MPI_POINTER pSEPRequest_t;
