I was wondering if others have the same issue with the disk ordering of the mvsas driver. I use AOC-SASLP-MV8 Cards (Marvell 88SE6480 Controller) When I boot my system, it is detecting disks in this order Detecting Port 3 Detecting Port 2 Detecting Port 1 Detecting Port 0 Detecting Port 7 Detecting Port 6 Detecting Port 5 Detecting Port 4 In the summary it gives ID's to disks and says: ID:0 Port:3 ID:1 Port:2 ID:2 Port:1 ID:3 Port:0 ID:4 Port:7 ID:5 Port:6 ID:6 Port:5 ID:7 Port:4 In linux /dev/sdb is in slot 3 (disk 4) In linux /dev/sdc is in slot 2 (disk 3) In linux /dev/sdd is in slot 1 (disk 2) In linux /dev/sde is in slot 0 (disk 1) In linux /dev/sdf is in slot 7 (disk 8) In linux /dev/sdg is in slot 6 (disk 7) In linux /dev/sdh is in slot 5 (disk 6) In linux /dev/sdi is in slot 4 (disk 5) Previous drivers I used (from scst and from supermicro) assigned /dev/sdb to slot 0, sdc to slot 1, etc.. like it should. With this driver it suddenly changed.
