All of the mpt cards use a fat firmware model meaning they take in pure SCSI commands and do the translation to SATA if necessary all within the firmware, so the first step would be to make sure your card has the latest firmware. I've updated the card to the latest firmware Oct 19 14:11:45 rhea kernel: mpt2sas0: LSISAS2116: FWVersion(07.00.00.00), ChipRevision(0x01), BiosVersion(07.01.00.00) e.g. from version 03.00.00.00 to version 07.00.00.00 and suddenly all the problems go away. So I'm closing this bug. (And I also note that there's a lot of low-hanging fruit here - we really should make it easy for users to a) know that there is a firmware update; b) make it easy update the firmware... could maybe do this in the udisks/palimpsest stack -maybe start by just support a couple of vendors. I don't know.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
