Description? Since libsas has no firmware, surely some explanation is
required.
Indeed. Looks bogus at first glance?
I was finding all requested but not exported firmware in scsi driver for
generating dump initrd use.
In sas_scsi_host.c, request_firmware is called with "sas_addr", sas_addr
neither builtin nor exported. Don't sas_addr a firmware? Please correct
me. thanks
No, it's not requesting any firmware ... it's a slight misuse of the
firmware mechanism that allows a libsas based driver to be given a SAS
address if it doesn't have an internal nsvram to store one.

I see, thanks
