LIBSAS link error. > [Jack Wang] What do you mean by "LIBSAS link error", OPEN_REJECT(CONNECTION RATE NOT SUPPORTED)? LIBSAS only get the error event through LLDD. According to SAS2r15 7.8.3 A SAS initiator port shall set the initial CONNECTION RATE field to: a) the highest supported connection rate supported by a potential pathway as determined during the discover process (e.g., based on the logical link rates of each logical link reported in the SMP DISCOVER responses); or b) the logical link rate of the logical phy used to transmit the OPEN address frame. If a SAS initiator port selected a connection rate based on discover process information but the connection request results in OPEN_REJECT (CONNECTION RATE NOT SUPPORTED), then the discover process information is no longer current and the discover process should be run again. -- 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
