But nothing came of a fix for that unfortunately.
By chance do you know if any earlier kernel version worked ok for you?
I'm having issues on kernel 6.12.12 and 6.13.7 with the pm80xx0 driver
using a PMC/Sierra 8001 card pulled from a SUN/Oracle ZFS Storage
Appliance. Specifically, the card does not appear to handle daisy-
chained multipath configurations correctly, and either locks up at boot,
crashes during runtime, or doesn't enumerate the disks in the JBODs
correctly. My topology looks like the following:
┌─────────────┐
│ PM8001 │
│ ▒A ▒ │B
└─║─────────║─┘
║ ╚═════╗
┌─║───────────┐ ║
│ ║ JBOD 1 │ ║
│ ║ │ ║
│ ▒ A ▒ │B ║
└─║─────────║─┘ ║
┌─║─────────║─┐ ║
│ ║ JBOD 2 ║ │ ║
│ ║ ║ │ ║
│ ▒ A ▒ │B ║
└─║─────────║─┘ ║
┌─║─────────║─┐ ║
│ ║ JBOD 3 ║ │ ║
│ ║ ║ │ ║
│ ▒ A ▒ │B ║
└───────────║─┘ ║
║ ║
╚═════╝
Each JBOD has two dual-ported controllers on it, allowing for multiple
shelves to be chained together and the controlling server to be attached
at each end. The same topology works with an LSI/Broadcom card.
The problem can be divided into three separate instances:
1 - failure to boot
The driver crashes outright on boot when enumerating disks. Kernel logs

2 - runtime crash
This happens if the cables are reseated or the JBODs restarted after the
device has successfully booted, usually by leaving the cables unplugged.
The disk enumeration fails to complete, leading to a call trace in the
kernel logs and typically causes the JBOD controllers to get stuck in an
unhealthy state (see case 3). Full kernel logs for 6.12.12 are available
at https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gist.github.com/Nihlus/
