MPS driver and latest firmware

[Wes Morgan]

Hi all,

I have an LSI 9201-16I controller that I updated to the latest firmware
(20.00.00.00). Immediately I began seeing CAM errors like this:

Oct 22 19:43:56 volatile kernel: (da13:mps0:0:13:0): CAM status: SCSI
Status Error
Oct 22 19:43:56 volatile kernel: (da13:mps0:0:13:0): SCSI status: Check
Condition
Oct 22 19:43:56 volatile kernel: (da13:mps0:0:13:0): SCSI sense: ABORTED
COMMAND asc:47,3 (Information unit iuCRC error detected)
Oct 22 19:43:56 volatile kernel: (da13:mps0:0:13:0): Retrying command (per
sense data)

It did not seem to cause any data corruption, but needless to say that kind
of error is disconcerting. I was able to force a downgrade to the
19.00.00.00 firmware in FreeDOS, after which everything returned to normal.

The system is an up-to-date 10.1-PRERELEASE kernel & world.

Just an FYI for anyone who might update the firmware. I'm guessing that
when the driver updates to 20.00.00.00 this won't be an issue.
