I've made some experiments with the card sample I've got and indeed
found the problem. I believe it is a bug in the ASMedia ASM1062 chip
firmware that wasn't triggered on other OSes. I've just committed small
patch to FreeBSD HEAD at r309251 to workaround the problem. With this
patch on very
according to the msgs, the controller pretended to be a 12-port host
to hide port multipliers behind it? Creative, but then any magic
(or bugs) it does remains vendor-specific and unknown to outside world.
Looks there is no firmware or jumpers to change this behavior.
As I have told before, this card is from completely different price
segment then proper SAS/SATA HBAs. For its $80 it is not promised to be
reliable. But in case anything can be done, I'll try to take a look on
it in couple weeks when I get one and return home.
