@ Bryan - I see what you say... It is bit confusing...you are confuse
with max_sectors module parameter. That parameter is only for bit old
controllers. See below PnP ID checks in driver code.
/*
* Check if the module parameter value for max_sectors can be used
*/
if (max_sectors && max_sectors < instance->max_sectors_per_req)
instance->max_sectors_per_req = max_sectors;
else {
if (max_sectors) {
if (((instance->pdev->device ==
PCI_DEVICE_ID_LSI_SAS1078GEN2) ||
(instance->pdev->device ==
PCI_DEVICE_ID_LSI_SAS0079GEN2)) &&
(max_sectors <= MEGASAS_MAX_SECTORS)) {
instance->max_sectors_per_req = max_sectors;
} else {
dev_info(&instance->pdev->dev, "max_sectors should be >
0"
"and <= %d (or < 1MB for GEN2 controller)\n",
instance->max_sectors_per_req);
}
}
}
I will be checking how non-PPC environment behaves using same FW component.
(as per comment #13) 14.10 should work but 15.04 will fail. I will update my
findings as well.
