Public bug reported:
[Impact]
SATA disks may be unusable
will not be usable when:
- The disk is connected through a SAS expander
- Controller uses a libsas-based driver (mvsas, aic94xx, hisi_sas)
- link rate between expander & disk is greater than link between controller
and expander
[Test Case]
See conditions in "Impact"
[Fix]
cec9771d2e954 scsi: libsas: Support SATA PHY connection rate unmatch fixing
during discovery
[Regression Risk]
Impact is restricted to drivers that use libsas: mvsas, aic94xx & hisi_sas.
Code change is all within an "if" statement that meets these restrictions.
A bug in this code could possibly reduce the speed of an otherwise working disk
connection.
