https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D263906 Bug ID: 263906 Summary: MFI driver fails with "Fatal firmware error" line 1155 in ../../dm/src/dm.c Product: Base System Version: 13.1-STABLE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: greg@teamworkweb.com Testing out FreeBSD 13.1-RC6 on server hardware which has been 100% stable = for past 3+ months on 13.0. One HBA is a LSI 9361 SAS in JBOD Mode. This HBA was pulled from another system where it saw 99.99% uptime for over 3 years. Fai= rly sure HBA is not the issue. Honestly not certain it is on latest firmware, h= ave not updated since it has been stable. Was unable to install 13.1-RC6, mfi driver would load and get through most = of creating JBOD objects, then die with: mfi0: 39952: (705350772s/0x0020/DEAD) - Fatal firmware error: Line 1155 in ../../dm/src/dm.c Tried switching it back into RAID mode, same error. I was able to work around this by setting the following at boot: set hw.mfi.mrsas_enable=3D"1" set hint.hw.mfi.mrsas_enable=3D"1" Honestly not sure which format was needed? So did both. I had intended to u= se MRSAS driver anyways, since I like having drives populated under CAM contro= l. However wanted to report this, since I did not have any issues with MFI dri= ver under 13.0. This seems to be a new issue with driver build under 13.1-RC6. Will try to honor requests for more details, since I have some time to play with this hardware for a bit yet. But... currently having another fairly serious issue with 13.1-RC6 install which I am trying to figure out how to = even report? After getting everything setup basically identical to test environment I had running for 3+ months under 13.0, started running aggressive back to back f= io and iozone benchmarks on a zpool. Same processes I have been doing for mont= hs with out issues under 13.0. Next morning I went to check results and was getting "No more processes" on my shell. Found some how system was flooded = with 37,000+ processes that were all instances of "sh", most in sleep! Was able = to grab some lines out of /var/log/messages, but then rebooted and it has been down hill ever since. System won't fully boot, not to a login. I can get in= to single user, but then /var/log is empty! Not sure if that is normal? Haven't done enough debugging or diags in FreeBSD. Anyway, long story short, now dealing with other serious issues which might prevent further testing of MFI driver in the immediate future. But I will do what I can to help test this = new build. Apologize in advance for missed steps or details, moving over to FreeBSD af= ter a decade on OmniOS so still picking things up. Thanks! -Greg- --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
