2014-09-16mpt3sas: MPI2.5 Rev H (2.5.3) specificationsSreekanth Reddy
Below is the change set in MPI2.5 Rev H specification and 2.00.32 header files 1) Added reserved fields to IO Unit Page 7 for future use. 2) Added optional functionality to IOCInit Request so that the host may specify a separate base address for each Reply Descriptor Post Queue. IOC support for this is indicated using a new IOCCapabilities bit in the IOCFacts Reply. 3) Added Toolbox Console Text Display Tool The host uses the Console Text Display Tool to send a string to IOC's Console using different console types (eg: UART serial terminal or Ethernet terminal). 4) Firmware images can now be signed using an encrypted hash. 5) Added MPI2_SAS_OP_TRANSMIT_PORT_SELECT_SIGNAL 6) Added more details about configuration page restrictions when Host Based Discovery is enabled Enabling host based discovery affects the availability of some configuration pages and events. The SAS Expander, SAS Device, and SAS Enclosure configuration pages are not available from the IOC. The IOC returns an error status to any Configuration Request message attempting to access these pages. The IOC does not send the SAS Discovery Event, the SAS Topology Change List Event, or the SAS Enclosure Device Status Change Event when host based discovery is enabled. 7) Bit 13 of the SAS IO Unit Page 1 ControlFlags field is now obsolete. It was used to enable limiting direct attached SATA maximum link rate to 1.5 Gbps. Signed-off-by: Sreekanth Reddy <Sreekanth.Reddy@avagotech.com> Reviewed-by: Martin K.

2012-12-01[SCSI] mpt3sas: add new driver supporting 12GB SASSreekanth Reddy
These driver files are initially, substantially similar to mpt2sas but, because mpt2sas is going into maintenance mode and mp3sas will become heavily developed, we elected to keep the code bases separate.
