As Mark J said both mfi(4) and mrsas(4) can be used for this controller. By default in FreeBSD 9.3 or 10.1, the mfi(4) driver will be coupled to this controller(LSI MegaRAID 9361-8i). If you want to override this default behavior then you have to provide hw.mfi.mrsas_enable=1 at the loader prompt. This setting will not work on FreeBSD-9.3 as this setting is controlled by mfi(4) driver and mfi(4) driver just lacks checking of this setting in FreeBSD-9.3. But this setting will work just fine in the case of FreeBSD-10.1. If you want mrsas(4) on FreeBSD-9.3 then you have to re-compile the kernel with mfi(4) unloaded and then you can use the mrsas(4) as a module. You can download the mrsas(4) driver module from the www.lsi.com website itself. Find the FreeBSD driver from the below link: http://goo.gl/otslzH - Sibananda Sahu AVAGO Technologies Pvt.

Both drivers can attach to this card; mrsas(4) can be selected by setting hw.mfi.mrsas_enable=1 at the loader prompt, and has better support for newer LSI controllers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
