I just got an LSI 9341-8i card and I'm having some trouble getting it to
work in a new install of 11.2-RELEASE. I'm trying to replace an old 9.x
FreeNAS box with a new machine. I have one drive connected for testing. I
haven't set anything up, it's just JBOD (which is what I want anyway). The
BIOS seems to see the drive and controller, and in FreeBSD when I boot I
see this:

AVAGO MegaRAID SAS FreeBSD mrsas driver version: 06.712.04.00-fbsd
mfi0: <Fury> port 0xd000-0xd0ff mem
0xfe720000-0xfe72ffff,0xfe600000-0xfe6fffff irq 19 at device 0.0 on pci2
mfi0: Using MSI
mfi0: Megaraid SAS driver Ver 4.23
mfi0: FW MaxCmds = 240, limiting to 128
mfi0: MaxCmd = 240, Drv MaxCmd = 128, MaxSgl = 70, state = 0xbf3c00f0
mfi0: Init command Failed 0x3
mfi0: TB Init has failed with error 3
device_attach: mfi0 attach returned 3

I haven't found anything on Google. I read on the mfi man page (I think)
that I should enable mrsas for these cards, so I added
hwmfi.mrsas_enable="1" to /boot/device.hints, but that didn't help. I have
nothing related in /dev, no disk or even a controller node, so I can't
update the firmware or do anything else... I'm not sure what else to try.

For now I'm going to try 10.x instead and see if that works, though I would
of course rather use the latest version.
