Hi James and djwong,

How to you try to get the firmware if not exist? thanks

Uh... are you asking how a driver responds when it asks for firmware and receives nothing in response? Or are you asking how to find firmware for a specific driver?

Hi Jamas, Darrick,

We find upstream commit 45e6cdf41437c72ed79cee64dc69e7f740511e50 need firmware "sas_addr", and it just used by aic94xx, the question is if this is a built-in firmware? if not, would you please help us to get it?

"sas_addr" is a (somewhat wonky) method to override the SAS controller's address when the driver loads and discovers that the aic94xx controller doesn't have an assigned SAS address.

(Or at least that's the way it was a few years ago...)
