Initial release for IBM Flex elx_dd_fc_ibm1209-2_74_009_001_windows_32-64_chg
IBM HBA/LSI 6Gb SAS/SATA/SSD Driver for Windows
Supported Controllers: ServeRAID H1110 SAS/SATA Controller for IBM System x (81Y4492) IBM 6Gb SAS HBA (46M0907) IBM 6Gb SSD HBA (68Y7362)
NOTE TO SERVICE - Reference RETAIN #N/A
Version 2.00.45.00 - Suggested ------------------ Ehancement(s): - Add support for ServeRAID H1110 SAS/SATA Controller for IBM System x - Add conversion of sense data descriptor format to fixed format, so drives 2.1TB in size and greater can return descriptor format sense data. For these drives to work properly under Windows, the miniport needs to convert the descriptor format sense data to fixed format before returning the sense data up the stack.
Fixes: - Add check for sense data type (fixed vs. descriptor) in CheckSmartInfo where large physical drives 2TB in size and greater use the descriptor format for sense data in order to pass back 64-bit LBA addresses. Most drives use the fixed format sense data, is the only format the upper layers of the Windows stack supports

NOTE TO SERVICE - Reference RETAIN #TIP H204972
Version 5.2.127-1 - Suggested --------------- Enhancement: - Added support for IBM Flex System Storage Expansion Node Note: Device driver version is still 5.2.127.
Version 5.2.127 - Suggested --------------- Fixes - Fixed an issue while updating Win2k8x32 driver the user will get the following error "This device can not start (Code 10)." message - Fixed an issue where MSM 12.01.03.00 alerts are not giving proper windows version. - Fixed an issue where the driver was setting the region lock type even when firmware informs driver to bypass lock. - Fixed Sequential Write performance - Fixed an issue where I/Os stop sporadically with outstanding I/Os. - Changed the behavior of the driver to not send srb flush down by default; it manually checks the inf file for the device ids or on a system with these devices. - Fixed an issue where Windows LSI Driver megasas2.sys has inconsistent File version.
Version 5.2.112 - Suggested --------------- Fixes - Addressed Event 11 error in Windows system event log in Multipath configuration with Windows 2003. - Fixed issue where an Event 11 error will log in the Windows 2008 system event log during a warm or cold reboot. (RETAIN TIP H204972) - Fixed BSOD, RQ_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL, which can during heavy IO in large RAID 6 configurations.
Version 5.2.103 - Suggested -------------- Enhancements - Added support for ServeRAID M5016 - Added support for Windows 2008 R2 SP1
Fixes - LSI Channel fixes
Version 4.36.0 - Non-critical -------------- Fixes - Fixed issue where Windows 2003/2008 will blue screen during heavy periods of I/O - Fixed issue where a yellow bang will occur in Windows device manager when using the EXP2512/2524
Version 4.35.0 - Non-critical -------------- Enhancements - Enhancement for online controller reset support for 1078 (ServeRAID MR10x) controllers
Fixes - Fix issue where the application-DeviceIoctl would request sense IO, and device would generate sense information, which would get transferred to a wrong address. - Fixed issue where some servers will hang on shutdown of Windows due to Power SRB handling - Fixed verification at 0xC4 with verifier handling violation due to mmMIOspace call from miniport driver. - Fixed iMR performance problem with multiple virtual drives by allowing the driver to send SCSI status as task full. - Fix order IO coalescing.
Version 4.32a - Non-critical -------------- - Fixed issue with "Extract to Hard Drive" option
Version 4.32.0 - Non-critical -------------- - Fixed issue on Windows 2003 where after shutdown the user will see unexpected shutdown message in the next reboot due to driver not unregistering CPX interface. - Fixed issue where the ServeRAID M1015 will hang when performing OCR with IO with a degraded RAID 1 or rebuilding RAID 1 array. - Fixed issue where the ServeRAID M1015 will hang when performing OCR with IO on RAID 1 and RAID 5 arrays. - Fixed issue where BSOD error occurs, “DRIVER_POWER_STATE_FAILURE STOP: 9F,” during Windows 2008-R2 installation and before first reboot.
Version 4.24.0 - Non-critical -------------- Enhancements - Added support for ServeRAID M5025.
Fixes - Fixed issue with Event ID 51 messages - Fixed issue where the Operating System hangs during reboot after stopping IO and clearing config. - Fixed issue with command Timeout to driver. - Fixed issue where the file system view shown as 'RAW' instead of 'NTFS/FAT' - Fixed issue where an adapter reset would cause a BSOD
Version 4.17.2 - Non-critical -------------- - Added support for ServeRAID M1015. - Implemented some performance enhancements to support ServeRAID M1015 controller. - Fixed an issue where the system could hang when a virtual disk is deleted or a configuration is cleared during heavy I/O.
Version 4.13 - Non-critical ------------ - Added logic to support next-gen SAS2 controllers. - Added support for the ServeRAID M5015 and M5014 SAS/SATA controllers.
Version 3.9 - Suggested ----------- - Added support for the IBM ServeRAID MR10ie (CIOv) SAS controller. - Added support for MSI (Message Signaled Interrupts) to the Windows Server 2008 driver. - Fixed an issue that could cause a system freeze when a system shutdown is initiated while the system is under heavy I/O stress.
Version 2.23 - Suggested ------------ - Added support for the IBM ServeRAID MR10is SAS controller. - Fixed an issue where, after a firmware hang, the driver would completely halt the firmware, resulting in the rejection of all additional commands. - Fixed an issue where the OS on the first controller would become unstable after the second controller encounters a double bit ECC error. - Changed the signing process to ensure that the digital signature would not expire.
Version 2.20 - Suggested ------------ - Added support for the IBM ServeRAID MR10il SAS controller. - Added support for Windows Server 2008. - Implemented several changes to prevent ISR calls at certain times. - Fixed a text issue in the INF file. - Fixed an issue where S3 Standby would delay and sometimes fail during resume from Sleep state.
Version 2.17 - Suggested ------------ - Added support the IBM ServeRAID MR10i, MR10k, and MR10M SAS controllers.
Version 1.24 - Suggested ------------ - Forced the PnP Manager to rescan the bus once "Dead Adapter" is set. This prevents a manual rescan, as well as preventing I/O retries which fill up the event log. - Modified the driver so that it will no longer allow any commands to go to the firmware once the restart timer is on.
Version 1.23 - Suggested ------------ - Implemented EnableDma64BitAddresses argument, which allows the driver to support 64-bit DMA addressing regardless of whether the system supports 64-bit addressing. - Fixed an issue where the driver was not updating the dataTransferLength value, which caused miscompares between the dataTransferLength value returned by the driver and the value returned by the firmware.
Version 1.21 ------------ - Initial release ibm_dd_sraidmr_5_2_127-1_windows_32-64_chg
