Hi, Thank you for your work on this card! I have quite a few boxes that run various 3wares cards with diverse firmware revs. Are there any caveats with respect to models and firmware versions in terms of how they might interact ? ---Mike At 01:25 PM 10/08/2003 -0700, Paul Saab wrote:>ps 2003/08/10 13:25:46 PDT > > FreeBSD src repository > > Modified files: (Branch: RELENG_4) > sys/dev/twe twe.c twe_compat.h twe_freebsd.c > twe_tables.h tweio.h twereg.h twevar.h > Log: > MFC: Support for the 3ware API > > Revision Changes Path > 1.1.2.7 +92 -59 src/sys/dev/twe/twe.c > 1.1.2.4 +4 -1 src/sys/dev/twe/twe_compat.h > 1.2.2.6 +77 -33 src/sys/dev/twe/twe_freebsd.c > 1.1.2.3 +3 -0 src/sys/dev/twe/twe_tables.h > 1.1.2.3 +10 -0 src/sys/dev/twe/tweio.h > 1.1.2.5 +1 -1 src/sys/dev/twe/twereg.h > 1.1.2.5 +3 -1 src/sys/dev/twe/twevar.h >_______________________________________________ >cvs-all@freebsd.org mailing list >http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all >To unsubscribe, send any mail to "cvs-all-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"

The latest firmware will be needed to use the 3ware management utilities and unfortunately there is no way to do this online. You will have to flash the controller using a floppy booting into DOS. I just put in changes to the API today which will stop the API from even being used unless it is with the latest driver. Bad mojo will happen if the the API were allowed to be run on older drivers. --On Sunday, August 10, 2003 8:54 PM -0400 Mike Tancsa <mike@sentex.net> wrote:> > Hi, > Thank you for your work on this card!

What version of the firmware did you test with ? We have a few remote boxes so its good this extra stop gap is there as it would have led to a nasty surprise :-( When you figure this would be MFC'd ? For example, FreeBSD's RE's build box here has Monitor version: ME7X 1.01.00.034 Firmware version: FE7X 1.04.00.024 BIOS version: BE7X 1.07.02.008 PCB version: Rev3 Achip version: V3.20 Pchip version: V1.30 Model: 7210 Unit count: 1 Will this box blow up if a cvsup was done today and the new drivers were run ? ---Mike At 01:11 AM 11/08/2003 -0700, Paul Saab wrote:>The latest firmware will be needed to use the 3ware management utilities >and unfortunately there is no way to do this online.
