Hello, I already asked this on -stable, but got no reply so far, so I'll try again here: I was thinking about buying something like Supermicro's SSG-540P-E1CTR45L storage box which comes with a Broadcom 3808 chipset. The Broadcom docs claim this has FreeBSD support, and so does this thread of a few months ago: https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-scsi/2021-June/000004.html However, I cannot find the mentioned support in the mpr driver when looking into the code of FreeBSD 13, and I am missing any pointer from which FreeBSD version on support might be available. I also don't understand at all what is meant by "inbox driver" vs. "out-of-box driver" from the post linked above. Can anyone here shed a light on this for me? Is the Broadcom 3808 chip supported, and if so, from which version on? cu Gerrit --
