I've got an Invader here,

mfi0: <Invader> port 0x4f00-0x4fff mem 0x913f0000-0x913fffff,0x91400000-0x914fffff irq 34 at device 0.0 on pci22
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 = 0xb73c00f0
mfi0: 11170 (448037009s/0x0020/info) - Shutdown command received from host
mfi0: 11171 (boot + 10s/0x0020/info) - Firmware initialization started (PCI ID 005d/1000/045b/1014)
mfi0: 11172 (boot + 10s/0x0020/info) - Firmware version 4.200.21-2840
mfi0: 11173 (boot + 12s/0x0020/info) - Package version 24.0.2-0013
mfi0: 11174 (boot + 12s/0x0020/info) - Board Revision  00AL055

let me know if I can help running any tests  here. For now I am using it just to boot and I have installed an LSI2008, as this invader corrupts data on "syspd" or even plain  passthrough disks.

The server is not in production, so I have no problems to try drivers, etc.
