Hi, I have a Sun Fire V245 with an mpt(4) with integrated RAID. On attach it would generate messages like: mpt2: Unknown async event: 0xb000000 These were messages from the integrated RAID about RAID volume status (but the event was byte-swapped because it's a BE machine) and we didn't handle them. I've committed a change to parse these messages and display them: https://mail-index.netbsd.org/source-changes/2026/07/07/msg162920.html So, if you have mpt with integrated RAID, you should now see messages like: mpt2: Integrated RAID Event: volume 0 status: optimal, enabled mpt2: Integrated RAID Event: volume 2 status: missing, enabled, inactive at attach time and also when RAID events happen, rather than the unknown async event message. Regards, Julian PS. I also see: mpt2: Phy 0: Link Status Unknown for each RAID volume or (standalone) disk but it doesn't look like the drive or RAID number is encoded as we expect in the event message, so we always print "Phy 0". --
