nor supported by HP with this driver. For older Smart Arrays, the cciss

driver should still be used.
|
||||
|
||||
The "hpsa_simple_mode=1" boot parameter may be used to prevent the driver from
|
||||
putting the controller into "performant" mode. The difference is that with simple
|
||||
mode, each command completion requires an interrupt, while with "performant mode"
|
||||
(the default, and ordinarily better performing) it is possible to have multiple
|
||||
command completions indicated by a single interrupt.
