I downgraded back to linux-4.1.5-1 and all works again so there is an issue with linux kernel somewhere between 4.1.5-1 and 4.3.3-3
From what I can tell it is directly related to mpt2sas.

Google that error. If you can't join in and help you can at least see there's a lot of interest.
I use a LSI 9211-8i IT and see no such errors.

Google shows 2 Posts... in the last year with that error. 1 being some scrape of my post. The other not seemingly pertaining to my issue.
It really bugs me when someone assumes that the first stop was to post on a forum with no searching. I searched issues for hours. Besides seeing that the mpt2sas driver was upgraded and no longer worked on the most recent LiveCD and that the latest upgraded system contains a combined mpt3sas and mpt2sas driver which also doesn't work there wasn't much to go on.
I found people having similar issues with 0 a solution given. None of which directly pertained to my situation or device and none listing the error.
I have exhausted what information I can find and short of delving into source code for a driver(which I have 0 experience with), I am not sure what help I can be.
SO if there is all of this interest please do direct me to it... If more information is needed feel free to ask.
The error is easily reproducible for me. I however have no clue what information would be relevant or if it's a known issue.

Neuntoter, I've opened the following bug today on Launchpad:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1625718
I think it's related to the kernel version, not the distribution.

I realize this is an older thread, but there's still a dearth of info out there on this issue. My symptoms were none of my disks attached to LSI SAS controllers showed up. @Neuntoter I'm not sure if you ever resolved your issue on a newer kernel, but this just happened to me on a server after upgrading the kernel to 5.10.28-1-lts. I tried the stable kernel as well (5.11.12.arch1-1) but had the same issue. The SAS devices:
03:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: Broadcom / LSI SAS2008 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 [Falcon] (rev 03)
04:00.0 Serial Attached SCSI controller: Broadcom / LSI SAS2116 PCI-Express Fusion-MPT SAS-2 [Meteor] (rev 02)
The error I saw in kernel logs was:
Apr 09 22:43:31 hostname kernel: mpt2sas_cm0: failure at drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_scsih.c:12011/_scsih_probe()!
However, this thread (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209177) pointed me to a solution that worked for me. As in the case of that bug report, I have a line in logs like:
Apr 09 22:43:31 hostname kernel: mpt2sas_cm1: Current Controller Queue Depth(3368),Max Controller Queue Depth(3439)
You can see that the queue depth is close to the max; it appears that it's hitting the max and causing problems per that bug report thread. Your logs seem to show something similar. Taking the advice from the thread and setting
mpt3sas.max_queue_depth=10000
in /boot/loader/entries/arch-lts.conf appears to have resolved the issue. It also fixes it on the stable kernel if I update the boot options. This does seem like it must be related to changes in the kernels, but I have also been adding disks to my JBOD, so I'm not sure if it gets aggravated with more drives present. Anyway, hopefully this is helpful to someone.

Thanks for the contribution, but as you note this thread is very old. Closing.
