megaraid_sas takes 1+ seconds to load while waiting for firmware:
[2.822603] megaraid_sas 0000:03:00.0: Waiting for FW to come to ready state
[3.871003] megaraid_sas 0000:03:00.0: FW now in Ready state
This is due to the following loop in megasas_transition_to_ready(), which
waits a minimum of 1 second, even though the FW becomes ready in tens of
millisecs:
/*
* The cur_state should not last for more than max_wait secs
*/
for (i = 0; i < max_wait; i++) {
...
msleep(1000);
...
dev_info(&instance->pdev->dev, "FW now in Ready state\n");
This is a regression, caused by a change of the msleep granularity from 1
to 1000 due to concern about waiting too long on systems with coarse
jiffies.
To fix, increase iterations and use msleep(20), which results in:
[2.670627] megaraid_sas 0000:03:00.0: Waiting for FW to come to ready state
[2.739386] megaraid_sas 0000:03:00.0: FW now in Ready state

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
