queued internally. This works around issue in the isci HAL where it cannot
accept new I/O to a device after a resetting->ready state transition until
the completion context has unwound.
This issue was found by submitting non-tagged CCBs through pass(4) interface
to a SATA disk with an extremely small timeout value (5ms). This would trigger
internal resets with I/O in the isci(4) internal queues.
The small timeout value had not been intentional (and original reporter has
since changed his test to use 5sec instead), but it did uncover this corner
case that would result in a hung disk.

The isci driver is for the integrated SAS controller in the Intel C600
(Patsburg) chipset. Source files in sys/dev/isci directory are
FreeBSD-specific, and sys/dev/isci/scil subdirectory contains
an OS-agnostic library (SCIL) published by Intel to control the SAS
controller. This library is used primarily as-is in this driver, with
some post-processing to better integrate into the kernel build
environment.
isci.4 and a README in the sys/dev/isci directory contain a few
additional details.
This driver is only built for amd64 and i386 targets.
