mfi1: <Drake Skinny> port 0xc000-0xc0ff mem 
0xfad9c000-0xfad9ffff,0xfadc0000-0xfadfffff irq 30 at device 0.0 on pci2
mfi1: Using MSI
mfi1: Megaraid SAS driver Ver 4.23
...
mfi1: 15228 (boot + 3s/0x0020/info) - Firmware version 2.130.384-2291
mfi1: 15229 (boot + 5s/0x0020/info) - Package version 20.11.1-0137
mfi1: 15230 (boot + 5s/0x0020/info) - Board Revision 03A

In every case I've invesitgated for this is been either:-
1. Old Firmware
2. Bad Cabling, Disk or Ram

I'm 99.9999% certain timeout issues are not a driver issue. #1 is the cause of
almost all occurances I've looked at.

FW we're running here is:
mfi0: Megaraid SAS driver Ver 4.23
...
mfi0: 14299 (boot + 4s/0x0020/info) - Firmware version 3.190.05-1669
mfi0: 14300 (boot + 5s/0x0020/info) - Package version 23.7.0-0029
mfi0: 14301 (boot + 5s/0x0020/info) - Board Revision

So looks like your FW is quite old and needs updating.

Either we're not talking about the same card or there is somewhere to find
firmware that I don't know about.

I just checked the LSI website for 9240-4i firmware and there is a
20.12.1-0150 version (labeled "4.11") released on 23 September 2013. The
previous version is the version running in this machine.

Are we talking about the same card? Is there a better place to look for
firmware updates on the LSI website?

There are many different MFI controllers unforutnately making tracking
versions very hard especially when OEM's have different versions again.
Id suggest contacting LSI support and request the FW with the command
timeout fix in.
