FWIW Marvell is moving quite nicely... they are actively providing docs

How about support for wide ports (i.e. when 2 or more HBA
phys are attached to remote phys which have the same SAS
addresses)?
Last question: can the chip run in SCSI target mode?

Open question (pending w/ BCM). It looks like the answer is "silicon
limitation".

Open question (w/ BCM). It looks like the answer is "no support."

Rather than sitting on this for far too long, I wanted to go ahead and
get this out there. I heard some chips might be trickling out into
public hands.
This is a bare bones Broadcom 8603 SAS+SATA driver, attempting to use
the vaunted libsas. Notes:
