Currently only solaris ahci driver supports port multiplier, see this CR:
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6691950

So please try SIL port multiplier with AHCI compatible sata controller.

Both marvell88sx driver and si3124 driver don't support port multiplier yet.

If you're interested in si3124 driver, please refer to the below link to trace the status:

On build 132...

I've tried the marvell88sx driver on a MV88XS6081 device (class code 10000) and 
a Sil3132 (with non-RAID bios) based controller with a SIL port multiplier.

In the first case, the port multiplier shows up as a single disk:
sata1/1

instead of 5 disks:
sata1/1.0
sata1/1.1
...

The SIL driver won't even configure whatever port I have the port multiplier 
plugged into.
