About DS3 function:
LSI Request :: P00046621
the LSI MegaRAID controllers currently have disabled support the DimmerSwitch. There is no ETA for when this feature will be supported again.

- Added support for Cache Cade 2.1
- Added Support for PI Drives

Fixes

- Fixed an issue where the firmware reports device initialization completion status to
   be greater than 100% at startup.
- Fix an issue where when a secure foreign drive was present, VD creation fails because
   firmware becomes unresponsive
- Added a check for the presence of PD before writing the data arms of a protected LD
   during BGI.
- Fixed Firmware asserts in CacheMemAllocForPrebootApps() when memory was allocated
   twice by BIOS.
- Fixed an issue with USB Cacheoffload restore fails after multiple power cycles on
   ServeRAID M51xx controllers.
- Fixed an issue where querying SMART / PFA Status returns ?ll zeros?in Sense Data.
- Fixed an issue where the import of a config from MR to iMR resulted in a firmware crash.
- Fixed an issue where iMR firmware crashed while creating 8/16/32 KB stripe size Lds.
- Fixed background initialization watermark conversion to PD LBA.
- Fixed write protected R1E data arms during initialization.
- Fixed an issue where MR firmware crashed while discarding pinned cache.
- Fixed an issue where a dirty LD dependency information of SSD pd has stale entries.
- Corrected an issue during system booting from pinned cache, firmware goes to loop
   message BootMsgDcmd
- Fixed an issue where a BGI was aborted and restarted, elapsed time was not reset.
- Fixed an issue where the start ref for a shared cache line was not an indicator of
   the offset into the stripe.
- Fixed an issue where the firmware hangs while running CC on a rebuilt R1 VD with SBBM.
- Fixed an issue where the firmware was wrongly adding puncture entries.
- Fixed an issue where rebuild was ran twice on a target drive with 100% full SBBM table.
- Fixed an issue where the firmware was generating powersave change event when DS3 was
   not enabled, due to this application are not parsing the event.
- Fixed an issue where recon from R0 to R1 using 3 TB drive causes firmware to report
   excessive unexpected sense events.
- Fixed an issue, in which the bbuMode would revert to the factory default value of 5,
   when automatic learn cycle was enabled.
- Fixed an issue where cache offload firmware reports unnecessary High Temp Event due
   to incorrect temp value.
- Fixed an issue in which a Patrol Read may not start under certain conditions.
- Fixed an issue where the firmware hits montask after discarding the cache when a
   snapshot VD was involved.
- Fixed an issue where the firmware hangs during pin cache destage as dirty lines in
   that map never become zero.
- Fixed an issue where CC fails to correct media error at 2TB location on 2 3TB SATA
   drives that support WU.
- Fixed an issue where a new XML file was added to the nvdata, the buffer to hold the
   uncompressed nvdata overflowed.
- Fixed an issue where an imported drive becomes unconfigured good when secure VD
   erase was running.
- Fixed an issue where CC stops progressing on a R6 VD with media errors.
- Fixed an issue where 3TB Hitachi HDD failed in immunity test (Electrostatic Noise
   test).
- Fixed an issue where controller features are lost if RAID Key was not detected
- Fixed an issue where performance degraded in RAID 5 Sequential Writes due to
