Hi Xingui,

We found that it is judged as broadcast flutter and exits directly when the
exp-attached end device reconnects after the end device probe failed.

Can you please describe how to reproduce this issue in detail?

Thanks,
Jason

The cause of the problem is that the related ex_phy information was not
cleared after the end device probe failed. In order to solve the above
problem, a function sas_ex_unregister_end_dev() is defined to clear the
ex_phy information and unregister the end device when the exp-attached end
device probe failed.

As the sata device is an asynchronous probe, the sata device may probe
failed after done REVALIDATING DOMAIN. Then after the port is added to the
sas_port_del_list, the port will not be deleted until the end of the next
REVALIDATING DOMAIN and sas_destruct_ports() is called. A warning about
creating a duplicate port will occur in the new REVALIDATING DOMAIN when
the end device reconnects. Therefore, the previous destroy_list and
sas_port_del_list should be handled before REVALIDATING DOMAIN.

Did you mean this end device is a wide-port end device ? How could this happen?
