DIAGNOSTICS

Driver initialisation/shutdown phase

amr%d: memory window not available
amr%d: I/O window not available: The PCI BIOS did not allocate resources necessary for the correct operation of the controller. The driver cannot attach to this controller.
amr%d: busmaster bit not set, enabling: The PCI BIOS did not enable busmaster DMA, which is required for the correct operation of the controller. The driver has enabled this bit and initialisation will proceed.
amr%d: can't allocate register window
amr%d: can't allocate interrupt
amr%d: can't set up interrupt
amr%d: can't allocate parent DMA tag
amr%d: can't allocate buffer DMA tag
amr%d: can't allocate scatter/gather DMA tag
amr%d: can't allocate s/g table
amr%d: can't allocate mailbox tag
amr%d: can't allocate mailbox memory: A resource allocation error occurred while initialising the driver; initialisation has failed and the driver will not attach to this controller.
amr%d: can't obtain configuration data from controller
amr%d: can't obtain product data from controller: The driver was unable to obtain vital configuration data from the controller. Initialisation has failed and the driver will not attach to this controller.
amr%d: can't establish configuration hook
amr%d: can't scan controller for drives: The scan for logical drives managed by the controller failed. No drives will be attached.
amr%d: device_add_child failed
amr%d: bus_generic_attach returned %d: Creation of the logical drive instances failed; attachment of one or more logical drives may have been aborted.
amr%d: flushing cache...: The controller cache is being flushed prior to shutdown or detach.

Operational diagnostics

amr%d: I/O beyond end of unit (%u,%d > %u): A partitioning error or disk corruption has caused an I/O request beyond the end of the logical drive. This may also occur if FlexRAID Virtual Sizing is enabled and an I/O operation is attempted on a portion of the virtual drive beyond the actual capacity available.
amr%d: polled command timeout: An initialisation command timed out. The initialisation process may fail as a result.
amr%d: bad slot %d completed: The controller reported completion of a command that the driver did not issue. This may result in data corruption, and suggests a hardware or firmware problem with the system or controller.
amr%d: I/O error - %x: An I/O error has occurred.
