According to the SAS spec, an expander device shall transmit BROADCAST (CHANGE) from at least one phy in each expander port other than the expander port that is the cause for transmitting BROADCAST (CHANGE). As such, for when the link is lost for a root PHY attached to an expander PHY, we get no broadcast event. This causes an issue for libsas, in that we will not revalidate the domain for these events. As a solution, for when a root PHY is formed or deformed from a root port, insert a broadcast event to trigger a domain revalidation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
