SAS Clause 9
STP Connections• SATA Devices transmit an initial FIS
upon a Link Reset– Expander Devices will not forward this FIS to
STP Initiators– Create a Block of Shadow Registers to hold
this information which is reported upon request from an SMP Initiator using the SMP REPORT PHY SATA function
– All Communication between STP Initiators and SATA Devices is done via rules established in the SATA Standard
– SATA BIST Requests shall not be forwarded to SATA Targets by Expander Devices
