Fixes & Enhancements
Fixes:
1. Firmware will preserve the CSTS.CFS bit as long as the drive is in panic.
2. Disable Latency Tolerance Reporting (LTR) in FW
3. Implemented a fix to ensure that the drive does not miss the TS1 from the host which will allow the host to exit the L1 Entry state and prevent the link from being reset.
4. FW now shows specific values per capacity in the Sanitize Status log page
5. Resolved the issue of the drive internal bit remaining set after a reboot. This ensures that AERs will not be disabled.
6. Improve APL handling in FW.
7. Improve handling of invalid commands in FW to prevent asserts.
8. Improve TRIM handling in FW
9. Improve thermal shutdown behavior to avoid assert.
10. Improve PERST handling to prevent assert in this situation
11. Improved OOB command handling in FW especially during shutdown
