Hello,
a week ago I installed and configured a new LSI card on a debian 12 machine. I noticed that many commands fail while checking the controller information. Example:

# megaclisas-status --notemp
-- Controller information --

you may notice the "Segmentation fault" on line 2.
Some commands work, as for megacli -AdpAllInfo -aAll, megacli -PDList -a0, and megacli -LDInfo -L0 -a0. Some other fails, as for the battery information:

# megacli -AdpBbuCmd -aALL
                                     
BBU status for Adapter: 0

BatteryType: iBBU-09
Voltage: 4058 mV
Current: 0 mA
Temperature: 22 C
Battery State: Optimal
Segmentation fault

Please note that Debian 12 has this kernel:

# uname -a
Linux mantide 6.1.0-17-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.69-1 (2023-12-30) x86_64 GNU/Linux

And note that megacli has been downloaded from the bullseye repository since it is missing from the bookworm:

# apt policy megacli
megacli:
  Installato: 8.07.14-3+Debian.11.bullseye
  Candidato:  8.07.14-3+Debian.11.bullseye
  Tabella versione:
 *** 8.07.14-3+Debian.11.bullseye 500
        500 http://hwraid.le-vert.net/debian bullseye/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Thank you,
Giuseppe
