Ok, looking in the code i found that on "3ware" device only "ata_command_interface" is implemented (with TW_OSL_IOCTL_FIRMWARE_PASS_THROUGH). The question is if that interface actually supports SAS drives at all. From the quick view of the sources i found TWE_Command_ATA packet description, but nothing related to SCSI/SATA packets. So i am not sure that it is possible at all. If you know any tool which able to get health information for SAS drives we can try to debug ioctl it using to find the way to talk with disk.

One more update - there is TWA_FW_CMD_EXECUTE_SCSI command in the twa driver, so it should be possible to get required data. I have no access to such hardware, but if anyone if going to provide it - i could try at least.
