The TM never completes, so targ->tm is never cleared (only completion handlers clear it), every later timeout on the target queues into timedout_commands forever (mpr_sas.c:1716-1722), and the triggering ccb is never returned to CAM — an unkillable I/O hang plus a high-priority-command leak. Provable trigger: mprsas_remove_volume clears targ->handle (mpr_sas.c:414) without draining targ->commands (unlike mprsas_remove_device at mpr_sas.c:621-628), so outstanding volume I/O that times out afterwards hits the -1 path. Not reproduced: guest has no SAS3 HBA (env.txt); mpr SIM never attaches.",
