Hello all,
Got a problem with a HP Proliant DL380 with root on a RAID1 behind a
Smart Array 5i+. It boots up fine with 2.4.25, but halts every time
with 2.4.27. The following message should be printed:
HP CISS Driver (v 2.4.50)
cciss: Device 0xb178 has been found at bus 1 dev 3 func 0
blocks= 71122560 block_size= 512
heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 8716 RAID 1(0+1)
blk: queue c04c6c40, I/O limit 4294967295Mb (mask 0xffffffffffffffff)
Partition check:
cciss/c0d0: p1 p2 < p5 p6 p7 p8 >
But instead, it prints:
blk: queue c04c6c40, I/O limit 4294967295Mb (mask 0xffffffffffffffff)
Partition check:
cciss/c0d0:
and freezes there, but not so badly that Ctl-Alt-Del wouldn't let me
reboot. Anybody got any ideas? The kernels I am using are based on
Linus' from ftp.funet.fi, with i2c, lm_sensors and MOSIX added in.
I can try with a completely vanilla 2.4.27 if necessary.

Please try vanilla v2.4.27.
If that doesnt work, go down to v2.4.26.
Both of them contain cciss updates.

Freezes as before.

Doesn't freeze.

Mike, something in v2.4.27 cciss changes are causing Atro's
problems.
Can you take care of it please?

This indicates an interrupt related problem. I've not seen this myself.
Which DL380 do you have, G2, G3, G4?
I'll try to duplicate this in my lab.
