I believe my kernel is going into a unrecoverable spin-lock when there is high SCSI load. I'm assuming this because the keyboard lights still function and network still replies to pings. In addition the 'st' driver returns with unrecoverable errors when trying to tar to tape. This usually occurs after a few hundred megabytes have been pushed through a device. My setup is : - AHA-29160N controller - Internal 50 PIN / SCSI-2 port in use - See below for connected drives I tested the following kernels and they display similar behavior: - v2.4.9 - v2.4.18 - v2.4.18 with updated 7XXX driver - v2.4.19-pre10 Any insight is appreciated. - Nick DETAILS: Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.8 Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: aic7892: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Vendor: IBM Model: DNES-318350 Rev: SAH0 Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03 Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Vendor: IBM Model: DCAS-34330 Rev: S65A Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Vendor: PLEXTOR Model: CD-R PX-W124TS Rev: 1.07 Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Jun 19 01:25:15 bombay kernel: scsi0:A:0:0: Tagged Queuing enabled.
