Hello Don, Now the patch has been merged to linus tree as: 84676c1f21e8ff54b ("genirq/affinity: assign vectors to all possible CPUs") and it breaks Laurence's machine completely, :-( I just take a look at HPSA's code, and found that reply queue is chosen in the following way in most of code path: if (likely(reply_queue == DEFAULT_REPLY_QUEUE)) cp->ReplyQueue = smp_processor_id() % h->nreply_queues; h->nreply_queues is the msix vector number which is returned from pci_alloc_irq_vectors(), and now some of vectors may be mapped to all offline CPUs, for example, one processor isn't plugged to socket. If I understand correctly, 'cp->ReplyQueue' is aligned to one irq vector, and the command is expected by handled via that irq vector, is it right? If yes, now I guess this way can't work any more if number of online CPUs is >= h->nreply_queues, and you may need to check the cpu affinity of one vector before choosing the reply queue, and block/blk-mq-pci.c may be helpful for you. Thanks, Ming
