Identical issues with the AOC-SASLP-MV8 card with 8 Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1.5TB drives using the mvsas driver. Creating a md raid array seems to trigger it nearly instantly, however other loads do not trigger it as fast (if at all, only tested briefly with paralell dd).
Would just like to chime in with a "me too" on this. I've tried both ubuntu 9.10 kernel (2.6.31) and their 10.04 pre-alpha (guess it's 2.6.32-rc8) and mvsas + AOC-SASLP-MV8 is pretty much unusable. If I start md creation it stalls immediately and gets nowhere, last time I tried it md claimed it had written 160 blocks then it stalled (all drive LEDs on the controller is constantly lit).
If I boot without drives and then hot-plug the drives, it immediately oops:es.
Any code/fixes I can try, this is a lab machine so I can easily do whatever needed with it...
