When removing this extra option, it compiles with vanilla 2.6.32 just
fine. I crashes the same way as the ubuntu kernel when hot-plugging a
disk as well (this time I did it without gdm/x running and it oopses,
but unfortunately the highest part of the oops scrolled off). It's 100%
reproducible anyway, so basically the controller is a no-go in 2.6.31.6
and 2.6.32 both vanilla and ubuntu versions, both without and including
the nov09 mvsas patch (at least the original version of the patch as
posted). Different failure scenarios though... With the stock kernel the
controller seems to get stuck in writing and nothing more happens but at
least the machine doesn't crash and burn like it does with the
mvsas-patch.
Would it make sense for me to log this problem in bugzilla? There seems to
be a similar issue with equal hw:
<http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14534>
did these fixes ever go upstream? Are they scheduled to go into the
stable rebuilds of 2.6.32 ? The patches mentioned in there, are these the
ones I already tried that didn't solve my problem?
