Hey Bjorn, Sorry for the slow reply I was on vacation last week and have been playing catch up on my email. We were unable to recreate your failure here locally so I have some additional questions. First off you mentioned it was failing as far back as v3.9, was it ever working for you? If so bisecting would be really helpful as I mentioned we have been unable to cause the failure in house. If not could you see if the problem still occurs without the external Magma PCIe expansion chassis, this is of course assuming that you can plug the X540 into your system without it. One other note we are in the process of testing several patch (in house) that touch on the code you are seeing the error in. I can't say they would have any effect on what you are seeing, since I'm not sure what that is, but may be worth testing once they get upstream.
