I am about to commit the patch that was successfully tested by the customer on SLES 12, but I'm a bit confused. The upstream patch you referred to is: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=6431f5d7c6025f8b007af06ea090de308f7e6881 [SCSI] megaraid_sas: megaraid_sas driver init fails in kdump kernel But the patch I used is the one you sent by e-mail on May 28th. It is completely different! So what am I supposed to do? Use the patch you sent (and that was tested by the customer) for SLES 11 SP3 and SLES 12? Or was it just for testing and the proper way of fixing the problem would be to backport the upstream commit?
