Hello Robert,

Thanks for the update.  Btw, if the original /var/log/messages
reproduction logs for iser-target are still handy, I'm happy to have
a look to confirm.  Feel free to send them along here, or off-list if
necessary.

For further reference, you can also enable Linux kernel crash dump
(LKCD) at build time using CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y, so it's possible to
manually generate a vmcore dumpfile of the running system via 'echo c
> /proc/sysrq-trigger', once the bug occurs.

http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/CRASH_DUMP.html

Note in order to fully debug within this in a LKCD environment, it
requires the vmcore dump from /var/crash/, unstripped vmlinux,
target_core_mod, iscsi_target_mod and ib_isert modules matching the
specific particular x86_64 build setup of the running system.

Also, can you share a bit more about the details of your particular
iser-target + backend setup..?
