Ah, I didn’t see that [1] yet. Also I can’t find the original message, and a
way to reply to that thread. Therefore, here is my reply.

> Can you try the patches listed there?

I tried some of these already without success.

b5b6e8c8d3b4 scsi: virtio_scsi: fix IO hang caused by automatic irq vector affinity
2f31115e940c scsi: core: introduce force_blk_mq
adbe552349f2 scsi: megaraid_sas: fix selection of reply queue

The commit above is already in v4.14.56.

8b834bff1b73 scsi: hpsa: fix selection of reply queue

The problem persists.

The problem also persists with the state below.

3528f73a4e5d scsi: core: introduce force_blk_mq
16dc4d8215f3 scsi: hpsa: fix selection of reply queue
f0a7ab12232d scsi: virtio_scsi: fix IO hang caused by automatic irq vector affinity
6aba81b5a2f5 genirq/affinity: Don't return with empty affinity masks on error
1aa1166eface (tag: v4.14.62, stable/linux-4.14.y) Linux 4.14.62

So, some more commits are necessary.


Kind regards,

Paul
