Hi Chengfeng, That’s still a unlikely scenario: /* Check device state for handling interrupt */ if (unlikely(lpfc_intr_state_check(phba))) { /* Check again for link_state with lock held */ spin_lock_irqsave(&phba->hbalock, iflag); if (phba->link_state < LPFC_LINK_DOWN) /* Flush, clear interrupt, and rearm the EQ */ lpfc_sli4_eqcq_flush(phba, fpeq); spin_unlock_irqrestore(&phba->hbalock, iflag); return IRQ_NONE; } In order to enter that if statement and obtain the hbalock, the PCI channel has to be offline or the HBA’s link is in not in an initialized state. If either of those were true, lpfc_cmpl_els_uvem would never get called to begin with.
