Please find the kernel log attached. I was using the open-iscsi initiator on kernel 2.6.25.6 with a chelsio iSCSI target and the crash happened on the initiator machine. connection5:0: ping timeout of 5 secs expired, last rx 4309640121, last ping 4309645121, now 4309650121 connection5:0: detected conn error (1011)
This happens when we cannot reach the target for the noop timout and interval seconds, which can happen if a cable is unplugged or the network is not reach able or is dropping packets.

However, once it happens we should not report it again like is done here. There is something weird there. Do you have the iscsid output? Between these two reports of pings timing out is there any messages from iscsid about reconnecting?
connection5:0: detected conn error (1011) connection5:0: detected conn error (1011) session5: host reset succeeded
And we should not get here. The iscsi driver's scsi command timeout handler should prevent the command from firing the scsi eh, because in this case we think it is a transport problem.
What version of the iscsi tools are you using? Are they from a distro or open-iscsi.org?
Are you running with the iscsi kernel modules from 2.6.25.6, or are you using the iscsi modules from the open-iscsi.org website that come with the tarball?
Is the kernel a unmodified 2.6.25.6 or does it have some distro patches or patches that you have created?
INFO: task fdisk:5226 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
I think you get this message and what follows, is a result of the above problem. While the iscsi initiator is trying to reconnect, IO is queued by the scsi layer so fdisk is going to be waiting around until we recover or give up.
