The fusion driver was recently flipped to default to MSI enable (previously it had disabled them). Could you boot it with the fusion module parameter mpt_msi_enable=0 if it actually boots that will be a good confirmation that MSI is to blame. > mptbase: ioc0: Initiating recovery This I suspect is because of a lost interrupt. > BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000948 And this one looks to be a second bug: The MSI fault path is actually causing this oops.
