           Summary: aacraid driver stalls on high-load SMP machines
           Product: SCSI Drivers
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: 2.6.24
          Platform: All

          Priority: P1
         Component: AACRAID
        AssignedTo: scsi_drivers-aacraid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: smurf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx


Latest working kernel version: unknown
Earliest failing kernel version: probably forever
Distribution: Ubuntu hardy
Hardware Environment: Dell PowerEdge 2650

Problem Description:

Under load, this happens rather often:

SCSI hang ?

SCSI hang ?

Access to the storage thus stalls for ten seconds or so.

I have successfully worked around the problem by using "schedtool -a 1
pid-of-basically-everything", so it seems to be an SMP-related problem.

However, one CPU is _somewhat_ slower than four, which is quite noticeable, so
we'd like to get this handled somehow :-/
