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 :-/ lspci: 05:06.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec RAID subsystem HBA (rev 01) Subsystem: Dell PowerEdge 2400,2500,2550,4400 Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 7 BIST result: 00 I/O ports at cc00 [size=256] Memory at fccff000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Expansion ROM at fcd00000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 05:06.1 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec RAID subsystem HBA (rev 01) Subsystem: Dell PowerEdge 2400,2500,2550,4400 Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11 BIST result: 00 I/O ports at c800 [size=256] Memory at fccfe000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Expansion ROM at f8100000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 lspci -n: 05:06.0 0100: 9005:00c5 (rev 01) Subsystem: 1028:00c5 Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 7 BIST result: 00 I/O ports at cc00 [size=256] Memory at fccff000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Expansion ROM at fcd00000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 05:06.1 0100: 9005:00c5 (rev 01) Subsystem: 1028:00c5 Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 11 BIST result: 00 I/O ports at c800 [size=256] Memory at fccfe000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K] Expansion ROM at f8100000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
