Unfortunately it turned out I was just 'lucky' to run into this bug the first few times. When I later on tried to reproduce this specific issue, I tried 20 times and couldn't, even without any patch :( So testing especially the 2nd patch turnes out to be a bit difficult (can't be verified by printk). I now also mostly only have remotely access to the test hardware and can't reset this system remotely, so testing has become a bit difficult :( Tomorrow will be in the lab again and try to test again. Thanks for your help and patience, Bernd -- 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
