Hi
(I'm not subscribed to this list, so please cc me)
I tried to install gentoo linux on a areca ARC-1210 raid controller, but
I'm having serious issues. The problem start on more heavy I/O with:
arcmsr6: abort device command of scsi id = 0 lun = 0
From this point, the system has serious issues. With xfs for example,
the following happens:
arcmsr6: abort device command of scsi id = 0 lun = 0
This is an abort, likely triggered by a timeout.
sd 6:0:0:0: [sda] Result: hostbyte=DID_OK
driverbyte=DRIVER_TIMEOUT,SUGGEST_OK
This looks very suggestive, nothing in the arcmsr ... or indeed any
driver ever sets DRIVER_TIMEOUT ... it looks like a mangled result code
somehow. It definitely lead to the resulting failure.
Cc:ing Areca people to see if they have any idea.

I am QUITE sure the .config as shown did not create the kernel messages
as shown . One does have to enable the 'CONFIG_FUSION' in order to use it .
