Filled a bugzilla entry, no answer for 3 days, and at same time it is clear regression. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14242 While on 2.6.30.5 MPT SAS controller worked fine, on 2.6.31 it fails on heavy operations and start spitting errors to dmesg (they vary). Failsystems also stopped, and i am unable to reboot box properly (only over sysrq or hardreset). x86, Sun Fire X4100, 8 GB RAM, PAE kernel enabled, module loaded with default options I upgrade BIOS, LSI controller BIOS to latest version, it didn't fix the bug. I cannot do bisection, because this is loaded server and semi-embedded system. But i can do tests of patches or reverse specific commits, if you point me to exact commit. http://www.nuclearcat.com/files/dmesg.ok from 2.6.30.5 kernel http://www.nuclearcat.com/files/dmesg.fail from 2.6.31.1 kernel http://www.nuclearcat.com/files/config.gz config from 2.6.31.1 kernel Let me know if you need any additional information. Additionally - i have few other similar units (X4100), but with less amount of RAM (4GB),HDD's(2 only), less load (but still enough heavy at some moments) working ok.
