This patch is prepared on top of scsi-rc-fixes pulled today, and 3 fnic patches that are part of Robert's set of 20 patches emailed on scsi-ml today. Its a bug fix that triggers when forcing Legacy interrupts using pci=nomsi option. Please include for 2.6.32-rc. --------------- The OS interrupt vectors were getting allocated before the interrupt resources were mapped from hardware. For Legacy interrupts, since they are shared with other devices, as soon as an interrupt is registered with the OS, it can fire while the fnic isr resource is still unmapped. This can cause crash because of access to unmapped resources. For MSIX and MSI, since interrupts are not shared with other devices, this problem didnt happen, because the interrupt is enabled as the last step before returning from _probe. For Legacy however, since the interrupt is shared, the handler can be called as soon as it is registered. Solution is to register interrupt handlers with OS as last step before enabling device interrupts.
