That means that the function copy_to_user in the driver failed and the ioctl
returned EFAULT. Usually programs can cope with that, but it could mean that

I'm not sure with MegaCli, what I meant here is the Dell management sw 'Open
Manage', so if you can check if this sw can collect info from  megaraid driver.
