(1000:0409) This card also uses the megaraid_mbox driver. Boots fine, but crashes consistently when running badblocks -wsv over an array, usually within an hour. Sometimes it will dump to console and flash the keyboard lights, sometimes it just hangs. Server is running nothing else at the moment beyond the basics, and the LSI currently has no filesystems. I have no reason to suspect the card or the server as both were running Win2003 server for the last 5 - 6 years without any issues beyond the fact Windows was running on it :) Ubuntu 12.04 i386 server, same results with Ubuntu kernel 3.5.0-25 and latest compiled kernel 3.8.3. If there is any interest here I can post the kernel dump, hardware details, etc. In a nutshell it's a single hyperthread P4 Xeon 2.4GHz on an Intel PCI-X server board with one jigglybyte of DDR1 ECC. LSI card is running four 200GB SATA drives in a RAID5, configured with Write Through caching and DirectIO, 128MB of cache, no backup battery. I have tried various kernel flags to no avail but seemed to have some success when I turned off all the performance enhancing settings in the LSI BIOS. (Multiple PCI delayed transactions, command queuing, HDD write caching) It got 4 - 5 hours through badblocks without crashing but I stopped it as it was taking forever. Could well have been just a result of decreased load though. Turning hyperthread on/off makes no difference. Currently testing various different settings in the LSI BIOS but it's slow going. Any help would be appreciated here. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- 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
