If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 48740fd8f76f0766b52f28e8a9c5b8a9a603036e Author: Mahesh Rajashekhara <Mahesh.Rajashekhara@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jul 8 13:47:36 2022 -0500 scsi: smartpqi: Fix DMA direction for RAID requests [ Upstream commit 69695aeaa6621bc49cdd7a8e5a8d1042461e496e ] Correct a SOP READ and WRITE DMA flags for some requests. This update corrects DMA direction issues with SCSI commands removed from the controller's internal lookup table. Currently, SCSI READ BLOCK LIMITS (0x5) was removed from the controller lookup table and exposed a DMA direction flag issue. SCSI READ BLOCK LIMITS was recently removed from our controller lookup table so the controller uses the respective IU flag field to set the DMA data direction. Since the DMA direction is incorrect the FW never completes the request causing a hang. Some SCSI commands which use SCSI READ BLOCK LIMITS * sg_map * mt -f /dev/stX status After updating controller firmware, users may notice their tape units failing. This patch resolves the issue. Also, the AIO path DMA direction is correct. The DMA direction flag is a day-one bug with no reported BZ.
