Description Pierre Fumery 2004-11-09 10:46:15 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7)
Gecko/20040514

Description of problem:
The black list included  in the various distributions includes the
following  entry for the Chaparral FR1422 disk sub-system :

    {"CNSi", "JSS224", "*", BLIST_SPARSELUN},               // Chaparral
FR1422

This entry is not correct and should be :

   {"CNSi", "JFS224", "*", BLIST_SPARSELUN},               // Chaparral
FR1422

Could it be fixed in the AS 2.1 Update 6 and AS 3 Update 4 G.A. versions ?

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-source-2.4.21-21.EL

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. To install RHEL3-U4 or RHEL2.1-U6 releases.
2. To check the /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c file,
searching for Chaparral FR1422

    

Actual Results:  {"CNSi", "JSS224", "*", BLIST_SPARSELUN},           
   // Chaparral FR1422

Expected Results:  {"CNSi", "JFS224", "*", BLIST_SPARSELUN},         
     // Chaparral FR1422

Additional info:

This is a typo which prevents to get right information. This is a no
risk fix that could be easily fixed for the G.A. delivery.

Comment 1 Ernie Petrides 2004-11-09 20:11:26 UTC
RHEL3 U4 is already closed.


Comment 2 Susan Denham 2004-11-09 21:35:54 UTC
Pierre:  I'm sorry, but I've checked with kernel engineering and have
confirmed that this would require a kernel respin, which isn't planned
for RHEL 3 U4.  We will add this to the U5 list.  Please open an Issue
Tracker for this and Frank will have it fixed.  Thanks.

Comment 5 Ernie Petrides 2004-11-11 02:33:45 UTC
A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U4
patch pool this evening (in kernel version 2.4.21-24.EL).

Comment 8 Ernie Petrides 2004-12-13 21:47:07 UTC
This bug was inappropriately listed in the above 2.1 Errata (listed above),
and thus should not have yet been closed.  I'm reverting it to MODIFIED
state until the RHEL3 Erratum is released (which should be in a week).


Comment 9 Bastien Nocera 2004-12-15 11:53:24 UTC
Ernie, it was correctly filed, as this bug was hitting both 2.1 and 3.

Comment 10 Ernie Petrides 2004-12-15 22:24:20 UTC
Hi, Bastien.  A bug can only be filed against a single version
(2.1, 3, 4) of a RHEL kernel because there are different CVS
trees, different kernel maintainers, different blocker lists,
and different advisories in the Errata System.  When you enter
a single bug with the hope of 2 versions being fixed, you risk
that it will get fixed in one version and then forgotten about.

So, in the future, please file a separate bugzilla for each kernel
(major) kernel version that exhibits the problem.  Thanks.

Cheers.  -ernie
