Description Bastien Nocera 2005-06-29 11:01:10 UTC

Description of problem:
Errors on boot when using the lpfc driver on RHEL4

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.9-11.EL

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot a machine with an LP7000
2. Watch the error messages
Emulex LightPulse Fibre Channel SCSI driver 8.0.16.6_x2
ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:03:01.0[A] -> GSI 48 (level, low) -> IRQ 52

I'll get getting information about the FC hub used shortly.
The same configuration works fine under RHEL3 U5, using the builtin 7.1.14
driver instead of the 8.0.16.6_x2 one.

Comment 1 Tom Coughlan 2005-06-29 16:10:54 UTC

Please check to see if you have the latest Emulex firmware.

Comment 2 Tom Coughlan 2005-09-19 18:57:06 UTC

Does the problem still occur with RHEL 4 U2 (where there is a driver update)? 

Also, still waiting for confirmation that they have the latest firmware.

Comment 3 James Smart 2005-09-21 22:16:39 UTC

This fits the description of out of date firmware on the card.

We have one other fix that applied to this error. However, the error did not
replicate on the 8.0.16.17 driver in testing.  Please attempt to update the
firmware to the latest and rerun. If that is still failing, contact me.

This has been NEEDINFO for over six months. Closing. Please test with U3, and
the latest Emulex firmware.
