Description Tom Coughlan 2006-04-13 14:05:48 UTC

QLogic has requested this update to their latest version. 

The changes are: 

 Correct swing/emphasis settings on ISP24xx. 
 Increase lun-reset task management function timeout.
 Correct issue where ALUA information is not set.
 Correct FCAL login retry logic for ISP24xx.
 Do *not* default to ZIO mode 6 on ISP24xx.

EMC is planning to certify this version. 

Mike is working on it for U4.

Comment 3 Mike Snitzer 2006-04-17 19:08:26 UTC

Can qlogic ioctl support be made a priority?  HBAAPI ioctls only work with
drivers qlogic makes available on their website.  These ioctls are critical to
vendors that provide HBA monitoring implementations that require HBAAPI.

committed in stream U4 build 35. A test kernel with this patch is available from
