LTC Owner is: jan.glauber.com LTC Originator is: jan.glauber.com Description: lcs: Unpredictable results after cable pull/plug-in. Symptom: Device not operational anymore after cable pull/plug-in. Unpredictable results occured, e.g. kernel panic using cards of type QD8F. Problem: Stoplan command and delete multicast address command were not proper recognized by OSA card under heavy network workload. Channel/device error checks missing in interrupt handler. Solution: Missing error checks in interrupt handler added. LCS device recovery improved. Schedule recovery on card's problems or cable plug-in.
