Description Prarit Bhargava 2008-12-05 19:58:47 UTC
Description of problem:

xw9400 and xw9300 systems blacklisted for PCI Domain support.  This was done at a time when PCI Domain support was not enabled in RHEL5 and these systems did not boot because of the extra domain.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): -125.el5


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot
2. lspci -D
3.
  
Actual results: lspci -D output shows single domain.


Expected results: lspci -D output should show two.


Additional info: Noticed by tcamuso, onsite engineer for HP.

RHEL5 fix for this issue

Comment 2 Tony Camuso 2008-12-10 11:15:10 UTC
Prarit tested his PCI domain patch on these systems by removing them from the blacklist. 

However, HP feels that we are too close to the end of the 5.3 cycle to make this change and get adequate test exposure before the GA date, so we would like to defer the fix to 5.4.

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2009-01-27 20:40:03 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release.  Product Management has requested
further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed
products.  This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update
release.

Output for lspci -D on the -129 kernel 

Attached a text file with the output after running lspci -D on the 2.6.18-129 kernel.  I do not see a difference in the text file 128kernel.txt when running a diff againest the 129kernel.txt file.  Is this expected behavior?

This wasn't committed to a kernel until -130.el5 .

I'm assuming this is now fixed since I was able to boot with the -130 kernel with AHCI Bus Segmentation enabled.

Comment 9 Tony Camuso 2009-02-09 14:05:54 UTC
Yes, I believe it is fixed and this BZ can be closed.
