Comment 4 Jiri Skrabal 2009-06-24 12:34:32 UTC
Closing based on following statement:
>>> Ok, keep in mind there was some history on this.  The reason this
>>> originally had the 5.3.z flag is because that's what a prod support
>>> customer wanted, however Andy said no, so we went with the hotfix
>>> packages on it.  The 5.3.z flag was never removed and then someone
>>> asked again if we were going to do it and Andy said, only if you
>>> isolate a smaller set of patches for 5.3.z.  So, Flavio did that (I
>>> think ... some confusion here) and the latest plan was to push those
>>> into the next 5.3.z.  The original requestees have gone away, which
>>> made your customer the biggest driving factor behind this request.
>>> All that aside, do you think we should drop this request and do a
>>> kbase article instead (indicating that TSO needs disabled)?

I tried my testing kernel and issue seems to be solved.
Joe, could you confirm this also?

Comment 14 Joe T 2009-07-10 17:50:27 UTC
Ivan:
Sorry, yes, haven't seen any issues w/ this kernel. We ran 72+ hours of traffic "stress" and no issues were seen.
