Description of problem:

The be2iscsi scsi eh callouts are busted:
- Sleeps with a spin lock in abort path
- Does not invalidate cmds in chip when doing lun and target reset

The ServerEngines guys also want to bring in support for their newer chip.

Comment 1 Mike Christie 2010-02-11 22:29:35 UTC
This is a new driver to 5.5 so it cannot add a regression. Also ServerEngines is doing all the testing/QE, so it will not invalidate any work that has been done already.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2010-02-11 22:59:11 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.

Comment 7 Andrius Benokraitis 2010-02-17 18:34:30 UTC
Mike, who from ServerEngines are you working with? Can you add them to this bugzilla?

Comment 8 Mike Christie 2010-02-17 20:59:46 UTC
Adding ServerEngines engineer who is sending patches.

Comment 9 Andrius Benokraitis 2010-02-18 15:31:40 UTC
Jay @ SE: When should we expect these patches?

patch for RHEL5.5 Kernel

The be2iscsi patch for RHEL5.5 kernel

Comment 11 Andrius Benokraitis 2010-02-18 16:31:38 UTC
Thanks Jay - I'm assuming this is upstream as well?

Comment 12 Mike Christie 2010-02-18 18:00:18 UTC
Andrius, it was just sent upstream. I reviewed it there. There was a tiny issue with a patch that is not needed for rhel5.5, so I think this is ok. I am going to send this to rh-kernel now.

Comment 17 Jarod Wilson 2010-02-23 20:06:13 UTC

The test team at serverengines has run the following tests on this without
seeing any issues

Login with multiple targets/multiple luns

Block IO w data integrity

File IO w data intergrity

Target offline/online


We have various combinations like
Qeue depth of 1,16.128

Size 512b, 1k , 2k, 4k through 2MB in 512 blocks

For 72+ hours.
