From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 4.0) Description of problem: Hello, We use Dell PowerEdge 4600. Sometimes during the start of Linux Redhat AS 2.1 hardware monitor shows errors: E13F4 PCI PARITY E13F5 PCI SYSTEM I have been advised by Dell technical support that cause of the problem is AIC- 7xxx. In order to fix it you have to install fix that available at: http://people.freebsd.org/~gibbs/linux/ Unfortunately, I was not able to install it under kernel 2.4.9-e.12smp because of image abscence. Could you please incorparete it in the kernel? Thanks a lot, Boris Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. It is intermitten problem that occurs usually on boot time of Linux 2. 3. Additional info:
Hi Larry, Just a little note. When Linux initializes drivers for SCSI messages (E13F4, E13F5) appear on hardware monitor. At same time /var/log/messages shows: kernel: SCSI subsystem driver. Revision: 1.00 kernel: Uhhuh. NMI received. Dazed and confused, but trying to continue kernel: Uhhuh. NMI received. Dazed and confused, but trying to continue kernel: You probably have a hardware problem with your RAM chips kernel: Uhhuh. NMI received. Dazed and confused, but trying to continue kernel: You probably have a hardware problem with your RAM chips kernel: You probably have a hardware problem with your RAM chips kernel: (scsi0) <Adaptec AIC-7890/1 Ultra2 SCSI host adapter> found at PCI 0/6/0 kernel: (scsi0) Wide Channel, SCSI ID=7, 32/255 SCBs kernel: (scsi0) Downloading sequencer code... 398 instructions downloaded kernel: scsi0 : Adaptec AHA274x/284x/294x (EISA/VLB/PCI-Fast SCSI) 5.2.5/5.2.0 kernel: <Adaptec AIC-7890/1 Ultra 2 SCSI host adapter> kernel: blk: queue c4f30e18, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff) Nothing has connected to this adapter :o( When this problem arise the rest of SCSI adapters work much slower. The only solution is just total power shutdown for the computer, crossing fingers, knocking the wood and hoping to sneak around the problem. ;o) Hope it will help. Thanks, Boris
Hi guys, Today I restarted the system under latest available kernel (2.4.9-e.24smp) and problem appeared again :o( Best regards, Boris
Hello, It still exists under kernel 2.4.9-e25smp :o( Regards, Boris
Kernel 2.4.9-e.34 or later should have the fix.
Fixed in 2.4.9-e.34 and newer. Closing.
