Bug#402787: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686: cciss - cannot access to disks on MSA20 enclosure
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686
Version: 2.6.18-7~bpo.1
Severity: important
Kernel boot, module cciss is loaded, internal disks are detected
successfully detected, disks on MSA20 enclosure is detected (is listed
in /proc/driver/cciss/cciss0) but cannot be accessed. Kernel try to read
paritition table, but commands finishes on timeouts:
...
kernel: cciss: cmd f7fc0000 timedout
kernel: Buffer I/O error on device cciss/c1d5, logical block 122088432
kernel: cciss: cmd f7fc0000 timedout
kernel: Buffer I/O error on device cciss/c1d5, logical block 122088432
kernel: cciss: cmd f7fc0000 timedout
kernel: Buffer I/O error on device cciss/c1d5, logical block 122088452
kernel: cciss: cmd f7fc0000 timedout
kernel: Buffer I/O error on device cciss/c1d5, logical block 122088452
...
Tool hpacucli (from HP) in this case not shows MSA20 enclosure as "slot"
and all disks from this enclosure (assigned/unassinged) are invisible.
I try kernels 2.6.18-1-686 and now 2.6.18-3-686, but with equal results.
Tested with controllers SmartArray 6i and 6400.
With kernel 2.6.17 all works fine.
Versions of modules cciss:
2.6.10 (kernel 2.6.17)
3.6.10 (kernel 2.6.18)
