    Hi
I've download the latest bit:
linux-2.4.20-pa10.tar.gz

I've done:
tar xzf
cd linux
make oldconfig
make dep
make vmlinux (no modules at all)
reboot on this new kernel, and it hanging now:
scsi1 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512
scsi2 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512
scsi3 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512
blk: queue 000000004fc58440, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff)

nothing more, it stay here forever.......

It is an A500 in SMP/64.

A normal boot with 2.4.19
scsi1 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512
scsi2 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512
scsi3 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512
  Vendor: SEAGATE   Model: ST31230N          Rev: HP05
  Type:   Direct-Access                      ANSI SCSI revision: 02
  Vendor: SEAGATE   Model: ST318404LC        Rev: HP04

It seems that scsi detection has some trouble.

Thanks.

Bruno, can you try the sym2 driver and let us know how it goes?

CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_2=y
CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_DMA_ADDRESSING_MODE=0
CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS=16
CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX_MAX_TAGS=64

there was a similar problem with the sym2 driver that was fixed
recently.

alternatively, please try turning on CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK in your
kernel and try running the sym53c8xx driver and see if that helps
identify the problem...

Nothing more.........
I'll try with spinlock debug now.

    Hi
I didn't find anything new about this pb. It is hanging in the scan of
the bus while in scan_scsis_single(). I've tried to recompile 2.4.19-pa20
and it works fine ???? So what change beetween 2.4.19 and 2.4.20 in this
area ?

    thanks.
