Subject: gdth new set of patches for 2.6.24 stable
Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2008 20:47:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <47B48CAE.2020705@panasas.com> (raw)

Submitted are a new set of patches, that fix lots of problems
with the gdth driver.

It fixes the following problems:
- scan for drives on hosts. (Already in mainline)
- truly fixes the exit/reboot problems but does call flush() before
  reboot.
- fix crash when accessing array with icpcon management application.
- fix crash when doing $ cat /proc/sys/gdth/0.
  This one still has the below WARN_ON in messages (see <gdth_info> below)
  So there is one more thing hiding in there.
- use pci_get_device
  One of the testers requested if we can also put the move to pci_get_device 
  patch with removal of dependency on PCI_LEGACY, to the stable release.

The patches are for and based on Linux-2.6.24. here is the list of patches:
  [PATCH 1/5] gdth: update deprecated pci_find_device
  [PATCH 2/5] gdth: scan for scsi devices
  [PATCH 3/5] gdth: bugfix for the at-exit problems
  [PATCH 4/5] gdth: fix to internal commands execution
  [PATCH 5/5] gdth: remove gdth cooked up command accessors

Please all test and report your findings.

Thanks in advance
Boaz
