Subject: [PATCH 0/6] hpsa: Feb 15, 2011 updates
Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 15:32:42 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110215212856.5407.3438.stgit@beardog.cce.hp.com> (raw)

The following series fixes a problem that commands were unintentionally
re-ordered within the driver, and another problem that the hpsa_simple_mode
module paramter didn't actually work.  It adds a host attribute in /sys to
know which mode (simple or performant) the controller is in.  It informs the
controller that we're only using 32-bit tags (needed for a couple of new
controllers to work properly).  Finally, we shouldn't proceed with kdumping
if a controller cannot be reset, as there may be outstanding commands which
interfere with kdump's i/o.
