Subject: ips init / kdump
Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2005 10:44:34 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43131F52.2040307@adaptec.com> (raw)

This patch, applied to ips version 7.12.02 in the 2.6.13 kernel, fixes an
initialization bug found with kdump.

If I/O is active on the adapter, and an unexpected interrupt is pending 
during initialization, the driver blows it's brains out. Since the driver
didn't initiate the I/O, the data in it's internal tables will contain NULL
pointers.

When this condition is detected, a "flush cache and reset" is performed. 
The flush cache allows any pending "lazy writes" that the adapter is 
processing to complete ( a "must have" for a RAID adapter ) and the reset
puts the adapter back into a known, good state.
