| |
See that 2.5.64 came out - good. Time to send the next dev_t patch. Unfortunately 2.5.63 and 2.5.64 do not boot.
A moment ago I looked at what goes wrong, and it turns out that scsi_error is activated [always a bad sign - I have never see it do any good, and often see it crash the machine] and an infinite loop occurs, leaving the machine rather dead.
(Total of 1 commands require eh work; scsi_unjam_host; requesting sense; scsi_eh_done: result 0) - infinite repeat.
Have no time tonight to make a patch, but I suppose the author of the 2.5.63 scsi_error.c changes knows what she did wrong.

[I can make 2.5.64 boot if I make sure no errors ever occur. That means that I must disable get_evpd_page, get_serialnumber, get_cachetype that my old stuff doesnt know about. If I do that all is well.] - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
