This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled [SCSI] megaraid_sas: megaraid_sas driver init fails in kdump kernel to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.7. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 7476d8b514c3371fb142d9a1944ea221d88c8f27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Sumit.Saxena@lsi.com" <Sumit.Saxena@lsi.com> Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2013 02:26:05 +0530 Subject: [SCSI] megaraid_sas: megaraid_sas driver init fails in kdump kernel commit 6431f5d7c6025f8b007af06ea090de308f7e6881 upstream. Problem: When Hardware IOMMU is on, megaraid_sas driver initialization fails in kdump kernel with LSI MegaRAID controller(device id-0x73). Actually this issue needs fix in firmware, but for firmware running in field, this driver fix is proposed to resolve the issue. At firmware initialization time, if firmware does not come to ready state, driver will reset the adapter and retry for firmware transition to ready state unconditionally(not only executed for kdump kernel).
